I have nothing but praises for Ron Hornsby at Argo. He helped us navigate our lease application, execution and checked in on us right through move in. He made a very stressful time as smooth as possible. He's the best to work with. read more

We worked with Jodi Nath throughout the apartment application process, and she was phenomenal! From start to finish, she stayed on top of every detail and guided us through the process in a timely and professional manner. The application process was quite lengthy, but Jodi was incredibly patient with all of our questions and always made sure we had everything we needed to keep things moving forward. She was responsive, communicative, and easy to work with, promptly answering our questions and providing support whenever needed. We truly appreciate Jodi's dedication, professionalism, and strong work ethic. Her guidance and commitment made a potentially stressful process much smoother, and we are grateful for all of her help in securing our apartment. We highly recommend working with her! read more

Ron Hornsby at Argo was a fantastic realtor, who helped me navigate the sale of my co-op apartment. He was kind, professional, and went the extra mile on several occasions to make the process go smoothly. I highly recommend working with him! read more

Jodi Nath is very professional and cares about her clients. She is prompt with her replies and willing to help you. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience. read more

Lian Lebret is a fantastic real estate agent and, most importantly, incredibly kind, trusting, and the epitome of professionalism. Working with Lian and Argo Real Estate was a superb experience! Lian was there every step of the way throughout my apartment application process. She answered every question and concern that I had. She treated me as a human being, aka not making the conversation transactional, and instead had me feel heard, acknowledged, and prioritized. Additionally, she assisted my guarantor, my brother, and me when applying for the apartment. Contracts can be confusing, and Lian helped us throughout the process and gave outstanding, positive energy! She would group text, call, and walk us through the application step-by-step and was always available to respond in superhero speed.  Saving the best for last, Lian texted me on moving day, congratulating me and wishing me all the best. Lian remembered my move-in date and is available even after for follow-up questions like Super Information, etc., which made my experience with Lian and Argo Real Estate phenomenal.  I cannot express enough the wonderful experience I had. Lian made this process (which can be super overwhelming and intimidating) go as smoothly and supported as possible.  I will ask Lian to be my agent // Argo Real Estate if I ever need to move again! I highly recommend working with Lian Lebret// Argo Real Estate when looking//hunting for an apartment in NYC. I cannot say enough wonderful things- Lian gives VIP treatment to all her clients! read more

I have worked with Jodi for many years and she has always been professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend her highly to anyone looking to work with a realtor who knows the business well and will help both buyer/seller and renter/landlord find the best possible situation for everyone. read more

Jodi was a pleasure to work with. She's extremely communicative and follows through at every point throughout the sometimes arduous process of purchasing. read more

This review is for Mara. She was very communicative and made sure everything was executed quickly. Thank you so much for helping us navigate through our application process and relieving a lot of stress read more

I'd like to heartily encourage anyone to work with Lian Lebret for a superior experience. In our decade in the city, we've gone it alone, worked with the agency founded by a Shark Tank host, and with Argo's Lian and she is, by far, the best broker I've met. Our most recent move was within units in the same Argo building. So I have seen Lian operate over the years before I needed her. I frequently saw her in our lobby or walking about the building; I actually thought she was a resident with a pied a terre. She shows up. She's got gumption, initiative, and, frankly, just gets it done. She was always filming something, showing something, or trying to understand the innards of our building. She's also fast and can move at New York speeds if you want to. I reached out to her early one morning (about 0500) when I saw the unit I wanted, she texted back at 0900 and, thanks to my preparation, the unit was off the market and we were handing over checks 32 hours later. Having concluded the deal, Lian continued to advocate for us again and again. Bumps and hiccups on document signoff, she was there; bumps and hiccups around moving on the holidays, she was there; recommending a (good!) mover, she had the ins. Lian does her job amazingly, but she also does the work of 2-3 adjacent jobs that you always WISHED someone were managing. All renters get a little well...grouchy around brokers fees. But Lian brought so much value that I can actually see where a real, substantive, beneficial service was offered. I hope you have the chance to benefit from her expertise. She's not about a contract, she's about helping you find your new home. read more

My husband and I must have looked at over 20 units until we finally came across the apt listed by Lian. Lian was the broker on that listing and she was great! She was very responsive and helped us throughout the whole process. We had an amazing experience working with her. I highly recommend working with her as she will help put your mind at ease during a stressful process. read more

