Afik Azulay is a fantastic NYC broker. Afik was kind, approachable, funny and best of all - found us an off-market apartment that fit our needs perfectly. He guided us through the application and lease signing process and even followed up afterwards. I will definitely work with Afik again - if I ever move out this awesome apartment :)

Great, easy experience with Walter! I gave him certain criteria and filters for the type of apartment my husband and I were looking for and his results were amazing! He showed us such a variety of places that all catered to our taste and budget. We spent weeks looking for apartments ourselves, but within 1 afternoon Walter was able to find us our new home and we couldn't be happier! I would 10/10 recommend

Alessandro is the man! (Seriously). Most agents' I've encountered during my apartment search for the last seven years have been unprofessional and are clouded by dollar signs. ALESSANDRO IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE! He definitely cares about his clients. There are few people I can connect with on a personal level, and I'm lucky to have connected with Alessandro. Connecting on a personal level with your clients is key, and Alessandro definitely nailed it. He was very efficient. He was easily accessible. Not to mention he communicated everything thoroughly which shows he knows what he's talking about.
