"I heard about Next Step from a friend and they were the first realtor that I contacted when moving to NYC from Boston. I had dealt with other realty companies in Boston (many of which were a bit sketchy and disorganized), and I was pleasantly surprised during my great experience with Next Step. First off, the small start-up feel is really welcoming. All the agents were very helpful, but Meena Ziabari was our agent, and she assembled a great list of properties that checked all the boxes. The process went very smoothly, and within a few days we had closed on an apartment in Manhattan. I would highly recommend Next Step for anyone looking to make sense of what can be a hectic apartment hunt in NYC."

"Next Step Realty made the process of finding an apartment in NYC easy. Jessica was such a great help! She found several apartments in our price point and in the location we wanted. Each of the places were great options! By the end of the day, we had the perfect apartment picked out and an application in for it. I would highly recommend Jessica for anyone moving to NYC!!"

"As a recent college grad, looking for your first apartment is a stressful process. Next Step - particularly our agent Katie Cummings - did an excellent job of making it easy and getting us the right place. Before looking at any apartments, Katie made sure we had all the proper paperwork and our priorities set so we would not lose out in a competitive market. She took us to eight apartments, and we ended up applying to two with a clear top choice. Katie helped us get our top choice, and we can't thank her enough!"

"My roommate and I only had one day in the city to look at apartments. Mary showed us apartments within our price range and location preference and within a few hours we were filling out applications for our favorite! It was a flawless experience. Anytime we had a question, we were able to contact Mary, who responded quickly. Moving to NYC can be stressful, but The Next Step made it easy."

"Due to my job offer, I have to move from Texas to NYC. I have never lived in New York nor did I know how to even start looking for an apartment. Next Step Realty was the best solution possible for me by doing all the heavy lifting. I called weeks in advance to let them know I needed to find somewhere to stay and Margit Weinberg, my agent, immediately followed up with me. She found 8 apartments for me to see within a span of 3 hours that gave me a great idea of what I could expect and what my options would be. I absolutely loved one apartment and we ended up doing the paperwork and locking it in the next day. The process was absolutely painless and I am thrilled with the result. For anyone who wants to get the right apartment but doesn't know how, or doesn't have the time for it, then Next Step Realty is seriously worth considering. I also cannot recommend Margit enough as both a professional and a wonderful person to help you find your next home."

"My roommate and I were extremely stressed about finding an affordable apartment in the 36 hours we had in NYC to look for one! However, when we met with our agent, Jessica, our worries vanished. She had a list of 8 places ready to go, and we used our time extremely efficiently to see each one. She tailored the tour to us and made sure the apartments were in our desired areas/in our price range. We found the perfect apartment for us, and by the end of the day, we had our applications and deposit done so that the apartment was secured for us! It was such a flawless and quick process, and we definitely couldn't have done it on our own. Thanks Jessica!"

"Once I knew I was moving to NYC after graduation, there was with no doubt I would use Next Step Reality. Knowing Jake Vitale, a good friend from the University of South Carolina and him being my realtor, I knew I could count on him and Next Step to help me with this overwhelming process. I knew I could trust everyone part of this process and it all worked out for the best! I was very upfront with Jake in what I wanted and where I wanted to live in NYC, and he was able to give me a plethora of options for me to choose from. Jake knew I had one weekend really to decide on a place, and he was able to close the deal with me. I can't thank Jake Vitale enough for making this process as smooth as possible. I highly recommend Jake Vitale to any friends, family, or colleagues that move to NYC. I appreciate all the support from Next Step Realty family!"
