Cigdem was incredibly helpful throughout my process in finding a new apartment. She was friendly and responsive when I first reached out, and from there was very attentive to all my needs and questions. She helped to coordinate with all the applicable parties and was open and honest about what was needed and set clear expectations for the application and approval process. Would highly recommend working with her next time you are either looking to sell or move into a new apartment.
Kaya exceeded all our expectations as a realtor. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication made the process of finding a tenant for our apartment seamless and stress-free. She truly listened to our needs and found the perfect match. Kaya's expertise and genuine care for her clients shine through in every interaction. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of real estate services. She's simply outstanding!
Kaya helped me find a new tennant for a lease transfer. We had a limited time window and yet through her help we managed to find someone on exactly the date we wanted. She really cares about doing a good job, shows great attention to detail and is very communicative and responsive. We often talked on the phone and via text about how to proceed and what our options were. The whole process was a smooth sail, we barely had to do anything. I'd add that this transfer was a bit bumpy (because of the person who was taking over) but that bumpiness was also excellently handled by Kaya. Overall I 100% recommend her services and would easily work with her again.

Kaya was a great help for me to find a new tenant when I broke a lease at my old building. She was very professional but at the same time also very enthusiastic and engaged to find a solution that would minimize my costs on the broken lease. She took full control of communication with the management and prospective tenants and efficiently arranged open houses while constantly keeping me in the loop of what's the status. Very nice working with her as she proven to be loyal, with high sense of responsibility and very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her!!!

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Kaya during my recent subletting process. Working with Kaya was truly a pleasure, and I cannot say enough about her exceptional skills, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction.
From our very first meeting, I was impressed by Kaya's knowledge and expertise in the rental market in New York. She took the time to understand my needs and preferences. Kaya was always available to answer my questions, provide valuable advice, and guide me through every step of the process including taking pictures and adjusting to the market as needed.
What I found most remarkable about Kaya was her unwavering dedication to my satisfaction. She never hesitated to go above and beyond to ensure that I was completely happy with my sublease, and she took care of all the details, from scheduling viewings to signing the lease. Kaya made the subletting process stress-free and enjoyable, and I am so grateful for all of her hard work and dedication.
In short, Kaya is an exceptional leasing agent, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and customer-focused representative. Thank you again for providing such a wonderful service, and please pass along my heartfelt thanks to Kaya.
Kaya helped me buying my Condo. When I first started, I had no knowledge of the process. Kaya walked me through all the steps, make sure I understood what is involved. All through from choosing the best apartment to the closing she made sure I am comfortable with my decision. It took a long time for me to get to the finish line. All through she was always diligent, patient and made sure she understood what I want.
Kaya was so helpful in finding someone for our lease transfer. She was on top of the daily work involved and was in constant communication with us. She organized all of our showings and was flexible with our times. We highly recommend her!
Kaya is the best broker I know, after struggling for a month to find an apartment and being stuck with other brokers that didn’t understand what it was I was looking for and showed me everything I didn’t want, Kaya in just one day found the perfect apartment for me and knew immediately what I wanted all the apartments I saw were amazing!! And the first one she showed me is the one I’m living in and love it so so much! , She is so kind, so respectful, professional and always looking for the best fits! Having her as my broker was the best decision ever made! She is the best broker in NYC!!
Kaya was on top of it from day 1! I was in NYC for three days to find and sign a lease on an apartment. She called me for a listing I had shown interest in and when I told her I was looking for something completely different she came through. We met three hours later and she had 4 apartments ready to show me. When those didn't work out she spent the night preparing a full day of listings for me to see all around the city -- that night we found the one I wanted and signed the next day! Kaya made it clear that my priorities were her priorities, and helped me through every step of the process. I recommend her 100%! She will find you exactly what you want even in the toughest of markets!
Kaya was extremely helpful and efficient in helping my roommate and I find an amazing 1 bedroom flex apartment. I had worked with over 15 brokers with no luck, and Kaya was able to show us an apartment before it was on the market, and we signed on the spot and moved in 2 weeks later. She helped with every step of the way, and answered all of our questions. She was always reachable, and made sure all paperwork was submitted in a timely manner to ensure we got an apartment that we loved.
Kaya was the best broker Ive had in all the years Ive lived in NY! She was really professional, very pro-active and helpful. She offered the best options taking care of the requirements I was looking for. She worked so hard to get me the best deals and to make my process less complicated. I recommend her 1000%.
I had the best experience working with Kaya. Fromstart to finish Kaya displayed nothing but kindness and concern for me. I was very stressed and limited in time to find an apartment but somehow she managed to keep me calm throughout the entire process. In the end, she was able to find the perfect apartment for me, with everything I asked for and more. I couldnât be happier and will definitely recommend her to everyone I know. Thank you so much Kaya for your great work ethic and professionalism. You are truly an amazing person.
Kaya is an amazing agent who puts her clients first. She was available early in the morning and later in the evening, always responding to emails and explaining the process step by step. She was patient when I had 100 questions and she never once made me feel dumb for asking them. She made sure my roommate and I felt empowered choosing our place, protected from shady feeling rentals (meaning if things were off she let us know) and above all confident because we knew we could trust her. She was there each step of the way and I would definitely recommend her in the future to my friends. Thank you Kaya !!
Kaya is the best! She came prepared with a list of apartments to show me and spent the day walking in the rain to view them. She was also very organized and friendly. She definitely has your best interest in mind and is there for you every step of the way.

