"Margit was so helpful and amazing! My boyfriend Mateusz and I just moved from San Francisco to New York not knowing anything about the city. Margit was able to help us decided on a neighborhood by getting to know us and our priorities in a home. When we got to New York Margit showed us many great options. We ended up finding the New York apartment of our dreams and this would not have been possible without the help of Margit and Next Step. Thank you so much for your help! "

"My roommate and I only had one day to view apartments and then make a decision. Victoria set up a viewing of a large amount of apartments all in one day after we had contacted Next Step last minute, and we were able to see a variety of apartments throughout our price range. Victoria also was able to help us out by coordinating with the landlord after we had some logistical issues. We really appreciate all her help!"

"Jordan at Next Step Realty completely changed my perception of realtors in New York City. He showed us a bevy of well selected apartments, each of which we would have been happy to rent. Jordan was honest, transparent and completely professional - yet utterly approachable. It was a really fantastic, seamless experience that completely exceeded expectations. I will definitely be recommending him to friends/family."

"I recently moved from the Midwest to NY to start a job at a law firm. I am not from a large city and was overwhelmed by the prospect of a search. Next Step, Michelle specifically, was amazing. I gave her a good idea of what I was looking for, and Michelle came up with great options. She respected my price range and the amenities/locations I was looking for. The driver was terrific as well and got us around quickly. The paperwork was also painless, and Michelle worked closely with my building to make sure everything went smoothly. Can't recommend Michelle and next step enough. I really enjoyed working with them and will do so again in the future!"

"My girlfriend and I were making the move from DC to New York so I could start my new job at Willkie Farr & Gallagher. Navigating the complexities of the New York housing market was like nothing we had ever experienced, and we would have been totally lost without the amazing professionals at Next Step! We had some very specific accessibility requirements, and our agent Meena, really listened to what we needed. We only had one day to come look at apartments, and Meena showed us 10 places that were all within budget and met all of our needs. We ended up choosing a place on the Upper West Side (our desired neighborhood) that has a ton of character, space, and is perfect for my daily commute - something we didn’t think was possible on our budget in New York. Meena had coordinated our paperwork with us ahead of time, so when we went to the leasing agent, it was a smooth process that ended with us getting our dream apartment. We were incredibly impressed with the professionalism and efficiency of Meena and the Next Step team, and we will definitely be working with them in the future."

"Recently moved to NYC, had no idea how complicated the process was compared to other places. Could not have found such a perfect spot without Mary and Katie. Next Step is the definite best in NYC."

"My boyfriend and I were making the move from DC to New York for work, and we couldn't be happier with our experience with Next Step. We had some very specific accessibility requirements, and our agent Meena, really listened to our needs. We had one day to come look at apartments, and Meena showed us 10 places that were all within budget and parameters.

"Next Step Realty was really amazing. We found them as a company recommended broker. Mary was so easy to work with and kept in mind what our spending range was. I really liked how we were able to go for just one day and see all sorts of places. Would highly recommend!!"

"I recently relocated from Washington, DC to New York City, and I had a very positive experience working with Next Step Realty. My agent, Meena Ziabari, was painstaking in her effort to understand exactly the type of apartment I was looking for- we had an hour-long initial discussion and several subsequent chats during which Meena repeated my wish list back to me and offered further suggestions. Pursuant to our talks, Meena showed me a wide variety of apartments that fit my needs and were within my budget. When I changed my mind about the type of apartment I wanted midway through our tour, Meena and her team curated additional apartments that matched my new wish list and brought me to see those places within 24 hours. Throughout the process, Meena was kind and enjoyable to be around, and utilized her expert knowledge of the New York rental market on my behalf. It was my pleasure to work with Meena, and I highly recommend her and Next Step Realty."
