CERTIFICATION                    Exhibit 31.1

I, Jeffrey F. Joseph, Chief Executive Officer of Presidential Realty
Corporation (the "Company") certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of the Company;

2.   Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any
     untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
     necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances
     under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to
     the period covered by this quarterly report;

3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
     information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
     material respects the financial condition, results of operations and
     cash flows of the Company as of, and for, the periods presented in
     this quarterly report;

4.   The Company's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
     establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
     defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
     Company and we have:

     a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
         material information relating to the Company, including its
         consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within
         those entities, particularly during the period in which this
         quarterly report is being prepared;

     b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and
         procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
         effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the
         end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation;
         and

     c)  disclosed in this report any changes in the Company's internal
         control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's
         most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
         reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
         control over financial reporting; and

  5.  The Company's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our
      most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to
      the Company's auditors and the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of
      Directors:

     a)   all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
          operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
          reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company's ability to record,
          process, summarize and report financial information; and

     b)   any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
          employees who have a significant role in the Company's internal
          control over financial reporting.
