My experience with James and Victoria was absolutely perfect. It’s not easy moving to NYC from another country, but they went above and beyond to find me the perfect apartment in time for my start date. Victoria was extremely organized, attentive, and clear regarding all the housing options I had. She also shared her first hand knowledge of the city to help me visualize the neighbourhoods. Thanks again for making my apartment hunt perfect 👌 .

Had the most fantastic experience working with James to secure my Brooklyn apartment! James made the entire process from touring to move-in day flow seamlessly and with such ease. Every question and request I had throughout the process was met with incredibly kind, helpful, and timely replies. Cannot recommend him enough and would absolutely work with him again! Thank you James!

It was a pleasure working with Ricardo throughout the entire process of touring, lease paperwork, etc. He is a true professional that has exceptional knowledge of the city, which comes in handy if you are from out of town.

Working with Victoria to find an apartment virtually was a fantastic experience. She took the time to understand my needs, provided detailed virtual tours, and offered great insights into different neighborhoods. Her responsiveness and transparency made me feel completely at ease, especially when it came time to sign a lease for a place I had never seen in person. I never felt rushed or uncertain; Victoria ensured I had all the information I needed to make a confident decision. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy broker, especially for virtual searches, I highly recommend Victoria!