Great management company. On the leasing side, Lian was a pleasure to work with - she was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable. On the management side, the whole team has been very supportive and helpful after move-in. read more

Jodi Nath of Argo helped me rent out my co-op apartment in Queens. I have met Jodi several years ago when I was apt shopping and remembered her as very professional and helpful and decided to work with her to rent my place. Jodi came by my apt after we discussed the rental and suggested a reasonable price to rent my apt, answered my questions and made suggestions about improving the rental chances and we agreed to get in touch when I was ready to start showing the apt - as I was moving away. The process took a little longer than I expected due to finding and screening of the right candidates to make sure they would be board approved and then the board approval time, Jodi did an excellent job of keeping in touch and working with the tenant, board and me to expedite things. read more

Linda Lepson was my agent for the purchase of my apartment. She was very helpful throughout the process and very professional and knowledgeable. It was a great experience and I highly recommend her! read more

Just signed a lease with Argo for an amazing home. Lian Lebret was my real estate agent and she was ABOVE AND BEYOND. Truly the most professional, easy-going, kind and attentive human I have ever done business with in real estate. She helped me get my dream apartment. I am so grateful. It was the gentlest experience and her skill and personality were both as classy as it gets. read more

This was the first apartment my partner and I were looking at. Lian completely gave us the confidence that we were in the right spot and made us feel that we were thinking about things in the right way. As stressful as NYC apartment hunting can be, she made it so that none of that was a factor. We wouldn't have landed on our apartment or been able to get it done so quickly without her! read more

We have worked with Jodi from Argo for the past 9 years. Very professional and well connected with the real estate community. Always quick with the communications and responses. She gets the job done always! read more

In a city where working with realtors can be a really difficult experience, Lian Lebret is a treat to work with. Lian is knowledgeable, great with follow-through, perceptive, and extremely quick! Though I'm sure she had plenty going on at the time (who doesn't), she was available to answer every question, and communicated promptly and clearly throughout the process of renting our apartment. She was very hospitable with everything from showing the apartment to handing in the checks, and beyond that, she championed our application through to management in a short timeframe. She's straightforward, thorough, and really a pleasure to work with. We were so thankful to be in good hands, and I wholeheartedly recommend working with her. Thank you, Lian! read more

Argo is extremely unprofessional! DO NOT RENT THROUGH ARGO! I had a lease with Argo and it was a nightmare. Deborah Segal is the absolute worst!! to work with. She is hard to get ahold of, doesn't respond to urgent emails, and would actively look for ways to charge you to make a quick buck. 6 out of our 12-month lease she tacked on unsubstantiated "Legal Fees" charges hidden in my bill and luckily I wasn't on autopay or else I would have never seen these extra charges. After fighting with her for days she dropped the $1400 "Legal Fee" charge. Then put it onto my next month's bill and didn't tell me about it. (THIS HAPPENED OVER AND OVER!!!). IF YOU HAVE A DOG, they say they're "a dog-friendly building", but they literally forced me to clean up minor wet dog paw prints throughout the hallway instead of doing their weekly vacuuming. THE ABSOLUTE WORST PART OF ARGO/DEBORAH SEGAL IS THEY HAVE NO PROBLEM KNOWINGLY VIOLATING THE LAW. They'd charge me a $50 "Late fee" if I was even a day late on payments. But when it came to them being late on giving me my Security Deposit back (14-day limit). They still haven't. I'm needing to hire lawyers to make them FOLLOW THE LAW and give me back my money. Never rent through Argo and never rent in a building with DEBORAH SEGAL, DESERY MARTINEZ, OR MARINA HIGGINS. Trust me, they will make your stay miserable and try and make money off of you in the short term instead of trying to keep you as a customer to try and get you to extend your lease with them. read more

I had an amazing experience working with Linda Lepson. Her professionalism and determination had helped with the process of securing my new home . She had been there for me through the entire process of applying and had helped me each step of a way . She had literally turn impossible into possible and I can't thank her enough for my new place I had met many brokers before but I feel so grateful that Linda was the one who took care of my housing application. read more

Jodi Nath is an outstanding real estate. Professional from start to finish! She expertly walked me through the process of selling my apartment and got it done in a timely manner. I highly recommend her! read more

