I had to move during the height of Covid when my landlord decided to turn my apartment into her art studio (thanks, Tina) and Michael Cohen helped me find a beautiful apartment, a block from the park for a great price - and no fee! He was an absolute pleasure to work with from the viewing through the lease signing and was even able to secure me a multi-year lease (you gotta lock in those Covid deals, ya know?!) This company also manages my building and I've had zero issues in the almost 8 months I've lived here. They send exterminators regularly (totally preventative - I've had zero pests) and Gary is super responsive anytime I've had a question or an issue with my apartment. A+!

We now have been with Slope Realty for a decade, growing our family and changing apartments along…read morethe way. They've been great the whole time. I like to think we've been good tenants (pay on time, follow rules, don't paint the kitchen pink, etc.) -- but they've also been great landlords. They fix things fast, give us ample notice with required maintenance, and accommodate various requests we have had within reason. I recommend Slope Realty and would definitely rent from them in the future as well.

Amazing level of service, Zealestate is a true professionals!…read more I was in situation when my moving date was in 6 days and i still haven't find my new place. Even if you have good credit score and money, it's still not easy to find a good place and have a reasonable realtor who can help you, there are so many details you need to know. I decided to give a try this company. First i got the call from Sam, he asked me what apartments i'm looking for and he sent me list with 5 places. They all were actually very good, I picked the one that was closest to my work and I scheduled showing. I met with Marvin and he was incredibly professional, honest and upfront. He answered to all my questions and showed me apartment, literally everything was clear and transparent for me. There was no weird feeling like with other agents I met recently and he was responding very fast to my messages. I applied in the evening and the next day in the morning i got the answer that I approved. It was very quick, specially when I didn't have much time left to find a new place, they just literally saved me! I wish I worked with them before in the beginning of the month, so I could save myself a lot of time and avoid so many problems with searching new places. Everything just went so smooth. Definitely recommend to everyone, you can rely on these guys. Everything went on high level of service and painless for me. Marvin and Sam, thank you again!

Unfortunately, my experience with Zealestate would receive zero stars if possible. It started off…read morefine. We enjoyed our apartment, but then Zealestate broker (Omar Saeed Butt) worked with our landlord to jack up prices in the final years. The tactics were bold and stressful. On multiple occasions Omar would come to our apartment after 11PM and tell us we would need to pay more. He would stand in our kitchen and rant for 30+ minutes about how he knew Mayor Adams and cared about us. These were intimidating and unnecessary. This is during our active lease! When we eventually left to buy our own place, Omar got involved with the landlord and they withheld a reference until we agreed to give them additional money beyond forfeiting our deposit and moving out weeks early. I typically don't leave reviews like this, but anyone considering working with Omar/Zealestate should think twice.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, I have had the experiences of being a Renter rather then a Home Owner…read moreall of my adult life. Of course there are problems living in a property owned or rented, but when a person rents they have the abilities to call for assistance to either the Landlord or Property Managment companies. I have had a few management companies running the apartment rentals I've occupied and I truly feel that the best experiences I have had so far has been with the most recent company BrownStone Management. The property isn't of newer construction, I'm sure the building is over 100 years old however, I do not hold BrownStone Management accountable for the problems inherent to the property, I do however hold them accountable for the repairs, upkeep and maintenance of the property. That said I feel as though they try to exceed my expectations of getting those matters addressed and satisfactorily completed in a very expedient way . And so far they have done that. I can think of horrible experiences I have had with other management companies, none of which can compare to any experiences in regard to BrownStone's services. Being a member of my tenants council I can also speak on behalf of most all the tenants of my building. If we have a problem, we call, they answer, and take action. Very simple. None of the tenants had to use Yelp to Bash the company, just contact them and voice our complaints. That simple. Every other property management should take lessons's from this company.

