He was more than accommodating to our hectic work schedules, listened to what we each wanted in an apartment and showed us multiple that matched as best as possible within our budget. Raymond truly cares about his customers, not just about the sale. I would highly recommend him and will use him in the future if we ever move again! Thanks Ray!

I didn't want to give them a bad rating but I had no choice. Their real state is terrible. I was…read morereally really interested in this apartment that they listed on Realtor.com so I've decided to check it out and rent it. They told me what I needed to be qualified and I was good 60k plus income and 700 credit score. I have waited hours and hours 4 days or so just get a yes or no response . like if they still have it or no . anyway I have dealt you with 5 other Realtor's in my life and they were motivated and liked to help people but these guys hang up on the middle of a conversation and not reply calls when you call them. To be honest stick to good Realtors not these guys!!

My experiences with Berkeley Cooperative Towers Section 3 Housing: Berkeley Cooperative Towers…read moreSection 3 in Woodside, NY, is a place where the only thing older than the 60-year-old garage is the mindset of the slumlord-style co-op board. Their latest masterstroke? Voting to deny a disabled resident the right to install an electric car charger. It seems the board is on a mission to protect the garage as if it were one of the Egyptian pyramids--a sacred relic that must remain untouched by modern conveniences like, you know, electricity. Living here feels like stepping back in time. The board must believe we're still in the Ice Age, where Neanderthals roamed, and mammoths were the preferred mode of transport. Electric cars? Laughable. But if you've got a horse-drawn carriage, you might just score a prime parking spot. Perhaps they're waiting for Christopher Columbus to stumble upon the garage and marvel at its complete lack of progress. Or maybe they think a few windmills will power the building's future--a charmingly delusional plan in a world racing toward electric vehicles. Meanwhile, other co-ops are adapting, upgrading, and increasing their value, while Berkeley Towers clings to the past like a dinosaur stuck in tar. Let's talk about property value: Without electric chargers, this co-op is plummeting in appeal faster than a woolly mammoth falling off a glacier. Who wants to buy into a place where the garage is a time capsule, and the board actively works to deprive garage owners of basic amenities like electricity? It's as if the board is committed to running the property into the ground--true slumlord like behavior at its finest. So, if you're nostalgic for the Stone Age, enjoy declining property values, and want to be ruled by a board that thinks progress is a threat, Berkeley Cooperative Towers Section 3 is your dream home. Just leave your electric car--and any hope for the future--far, far away.

Over the summer I decided to move - I typically stick with no fee and finding an apartment on my…read moreown. Through street easy, I found a nice apartment and contacted the agent (it was the agent's exclusive so no choice!). I met Linda at her office and she jumped us in her car to the apartment and saw how quickly I didn't like it. Rather than (as most do) saying good luck, Linda took me to a handful of other apartments and helped me to navigate the area as I moved from Harlem to Sunnyside (and I knew nothing about Sunnyside!). Linda even showed me an apartment she knew would be available and I really liked the place. She made the paperwork super easy, is always available, and is still a great contact for neighborhood needs. She made sure the apartment was cleaned and painted and helped walk me through all the ins and outs of the place. I can't say enough that I really dislike using a broker and paying the fee. Linda was very reasonable with the fee, and I actually felt that she worked for the fee (again, big firm brokers just want and get the fee using exclusive listings, but Linda took the time (as a very local broker firm) to make sure i was taken care of. I would recommend her to anyone looking in the queens area - she even showed me some co-ops, but didn't feel ready to do that (she was helpful in starting to help me think about it though) and if I choose to go that route I will use her!

He made this stressful process more manageable and ensured that we were heard and understood everything step of the way. I would 1000% recommend Todd & Prevu anytime, any day! Plus you get a rebate, but honestly even without the rebate we would use them again. Highly recommend!