Words cannot explain how thankful I am for finding Lian Lebret. She is by far the best broker in NYC. She is extremely responsive and cares about you as a client. Compared to other brokers that I have worked with, she is not pushy to make you sign and provides a ton of information to make a comfortable decision. Along with that, management makes the process smooth without the hassle that other companies put on you. I would without a doubt recommend her to anyone looking to rent and will be using her again if needed. read more

Lian Lebret is, without a doubt, one of the best brokers I have worked with in NYC. She is incredibly professional and always available to answer any questions. Most importantly, she genuinely cares about her clients and understands that renting a home is a significant decision in people's lives. Lian approaches the process with care and compassion, making everything smoother. I cannot say enough amazing things about her. Thanks to her, this next move is already shaping up to be the best one yet. read more

I have dealt with Jodi Nath at Argo. She was extremely unprofessional, unethical, greedy, shady, unresponsive and obnoxious. I will be filling the formal complaints of her misconduct with Realtor association, equal housing commission and other appropriate authorities. I recommend anyone who is looking to deal with this company and most importantly with the agent, Jodi Nath to think twice or look elsewhere. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Lian L from Argo Realty and would absolutely recommend putting your property needs in her hands. Lian was able to show us a listing of an apartment the day that the listing posted; she was communicative and accommodating to scheduling. During the tour, you can tell Lian has long and far reaching industry knowledge and was not someone to spout nonsense to sell. After having seen numerous listings all over the city and worked with various brokers, I can confidently say that she was the most genuine and caring agent. After our tour, we knew the unit we saw would not last long on the market so we immediately let Lian know we were interested in renting. She was extremely communicative and helpful in the entire application process. Thank goodness too as there was another application interested right after us! But Lian truly gave us the white glove service through the entire process to help us get our application approved in a quick turnaround. I only have good things to say about my experience with Argo and Lian specifically - I truly truly recommend working with her; you will have a fantastic experience! read more

Lian was incredibly responsive and attentive throughout my process, especially in a fast turnaround. She was very communicative and transparent with me throughout - helping me to stay organized and to advocate for what I needed. I would definitely work with Lian again when looking to move in NYC! read more

When it came to getting the perfect apartment for me - Ron was not only able to get me in contract quickly but help me get it under asking. Ron was gracious and patient with me regarding any questions or concerns I had during the process. His knowledge and expertise made the process smooth and the board process even smoother. From beginning to end the experience was a joy and I couldn't be happier with my new home. I would definitely recommend Ron to anyone looking to buy an apartment. read more

Linda Lepson was really great to work with! She understood our needs and helped us find the apartment of our dreams! I would whole heartedly recommend her: kind, communicative, honest and trustworthy. read more

The actual rating is negative 1000, instead of 1 star. Argo at the NY office and its associates (property managers, administration, Jodi Nath) are scum and crooks. They do not care for the tenants and co-op shareholders while maintenance fees and unnecessary assessments are raised and issued for no positive progress. Numerous calls about building problems were not thoroughly answered and not handled effectively to fix those problems. To them, occupants pay maintenance for no productive results. Jodi Nath have said and will say any lie for the sale of the co-op. She feels she can speak for the building staff and tell you that any home problem will be fixed by that staff, which is absolutely NOT TRUE. She does NOT speak for the staff after me personally speaking to those employees. The Department of Housing Protection Development had to be called and was called to report structural defects, which Argo did not take care of properly for more than 18 months. Michael Rudolph, who was with Thurman Verona, is a complete dumbass and other occupants agreed also. He was still on the payroll as a consultant, which was another example of wasted money from crooked activity. His fellow dumbass pal, Barry Reiss (a building board president), backed him up for that without any legitimate reasons. Reiss shows no concern for the feedback and issues from the occupants. read more

