Devin is AMAZING. I worked with multiple realtors but Devin was my favorite. I had the most natural and pleasant experience with him and he made me feel like my time and needs were very important. He made the home hunting process so easy and even fun. Best experience I've ever had with a realtor and am currently recommending him to all of my friends.Thank you Devin!
Will recommend Devin to anyone who's looking for an apartment. Very responsive and informative, Devin also went extra miles to drive me around the neighborhood that I'm not familiar with, which opened my eyes to a lot of perks that I wouldn't be able to find myself. After hearing my needs, he also provided many good options that I didn't find on website. The only reason I didn't rent from Devin is that I eventually decided to join an apartment instead of living by myself. Will definitely search for his help next time I need a place to live!
Devin is the best! He listened closely to what we wanted. Once I described the type of place I was looking for, he didnât waste time taking us to look at listings that didnât fit this description (e.g., over budget, outside of ideal area). He was straightforward about the pros/cons of each place. He wasnât pushy and didnât try to convince us of anything. He isnât pushy, which is a huge plus with a broker. He also didnât do that thing where brokers take you to AWFUL places up front to make other places look nicer. He only showed us places that met his own and our standards.

While this limited my search, he didnât do what many other brokers do- âaccidentallyâ show you listings that you later find out have a fee.Finally, Devin knows BK very well and was able to discuss each neighborhood knowledgeably.Devin is honest, knowledgeable, and hilarious. Having worked with quite a few NY brokers, he is the best!
5 STARS!!! Devin was extremely insightful, diligent, and honest when helping to find my apartment. He bent over backwards to find the right place for me. Definitely working with him when I look for my next place. Thanks Devin!
Devin was truly a God send! He really listened to what we wanted and needed, and ended up finding us an apartment we fell in love with! I have already highly recommended him to several friends and would go to him again if I needed another place.
I will rent from him very soon, in the near future.

Devin was great to work with. I called him about one listing that my boyfriend and I saw on Trulia, he was immediately very honest and forthcoming about that property which he was skeptical about for our needs. He suggested some others that might fit our needs better and were within our price range. He was able to show use those listings that same day and we ended up applying and getting the lease for the third apt he showed us. The whole process was easy. Devin is very friendly, I trusted his advice and found him to be a straight forward and accurate source of information on the neighborhood. I would absolutely use him again next time we are looking for an apt., but right now we are very happy with the one he helped us find!
Never responded to my inquiry.
Devin is truly a gem! He was patient, honest, and generous with us in our difficult search for a three bedroom apartment in Crown Heights. He was quick to accommodate us and to answer directly any questions we had, plus he had a great sense of humor and was fun to work with. I can't imagine a better agent.

A few years back I rented an apartment from Devin. We remembered we liked him so much that we contacted him again just recently for a move. I'm happy to say he is just as responsive and knowledgeable as he was back then. While we didn't end up renting through him this time around, I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking. He is extraordinarily friendly, accommodating, and truthful. A+ !!!
Devin was recommended to us by a friend, and he responded to my initial inquiry right away. He was always available to answer questions, and was extremely friendly. We later found out that Devin was recovering from an achilles injury. On top of that, his child was born 4 days before we came to view apartments. He clearly had a lot on his plate, but he still provided us with a great experience when we came to look at apartments.
While I didn't end up renting an apartment from Devin, he was BY FAR the best agent I worked with. He was extremely knowledgeable of the neighborhoods, not pushy, and our interactions felt honest and authentic. He treated me like an actual person, instead of a number. He respected my time. While I didn't rent from him last time, I plan to reach out to him now, in search of a new apartment.
