Ryan Chotto was the most helpful broker I have ever worked with. He was so helpful through every step of the process- helped communicate with management about any discrepancies, delivered checks for us, drew up virtual renderings of rooms for us... The list goes on and on. He did everything to make us feel truly cared for and comfortable with our decision. I truly cannot say enough good about Ryan, and would recommend him to everyone!

Ryan was fast to respond to our questions and finding out answers for us. He is very organized and works hard to find the right place for you!

Ryan went above and beyond, even after I settled into my new apartment. Great at communication. I strongly recommend him! Ryan was very empathetic and listened to all my concerns and requirements carefully. He didn't give me generic answers like, "this is all you're gonna get in the budget" but instead, insisted on trying to find something I will be happy with. On finally finding a suitable building, he came with me a few times to see other available apartments in the same building. He also helped with carrying the deposit check to the management office, since it was too far for me. He was also great at communicating with the management about issues, and kept on checking in with me even after I moved in. He gave me recommendations for movers and renters insurance, etc. He communicated every thing very clearly and timely throughout the entire process! Navigating renting can be very difficult and stressful in NYC, so I really appreciated Ryan's help through it.

If you’re looking to rent your next apartment, I guarantee you that you will be in the best hands possible with Ryan. Renting an apartment in NYC can be an overwhelming process given all the options, but you can trust Ryan with full confidence that he will find you exactly the kind of apartment you are looking for at the right price point. In the short span of knowing him, he exceeded my expectations - he is experienced and knowledgeable of the market, extremely patient, a great negotiator, and has great relationships with many top-rated apartment buildings / management companies. Ryan made the process enjoyable and seamless, and gets to work quickly for you. The process only took three weeks start-to-finish. During that time, he worked diligently and efficiently (even through the holidays and weekends) to finding the perfect apartment that met all of the criteria was looking for. Not to mention, due to his great relationships, he negotiated an amazing deal with management on the exact unit I wanted which made an otherwise very expensive apartment totally affordable and in line with my budget! I would not have been able to achieve this deal without him, and I couldn’t be happier. In the short span of knowing him, I can confidently say that Ryan genuinely will put your interests before his. I was personally in NJ throughout the search and therefore it was challenging for me to travel back and forth to NYC for viewings. Ryan was very considerate of my situation, and took initiative to send over 30 listings by email, as well as contacted all the buildings for unit videos, pictures, floorplans. If there were buildings that did not have any videos / pictures of the actual units I was interested in, he would go above and beyond and willingly visited the buildings and took videos himself. He is fully committed to you as a client, and his only goal is to ensure you find your dream apartment. Ryan is one of those diamond in the rough brokers - by far the BEST one I have worked with throughout my 5 years in NYC. You will see for yourself when you contact him for your search!

I can’t recommend Ryan highly enough. In a world where it feels difficult to trust people involved in real estate, Ryan stands out as a genuine, honest, kind, and honorable person. I am very much turned off by brokers with a “salesman” vibe and so I was truly grateful to find Ryan who is not like that AT ALL! He puts in so much time and effort into listening to exactly what you might be looking for, scouring all the listings, and providing detailed and comprehensive lists of options, catered to exactly what you want. If we have to move again I will definitely be reaching out to him first!

Ryan helped me rent an amazing apartment. He was focused on the target, helping out in any part of the process, from defining the need to close the contract. Working with him gives you the confidence that you're in the hands of a committed and professional broker.

I was very lucky to have Ryan as my agent. He always responded promptly to my questions or concerns. We contacted Ryan on Friday, and moved into my favorite unit on the next Monday. He works very hard, compare with other agent, he provided us a lot of details about the possible units, and after knowing my expectation, even after I have already submitted one application with his help, he still kept on exploring all latest available options for me until I have signed lease for the unit with 100% satisfaction. He has good relationship with many building management and guarantor companies, which was very helpful for me to go through the whole process smoothly and efficiently. And also he offered help for furniture layout and placement. He has a passion to be an agent to help out renters. If I need an agent next time, Ryan will definitely be the first one for me to contact for help.

