Isaiah was very professional in finding me a home. I can sometimes be difficult to work with because I need everything in writing and Isaiah was patient! He reached out regularly as the middle man to keep me updated.
Isaiah was recommended to me by a friend for help with a lease break. I was so impressed with him! He made the process of navigating my lease break and finding a new tenant during COVID-19 as painless as possible. Isaiah is a creative thinker, an expert about the NYC market, and provided excellent client service. What I appreciated most is his communication with me; I was a pretty neurotic client, always wanting follow-up and asking questions. Isaiah gave me the care that I needed and carried the load of managing tons of moving pieces on his end without me feeling any stress. I highly recommend Isaiah without reservation!
Isaiah worked very hard on our behalf to find us an apartment. Isaiah and Sean have a system of finding apartments that works great. Highly recommended!.
Great experience top to bottom, and made the whole process super easy

Isaiah was so helpful in my apartment search! He was patient and knowledgeable. I was struggling to find an apartment, but Isaiah made the process much easier and provided me with all the information and resources I needed.
Isaiah was a fantastic broker that went well above what we expected. He took the time over 2 days to not only show us apartments tailored to our responses to other showings, but also helped us understand the market. He was always available for us and further would vet any other properties we had seen on our own to find any potential issues with them. If anyone needs a broker I highly recommend him.
Isaiah was so helpful and friendly. He worked hard to accommodate my specific needs on an extremely tight schedule. He was even able to get my rent lowered to accommodate my budget. The whole process was very smooth. I highly recommend Isaiah to help you find an apartment.
As a first-time renter and newcomer to NYC, I had such a positive experience with CitiHabitats. After trying and failing for days to find an apartment in my price range using StreetEasy, PadMapper, etc to connect with other brokers, this company was like a breath of fresh air. Extremely professional and organized - really made me feel like I was in good hands. Every step of the process felt transparent and un-scammy. They really worked with me patiently despite my own unique obstacles (paperwork issues, banking troubles, etc. - I was probably not the easiest client and yet they did not bat an eyelash).
My initial and primary contact at CitiHabitats was Isaiah Dunn, who was attentive, friendly, professional, and generally made me feel comfortable and taken care of. He expertly took us from place to place and was really consistent about teasing out my specific apartment needs, likes, dislikes etc. to give me the best possible experience.
During the whole process, Isaiah kept up a stream of contact with his colleagues back at the office - Louis Tsai and Sabra Nasri - communicating my needs in real time so that they could do research, make calls, etc on my behalf. Louis and Sabra were both incredibly friendly and efficient - they answered all the questions I had and really made me feel like they were on my side, not just trying to sell me the first apartment that came along.
If you can afford the brokers fee (~15% of a year’s rent, depending) I would highly recommend CitiHabitats to my friends and family who are apartment hunting in NYC.