Devin was highly responsive, listened to what we wanted, and provided input on what he felt would be possible based on our budget and other constraints. He was totally cool with us only looking at no-fee apartments and, when we were close to closing on another place but really wanted to check out one he had sent us, he went above and beyond and had Erica, his fiancée, show us the apartment because he knew time was of the essence and he was unavailable. We decided to take that apartment and Devin was always reachable, answered all our questions, and helped up through the application process. Anyone looking for an apartment should definitely reach out to Devin because he is extremely helpful and has a great sense of humour to boot! Shout out to Erica because she is also terrific!
If there was an option for 10 stars, we would give that to Devin! My roommates and I had just moved to New York and were stressing out looking for an apartment that was affordable and fit our list on the internet. The description for Devin said his response rate was "blazing" and we found this funny, but it really is blazing. Within 2 minutes of inquiring, he was calling us. Devin was extremely helpful in the process and showed us apartments he thought would be good picks and got it right on the second try. He stayed with us until midnight as we went back and forth deciding on details before we went with the place. He answered all of our questions at all hours of the day and made the process clear and easy. We would highly recommend Devin (we already have to our other friends). We just moved into our new place and we are very happy with it. Thanks, Devin!
Devin was great! He showed us places to eat around the neighborhood as well as showed us great places. Also after we paid the deposit it was no hassle getting Devin to come with us to the apartment to get measurements for future furniture.
Devin was really responsive and met us on a Sunday to view several apartments. He was really knowledgable of the BK area and was really helpful and accommodating. He clearly knew a lot about all the apartments we viewed and was able to share a lot of info about each neighborhood. Highly recommend!
Devin was responsive, helpful, kind, and found us a great apartment. He made our search seamless, and we're super grateful! Would highly recommend.
Devin is truly the best broker I worked with during my apartment search. After meeting about 15 different brokers, Devin was the only one who understood exactly what I was looking for, he honored my budget, and was completely organized, timely, and professional from start to finish! Working with him and his team was very easy and refreshing! I look forward to keeping in touch with Devin because he represents only quality properties, clearly understands his clients needs and he's truly a down to earth guy!
Devin was a great real-estate agent, he responded very promptly to my interest in an apartment, set up a viewing of a few places in my price range meeting my expectations, and I signed on the apartment I liked most. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else looking for an apartment in Brooklyn. (and he is no fee, so that's good too).
Devin was absolutely awesome! He was extraordinarily helpful, honest, and responsive without being pushy. Although we didn't end up specifically renting from him, he still offered advice and support if I had any questions. He truly went the extra mile when he didn't have to. I highly recommend him to anyone; if we find ourselves moving again in the future, he will be one of the first people I reach out to.
Devin is hands down the best agent that I've worked with in New York. He took the time to really understand what was important to us in an apartment and always remained flexible amidst changing priorities. He tirelessly showed us nearly 20 apartments, refining the options as he learned more about us, until we found the perfect place. His knowledge of Brooklyn is invaluable, and his positive energy makes apartment hunting actually enjoyable. I'd recommend Devin a hundred times over.
Devin was an excellent guide to finding our apartment. I called him up, he asked my budget, where I wanted to live, and where I was currently living. He showed me and my partner three places the same day I spoke to him on the phone, and the third we signed on right away. Devin is extremely friendly, easy to get in touch with, and always happy to meet up. He made the process of finding an apartment in NYC completely hassle-free and a totally pleasant experience. I recommended him to friends and couldn't recommend him enough, period.
Although I did not rent from Devin, he was extremely responsive and accommodating.

Devin was by far the best broker we have worked with. He wasnât pushy, respected our price limit, and genuinely cared about where we ended up. We really appreciated his honesty and flexibility. If youâre looking for an apartment (especially a no-fee spot), heâs definitely the broker to see!
Devin is awesome. Not only is he a professional, but he has such an amazing personality. He makes what can be a frustrating time finding an apartment turn into a fun, easy process. Devin will work with you, no matter your circumstances and will help you find the right place for you. Best agent ever!
