"I was stressing about my move to my first apartment for MONTHS. I laid awake at night thinking about how stressful the house hunt would be, weeks and weeks before it even made sense to start looking. I was absolutely miserable thinking about it. My roommate and I decided to give a broker a try, and we were matched with Sara Nardi at Next Step. She absolutely KILLED it! She was friendly, fun, and super helpful throughout the entire process, even after we signed our lease. The entire process was so much less stressful than finding a place on your own, especially because you get it all done in one day! At the beginning of the process, Sara called my roommate and I, and took into account both of our needs and wants when it came to amenities, location, and price. In one afternoon, she took us to 7 properties, all of which I would’ve been happy living in. When we decided on the apartment we liked most, Sara was even able to negotiate a discount on the rent, and a move-in date that worked for us. She was absolutely worth every single penny. I’ve heard many stories of people having negative experiences with apartment brokers, but I’m happy to say I will always (and already have) recommend her and Next Step to any friends and family looking to move. Thank you Sara, we can’t wait to get into our new apartment!"

"My girlfriend and I relocated from the DC area to NYC. Victoria Scott did a fantastic job in terms of listening to what we wanted and coming up with a great set of listings for us to visit. She was really friendly and knowledgeable about the whole process. We were on a tight schedule; however, in about half a day, we were able to see a variety of listings and find a really great apartment that met all our criteria. Thanks Victoria and Next Step!"

"I am so thankful that I found Next Step they made my apartment search so easy! I recently moved from Boston to NYC for work and had a short deadline to find a place. Victoria was amazing she called me in advance to talk about what I wanted and what were my deal breakers. I loved how we looked at 10 apartments all in one day so it was easy to compare what I liked and what I did not. She was super helpful and patient with me when I was trying to decide between two places and even showed me them again the next day. Once I decided on a place she helped me with all of the paperwork and getting bank checks since it was my first time renting and apartment. Any questions I had Victoria answered and was always there to help me. I am in love with my new apartment and wouldn't have found it without Victoria! i highly recommend the Next Step team and Victoria!"

"My boyfriend and I were looking for an apartment together and we each had very specific requirements for our future home. Sarah Minton helped us find the most perfect apartment that filled all of our needs. She really took the time to listen to what each of us wanted and found us a great place that checked off all the boxes. I would highly recommend Next Step to anyone that is looking for an easy way to find a great home in NYC!"

"Next Step Realty provided us with a great experience when we were relocating from Boston to NYC. My agent was Meena and she did a fantastic job lining up credible showings with fully vetted properties. I have heard many horror stories from my friends in NYC when it comes to dealing with dishonest realtors and fake listings. Next Step Realty prides itself on only showing credible listings with good property management companies and landlords, many of which they have done business with in the past. Meena was extremely responsive and responded outside of business hours to address any concerns I had throughout the process. We found our apartment in one day and we are loving NYC and our new home!"

"Victoria is the best! She was so up-beat and positive while she helped us find our new apartment. I loved that Victoria didn't pressure us to pick a place but instead let us come to our decision on our own. I would definitely use Next Step Realty again and recommend them and Victoria to everyone. Also, the car service they have that brings you from location to location is amazing! Wouldn't have been able to do it any other way! Thanks Victoria!"

"Moving to NYC is quite the challenge. Fortunately, my employer referred me to Next Step Realty. We looked into it and felt good about using Next Step to find housing. We set up an appointment with our broker, Grace. She prepared a list of about 10 apartments to see on our tour. We were able to find a great place for us in our budget. Grace was very professional and fun to work with. Overall, I had a great experience with Next Step and would recommend using it!"

"Samantha was such a pleasure to work with! My boyfriend and I gave her a pretty comprehensive list of amenities we were looking for and the locations we'd like to live and Samantha took the time to talk to us and understand our priorities and find us our perfect home. The Next Step experience was a pleasure as well. Going from showing to showing in a luxury SUV meant we could just focus on the places we were seeing and not worry about transit over the course of the day. Finding real estate in New York City is a lot of work, but Samantha, through her hard work and experience, made the apartment search process fun and easy!"
