"My roommate and I came to Next Step after doing a bit of apartment searching on our own. We couldn’t have been more pleased we did. Matt Bauman, Erin Wilson, and everyone at Next Step was so incredibly helpful, accommodating, and enjoyable to work with and be around. Matt found us numerous apartments while also working with our requests to see places we had found on our own. He was available at all hours for our absurd questions and worries, and worked tirelessly with us to actual secure our apartment and make sure everything went smoothly with the application process and beyond. He was our advocate and liaison at every step and we truly don’t think we would have survived the process without him. Everyone else at Next Step was amazingly helpful and accommodating too. We seriously felt like everyone had our best interests at heart the entire time–something that definitely can’t be said for all NYC real estate brokers and companies. Cannot recommend highly enough!!!!!!!!"

"I had the BEST possible experience working with Victoria – both me and my mother (who’s lived in and around NYC her whole life and is a real-estate nerd) went in with what we considered realistic expectations, and were totally blown away! The apartments we saw made it clear that Victoria had really listened to my wants/needs and had zero agenda of her own (something I’ve unfortunately dealt with in the past). Really can’t recommend Victoria and Next Step enough – from start to finish, the process was smooth and even enjoyable. Victoria was super responsive whenever I had questions, and even checked in to see how the move went. I found my apartment on our first tour and moved in days later – I’m so happy in my new place, and will absolutely look to Next Step when it’s time to move again!"

"This is now the second time I have worked with Matt and the next step team and once again your experience and expertise are unparalleled. Me and my new roommates were able to find out “perfect apartment” due to there diligence and industry knowledge. Thanks next step!"

"Relocating from North Carolina, the New York apartment process seemed completely overwhelming. Once I found Next Step and connected with our agent, Michelle Calogero, a weight was lifted off my shoulders! I was still in North Carolina, but Michelle made the process so easy and made sure my roommate and I were completely prepared with all the necessary paperwork and documents to secure our new home in the city. She kept us updated during the entire process and was always available to answer any questions we had. My roommate took just one Saturday morning with Michelle to find our dream apartment on the Upper East Side in our budget and with everything we requested and more. I would recommend Next Step to anyone looking for an apartment in NYC."

"I had an amazing experience with Mary Kirby and Next Step Realty! The New York rental market is absolutely insane. Having someone like Mary by your side helping you navigate it makes the apartment hunt so much less stressful. Mary showed me apartments that met my needs and took me back to two of them for second viewings when I felt a little unsure. I’m really looking forward to moving into my new place next week! Thanks to everyone at Next Step Realty, and especially Mary Kirby for helping me find a beautiful apartment!"

"Working with Matt Bauman was a very pleasant experience. He made viewings and our lease signing quite convenient. More importantly, he was always willing to answer questions; no matter what they might be. My two roommates and I would definitely work with Matt again in the future."
