Working with Laura Cook—and her husband and partner, Adam Wolfe—was an absolute gift!
From the very first day, they brought warmth, professionalism, and heart to every part of the process. Selling my co-op apartment was not an easy journey; there were emotional moments and unexpected challenges along the way. But through it all, Laura and Adam were steady, patient, and endlessly supportive.
Laura is everything one could hope for in a realtor and more—creative, dedicated, insightful, and deeply kind. She combines expertise and intuition in a way that made me feel both protected and understood. She never rushed me, always listened, and somehow managed to make even the most stressful moments feel manageable.
Adam was the quiet strength behind it all—calm, thoughtful, and always ready to lend a helping hand. Together, they make an extraordinary team who genuinely care about the people they work with, not just the sale.
Because of their outstanding expertise, hard work and compassion, my apartment sold successfully, and I am moving forward with peace of mind and gratitude. Laura and Adam didn’t just guide a transaction—they supported me through a very challenging process with wisdom, patience, generosity and genuine care. I will never forget their dedication and the comfort they brought along the way.
If you are selling or buying a home, you won’t find two people more genuine, committed, and caring than Laura Cook and Adam Wolfe. They go above and beyond in every way, and I will always be thankful for them!!
I’m not just going to tell you how great it is to work with Laura and Adam in this review, but I’ll quickly go over the entire experience so that you know how good they are at their jobs.
When our landlord increased our rent by a significant amount, we decided that we should at least try to find a condo we could buy, but we simply didn’t have much time before deciding to accept or decline the lease renewal.
Our previous agent from another state recommended Laura and Adam to us, so I texted them. Laura was literally on the phone with us even at 8pm the same day. She acknowledged our tight timeframe, quickly adjusted her schedule and met with us the next morning to tour the first option we found. In the next week or so, we met a couple more times to see more places and fell in love with the last place we saw.
Laura and Adam then scheduled an inspection with the sponsor and the inspector we specifically wanted to work with. Both Laura and Adam showed up to the inspection as well, they were very detail oriented and even found additional things we should get the sponsor to fix. When it was the offer time, they strategized with us and our attorney on concessions and the price. After a couple times of back and forth, our offer was accepted and we got an amazing deal, much much better than what we expected!
Between that and the closing, they handled every single communication with the seller, our attorney, and us. They were on top of everything and kept us updated throughout the process, ensuring everything went smoothly!
Exceptional Service and Outstanding Support from Laura Cook and the LC/NYC Team!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Laura Cook and the LC/NYC team of Keller Williams NYC to sell my condo, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From staging to closing, Laura and her team were professional, extremely knowledgeable, and fully committed to achieving the best outcome for me.
Laura went above and beyond to ensure my condo was market-ready. She not only brought in items to add the perfect finishing touches to the staging but also helped me find a great painter to freshen up the space. Her attention to detail and marketing expertise were so effective that my condo was even featured in the New York Times!
Throughout the process, Laura and the LC/NYC team provided exceptional support. Their expertise and network were invaluable, including recommending an excellent lawyer who made the closing process seamless. Laura’s clear communication, thoughtful advice, and genuine care made what could have been a stressful process feel effortless.
Beyond her incredible professionalism, Laura is a wonderful person. By the end of the process, we had become friends, and I’m so grateful to have worked with someone so kind and supportive.
If you’re looking to buy or sell property in NYC, I can’t recommend Laura Cook and the LC/NYC team of Keller Williams NYC highly enough. They are true professionals and an absolute pleasure to work with!
Laura, Adam, and their team are the definition of professional and reliable. I manage a number of rental properties across the city and I know I can always count on Laura to rent and move apartments quickly. Laura also makes sure to keep her clients up to date on all policy changes to ensure our business practices reflect and adhere to the strictest standards. I’ve worked with many real estate agents and keep coming back to Laura not just because I know she will represent our buildings well but will also ensure every potential tenant will be treated in a respectful and professional manner.
My wife and I have worked with Laura Cook and Adam Wolfe on three (three!) transactions and there’s a reason we’ve kept coming back. They handled the purchase of our first apartment, then led us through the sale of that unit and the purchase of another when our family outgrew the old space. Laura and Adam are courteous, straightforward, friendly and infinitely patient people. The latter is particularly important, in my view, given how stressful it is to buy and sell a home. They helped us navigate choppy rate environments, DOB permits, and lord knows how many other potential impediments and we’re grateful they were there to back us up. I can’t recommend them more highly.
I’ve now sold two apartments with Laura Cook & Adam Wolfe, and both experiences were outstanding. Their professionalism, market knowledge, and communication made the process smooth and stress-free. They consistently delivered great results and were always attentive and reliable. I highly recommend Laura & Adam—truly one of the best in the business!