Devin literally responded to my first inquiry about an apartment within a matter of minutes. He asked me what kind of amenities and locations I was looking for and then sent me a long list of apartments that all were within my budget. Literally the next day he met up with me and we looked at at 4-5 different apartments. He was very personable, professional, honest and receptive to what I wanted. Being a native New Yorker he knew a lot about the areas where my girlfriend and I were looking. The very last apartment he showed us we ended up putting a deposit on that very night. He had all the paper work ready to go.
Devin is amazing! I first contacted him about a particular apartment which turned out to not be what I was looking for. But unlike all of the other brokers I dealt with, he actually took the time to find out what specifically I was looking for and then proceeded to show me apartments all day until we found the perfect one! It's an amazing space and I am so excited to move in. Thanks for everything, Devin! :)
Weeks spent sending inquiries to Craigslist ads and reaching out to other agents with no replies or one sentence responses made for a stressful start to my apartment search. That all changed when I responded to a listing put up by Devin. While that particular one was no longer available, he simply asked for my requirements, and came back right away with five other apartments matching that criteria. Sure enough, one night of touring places was all I needed to find the place I wanted. Throughout the searching and application process he was available seemingly 24/7 via call/text/email, and was very accommodating when it came to setting up tours and signings (I was moving from out of state so this was particularly convenient). All in all the man's honest, helpful and very easy to communicate with. Could not recommend any higher.
Over the years I've rented 8 apartments in both Boston and New York and Devin was by far the easiest and most helpful realtor I've dealt with. He showed us exactly what we were looking for and went out of his way to make sure we were able to get the apartment we wanted. If I need an apartment again I would not hesitate to contact Devin.
Devin made an extremely difficult and stressful search super easy and even enjoyable! Devin was personable, knowledgeable and honest. We were incredibly impressed by the places he showed us -- spacious, well-kept/renovated, close to trains, and within budget. When does that ever happen?! He's also a super funny guy and willing to work with you to get you the right place. I loved his honesty and the fact that he wasn't pushy. If we didn't like a place (which happened only like once), he had another lined up for us. Appreciated how he took his time with us. First place rented from him and I've already recommended him to friends!
Devin was extremely knowledgeable of the apartments and management companies in Crown Heights. When we scheduled a viewing for an apartment, he lined up about 5 more for us to see. The apartments had lots of character and lots of variety. He was honest about what was available and had the answers to all of our questions. Devin is also extremely personable and has a great sense of humor - he made what is usually a stressful, exhausting task lots of fun!! My roommates and I had a blast checking out apartments with him. When the next apartment hunt comes around, we will be sure to contact Devin first!!
Devin is extremely knowledgeable and just a blast to be with. He showed me and my prospective roommates many apartments, each of which was completely different and charming in its own way. He listened intently to our feedback, gave us a lot of valuable info about the neighborhood, and his "rule of 3" has become a major mantra for me in all of my apartment-hunting ventures (ask him about it!) I felt immediately comfortable with Devin, and man did he make me laugh! It's so refreshing to spend time with an agent who makes a usually-stressful process so fun and seamless. Devin, the girls and I can't thank you enough!!!
This is the second time I used Devin and he did not disappoint! He is amazing and everything you never thought a broker in NY could be - he is friendly, knowledgeable (and if he doesn't know something he will find out for you), helpful, funny and actually listens to what you want. He always gives 110% and you can feel relieved knowing he is helping to guide you through the arduous process of finding your next apartment.
Devin is awesome. He's smart, knowledgeable, helpful, and damn friendly. Helped us find the perfect apartment in the perfect spot!
Devin was very friendly and respectful of what we wanted in an apartment. It was a pleasure working with him. He found us the perfect place within one day of looking! If you are looking-and would prefer NO FEE, Devin is your guy!
Devin was incredibly responsive to text messages and phone calls from the moment I saw one of his listings. He was genuinely interested in what my roommates and I were looking for which made us trust that he was giving us reliable information. The whole process was seamless and we really couldn't have asked for a better broker.
