What This Is
Townhouse Project Management
Getting a Brooklyn brownstone from current condition to listing-ready is a project — and managing it well requires knowing what work needs to happen, in what sequence, at what cost, and what the end result needs to look like to compete at your price point.
I handle this through two businesses alongside my real estate practice: Anytime Super, which manages property turnovers and listing preparation, and Brownstone Refresh, which handles exterior cleaning, facade work, and renovation. Combined with 20+ years of selling Brooklyn brownstones, that gives me a perspective on pre-sale project management that most agents don't have.
This isn't about doing the cheapest possible job before listing. It's about doing the right work — the improvements that show up in the sale price — and not doing the work that buyers will redo anyway.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Brooklyn townhouse project management?
The coordination and oversight of pre-sale renovation, cleaning, turnover, and preparation work — getting a brownstone from current condition to listing-ready, on time and within budget. I handle this through Anytime Super and Brownstone Refresh alongside my real estate practice.
What is Anytime Super?
Anytime Super is a property turnover and listing preparation service I run alongside my real estate practice. It handles cleaning, minor repairs, touch-up work, and getting properties to listing-ready condition — particularly after tenant vacancies or for estate sale properties.
What is Brownstone Refresh?
Brownstone Refresh is an exterior cleaning and renovation service focused on Brooklyn brownstones — facade cleaning, pressure washing, pointing assessment, stoop repair, and exterior painting. The exterior work that makes a real difference to buyer first impressions.
Do I need project management before listing?
Not always — but for properties that need work before sale, having someone coordinate the process who understands what the end result needs to look like for buyers is valuable. The consultation helps you understand what level of preparation makes sense for your specific property.
How does project management connect to the sale?
The goal is to maximize the return on time and money invested in preparation. By knowing what buyers in your neighborhood actually pay premiums for, I can direct the work toward improvements that show up in the sale price — and away from work that doesn't.
Do you do this for estate sales and inherited properties?
Yes — estate sales often need the most preparation work and coordination. I work with executors and family members to assess the property, coordinate necessary work, and get it to market efficiently.