I had the BEST experience working with Laura Cook as I closed on my first apartment purchase in NYC. I knew from day 1 that Laura was the person I wanted to work with given her experience, expertise and genuine interest in wanting to help and support me along this journey. She knew all of the right questions to ask on my behalf and went above and beyond to make my experience as seamless as possible. I never had to worry because she explained everything step by step, was always thinking ahead and took me through the process with patience and detail. Thank you Laura and Adam for making this such a pleasant and exciting experience for me!
Working with Adam and Laura (LC|NYC Team) was truly outstanding from start to finish. I had the rare situation of buying and selling almost simultaneously, and they navigated both transactions seamlessly in the midst of two complicated coop transactions. They helped me secure approval for my co-op purchase — guiding me through every detail of the board application, anticipating what the board would want to see, and making the process feel calm and manageable. Once I went into contract on my purchase, they immediately shifted gears and began preparing my current apartment for the market.
Their approach was thoughtful and strategic. They staged my home by using my own furniture and supplemented it with pieces from their stager JP of John Patrick Designs to pull the space together beautifully without requiring a full staging investment. The marketing that followed — photos, video, listing copy, and agent outreach — was top-tier. Thanks to their pricing strategy, preparation, and marketing, my apartment went into contract quickly and sold at full asking price, so I didn’t have to carry two properties for more than a handful of weeks!
Throughout the entire process, Adam and Laura were collaborative, incredibly hard-working, and always one step ahead. Their communication was proactive and clear, and I always felt like I had true partners who cared about my outcome. I am now happily settled in my new home, and I am so grateful to them for making what could have been a stressful double-transaction feel smooth and successful. I recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone buying or selling in NYC.
I met Laura at an open house for one of her Manhattan listings in 2023 when I was just starting to look for a home to purchase. We connected right away, and I decided to work with her as my NYC real estate agent to find my co-op apartment. From the start she was attentive to my needs and was with me every step of the way. Working with her was fun and easy, and she was extremely knowledgeable about the New York City co-op buying process. In no time, we found a great Upper West Side apartment. She negotiated money off the asking price and worked hard to make sure everything went smoothly. I became the proud owner of a wonderful NYC home and was grateful to Laura and her team for helping me through the purchase.
Fast forward to 2025, when it came time to sell my apartment, I knew I wanted to work with Laura and her team again. They helped me prepare and stage the apartment beautifully with their stager, JP of John Patrick Designs, whose work made the place shine and stand out online. Thanks to their marketing and guidance, the listing generated strong buyer interest right away and quickly brought in an offer. They ultimately sold my Manhattan apartment for a great price. I couldn’t be happier with both experiences and highly recommend Laura Cook, Adam Wolfe, and the LC | NYC Team to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in New York City.
Laura is the best of the best. She is dedicated, passionate, knowledgeable, supportive, caring, understanding, persistent, organized, and relentlessly committed to doing the best for her clients. It’s so easy to collaborate with Laura and her team, and I have a comforting sense of trust that I know she’s going to get done what needs to get done. Laura has helped me rent out my condo twice, and despite rentals not being the main focus of her personal work, she still brings the same level of care and diligence despite having much higher value listings.
If you are looking for a real estate broker in NYC who will successfully partner with you every step of the way, look no further than Laura Cook. Having interviewed 5 other brokers, Laura was clearly the top choice from the beginning. She overdelivered throughout the whole process. She took the time to measure our apartment at our first meeting, then carefully walked us through the comps in explaining her pricing strategy and demonstrated her market expertise. She collaborated on the apartment prep, providing excellent options with contractors, painters, even window washers. We made the choice to stage the apartment, and she managed the whole process, being mindful of budget and return on investment. The narrated video tour of the apartment elevated her marketing above other brokers, and she shared a spreadsheet with notes on each potential buyer who viewed the apartment with detailed next steps. She helped us navigate through multiple offers, and worked closely with our attorney to get the property into contract in a timely manner. Her expertise and negotiation skills really shined as we navigated challenges with our co-op and buyer. Throughout the process, she made it a point to make herself available and proactively communicated every step of the way. We could not be any happier with the work Laura and her team did on our behalf. I highly recommend you choose Laura to sell your apartment. Like me, you will be extremely happy that you did
Laura Cook Real Estate provided a remarkable experience for us. Laura personally handled both the sale of my NYC Condo and purchase of NYC Coop- at the same time! She is hard-working beyond compare, optimistic through complex transactions and never stops until she understands everything about ‘The Deal.’ She was professional in getting parties together that were challenging to work with. Did I mention fun? I would recommend her to anyone on either side of the buy/sell deal.
