What is Samaki.com?
Samaki.com is the largest ESL1 real estate portal in NYC and Long Island. We partner with real estate firms to translate and display listings for ESL buyers and sellers in 12 languages.
Samaki also makes ESL1 listing flyers for agents to use during their listing presentations and open houses.
1ESL = English as a Second Language (non-native speakers of the English language)
Problem: "English-only" real estate doesn't work anymore
- 3.6 million New Yorkers speak a language other than English at home (50% of NYC)
- 1.8 million New Yorkers are not English Proficient (25% of NYC)
- 1 million Long Islanders speak a language other than English at home (30% of LI)
- Over 450,000 Long Islanders are not English Proficient (15% of LI)
As a result, over 2 million New Yorkers are unable to read your listings!
