Parish Pradhan

Parish was good, although I was passed off to a junior agent. They tried to work with me but could not accommodate my needs. I would try to work with him again, though.

To Whom It May Concern:

Since time immemorial, I’ve sought my ideal NYC apartment: one that is spacious, relatively inexpensive, pet-friendly, and endowed with an indoor heated swimming pool. In the attempt, I’ve engaged numerous and sundry brokers. To get right to the point, almost all have failed.

Almost. The one exception is Parish Pradhan, who succeeded well beyond the expectations of a client who had become inured to the countless disappointments of an aspirant to the good life in Midtown Manhattan. The result is that I now dwell in a residence to which I refer as “The Bomb”: in a building that should be named – simply – as The Bomb.

Reasons are legion.

Mr. Pradhan is prompt, personable, creative, unbelievably diligent, well-connected, and in general so effective that – if anything, in my estimation, and while clearly believing in himself –
1)…he has understated his overall competence – a scenario that is admittedly difficult to overcome with a client who had previously not known of him – and
2)…as a result, he has never fully exploited his competitive superiority.

As a Ph.D. business strategy and management professor, an organizational behavior researcher and writer, and a former advertising copy-writer – and in order to buttress and enhance his merited success in his chosen field – I’ve sought ways in which I can help to market Mr. Pradhan. It is to be hoped that this endorsement is a useful first step.

To apply this recommendation, I urge you to regard and treat Mr. Pradhan as the eminent first-liner that he has proven to be.

I appreciate your time and your consideration, and wish my best: both for him and – as an organization who has chosen him wisely – for you as well.

Cheers…

Parish was very quick to respond and friendly in doing such. He had a great listing to show.

Relocating and finding an apartment in a short time frame in just the right location seemed almost impossible and overwhelming. But Parish made it happen! Parish provided me with multiple options, and acted in a professional, informative, and courteous manner. I would highly recommend Parish if you are anticipating a move to NYC and in need of an apartment rental.

Parish is great! He is unassuming and not at all pushy... very helpful and patient. I would recommend him to anyone!

Recommended. He wasn't pushy at all, and he did an excellent job searching for apartments that matched my criteria.

Parish is a great broker! He was polite and very knowledgeable. He responded promptly to my questions and scheduled viewings as soon as I arrived in NYC from abroad. We spent about three hours viewing all the apartments he lined up, and to my surprise each and every one fit my budget and criteria. He guided me during the application process from beginning to end with patience. I highly recommend Parish to everyone, especially new and international renters. A+

He was always positive and enthusiastic, in a good mood, not pushy. Never showed me anything I would never consider. Always on time, and extremely patient ! His pleasant attitude made apartment hunting extremely easy in the sweltering heat. I recommend him highly ....

Parish was great from the beginning. He gave us good advice about how and when we should start looking, and when the time was right, he came prepared with a long list of apartments to show us. We fell in love with the second place we saw, and even though it was on the low end of our budget, Parish told us honestly that it was the best of what he had that fit our criteria. For the next few weeks, we were in constant contact with Parish as he helped us make our way through the co-op board approval process, and I'm happy to report that the lease at our new home starts this week. While no one ever wants to think about the next move, when the time comes, I'm certain we will call Parish to help us again.

Parish was an excellent broker from beginning to end! Prompt response and very insightful into what I had described as my 'ideal place to move.' I even sent him photos of my current apartment and told him to find anything as similar as possible; and that he did! By the second showing alone I already had a favorite place! We ended up looking at about 10 or 12 apartments total and each and every single one of them was according to what I had described and what I was looking for (even in regards to my budget). In a week's time I already have my new awesome place on 57th street and couldn't be happier for how everything turned out! If you're looking for a broker's help to move to NYC, don't hesitate and get in touch with Parish! YOU WON'T REGRET IT! Great service all around!

Parish was great to work with and always responsive to any questions that I had (and I had many!)

I didnt end up renting an apartment from him because I ended up being able to renew my lease, BUT when the time comes next year, I will surely be contacting him again.

Great broker, found exactly what we were looking for. He had a few apartments to show us- all of them fitted our criteria. Didn't waste our time, did an amazing job quickly and we just picked the apartment we liked best. Stress free experience. Thanks Parish!

Parish was a pleasure to work with. He helped answer all of my, my roommate's, and my parents' questions quickly and efficiently. He showed me appointments that fit my requirements and went out of his way to make sure that I was satisfied. I will definitely work with him in the future, as he provided outstanding service. I will recommend him to anyone and everyone moving to NYC!

