The result was perfection : he instantly bonded with her and gained her confidence. He introduced her to a range of properties, quickly assessed her preferences and completed the search in two visits. My wife and I met him, when we acted as a sounding board for her on the final tour. She and we found Donald to be highly professional, knowledgable, thorough, personable and patient. His recommendations were totally on target. He also assisted in expediting the rigorous leasing process.

We viewed the top-floor unit, preferred it, put down a 25% deposit, and applied. A couple of days later, we were told there was a "miscommunication" and the top-floor unit was actually not available. ​We transferred our application back to the lower unit we had first viewed, were approved, and agreed to their offered lease terms. However, our agent accidentally hit "reply all" on an email thread with five representatives, sending an internal message stating: "I didn't tell him yet that 4L is no longer available. I'm going to try and push him into 3L." It was clear they were planning to redirect us to an even less desirable apartment after leading us to believe our deal was finalized. ​On top of this, their StreetEasy listings are impossible to match to real-life apartments because the listed unit numbers do not match physical apartment numbers, and generic photos are used across multiple listings. Qualified, serious applicants deserve transparency. Avoid this brokerage.

She found us our current apartment on a day we happened to be in the area and didn't even have an appointment. She fit us in last minute because she knew she had an apartment that was exactly what we were looking for. I am so glad to have lucked into having her help us search!

Anywho, I was looking for an apartment for Nov. 1st in Williamsburg so I walked into Williamsburg Realty on October 5th and was approached by a friendly Austrian realtor T*(name withheld because he seemed like a nice person, just in a disorganized company) who offered to show me an apartment on the spot. I fell in love with the special apartment and put down a deposit. I thought my search was over. Happily! UNTIL... Almost 2 weeks later, this Realtor T* told me the "bad news" that the landlord of the apartment rejected my application and that a) there was nothing he could do and that b) sadly, he had no other apartments left in the area for a comparable price but "suggested I move to Queens." On a side note, when I visited this special apartment, a nice Mexican workman was doing repairs and the nice Realtor introduced him as "the apartment slave". I am certainly not politically correct by any means, but I felt like this comment was in very poor taste. And that he wasn't such a nice Realtor. WIlliamsburg Realty should not be allowed to take deposits for apartments until they are sure that their tenants do in fact have the apartment. It is so stressful and I do not recommend this agency. I had to scramble to find an apartment a week before my lease was up and Realtor T* never returned my calls when I asked him to recommend any apartments. Only when did I visit the agency and cry in front of the Realtor T* did he apologize to me for the stress his lack of communication had caused me. Lastly, anytime I went into Williamsburg Realty, everyone working there seemed gloomy and unfriendly. Just really bad vibes all around, but on a positive closing note, they did have nice pillows of a map of the world at the entrance which I wish I could go in and ask where they bought them but that might be a little AWKWARD considering the aforementioned incident! Sorry but it's true!

For context, I HATE brokers, especially New York brokers, they are always unorganized, anxious, and often don't listen to anything I say.
