We knew right away that this guy was down-to-earth, likable, and on our side as much as the landlord's side. This was very important, as I know many agents treat tenants like mere faces to another paycheck. When we backed out of a first apartment, Tom suggested several others, one of which became the one. We had a lot of issues with Rhino (not MySpace NYC's fault), but Tom humanized the challenge with us and ultimately helped us work things out. Throughout the process, we've FaceTimed, texted, and he even bought my friend and I coffee after a viewing. Four weeks later, we signed our lease, and we just got the keys this past weekend.

Pretty nightmare experience with this "roommate matching service". I was in a situation where I…read moreneeded a new place to live in less than a month and didn't have a lot of options. I was so relieved when I thought I had found an apartment that was exactly what I wanted, but not so thrilled when the agent sprung the Roomeze literature on me after the showing. I've always been skeptical about companies like Roomeze in NYC and after the experience I've had, I wish I listened to my gut and looked elsewhere. Firstly, their roommate matching "process" is non-existent. You're completely going in blind to 12 months with strangers just like you'd be if you were moving into any other usual Craigslist apartment. They show you some pictures and bios of the random people they've thrown you together with and that's it. Other than that you won't actually meet the strangers that will be your roommates for the next year until you're all sitting in the Roomeze office while your agent hovers over you pressuring you all to sign the lease. That brings me to the second most important point. The Roomeze process. All you need to know is that once you put in your deposit, you're screwed. Once they have your deposit, Roomeze dangles it over your head to coerce you into doing anything they want because their terms and conditions will prevent you from ever seeing that money again if you disagree with anything they force you into. My experience was, after my agent suddenly bumped my rent up $25 more than we agreed, i started having doubts. Then they filled one of the rooms in the apartment with somebody i definitely didn't think i'd fit with and had some more doubts. No matter what I said to my agent, he just ignored me and tried to steamroll me into coming into the Roomeze office and signing the lease. After expressing all my doubts about the situation my agent started to harass me daily about the lease. After reviewing the lease, you'd have to be crazy to sign it. First thing I noticed on the agreements were the words "jointly and severally responsible". What that means is, if any of the randos Roomeze throws in with you stops paying rent, you're on the hook for that rent. No way was I signing that, not with 3 strangers I barely knew. After I refused to sign my agent went on a guilt trip to the point I had to block his number because the texts and the calls just wouldn't stop. Can't emphasize enough, do not get involved with Roomeze. Totally wasted my time and money and stressed me out for weeks, don't let the same happen to you.

Worst third-party company to "help" you find an apartment/ roommates in NYC, especially if you're…read morenew in the city and don't know much about the housing situations in the area. In my situation, Roomeze charged me a $200 application fee, whereby people in the same unit, who didn't sign up with Roomeze, only paid $50 for their application fee for an apartment owned by CT Green Management/ GB Properties (biggest scammers you'll ever encounter). They promise you they'll help you to find your "ideal" place to live at, and help you if there would be any difficulties encountered, for example with landlords, which in my case didn't want to give back my 4x security deposit (because I am international student with no credit score) and I left the apartment with no damages at all, so there was no reason to not return the security deposit. Roomeze have no office place to visit, no number to call and they choice to answer your emails if they feel for if. I needed to chase my security deposit for 4 whole months, and even ended up in contact with the co-founder Jordan, who didn't do any good at all. He said he would call and explain the situation, but I never heard from him, and I tried multiple times to contact him via email, but it was just waste of time.

I scheduled a meeting day and time with Adam. The morning of, I messaged Adam and confirmed that we were meeting that day. He confirmed. I then ubered 30 minutes to the location just to be told by Adam that he does not have the key to the unit nor was the landlord in the building to open the door, to show the apartment. Why would you confirm the showing, if you knew you did not have the key to the unit? Why not contact me prior to me paying for an uber and driving 30 mins out of my way, to tell me you didn't have the key? I emailed Ivana and told her what had happened and asked her to correct this and never heard back from her. Extremely unprofessional. Large part of me believes they are racist. Adam waited until I arrived at the location, to see what I looked like and just claimed he didn't have the key. Only explanation I can think of.

It's rare to find a company that delivers the same great experience year after year, but they truly do.
