Buyfolio's proprietary building database and advanced data algorithms give our users access to the most accurate and detailed listing information in NYC. No other search tool has such comprehensive data and information.

Accurate_data

  • Search all NYC listings using dozens of parameters including everything from price and number of bedrooms, to building amenities such as gym, pool, and private storage.
  • Search for listings based on building criteria that is only available on Buyfolio, including whether dogs are allowed, a doorman is part-time or full-time, if there is a live-in-superintendent, and more!
  • Our listings are updated 3x every day and Buyfolio is often the first search tool to display new listings and status changes.

Simple-to-use Search Interface

Our easy-to-use and intuitive search interface gives you all the control and tools you need to find potential properties.

Easy_interface

  • Create a customized search, using as few or as many parameters as you want.
  • Search by a specific address or street.
  • Receive email updates when new properties that match your criteria come on the market.

Unparalleled Co-op Information

Easily Accessible Past Sales and For Sale in this Building

When viewing a listing, either in the search interface or a folio, Buyfolio displays the other units that are for sale in that same building as well as past sales data for that building.

Past_sales_data

  • Past Sales Data: View all the sales dates and sales prices for units that have sold in a particular Manhattan building since 2008.
  • For Sale in this Building: View, with the ability to click through, on all the other units that are for sale in a particular building.

Make Your Home Search Collaborative

Buyfolio makes it easy to collaborate with a broker, spouse, and / or family member on a home search. With Buyfolio you all share listings in a joint folio - the central hub of a home search and a single, easy-to-manage, repository for multiple users.

Share

  • Emailing links is no longer an efficient or desirable way to send and receive property listings. With Buyfolio, you share listings in one location.
  • Add listings to your folio, either with a single click from Buyfolio's search interface or by pasting a listing link from popular websites such as the NY Times, StreetEasy, or Trulia.
  • Add listings with a note and start a discussion about a particular property with your other folio users. Ask your broker a question about the neighborhood. See if your spouse likes the floorplan.
  • Never save a duplicate listing! Whether you add a listing from Buyfolio or another website, show you the results that are already in your folio and in what category they're in. We even do the same for open listings.

Stay Organized

Once listings are added to a folio, you can organize them within four categories: To Review, To See, Saw & Liked, and Didn't Like.

Organize

  • Moving properties between the categories helps you stay organized, think critically about properties, and funnel towards the best homebuying decision.
  • Didn't Like A Listing? Delete properties from a folio with a single click.
  • When you delete a property we ask you why, save the answer, move it to the Didn't Like folder, AND still track the price and status in case there is a time you want to re-introduce it into your folio.
  • Tracking properties you didn't like helps you better understand the market.

Always Know what is Happening with Listings

Listings in the folio are updated 3x every day to ensure you always know when there are price changes, status changes, and upcoming open houses.

Track

  • Keep track of sales prices, status changes, and open houses for properties you're interested in.
  • Add an open house to your calendar with a single click.

Easily Communicate

Buyfolio makes it easy and efficient to communicate and collaborate with the other users of your folio.

Discuss

  • Add listings directly from your Search to your folio with a property-specific note for your broker or spouse.
  • Ask your broker to make a showing appointment or register you for an open house.
  • Discuss properties in chat format with any or all of the folio users.

Email Notification Keep Everyone in the Loop

Buyfolio emails you when a property is added to your folio, when a listing is moved from one category to another, or whenever a folio user leaves a comment.

Notifications

  • Every day you'll receive an email detailing the activity in your folio. See what your broker has been doing and whether your spouse has added new properties.
  • Every time you access the folio, we identify exactly what's new to you – what properties, what comments, etc. so you know what needs your attention.
  • When you log into Buyfolio we show you a snapshot of all the newest activity in your folio.
