Krishana Pleasant

"She was AMAZING! Went above and beyond to do her job, I highly recommend her and 100% will be using her again in the future."

"I liked the professionalism Krishana handled my case with. She is my "Professional Angel". Thanks, Krishana!"

"Our negotiations with Krishana and her client together with a New York State controlled development agency concerning a restrictive declaration establishing long term affordability requirements for the acquisition of surplus vacant land in Brooklyn, New York was handled remarkably and professionally well. The vacant land in question is in the process of being developed over 5 phases and will consist of 10 mixed use residential buildings for a total of 1,160 dwelling units, and will include 105,000 sq. ft. of retail, commercial and community facility space. Although Krishana was on the “other side” of the transaction, she understood the end game very well and was very transactional in moving negotiations with us (as her client's borrower) and Empire State Development forward to a satisfactory and professional outcome for all of the parties involved in the transaction. It was a high stakes, high pressure transaction, and she didn’t miss a beat. As a result, we were able to secure the acquisition funding from her client quite smoothly for this important development.

"Krishana Pleasant has been a strategic partner in achieving our fund’s goals in originating complex real estate transactions, to facilitate much needed affordable housing production in New York City.

She’s also been valuable in helping us trouble-shoot when transactions encounter challenges. Krishana is a great listener and communicator, keenly demonstrated when there are multiple parties (both business and legal) with varying interests at stake in a transaction. Consistently, Krishana has utilized her well-honed skills in understanding and responding to our legal needs. Brian Segel, Senior Vice President, Forsyth Street Advisors"
