Emilio Martinez

Emilio is an honest, punctual, easygoing, hardworking broker. Full disclosure --- he only showed us 1 apartment --- but that was more a reflection of our budget and the inventory available where we were looking. Throughout the whole process of setting up the viewing, meeting up and going through the apartment, answering all of our questions afterward, negotiations with the landlord, and the actual signing of the lease, Emilio was a pleasure to work with. In our apartment search, we looked at 23 apartments in with over 10 brokers, and I've gotta say, Emilio's easygoing attitude and total transparency put them all to shame. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a place in NYC.

Haven't rented yet but so far he's been very quick and responsive.

Emilio is totally free of the broker-itis syndrome that seems to run rampant in NYC. NOt only was he always early to every appointment we had with him, he was friendly and never pushy. What I like about Emilio most is that he gives you things straight up.. never oversells a place or tries to spin a listing into something that it's not! Bottom line is that Emilio is the quintessential un-broker: punctual, courteous, genuine & trustworthy. If you've looked for an apartment with your typical NYC broker before then you know how much of a rarity this is!

Emilio was a great broker to work with for a number of reasons: 1) he was on time, even early, to show us the apartment 2) he recommended several other apartments worth looking at to help minimize our search 3) he wasn't pushy or tried to oversell the apartment we ended up taking, even suggesting we think about it over the night. Emilio greatly minimized the stress of finding an apartment in the city and was kind and thoughtful to all of our needs and periodically checked-in with us throughout the leasing process. He's a great broker and I would recommend working with him for your apartment search.