Parish was a pleasure to work with. He promptly returned my phone call within minutes of leaving him a voice message and scheduled apartment viewings the very next day. He was courteous and listened to my requirements, and only showed me apartments that fit my needs and my budget. He was also very helpful with explaining the application process. He found me a great apartment on the Upper East Side within 2 days and under budget! I can’t thank him enough for making my first renting experience so easy and worry free. I will recommend him to all my friends and anyone looking to rent in Manhattan!!

When I first contacted Parish, his response was very prompt, and asked me what I was looking for and if I had ever rented in NYC (which is no). He was courteous enough to walk me through the NYC rental process, which is much different than anywhere else.

Parish put me in contact with Rachel, one of his team members, who was extremely helpful by narrowing down my search and showing me only the best apartments that fit my budget and location. She showed me a few apartments, which were all amazing and fit my criteria, making the decision even harder. She made me feel very comfortable about moving and helped me make the final decision, making sure I got the best deal and apartment possible.

All in all, I would highly recommend working with Parish and his team (The Pradhan Group), they were the most kind and helpful brokers I've ever worked with.

Responded initially. Provided decent information by telephone. Set up appointment to view apartments and then never heard anything from him. Disappointing experience. Another typical NYC broker.

Very helpful and super nice! I didn't end up renting an apartment with Parish, but wish I had. He was always quick to respond and his follow-up was extraordinary.

About a week before my girlfriend and I planned to go apartment hunting in NYC we contacted a number of brokers who had 5 star reviews on Naked Apartments. We only had a few days to look for apartments and we knew that finding the right broker was critical. It became clear quickly that Parish was not only knowledgeable about the process but also genuine in his willingness to help us. In the week leading up to our arrival we exchanged daily e-mails with Parish and he always answered our questions fully and promptly (usually within a few hours, even late in the evening). He also made sure we came prepared with the correct financial documents to ensure that the application process would go smoothly.

As we are not from the area, the first afternoon we met with Parish he showed us different types of apartments that we could get within our price range, and in the neighborhoods that we requested. Because we didn't find anything to our liking, Parish invited us back to his office to look at listings with him so that we could see what else was out there.

The second day, Parish used the knowledge he gathered from our first day of searching to select apartments he felt we would like, and the results were great! Parish was always patient in answering our questions and never pressured us. He was objective in all of his guidance so that we could make whichever decision was best for us, not him.

We ended up finding the perfect apartment for us in the Upper West Side after only looking for a day and a half. We were lucky to end up with this apartment because Parish got us the first appointment to see it, and we were able to apply before the next viewing. We had been extremely worried about being able to find an apartment in such a short time but Parish made us feel at ease and he worked extremely hard to make it happen for us. We would recommend Parish to anyone out there who needs a great broker!

We sincerely regretted not being able to go through Parish for our rental. His preparation level was absolutely unmatched among the various brokers we worked with. He was exremely attentive to our needs and preferences, and showed us places that suited us very well.

If we had rented in Manhattan, we absolutely would have rented through Parish. However, we were able to find a place in Brooklyn, where we wanted to be, instead.

I will simply say this: our wish to reward Parish for his hard work and dedication was a part of why the decision was so difficult. I would heartily and without reservation recommend him to anyone looking for a place on the Upper West or Upper East Side.

Searching for an apartment in NYC can be challenging and exhausting, but Parish made this an easy and enjoyable process. He was patient, positive and upbeat throughout the search. He contacted me immediately and had 8 apartments lined up for viewing a day later. With his help I found an amazing one bedroom apartment on the UWS in a great building within ONE day and under budget!!! Look no further for a broker, 5 stars are not enough!!! Thanks Parish!!!

Parish is an amazing broker. I will recommend him without any hesitation. He was extremely helpful during my apartment search which was not an easy one. My criteria were quite strict, I was looking for a newly renovated studio with a separate kitchen, dishwasher, laundry in the building in West Village and within a reasonable budget! He made this almost unrealistic expectations came true. He showed me more than 25 apartments without being impatient or trying to trick me with the stereotypical broker attitude. I am very happy to have worked with him. Thanks Parish!

Parish and his associate William both worked very hard with me to show me as many different apartments in my general price range. While I ended up spending more that I had planned on an apartment, I'm very happy with my choice. They made a complicated process for an out-of-towner much easier.

didn't see listing yet!

Parish was a great broker to work with. He was professional, on time and very considerate in terms of trying to learn and understand about your situation. He was personable and does a great job of picking places for you to look at. I would recommend him to anyone because he is just easy and awesome to work with.