Our condo board had a very negative experience with this management company. Communication…read morethroughout our time working with them was consistently difficult, and interactions with the owner, Josh Blackman, were often condescending, rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. Rather than handling issues collaboratively or professionally, conversations frequently became adversarial and unnecessarily hostile. We ultimately decided to move on because we no longer felt comfortable working with a company that treated board members in this manner. We would strongly encourage other buildings to carefully consider professionalism, communication style, and transparency before signing with this company.

When we called Goldin Choice for help they could not have been more rude, and snarky. They blamed us for the issues without even taking a look at the problem. It's as though they couldn't muster the energy to be polite. I'm sure it's not fun taking calls from owners/renters with issues, but if that's not your thing you should find another job. Not the first time we've had problems, and can't think of an instance when they were ever helpful. Will try to do everything I can get ditch Goldin choice. Plan to run for the board if I have to.

From the time I met him to now the amounts of building he manages has expanded and even went on to managing commercial. I was referred to chezi by my friend and since using him to manage the units we have never had any problems. Any issues with tenants he has dealt with from going to court for representation or assisting with finding me someone to fix a small issue at a very cheap price. He's helped me a lot and I can not recommend him enough as a property manager. He also manages one of my cousins house after he had to relocate and goes above and beyond to ensure everything is in working condition and the tenants are happy. I definitely recommend if you need someone to manage a building, commercial property or residential property. Oh! And he's available ALL THE TIME which is great he always answered my questions or concerns very promptly and the tenants say the same!

Having lived in 5 different apartments under a variety of different property managers before Mr. Jones, I can say his communication and transparency is a rarity and refreshing change in New York. The quick responsiveness to address any questions and concerns I've had has been greatly appreciated. The unit we've moved into is a true gem in Clinton Hill, with some of the best value for my rent I've come across in all my apartment hunting. If you're looking for a trustworthy landlord, while feeling confident in the apartment you'd like to move into, look no further - you've found it.

I wish them the best of luck!

There was no application fee and complicated process, she kept the entire renting process transparent. It only took about 10 days for me to send all the documents and negotiate the lease. She made sure that all of my concerns are addressed, and the lease adjusted to my needs. According to her, she has worked with my landlord for 25 years. And the landlord is the best I've ever met, fixed and improved everything on the same day as I requested. Very attentive about my safety and comfort. I feel like I can really trust her. Both she and my new landlord are extremely professional but friendly. I couldn't ask for a better experience renting in nyc since I've encountered a ton of scammers and unprofessional brokers.

This property management company is essentially a slumlord. Elderly superintendents are unable to…read moredo their jobs, and maintenance rarely gets done in a timely manner. Building front door lock broken? They let that go unfixed for several months, security be damned. Big no-smoking signs are stenciled onto hallways on each floor, and yet tenants smoke with impunity. Want to report it to the super? Too bad, he & his son are the biggest offenders. Additionally, they don't have any full time staff available to be available during standard business hours and don't respond to emails quickly, making communication difficult. Finally, they engage in some dicey practices involving lease riders in gentrifying neighborhoods. Essentially, they make their tenants sign waivers saying that the "market value" of their unit is thousands of dollars more than the actual rent, meaning that come lease renewal time, they're able to raise the rent dramatically in a legal way, as it's just a % of the "market" rate for the unit. If possible, I would suggest avoiding this company. EDIT: I have been informed that they operate under several other different property management company names, but are all the same enterprise. Watch out for the following: Seventh Avenue Management Corp, AD Shaye, Sunset Slope Management

When you need something fixed with your apartment, the only way it gets done in a "timely manner" is when someone can stay home from work to let them in. As the tenant, you're left in the dark waiting to know when someone is coming even though the office has the keys from prior work and maintenance has had them at least 24 hours. Two of the women (names start with C & J because I don't want to incriminate them) in the office have been helpful, so I cannot fault them for the shortcomings of the company. Definitely not re-signing for another year. Would recommend anyone stay away. From the first review, this is under Sunset Slope Management, what seems to be part of the Brokat Builders family of companies in the area.
