Home financing,
the way it should be

Buying in Sunnyside - a leafy, walkable pocket built around the Sunnyside Gardens historic co-ops, one subway stop from Manhattan - shouldn’t mean chasing a lender who never calls back. Brian Marchand helps buyers across Queens and all of New York, from first-time buyers to seasoned investors.

What clients say again and again is simple: he answers. Text him on a Saturday, call after hours, ask the "silly" first-timer question - you’ll get a real answer, quickly, in plain English.

And when a file is tricky, that’s exactly when Brian does his best work. Yes, when other lenders say no.

Property taxes

New York City taxes 1–3 family homes at a relatively low effective rate - often 0.6%–0.9% of market value a year - far below the upstate average. On a $525K home that’s roughly $350/mo. Co-ops and condos are assessed differently and bundle taxes into monthly charges. The STAR and veterans’ exemptions can lower the bill further.

Schools

Sunnyside is served by NYC District 30 within NYC Public Schools. Attendance zones vary block by block, so it’s always worth confirming the exact zoned schools for a specific address.

What sells here

Most homes here are co-ops, so budget for monthly maintenance and a board package - Brian knows which lenders move fastest on co-op share loans.

You may not need 20% down

Brian works with 3% & 5%-down conventional, FHA (3.5% down), zero-down VA, co-op and condo financing, plus SONYMA first-time-buyer loans with down-payment assistance. First-time buyer in Queens? He’ll line up every credit you’re eligible for.
