Editorial context
Working with a provider in New York – what matters
When choosing a real estate broker in New York, first establish which service you need: finding a home, letting a property you own, buying or selling, or assessing an investment. Alpha Properties NYC lists several of these activities. Before engaging the firm, ask who would handle your assignment, what experience they have with the relevant property type and which services are included. The applicable real estate license should also be checked.
For prospective tenants, actual availability, move-in dates, lease length and total costs are important. For furnished properties, clarify the furnishings provided and the contract term. Before submitting personal documents, confirm the application procedure and required supporting evidence. If a guarantor is needed, ask about the requirements early. The forms and rental information listed on the website can provide a starting point.
Owners should discuss how marketing, viewings and applicant communication will be handled. For retail or office space, the intended use and suitability of the premises also require attention. Anyone considering the advertised limited-duration investments should request clear information about the term, costs, risks and exit arrangements. Return claims are not a substitute for independent assessment.
Reviews can offer insights into communication and procedures, but they do not establish suitability for every assignment or guarantee future results. These points provide general orientation, not legal advice.

Erika Criollo and Alpha properties made my daughter’s move into Manhattan extremely customer friendly and thoughtful. She was on top of everything, thoroughly providing us with how to fill out the application and coordinating paperwork that went along with it so we could get the apartment we wanted! She was so helpful with introductions to the best people to assist with the move and even answered our questions after we were already approved for the property. I highly recommend working with this agent and this property group, especially if you are a guarantor needing a property for your child. We are very happy with the entire process. Thank you SO much Erika!!
This real estate agent provided outstanding service throughout my entire property journey. They were highly professional, responsive, and very knowledgeable about the local market. They carefully understood my needs and only showed properties that truly matched my requirements. Their advice during negotiations was extremely helpful and helped me secure a great deal. Communication was always clear and timely, and the entire process felt smooth and stress-free. I would confidently recommend their services to anyone.
After weeks of searching, I finally found my apartment! Rachel was great to work with — she responded to emails right away and always made sure I had all the information I needed. The whole process was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!
Sunny Zachi made finding and signing on an apartment so easy and effortless! Sunny was extremely thorough in explaining the process and showing the space, showing up on time, and being responsive to my questions. I would absolutely recommend Alpha Properties to anyone. I felt like I was in good hands with someone that wanted the best for the property and the tenant. Thank you! I'm so excited to be moving into my dream apartment!
Sharon was incredible! Found us our dream apartment for no fee after we inquired on a different listing of his. Incredibly thorough and professional broker who was so supportive of our move to the city. Couldn’t be happier!

Services in this field explained
A valuation estimates the price a property can achieve on the market, based on location, condition, size, fittings and comparable sales.
What does a valuation cost? Many agents offer an initial estimate free of charge. A formal market value report by a certified surveyor is paid; the fee depends on the property and effort.
When you sell, an agent handles valuation, exposé, viewings, negotiation and the notary appointment.
Who pays the agent's commission? When flats and single-family houses are sold to consumers, the commission is generally split between seller and buyer (§ 656c German Civil Code).
When letting, an agent takes care of listing, viewings, tenant selection and the tenancy agreement.
Who pays the agent when letting? Since 2015 the “orderer pays” principle applies to residential lettings: usually the landlord pays when they hired the agent.
