About
Compass brokers Julie Cohen and Nick Ferrone are Cobble Hill neighbors - who literally live across the street from one another and are proud to call Brooklyn their home. As long-time New Yorkers, their team was formed over a shared passion for the area’s vibrant culture and community. Their focus on building mutually rewarding relationships takes the client experience to the next level. Julie and Nick “know” everyone in town, which means they always have the scoop on anything you need. Together, with their strong worth ethic and out-of-the-box thinking, they are an unrivaled down-to-earth duo.
Known affectionately as the "Mayor" of Cobble Hill, Julie is a true connector who consistently exceeds expectations in negotiating deals. Both clients and colleagues appreciate Julie’s personable, outgoing, and candid nature. With an eye for both design and photography, she ensures properties are beautifully staged and marketed. Julie’s extensive experience with renovations also provides her clients with access to a wide range of experts who can help realize their dream of a perfect home. Smart, amiable, and informative, Nick has an insider’s respect for value, a deep appreciation for each neighborhood’s attributes, and the negotiating skills to match his many repeat buyers and sellers with uniquely desirable properties. An accomplished home cook and amateur historian who also raised his family in Brooklyn, Nick knows how to market a townhouse with a great kitchen, a choice loft nearest the best dog run, or a condo on an historic landmarked street.
Together, Julie and Nick have closed hundreds of millions of dollars in New York City real estate throughout their combined 43+ year career. The Cohen | Ferrone Team will become your trusted advisor on all things Brooklyn whether you are buying, selling, or renting. More often than not, it’s their thoughtful, collaborative approach that helps their clients through any process.
Testimonials
"Julie has rented out my apartment twice now – both times with grace and efficiency. She is an excellent judge of character, twice finding responsible tenants willing and able to survive a tedious application process. Julie’s no-nonsense style is refreshing – and it works. She astutely anticipated my questions, kept me informed and engaged – while letting me get on with my “day-job”. Her quick work and ability to gain people’s confidence has made it easy for me to be a landlord, something I never thought I would be."
Sarah Renner, Brooklyn Heights"Julie Cohen is the Obi-Wan Kinobi of Brooklyn Real Estate - seriously. I lived in Brooklyn for fifteen years before heading west. I met Julie when I bought my condo and I just knew immediately that I could always trust her. She is still my broker - and as a property owner operating a rental property from a couple thousand miles away - there is simply no better person than Julie Cohen. I have absolute confidence and comfort with her - and that makes the entire endeavor so much more manageable. She doesn't wear a hooded robe or wield a light saber, but she's pretty amazing at helping her clients navigate through the Brooklyn real estate market."
Todd Hedgpeth, Boerum Hill"After a long search, just when I lost all hope in finding the right house for us in Brooklyn, I had the incredible good luck of meeting Julie through a friend of mine. She miraculously found the perfect place right away and worked with great energy and professionalism until the deal was closed. I am forever grateful!"