Cigdem helped me find a great apartment within the limited time I had. I was (am) very picky so she was very patient and listened to my needs and wants. She took the time to show me many many places and helped me evaluate them according to my needs.
I cannot recommend Kaya enough. She responded to our message right away and we set up an appointment to view some apartments the next day. She showed us a ton of really great apartments and was thoughtful and listened to everything that we did and did not like out of each of the apartments we saw. When we finally found a place we liked she was incredibly helpful through the application process and lease signing. Finding an apartment can be an incredibly stressful situation, Kaya was in constant communication throughout the entire process and I will recommend her to anyone looking to move.

Cigdem has been diligent, professional, patient, informative and persistent during the renting process.
Kaya was fantastic throughout the entire process of finding the right apartment. As a picky client, Kaya was extremely patient and more than willing to roll up her sleeves to find me exactly what I was looking for in an apartment. Working on a tight deadline Kaya was able to deliver.
Kaya was very helpful in navigating the rental process. I have rented in New York before, but Kaya made the process so much easier. She explained every step and stayed with me through every step to ensure that my interests were served. She also enthusiastically explored every solution for any potential road block that could have stood in our way during the process. Kaya was truly a blessing!

Thank the lord for Kaya. My girlfriend and I just moved here from LA and had no idea what we were in for. Kaya held our hand the whole way, chased leads, made herself available, educated us and was thoughtful and kind the entire time. She is the best thing that could have happened to us. Seriously.
I chose Kaya because of the great reviews... and now I am one of them! Kaya was very responsive and I felt she got a very good sense of what I wanted early on. I had set aside a day to come from Boston to New York and she had done her homework to get a list all lined up that she gathered from the night before. Even when a couple places were already taken in that short time, she had backups that she was calling. And when we talked with the building agents, she was consistently trying to get the best deal for me. I felt like I was in good hands. At the end of the day, I did get an apartment, and even with my long "wish list" I surprisingly ended up with most of what I wanted. Thanks again, Kaya!
Kaya is one of the those rare gems left in the real estate business today, that genuinely care more about finding you a great deal/place more than her own interests. She was very professional, courteous, and extreamly helpful throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond the call in helping me find the perfect place for me. A true Realeste Agent. If you are looking for your next perfect place. She's the Agent for you.
Kaya is amazing. There was a studio apartment on the UES listed on a Friday night for an incredible deal. On Friday I contacted her and she responded right away. On Saturday I went to see the apartment, put in a deal and by Wednesday I got the apartment. I had doubt's (this being my first apartment in the city), but she encouraged and pushed me. I am very thankful she did because this is one of the greatest decisions I have ever made! Kaya is highly recommended. She will get the job done and will always be on your side.
Kaya is a fantastic agent and I am proud to recommend her. She showed me quite a few properties and all were appropriate for my search. The apartment I took was one that Kaya pushed me to see. Her dedication is immediately evident and she is a great communicator. Choosing Kaya as an agent is an easy and smart choice!

My boyfriend and I had a very limited time to look for an apartment. Kaya responded to my boyfriend's inquiry almost immediately and we were looking for apartments the next day. It did not take long at all for her to understand what we wanted in an apartment. Along the whole process I knew she would not give up on us (we have a large dog & and limited budget). She is kind, patient and compassionate and did her best to make finding a new apartment less stressful. In the end we found a lovely place, within budget and we move in this weekend! I highly recommend using Kaya to help you find a new home.
I have heard that 'Patience is a virtue' and Kaya exemplifies that to the dot. She was the only person who called me back and showed interest in finding me a place. By the first couple of places she understood what I was looking for and what my needs were. She made sure all the apartment viewing's was made as per my convenience and around my schedule which she planned out well.Genuinely a great person to talk too and she makes you feel comfortable in the whole process which can become stressful. She is responsive and will make sure things are getting done and communicate it back to you.Being my first experience hunting for an apartment in Manhattan I am glad that I got what I was looking for and she made it happen. Thanks Kaya!!!
Kaya was really wonderful in finding the perfect apartment for me. I was looking for something specific and she was not discouraged, and optimistic about finding me a place. Kaya also worked very hard in getting me the best deal. I would highly recommend working with her !
Kaya was relentless in her search to find me the right apartment based on my specifications. She quickly figured-out exactly what I desired in an apartment and she never showed a unit that deviated from my range.Kaya went above and beyond in researching, planning, and showing all apartments that fit my criteria. She was extremely flexible in setting-up times and spent a large portion of her time showing me unit after unit until the right apartment was found.I highly recommend working with Kaya in your next apartment search. You will not be disappointed.
Kaya is amazing! I relocated from SF and was lost when it came to apartment hunting in Manhattan. She was very patient and helped narrow down what I was looking for and found me the perfect place. More importantly, she's genuine and very easy to talk to. She's responsive and takes the time to get to know you and what's important to you. It was a great experience working with her!
Kaya is one of the those few in the real estate industry that really care more about finding you a good deal than their own paycheck. She was extremely nice, courteous, and helpful throughout the entire process and really went above and beyond the call in helping me find an awesome apartment at a really good price.I highly recommend working with Kaya if you have the chance. It will be a great experience!
