Broker Profile

Paul Maass - pmaass@findnycoffice.com - 212.982.8484 x 27 Paul Maass has been helping businesses find great office spaces while strategically planning for the future for almost 5 years. "A lot of brokers make lofty promises, but I always try to underpromise and overdeliver." Finding a great office space, at the right budget, in the right neighborhood can be very difficult in New York City. Paul makes it easy by handling all of the legwork involved so his clients only have to decide if a space works for them, instead of thinking about how to find and procure their next office. "If a client is running around doing all of the work themselves, then why hire a broker?" asks Paul. "Businesses should find a broker that will simplify the process to they can focus on their business, not on finding office space." Paul Maass will help you find your next office and make the entire process as easy as possible. Background Bachelor of Arts-Purchase College, Purchase, NY Licensed Real Estate Broker-New York State Testimonials "Our experience finding office space, with you as a broker, can only be described as pleasant. I especially appreciate your thorough organization in setting and arranging our appointments…This saved me a tremendous amount of time and money by limiting the time that I had to spend in New York. In fact, the entire process was much speedier than I had ever expected that it would be. Also, at all times I felt that you, as our broker, had our best interest in mind while negotiating our final lease deal. Everything went so incredibly smooth that my New York LAWYER even commented that ‘that was the quickest lease that I have ever negotiated. All parties involved were great to work with.’" Ken Kotarski, Managing Principal, On the Record, Inc. "You far exceeded our expectations in helping us find an office space and execute a lease with terms we are very pleased with. You saved us an enormous amount of anxiety, time and energy, allowing us to focus on our business, instead of searching for office space or looking at spaces that did not fit our needs. You not only ‘listened’, but ‘delivered with a smile.’ Your diligence went far beyond anything we expected and it will be appreciated long into the future (i.e. five years). Comparing you with other realtors was ‘night and day’. Working with you was by far the easiest experience I have ever had working with a realtor. Your knowledge of the New York real estate market gave our firm a competitive edge when looking for a space to fit our needs and later in negotiating the best deal possible. I have already recommended you to others and will certainly not hesitate proactively recommending you to others in the future." Al W. King III, Co-Chief Executive Officer, S.D. Trust Company "I have worked with Paul Maass in two different capacities as a commercial real estate broker, both as a landlord’s agent and also as a tenant broker. The first time I worked with Paul he represented the sub-landlord of a space I was pursuing. Paul worked diligently throughout the Christmas holiday season ensuring that all parties worked together within a nearly-impossible timeframe so that we could take possession prior to the New Year. Recently, Paul has helped me secure another well-below-market sub-lease as my firm has grown, this time working on behalf of my firm. He was attentive to our specific needs and handled much of the legwork in locating the right space. Paul understands our precise space requirements and only showed us spaces that fulfilled our general requests, saving me a tremendous amount of time. Paul also provided me with the resources and contractors necessary to pull the entire project together. I would gladly recommend Paul Maass to any business in need of a new office space." Caroline Vanderlip, CEO, SharedBook Inc. "When I left my old firm to start my own PR firm, a friend referred me to Paul Maass of Winslow & Company to help me find my first office space. Last year, Paul had helped my friend find his fabulous office. He educated me and helped me find a great office in Chelsea, handling the lease negotiation from start to finish while making sure I was getting a fair deal. Paul worked quickly and efficiently and kept in constant communication throughout the entire process, saving me the time and effort of searching for my own office space. I highly recommend Paul Maass to anyone looking for a great new office space." Rob Shuter, Principal, The Shuter Group "Paul has been helpful, dedicated and instrumental in assisting our organization locate space in our market of choice.

Sean Norman, Director of Operations, American Access Care "It was a true pleasure to be able to work with Paul Maass. He listened carefully to our needs, patiently showed the available spaces to us within our price range, and did it all within an incredibly short amount of time. Although we were not able to secure space with Paul (we chose to remain in our current space), we highly recommend his services. In addition, he provided the name of an excellent resource for us to help us design the space that we will take and draw up the floor plans and find the new furniture for us. He and his contacts are extremely professional and made a challenging situation actually fun! Paul deserves many thanks for an outstanding job." Kitt Garrett, Principal, Discover New York with Kitt Garrett I would like to express how satisfied and impressed we are with your handling of our office space needs and the professional and hard work you put in to make it all work out. Frankly, with the extremely short time-frame we had to find a subtenant, find Westchester space and negotiate all the numerous details, I didn't think it would happen. It came about because of a lot of good, capable people, but your willingness to get into and handle so many areas and details as though you were part of our company carried the day. I would certainly recommend the Winslow firm, and you, in particular, to other businesses needing a real estate broker. Thanks again, Carl Bloom, President, Carl Bloom Associates, Inc. "Paul Maass of Winslow & Company worked tirelessly showing us many spaces. He was patient, listened to our feedback, and kept an open dialogue with us during the course of our search. Ultimately, he found us a beautiful loft space at 594 Broadway and helped us secure a 10 year lease with very agreeable terms. Without Paul’s help and the support of Winslow & Company, we would not have achieved our goals. I would highly recommend them as a commercial real estate broker and can attest to their commitment and professionalism dealing with their clients." David Briggs AIA, Principal, Loci Architecture PC "Paul Maass and his firm were very patient with us renting our first commercial space. They made us feel as important as a larger company. Paul was particularly attentive and helped us get a very fair deal from our landlord. He and his firm helped us negotiate a lease with terms that worked very well for us while still satisfying the landlord's requirements."
