Tony Messina was the easiest broker to work with. I have worked with several brokers of the year and have never found someone who truly wanted to help and was actually being honest with me. With my share of brokers, I have come to know that you end up wasting a lot of time looking at apartments that are clearly out of your budget (so that they can push you to, hopefully, up your budget).
With Tony, it was easy from the start. I told him exactly what I wanted... a 2 bedroom/1 bedroom flex apartment in the financial district with a certain budget. He out did my expectations. The first apartment that he showed my roommate and I was the one we signed for right away. Of course he showed us other options... but with how fast apartments fly in NY, we knew we found what we needed and didn't need to look further. Not only did we get a 1 bedroom flex but a doorman building with high ceilings and large windows in our apartment. The best part is we were about $200 under our maximum budget.
Tony Messina is definitely the broker I recommend for anyone looking for an apartment that doesn?t want to waste time. I know when it is time for me to move again, I won't be calling anyone else.