My girlfriend and I were looking for an apartment around Downtown Brooklyn area. After I contacted several agents on Naked Apartments, Ryan was the first one who replied my message just within 1 hour.Ryan asked my requirements and quickly prepared a list of options, made appointments with the buildings, and scheduled a day with me for the touring. Ryan has a good knowledge of the latest available apartments in the area and maintains relations with many building agents. He managed to find us a brand new apartment with a relatively rare floor plan that has a separate kitchen with windows. During the application process, Ryan also helped us to prepare documents, to communicate with the leasing office, and to defend the renters when there was a glitch about the lease.Overall, Ryan is an agent that cares about the renters by being responsive, attentive, efficient, and considerate. I highly recommend him for people looking for apartments in Brooklyn and Queens areas.

Ryan did a great job and was very helpful during my search for an apartment. He went out of his way to help deliver documents and also was quick to answer questions and kept me updated throughout the process. He also was a good listener and helped offer insight on various issues related to the move.If you're looking to find an apartment in NYC, you know how overwhelming it can be- so don't hesitate to reach out to Ryan!

Ryan is definitely one of the best agents I have worked with. He made the experience of looking for an apartment so smooth and easy. He took notes of all our requirements and made sure he got us the best options. He was always on top of things from the very first time we reached out to him responding to an ad he had posted.He followed up every single time with us and even the management at the building while the leasing process was on. He was always committed and flexible to work around our schedules and sometimes also showed the apartment to my roommates and me at different times if needed. He was friendly, professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. He found us a lovely apartment and even stopped by after sometime of moving with a housewarming present which was very sweet. I am glad that I have someone reliable to reach out to if and when needed in the future. Would always recommend him.

Ryan was always punctual and great to work with throughout the entire process. Ryan helped us secure our dream apartment with a discount to the asking price!

My girlfriend and I were looking for an apartment in Sunnyside, Queens. Ryan was quick to respond to my initial inquiry. When I first talked to him on the phone he asked good questions to get a feel for what were looking for. This included not just price range and proximity to transportation, but our aesthetic sensibilities as well. When we met Ryan to look at some apartments he was friendly and made us feel relaxed. When there was a miscommunication with the super of one of the buildings we worked with he insisted on trying to find a way to show us the apartment that night - even after we told him that we didn't mind and understood that it was not his fault.Ryan found us an apartment we really like. He also stayed in touch with us after the move and checked in on us a few times to see how we were settling in. He even stopped by with a housewarming present.I highly recommend Ryan. He is professional, caring, and just a really nice guy. If/when I move again I definitely plan to use his services.

Working with Ryan to find an apartment in New York City was the best experience I've had in real estate. He is thorough, conscientious, accommodating, and works hard to find the perfect apartment. He listened to what I wanted, and helped me consider things I hadn't thought of. I have recommended that friends keep Ryan in mind when they need to move, and I will certainly do the same.

Ryan is a 'Rock Star Realtor'! From the moment he responded to our inquiry, he was relentless in his search for the perfect apartment for us, scanning availabilities daily and going out of his way to research listings in detail for our desired floor plans, space and long list of requirements for apartments within our budget. While we ultimately chose to rent in NJ for other reasons, and this was out of Ryan's licensing jurisdiction, we would not hesitate to work with him again for future searches in NY. Ryan is extremely knowledgeable, reliable and respectful, and does not pressure or try to influence you to suit his needs. He works diligently to help clients and understands and supports their best interests. Thanks Ryan, for all your hard work and follow through!

I am so lucky to say that I have had the pleasure of working closely with Ryan. This was the first time I have used a broker, and he went beyond my expectations for the services and support a broker could provide to their client. My roommate and I were moving from Manhattan to Sunnyside, looking for a two bedroom apartment, with only 10 days before our move out day. This situation lead my roommate and I to both be very nervous and stressed out, asking every little detail one could possibly imagine. Ryan responded with no hesitation, with accurate and clear answers. He assured us multiple times that everything was going to work out and he would do everything in his power to make this work. Ryan sent me texts keeping my updated with our application process every step of the way, which helped to put my nerves at ease. After moving into our apartment, Ryan would continue to answer our calls and help us with any small question we may had. The next time I move I will immediately call Ryan. Do yourself a favor and look no further for a highly recommended, professional, kind, and knowledgeable broker. Ryan will do nothing but make your moving process a breeze. :)

I contacted Ryan rather last-minute in July because I needed to find an apartment in Midtown West come August 1st. Ryan was really approachable, honest, and most importantly a solid broker who broke (ha) the process down quickly and easily for me. He also gave my roommate and I good suggestions for options for flex 2 bedrooms. I really appreciate the fact that Ryan actually took the time to find places that were actually within our budget—in my past experiences, brokers haven't been really great at doing that. Would definitely recommend Ryan to anybody in need of broker in the New York City area.

