The difference

Typical NYC brokerages

  • Growth and revenue prioritized over service
  • Generic mission statements, same claims
  • Pressure to decide before you're ready
  • Hard to reach after the first showing
  • One-size-fits-all neighborhood advice
  • Opaque fee structures
  • Template websites with stock photos
  • Agents who don't know the building

Honest — and they don't pressure you.

The bottom line is: These guys are honest and they don't make you feel like you're being pressured into a decision.

A high standard for customer service.

I've worked with City Wide Apartments as a landlord and co-broking agent for 10+ years and the boutique firm holds a high standard for customer service and satisfaction. Compared to other NYC brokerage firms where growth and revenue is the priority, for the owner Mike Jacobs, it has always been quality of service.

Colleen made finding my dream apartment easy.

I worked with Colleen Grate who helped me find my dream apartment in NYC. She was beyond easy to work with, made my life easier by vetting apartments and viewing listings for me to ensure it was worth my time.
