About Lenox Hill
Lenox Hill is an Upper East Side neighborhood in Manhattan, generally spanning the streets between roughly 60th and 77th, east of Central Park toward the East River. It is a classic uptown residential district defined by prewar co-op buildings, postwar condominiums, and elegant townhouses along quiet side streets. The neighborhood offers an exceptional concentration of amenities: world-class hospitals, museums along nearby Museum Mile, and the boutiques and galleries of Madison Avenue. Lexington and Third Avenues provide everyday shopping, dining, and services, while Central Park lies a short walk to the west for green space and recreation. Transportation is excellent, with the 4, 5, and 6 trains along Lexington Avenue and the Second Avenue Q line offering fast access throughout Manhattan. Lenox Hill is known for its central, walkable location, strong building stock, and proximity to cultural institutions, top medical centers, and some of the city's most established shopping. For buyers, it represents one of Manhattan's most enduring and convenient residential addresses, blending the character of prewar architecture with the access and energy of the Upper East Side.

My siblings and I recently sold our late father‘s apartment with the help of Danny and it couldn’t have been a better experience for us.
Throughout the entire process, Danny kept us up-to-date with what was going on as far as how many appointments he had to show the apartment, the open houses he was hosting, and any other information. That really gave us all peace of mind to know that he was working hard for us and that he genuinely cared about helping us find the right buyers for our father‘s home.
My Siblings and I highly recommend Danny to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the beautiful neighborhood of Bay Ridge Brooklyn.
We feel that if our father got to know Danny, he would really like him and would be very happy to know that he handled the sale of his apartment and found a lovely young family to move in there and start a new life.

I contracted with Dan at Soldano Realty to sell my co-op on Shore Rd and Dan did an outstanding job. My primary residence is on the west coast, and I was often only available by phone. In addition, this was my first co-op, and I was not familiar with the sales process. This required Dan to take on added responsibilities in keeping me informed, up to date on the requirements, and basically walking me through the process. He did this in a highly professional and efficient manner, which I truly appreciated
From start to finish Dan’s level of professionalism shows through.
I highly recommend Dan and Soldano Realty!

We had a pleasure working with Soldano Realty during the recent sale of our apartment. Danny was our first and only choice, as his reputation precedes him. For years, I had seen his name associated with apartment sales in our building on Shore Road.
Danny is the ultimate professional. He is extremely knowledgeable about all things Bay Ridge and guided us through every step of the sales process. He is also an easy and responsive communicator. He made the transaction as smooth as possible and sold our apartment within days of listing.

Working with Danny was truly a seamless and stress-free experience. He sold my apartment within a year after I hand it listed with another agency for over 2 years! He handled every detail with professionalism and care, from coordinating showings and managing keys to communicating directly with my tenants as I lived elsewhere. It was such a relief not having to worry, knowing everything was fully covered and under control. His knowledge of the market and hands-on approach really set him apart, and I can confidently say he knows his stuff. I would recommend him over and over again.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Danny Soldano to sell my co-op apartment in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, he conducted himself as a true class act—professional, respectful, and genuinely caring about achieving the best outcome for me.
Danny is incredibly data-driven and deeply in tune with the current market trends. He provided clear, insightful analysis that gave me complete confidence in our pricing and strategy. His persistence was remarkable; he followed up diligently with potential buyers, keeping the momentum going.
What truly set him apart was his ability to think creatively to come up with an effective solution when we encountered a complex issue that could have derailed the deal. Thanks to his expertise and determination, we navigated it smoothly and closed successfully.
If you're looking for a realtor who combines sharp market knowledge, unwavering persistence, and old-school integrity, Danny is the one. I’m so grateful for his guidance during this important transition and would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone selling (or buying) in the NYC area.

I had a great experience working with this Soldano Realty (Daniel Soldano) on the sale of my apartment. From the very beginning, he was professional, responsive, and knowledgeable about the local market. The apartment was priced strategically, marketed well, and got under the contract within three months at the top market price.
Throughout the process, communication was clear and timely, and I always felt well-advised and supported, especially when navigating negotiations and closing details. I would absolutely recommend Daniel Soldano and his agency to anyone looking to sell a property and would work with him again without hesitation.

I cannot recommend Danny Soldano more. He was exceptional in helping us sell our home in Bay Ridge. His deep understanding of the neighborhood was crucial and really made the difference. He priced our home perfectly, and we started receiving strong offers after just one week on the market. Because we couldn't be present throughout much of the process, Danny stepped up and handled everything transparently and honestly, treating the sale as if it were his own. His integrity, local knowledge, and professionalism exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Danny and Soldano Realty to anyone looking for an agent.

My husband and I were connected with Danny via StreetEasy to view houses in Bay Ridge. We were so happy and impressed by his expertise and professionalism, we started seeing houses on Staten Island as well. Danny is easy going and kind, but very sharp and understands his role very well. Danny is very responsive, via text and email, while also being generous with his time and knowledge. He supported us through a multi-offer situation with respect and though ultimately it didn’t work out, Danny was our advocate, staying true to our desires and needs. We cannot recommend Danny enough for any buying/selling/rental need!

My husband and I bought an apartment in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, and as much as I was familiar with this type of transaction, I was not looking forward to the application process. Danny Soldano from Soldano Realty and Mike Davis from Re/Max really worked together and provided outstanding service to the buyers and sellers with their personalized approach and dedication to keeping us informed throughout the whole process. Together their genuine support ensured a smooth transaction and optimal results for both clients. If you're looking to buy an apartment, I highly recommend them for their exceptional professionalism, reliability, and ability to deliver outstanding results.

I have relied on Danny as our realtor for over 10 years, during which he has facilitated numerous rental transactions for our properties in Bay Ridge. His professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine concern for his clients is commendable. Danny consistently provides sound guidance, particularly when evaluating potential tenants. He attentively considers our preferences and presents only suitable candidates, explaining why others may not be ideal. Each tenant that Danny has vetted fully met the expectations of a property owner. Danny possesses extensive knowledge of the current market and offers a realistic assessment of property values. He is also willing to take the time to research and respond thoughtfully, demonstrating his commitment to his clients. I wholeheartedly recommend Danny to anyone involved in renting, buying or selling property.

We met Daniel Soldano of Soldano Realty while interviewing realtors to sell our house in Dyker Heights. He stood out with exceptional professionalism, so it didn’t take long to choose him as our representative. Under his guidance the stressful process of selling our house went effortlessly, and we ended up selling for the record price at the time. After closing, he helped us with finding transitional rental apartment, and later with his help we purchased coop in Bay Ridge. Through all these transactions, he was efficient, professional, and committed to our best interest. I would recommend Daniel for all your real estate needs.

Daniel Soldano is the best realtor in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. As first time homebuyers, we were very nervous about the whole process. Daniel was knowledgeable and very helpful with the buying process from the start, and was able to answer any and every question we had along the way. He truly made us feel like a priority, checking in and assisting us with a great attention to detail, from submitting our co-op application up until closing day! Even after closing, Daniel extended himself to help connect us with a local, reliable contractor to help us complete renovations and achieve our goals for our new home! A year later, we consider Danny a friend and look forward to visiting his new office on 3rd Avenue! There is no doubt that Daniel will be our first call when we are ready to sell. Thanks again, Danny! - The Lupos

Both times, his expertise, professionalism, and dedication were exceptional. Danny has now started his own brokerage, and based on our past experiences, we are confident in his success and look forward to working with him again for our next home purchase. Highly recommended for anyone looking to make their real estate transactions as smooth and successful as ours were!