I originally wrote this review in 2010. Got an e-mail from Yelp HQ the other day saying they were…read moretaking it down because the review indicated that I did not have a relationship with this company. Huh? Shame on you, Yelp HQ! Read it again. It clearly says how we made them our agents and how much we regretted it. Oh, wow!!! double shame on you, Yelp HQ! Look at the other reviews! 3 of the 5-star reviews should totally be taken down! 2 of them clearly state that the reviewer didn't hire Shildkret! And one review has nothing to do with real estate. It's someone saying how Shildkret hires their company to do roofing jobs. WTH!! Fellow Yelpers, you can see for yourself how the 5-star reviews are all questionable and how this company has mostly 1-star reviews. They are really nasty and as crooked as the day is long. We found a house in which we were interested. We spoke to the listing agents (Debra Murray and Irene ). We told them we would have the agent we'd been working with contact them in order to continue the process. They begged us to let them represent us (so they wouldn't have to split the commission). They told us that if we did so, they would 1. Do everything they could to satisfy our needs. 2. Give us use of the company truck for our move. Neither one of these things happened despite us making them our new agents. The sellers concealed from us a number of things that were broken (the house was so packed, even the inspector didn't see these things) and the agents were only too happy to assist in rushing us through to help ensure that we did not examine too thoroughly. They never conveyed our wishes to the sellers. Things that would have helped us a great deal and would not have caused the sellers any problem or cost them anything. But not having it done cost us money and a great deal of time. And they didn't even provide the truck for our move! I contacted Julia afterwards and asked to be reimbursed for our costs. She wrote me back a very obnoxious letter in which she stated: That loan of the truck was a courtesy, not a right. That the agents spent far more time with us than with other buyers. That we were the beneficiaries of money expended by her firm. Following are excerpts from my response As to how much time the agents spent with us vs. other buyers, I couldn't say. I would have to guess though that this too is inaccurate as we bought the only property they showed us. I would imagine that you have buyers who may look at a dozen properties before buying, don't you? But of course that is not relevant. The assertion that they "bent over backwards to satisfy us" is ridiculous. It was abundantly clear that they were taking the sellers' side all the way. Regarding your claims of financial concessions by your firm that benefitted us: allow me to address the 3 you mentioned 1. Getting the sellers to leave us a stove. I've never even heard of this one before. There was never any issue regarding a stove. So, I don't know what you are talking about. Are you perhaps referring to the issue of the refrigerator? There were 2 refrigerators. We were initially lead to believe that both would stay. Not only did we not get 2, we didn't even get the better one of the 2. 2. The built-in cabinets in the 2nd bedroom. We do not believe for a minute the agents paid the sellers for them. Even Irene looked shocked when Debbie made this claim to us. The cabinets were in the contract. So, we were getting them. Neither we nor anyone else had to pay extra for them. 3. The sidewalk. Yes, your firm had this done. That's great. But please don't insult our intelligence by implying that it was some act of largess. It was a sticking point between us and the seller. And so, to speed up the process of getting a commission of tens of thousands of dollars, you invested a few hundred. That's just good business on your part. Julia, this was a horrible transaction from start to finish. The sellers' took advantage of us in every way (taking things that they weren't supposed to, trying to sell us things that were clearly included in the contract) and your agents tried to assist them in every way. The day we got the keys, we did a quick walk through and then Irene tried to get us to sign a document stating that everything was in fine shape and that the escrow money should be released. That is both totally unreasonable and totally biased! That is not good (or even fair) representation of our interests.

MyGradPad posted an apartment on facebook that looked to be exactly what I wanted, so I sent over an email and got a response almost immediately. Brittny, the owner of the company and the broker, scheduled a time for me to visit the apartment within 24 hours. The apartment is beautiful and I couldn't be happier. Brittny was extremely flexible with scheduling meetings and responded to emails, texts, phone calls very promptly. She made what could have been a very stressful process into an enjoyable one! My only complaint would be that once I was approved for the lease, I wasn't given much information or direction on the move-in process. Despite this, I would recommend MGP to anyone, especially recent grads, looking for a stress-free apartment search.