Ryan, has been absolutely the most wonderful and respectful agent that my boyfriend and I have had the pleasure of working with. Ryan made our first time apartment searching a breeze with his very amazing patience, and understanding.Aside from being EXTREMELY responsive with us about our search, he was more than willing to help us get what we wanted, and was beyond willing to work around our schedules, which was purely magic!We owe plenty to Ryan, and his wonderful personality- right when we were ready to take a break from the searching we found our apartment and are so much more than happy with it!

This was my first time utilizing a broker to look for an apartment in NYC. I was so incredibly surprised with the amount of time, energy, enthusiasm and drive that Ryan invested in my case. Not only did he actively listened to my “must-list” (and it was a long list) but we actively thought about prioritizing, adjusting accordingly and debated in detail all of our options.If you can, please hire Ryan as your broker – the energy and commitment he will demonstrate to your case is unmatched!

[Added by: Naked Apartments] It's no surprise that trying to relocate to NYC from out of state on short notice is stressful. You read/hear/see things that kind of make you wonder why/how people live here!! Then you meet an agent like Ryan and you know it is all going to be okay.I submitted an online inquiry about a unit that went to Ryan, and he got back to me super quickly, politely, and prepared. He asked me great questions to see what I wanted and informed me all about the process. I scheduled an apartment hunting trip for 3 days with my fingers crossed, and arranged to meet up with Ryan to view some options. We went to several buildings in a couple of neighborhoods because he was invested in helping me find a good fit for a big move and new job. I was so impressed (and relieved) to see that he was knowledgeable about what we saw, the differences in areas, transit, amenities, etc. but also that he obviously takes pride in what he does. A serious breath of fresh air!Ryan is extremely resourceful, thorough, and engaged in the process while also being very patient and kind. I'd absolutely recommend Ryan to newbies like me along with native New Yorkers. It is ONLY due to circumstances beyond his control that I didn't rent an apartment through Ryan-fate brought me to a unit I saw before meeting him and it came back on market. Otherwise it would have been a lock.Do yourself a favor: go with someone who cares because Ryan will do his best for you!!!

I would highly recommend Ryan as your agent. He is very committed, involved, reliable and helpful. Provided multiple options and alternatives as well as relevant info to consider. He truly made my move to NYC from Europe a whole lot easier. Personal attention and great after care too.Thanks again!

Ryan was helpful, knowldedgeable and absolutely sensational. He went above and beyond expection to make sure myself, my roommate, my family and my roommate's family all felt secure and comfortable with our process. Will definitely stay in touch with him and recommend him to other people in need of a broker. He's a great guy and I would love to work with him again in the future! :)

Ryan is responsive and patient. He listened to what my sister and I needed, price range, location and tried to narrow it down for us so that we didn't have to run around in the NY heat. Apartment hunting can be very tiring but my sister and I chose to rent one of the first few apartments we saw and all because Ryan was a good listener and was able to identify just what we needed. I would use him again.

Ryan is awesome. Apartment hunting was not fun but Ryan worked hard to minimize our stress level. He listened carefully to what my husband and I wanted in our new home and went above and beyond to find listings that would suit our needs. We also appreciated him proactively arranging for multiple viewings in the same neighborhood. This maximized our time and really helped us get to know the area. He found quite a few apartments for us that we loved. Even though we ended up renting another place in the end, we were very happy that we worked with him and would highly recommend him to everyone.

Great help and personality.

I think Ryan was the nicest agent I've ever had. I have a general distrust for agents, since I have dealt with a lot of liars and scumbags, but I never felt like Ryan was BSing me or giving me the runaround. If he's not truly as genuine as he seemed, then he is an amazing actor who is really good at his job, but either way he found me an apt that I'm really happy with so I recommend him 100%.

Ryan was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was very responsive and helpful throughout the apartment search process, and went above and beyond to ensure that my girlfriend and I found the perfect place at a reasonable price. I highly recommend Ryan's services.
