Leonard was the best!! From the start, he was very communicative and transparent. He was very easy to reach whenever we had questions and made the entire process of renting an apartment very smooth from start to finish. I would definitely recommend Leonard!

Leo did an amazing job setting me up in my new place. It was a painless process, and he kept me informed every step of the way. Would recommend working with him to anyone!

Leo was a lifesaver. He is prompt and works hard and is friendly and funny to boot! Not only am I moving to New York without ever having spent any real time here, my partner and I also have a whole litany of commute and lifestyle needs which seem sometimes to be in direct opposition to each other. Leo helped us find an absolute gem of a home, with enough space to accommodate working artist studios, with spacious balconies, and halfway between our two most important commutes. Tell him what you need and he’ll be right on it. Thank you Leo!

I had the opportunity to work with Leo Gilbert and I can recommend him enough. I am relocating from Chicago to New York. I needed a place that allowed me access to both Manhattan and a job in Long Island. Leo was able to navigate my myriad needs with ingenuity, thoughtfulness and good humor. Leo was great to work with, responsive and adaptable. The whole process was efficient and rewarding. He made a really challenging process quick and easy. I will happily work with Leo again in the future and I would urge anyone to work with him, as well.

Leo Gilbert helped me find my dream apartment! I had worked with several other realtors over the course of 2 months. When Leo reached out to me to help I was a little burned out. Within one week of working with Leo we found my apartment. He listened to all my details - budget and wild wishes included. He knew exactly what I was looking for and did not waste my time with numerous listings. Within 5 listings we found the right spot and I am still in shock with how quickly this happened. He also helped every single little step of the way from the finding the unit to explaining the paperwork and necessary steps and signing the lease. NYC is a ridiculously hard market to find the right spot in and Leo Gilbert truly went above and beyond to make sure all my needs were met and walk me through every step of the process. No question was too small for him, and he made himself available what feels like 24/7. Leo, thank you so much! I plan to recommend Leo to everyone I know looking to rent in the NYC area.

Leo really helped me out of a jam in finding a nice and affordable space. He was extremely reliable and available. I recommend him to anyone looking to rent an apartment.

Leo really cinched the deal for us! My partner and I absolutely fell in love with the apartment and Leo was able to close the deal for us with the owner and made all the difference in the world for us to get a place that we truly love - so proactive and communicative the whole process!

Leo was an enormous help with navigating the New York apartment search! From start to finish, Leo was a fast communicator and very knowledgeable. He worked hard to get me the first slot for viewing every apartment I was interested in seeing and made negotiations with the landlord's agents a breeze. He knows the market very well and assisted me in making an informed decision about my next home. He also was there to answer questions for me about my lease after he helped me get my application approved. I will absolutely call him again in my next apartment search, however far down the road that might be. Thank you Leo!

Leo was an amazing help when I was in a tight spot. When I unexpectedly had to move while in-between jobs, Leo found an apartment in his network that was in-budget for me before it even hit the market. He advocated for me, understood my living needs, and helped find the perfect match. Couldn’t have stayed in NY without him!

First of all shout outs to Leo . He was such a great help in my moving process . I emailed him one night because i was so desperate and he was able to show me a current place he had in my neighborhood and he was confident that will be the perfect match for my siblings and I. Leo was able to assist me with the application , gave me some insight on a third party guarantor. I would rate my experience a 10/10 and i will recommend everyone to work with him . He’s super patient, warm hearted and just a gem . Thank you again Leo .

Leo was very helpful for finding my new apartment! He was very flexible with scheduling and was always available to respond to a text or phone call. I will definitely reach out to him again in the future should I be in the market for a new rental!

Leo is such a pleasure in human form! His communication is my favorite thing about him, always kept me in the loop and made sure to contact me no matter how small the update on my housing process was and I appreciate that so much. He's very patient and made the whole process as smooth as possible. If you want to have stress-free housing process in NY, u need Leo as your broker..for real.

Recently worked with Leo, and had a very pleasant experience. He was clear, communicative, and helpful whenever we had questions. Made us feel comfortable - would recommend him as a broker!

Leo is 5 stars! Loved working with him. Great personality and drive, with a trustworthy, people first approach, was much appreciated. He got us the apartment we wanted, quickly. He really cares and wants his clients to be happy with their choice. Professional, available, and patient. Highly recommend.

Leo worked us in finding an apartment for our son who is studying at NYU. Leo was top of things from the get go, very straight forward, up front and replied back within minutes & followed up diligently on any new leads. I would highly recommend Leo as a broker. He made the whole experience quite seamless & got us an apartment in a fairly short time at a decent price.

These guys are the best.

Awesome real estate agent. He helped us find a great apartment and shepherded us through the whole process. He was patient (our daughter was pretty selective), but he was always upbeat and undeterred. His fees are very reasonable and he is extremely knowledgeable about the city. I would recommend Leo to anyone looking for a place in New York City! He is simply the best!!

Leo was super helpful and very on top of the whole process in apartment application. He made sure everything was done quickly and made the process seamless. He was very patient and explained everything, he was also great at being available to answer any questions. Really appreciate all of his help!

Leo will hunt to the ends of the earth to find you exactly what you're looking for and will adjust to your preferences.

Leo is an awesome realtor and definitely someone who can sense what a client wants, zero in on locations and areas, shows you around and does great research. I was a bit all over the place with moving and the search, but Leo's patience and relaxed nature was extremely helpful to getting me out and about to see places. Would recommend working with him and will do it again on my next move.

Leo was a godsend - extremely knowledgeable about the market, quickly able to get a sense for the price, amenities, and location I was interested in. As someone moving to NYC from outside the city, his insider knowledge and advice was essential for avoiding risky situations and homing in on high quality listings. In just three days, Leo helped me secure the apartment I wanted. He provided clear instructions for the different documents that were needed, and provided frequent updates on the application process. He is a true professional, and I wholeheartedly endorse his services.

Leo & Mike from the MVMT team at Compass were amazing! They helped me find an apartment I love and were extremely patient through the process. I would highly recommend them to help you find your next apartment!

Leo found me an awesome apartment in Brooklyn. He was very communicative and moved quickly to get everything done. I am excited to live here for many years. If you need a place, definitely go to him.

Leo Gilbert is a real stand up guy, he is always willing to take that extra step to make sure his clients have the best experience with finding a new apartment. His knowledge and perspective of the NYC real estate market was incredibly helpful helping me find my new home. I highly recommend working with Leo to find yours!

Leo found my son a great apartment in the neighborhood where he wanted to live. He was professional and on-the-ball, giving us the attention we needed to find a place and close the deal. I would definitely use Leo's services again.

Leo Gilbert found my daughter a spacious studio in Turtle Bay (midtown east) in a record 4 days! He was there for us every step of the way and left no detail unattended to. He was very professional, courteous, warm, and kind, and I would not hesitate to work with him again.

Leo Gilbert with Compass is fantastic. He is thorough, patient, and well-informed. His authentic approach helped us move through what can be a very tedious process with nothing bit ease. If you are seeking an apartment in NYC, I highly recommend his services. He was a pleasure to work with.