Lian was extremely efficient. I have only good things to say about her. I found an apartment that I liked and I knew the apt will be gone within 48 hours. I connected with Lian from Streeteasy posting. She was nice enough to do a video tour the same day that I reached out. I signed the lease shortly and moved in after ~2 weeks. Lian was especially helpful since I needed a lease signed quickly while I was physically in another state and she was so on top of everything. The agent fee is well-spent. Re: Argo management. Mostly good but also very annoying related to its partnership with RCN. The building is well managed: very clean common laundry room and mailroom. The only big downside is its partnership agreement with Internet provider RCN. and RCN is much worse than Spectrum. You are coerced to sign a deal with RCN quickly such that a technician can come and activate the internet. Ordinarily, I would plug in my modem to the cable without a technician's help. But the apartment has internet cable at the most inconvenient location (almost like intentionally cuz I cannot be the first tenant in the unit) such that you need a technician to drill a hole in the wall and re-do some cable work. And since the building has a partnership with RCN, RCN technicians could come in quickly in a day to do the work, but you are then committed to their service. Spectrum wouldn't do that on such short notice. So if you don't sign on with RCN, you are stuck with no internet for at least a week+. Because of how bad RCN's service was ( especially the pushy sales - Joel R.), it dented my impression on Argo which otherwise is great. read more

Lian Lebret was great to deal with; professional and friendly. Very responsive, quick to help, and followed up / followed through with action items. Smooth transaction. read more

I highly recommend Lian at Argo Residential. After moving from SF to NY, I needed to find an apartment quickly. When I reached out to Lian about her listing she was an extremely thoughtful and speedy communicator. She's also very kind! Throughout the application process she helped digitize my application when I didn't have a printer and advised on how I could reduce my application fees. Lian is an exceptional broker and I highly recommend working with her! read more

Jodi made my apartment search a breeze! I found the perfect spot and couldn't be happier. She was responsive, professional, patient and an all around pleasure to work with. Thank you Jodi and everyone at Argo! read more

Working with Lian @ Argo Residential made our UWS apartment search an amazing experience. Never thought I would actually enjoy looking for an apartment in New York. Lian was passionate, kind, and patient. She truly got to know our family and genuinely cared about making sure our place was the right fit for us. Something you can't say about most realtors in the city. I wish every NYC apartment search was this enjoyable; five stars doesn't do Lian justice! read more

We recently moved within our building, and our Argo broker, Linda, was incredibly helpful and informative throughout the process. She really understood what we were looking for and found places both within and outside of our building that fit our needs. She even negotiated (VERY successfully) on our behalf to get our dream apartment for us! We're so comfortable in our Argo building and are looking forward to many more happy years here. read more

We met Christian during our apartment search as Covid lockdowns were lifting. We had been connected with him through an online platform and met at a wonderful building on West End on the Upper West Side where he showed us several units, and one unit in particular (9D) that we fell in love with. We had only started our apartment search the week before, but for weeks after meeting Christian, as we saw more apartments all over Manhattan, we could not escape the thought of living in 9D. The unit felt so right and Christian's communication wasn't pushy or cagey as we have experienced with other agents. In the end, we decided to sign a lease in Long Island City, but I'm sure that we'll talk about 9D as 'the one that got away' and the next time we move, we'll be calling up Christian to see which apartment buildings he is representing. read more

I was so pleased to have chosen Linda lepson as my agent. She took me to ever so many places, some that she found for me and some that I was interested in looking at. She was very patient and supportive all along the way. She truly went above and beyond to help me find a place that I loved. She showed up everywhere with a great attitude and I came to trust her quickly. She would always make herself available as soon as she could every time I reached out. She was quick to respond and her answers were very helpful and fruitful for me. I'm very grateful I found her. read more

I just closed on an apartment and can't say enough good things about Lian. She was always available, kind, and had a killer instinct for the market. She did a really fabulous job guiding me through this entire process and I can't thank her (and her team) enough. Anyone considering buying a place in Manhattan needs her on their side. This process would have been very very very stressful without her. read more

We are so grateful to Ron, our wonderful Argo realtor, for helping us find our family's new home. Ron was communicative, supportive, and helpful throughout the home buying process. He helped make sure we had the people we needed on our team and the right information to make sure the purchase went smoothly. Buying a home can be such a giant headache, and with Ron's help, it was much less stressful than it could have been. We highly recommend working with him and Argo! read more

Ron was great to work with. He is knowledgeable and provides excellent service to his clients. He went above and beyond to ensure the successful closing of our apartment sale. We highly recommend working with Ron! read more

Ron at Argo was a pleasure to deal with. He made renting out our apartment, a process that can be quite challenging, simple and easy -- from drafting the lease to dealing with the coop board. Ron was professional and always in contact with us. I cannot recommend him highly enough. read more
