Meet Eric

Eric Benaim, a key figure in Queens real estate since 2001, transitioned from a live event firm to luxury Manhattan sales before focusing on Long Island City (LIC).

The firm now holds a 70% market share in LIC and has managed over $10 billion in transactions, with $4 billion in assets and a 6,000-unit development pipeline. Modern Spaces is a top New York City development marketing firm and influential in Queens.
