Brick Real Estate

Absolutely horrible experience working with BRICK. DO not trust them, DO NOT pay $20 to have them review your application or run your credit. I worked with Elann and Robin, both of which were very sketchy and unhelpful. Robin who is the listing agent on most of their apartments barely wants to assist but wants to convince you that she is working on your apartment from the backend. She shared more than once their broker's "personal schedules" were too busy to schedule apartment viewings. Kept on coming up with excuses and delays on what was going on with the status of an application. Eventually, was told my application was declined with no real reason, as my application, credit, and guarantor's credit/income are way above average. Essentially, a huge waste of time and a waste of $20.

I would HIGHLY recommend Brick. After reading some reviews, I was a bit skeptical, but they were GREAT to work with and proves not to believe everything you read online. I worked with Janina and Jonathan and they were amazing. They showed me the actual apartment I wanted to see (not like these other big real estate companies that just jerk you around and pressure you to raise your budget) and I was able to apply the next day. I was approved an hour later, signed the lease the next day, and got the keys. This was the easiest and most painless process I have been through in getting an apartment thanks to them. They even took me back to the place after I signed the lease to let me measure it. Both Janina and Jonathan were nice, helpful, understanding, and overall great people. I genuinely fel

I was a little concerned reading the reviews on Brick. However, our experience with them was great. Elann and Robin were both communicative and helpful - Robin went beyond the call of duty to continue helping us communicate with our landlord and super long after the lease was signed. Maybe people working with Brick just aren't used to real estate in NYC, but we had a great experience and are now in an apartment we love thanks to them!

HORRIBLE STAY AWAY!! WILL JUST TAKE YOUR MONEY!!! I don't even have enough room here to write all the problems with this joke of an agency. No one, both renters and building managers, should EVER use these guys. Here's just a short list of the issues we've had to deal with: 1) We signed a lease for an apartment in process of renovations. Given all the complexities that come with new construction projects we wanted to make sure there was a detailed rider written for the lease agreement stating conditions under which construction needs to be complete, which our broker Freya said was no problem. At the lease signing, Freya was no where to be seen, and we were coldly and unprofessionally left with Robin, who honestly couldn't care less we were there. She hands us the lease that has nothing sti

This agency is listing an apartment currently at 65 Atlantic and calling it a 2 bedroom. One of the so called bedrooms is a basement with a very low ceiling. I would check out the legality on that before renting. Also, that basement has flooded. I would also recommend checking open igloo for information on the building. Several open violations reported.