Devon was an excellent source of information, along with a great deal of help. I moved in from out of state just 24 hours before I met Devon and was really happy to find someone so quickly that I trusted. Devon was never pushy and I always felt that he had my best interest at heart. Since I am new to the area I did have many, many questions and Devon was always quick to pick up the phone and help me all the way through the process. I can't say enough good things about him.

Devin is a fantastic broker. He was a great help in our search and ended up finding us our perfect, spacious, renovated apartment in our price range and desired location at NO FEE. Incredible. He was also responsive to all of our requests and replied almost immediately to any questions we asked. I'd highly recommend him to anyone.
Devin met us in June and showed us a Crown Heights unit that was in a decent neighborhood but too small for our liking for the price. He told us he would check in after a few weeks to see how our search was going and to our shock he actually DID. Not only did he reach out three weeks later when we were at our wits end trying to find something we loved, but he remembered we wanted a no fee unit and actually managed to find us one in our price range and desired size and neighborhood the same night he called to check in on us and we signed right then and there, no looking back. Would definitely recommend Devin to others. We're so lucky we found him!

Devin was very helpful and took care of us without making us feel like we were being roped into something we didn't want. Genuine guy who helped us find the place we want (and will actually listen to your budget)!
Devin was great, I'm looking for something that wasn't really in his field of expertise so after asking all of my needs he didn't hesitate to get me to the right person which I've noticed is rare. Usually I just get turned down. So thank you Devin!
Devin is a great listener and very knowledgable of the properties and the neighborhoods. We felt comfortable with him and we would highly recommend his service.
Absolutely seamless experience, Devin responded to my email within half an hour. Arranged to see the apartment next day and had all my paperwork processed within 3 days of my contacting him. This was by far the easiest and most seamless apartment renting experience I've ever had
Love this guy, said he was a badass, he truly is!! He has great listings and is super friendly!! I would recommend him even to my enemies !! also takes the elderly into consideration!! Best no fee in BK!!!
Devin was fantastic. Within two days, he found us our perfect apartment. He was attentive and able to find us many choices of apartments that fit our needs. He was quick to respond to calls or text messages and was even calm and collected when we were nervous or confused throughout the process. He's a great agent for students or first-time apartment renters (or anyone really). He is honest and reliable. He even personally called us to congratulate us when our application was approved! Would definitely use him again or refer friends.
Devin was extremely helpful. He obviously knew the neighborhood very well and made newcomers feel like the area was already home. He was quick to respond to all calls and messages and was very hands on in making sure we got everything in order. I would be happy to have Devin as my broker again next time I move in New York.
I have never worked with a more helpful and conscientious agent. He understands renters motives well and worked to accommodate us wherever he could. He's very knowledgable about the neighborhoods as well!
Devin was the most helpful, easy to work with, and all around friendly and courteous agent I've ever worked with. Right off the bat he called to discuss the apartment in question over the phone, just to make sure I understood all the details. He was very open with us while showing the apartment, and never made us feel like he was trying to push it on us. He was very quick to reply to all questions, and always very polite while doing so. Really great experience, I would absolutely go through Devin for any future apartments!
Devin was great to work with! He went out of his way to help and accommodate our needs. He's quick at responding via phone and text, made the process super easy for us, as opposed to the crazy hectic lose-your-sanity that is NY real estate. Thanks again!
Devin was great to work with!! He was very accommodating to my schedule and multitude of questions. Devin knew a lot about the area which was very helpful (I'm a first time Brooklyner). He was always quick to respond and always eager to answer question. I definitely recommend him!
Devin was wonderful to work with. We had to find a place in a rush and he was very amenable to all of our requests. He is very friendly and reliable and was easy to communicate with as well as prompt and very responsive. I highly recommend working with him.
Devin is a great agent to work with - he is flexible, responsible, considerate and helpful. I will continue to use him in my future apartment searches and refer friends to him as well.
