I wish I had the option to give 0 stars, and if it were possible, I would.

New York habitat is quick to collect agent commission but slow to respond to your needs and communication. I would never recommend using New York Habitat. While the website is rather easy to follow, contacting agents is of no help. Tamara Chevdar was not a responsive agent. When I called New York Habitat and asked to change agents, they asked why. I told them that I wanted someone more responsive. Then, their receptionist mistakenly included me on an email indicating to the manager that I had requested a new agent.

Why does the manager include my original agent on an email two days later? They really don't seem to be organized at all.

I also don't understand how something can no longer be available ten minutes after I indicate wishing to see the unit, but then available two days later.

Brokers in general are a bit sleazy here in New York, but New York Habitat wins the award for being the worst! If you're going to invest in finding an apartment in New York, look somewhere else.
