I moved from out of state and rented a great apartment with Ivan. He was extremely professional and helpful through out the process. He sent very well summarized emails detailing each process I would go through. This took all the thinking out for me, which was especially appreciated as I had many other things to do. I would highly recommend working with Ivan.
Ivan has been the most knowledgeable and professional person I met during my search, clearly miles ahead of other real estate agents. He was always available and so accommodating. It was a great experience, I will definitely recommend him! 5 Stars!
Ivan was wonderful. He walked us through the entire process smoothly and was super-responsive the whole time, answering every single question honestly and helping us address any concerns we had about our moving situation. I would recommend him to any one of my friends moving to New York.
Had a fantastic experience with Ivan! For our recent NYC apartment search, my partner and I looked at 6 apartments in Queens and Brooklyn in a day and had 6 different brokers. Ivan was far and away the most professional, qualified, and responsive of these, and the apartment he showed us was leagues ahead of the rest (and we signed the lease yesterday)!
I highly recommend Ivan for all your Queens/Manhattan apartment needs.
It has been my great pleasure to work with Ivan to find a perfect apartment. The whole process was a breeze from beginning to the end. Very professional and was always reliable to answer any questions or concerns promptly and honestly. He was always very flexible and accommodating with the schedule. He knew a great deal about the neighborhood as well and offered insights during the viewing.
I’ve worked with other brokers in the past who unresponsive, didn’t follow through with answers to my questions and/or who tried to push me into signing a lease even though I wasn’t happy with the places they’ve shown at all. I feel very lucky that I’ve found a listing from Ivan and it amazes me how I was able to find an apartment less than a week.
I will definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a place to move.
Ivan was really great to work with! He was professional, detail- oriented and always available for questions.
In my search for an apartment, Ivan was miles ahead of other real estate agents. He was responsive, honest, and very professional. Ivan paid close attention to detail and went the extra mile to make sure we're happy with our new apartment. He also spared no expense getting us from point A to point B in our apartment search, which we greatly appreciate.
I will recommend him to anyone who's looking for a new apartment.
It's was great working with Mr. Mijalkovic. Such a wonderful renting experience. Couldn't have asked for a better or more helpful/friendly agent. I Would recommend him to anyone renting in the area!
Ivan was an amazing broker.He made our much dreaded "NYC apartment search" a breeze and we are most grateful to him for it. He is greatly knowledgeable, very personable, trustworthy and so willing to help.
Before we contacted Ivan we had seen at least 8 apartments in Astoria and each of them were beyond disappointing .This is when Ivan swooped in. We told him what we were looking for and Ivan showed us three very perfect apartments within our budget that met all our criteria. The paperwork process was also made very easy by him (all done electronically within a day). He even put in a good word for us to the landlord, helping us get approved for the apartment we loved.
Thanks Ivan, for helping us find the perfect apartment!
Ivan was great! He made my first renting process simple and quick. Ivan listened to exactly what we wanted, and showed us the perfect options. It was such a pleasure working with him!
Ivan was everything I hoped for and more in a broker. I tried to look for no-fee apartments, as most of my experiences with brokers have been awful. They usually show me one apartment that doesn't fit my needs or asks at all - this isn't worth a broker fee at all. Ivan was quite the opposite. He listened to what I had to say, showed me several apartments, and kept working with me for a while until I found what was perfect for me. He is friendly, hard working, and knows his stuff. I gladly paid the broker fee for his services, and would do so again. I am definitely recommending him to any friends and family who may use him in the future.
This is my first time renting property and Ivan made it easy and fast! He was also fast at any response like email and phone.
I highly recommend him!
Ivan was great to work with to find our new apartment. He always responded timely to all of our questions. He was a great liaison to building owners/managers, and was very professional throughout. He really goes above and beyond looking into and working within your needs and specifications. I would highly recommend working with him and would personally look to work with him again in the future.
Ivan recently helped me secure an apartment in Astoria. The whole experience was very pleasant from start to finish. He is very knowledgeable about the neighborhood and showed my boyfriend and I a few apartments until we found the one that was right for us. He was always available on phone or email to answer any questions we had. He was extremely patient and went above and beyond to make sure we got our dream home. I would definitely recommend working with Ivan. When the time comes for my boyfriend and I to move again, he will be the first person we call!
Ivan made finding our first apartment together so easy. We gave him a few things we were looking for in the new place and he set up 5 similar showings in our budget which gave us options when deciding. I would highly recommend using Ivan as a broker in Astoria and the surrounding areas and we will most definitely go through him for future apartments.
Tim and Samantha,

Ivan is awesome! He listened to our needs and showed us great apartments. He's quick to respond to any questions and his fee is reasonable.
We would definitely recommend and will hopefully work with Ivan again!
Ivan is professional and kind. He was a pleasure to work with. He was able to make the process go smoothly and communicated our position well with management. Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend working with him.
Ivan was a pleasure to work with. He was incredibly thorough, professional, and made us feel at ease throughout the moving process. He did not pressure us to make a decision, and had vast knowledge of buildings within the Astoria area.
Working with Ivan was truly a great and professional experience. Throughout the entire process he was very thorough, professional and always had our best interests/preferences in mind. Given that the Astoria real estate market (renting or buying) is less efficient than Manhattan (more px variance/inconsistency + less-than-reliable landlords etc) working with Ivan really made a difference. While getting our apartment for 10% below listing was a huge +, the comfort/knowledge that we were in good hands was equally important. I would highly recommend Ivan for anyone interested in living/moving to Astoria and would also advise those to do their homework on other brokers as my fiancé and I unfortunately had a bad experience with another broker and made sure to not repeat our mistakes the second time around (hence why we went with Ivan!)
Having rented numerous apartments throughout NYC, my boyfriend and I have dealt with numerous brokers, and none have come close to Ivan. Ivan couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating, making the process of finding a new place far from stressful, but rather enjoyable and exciting. He replied to all of our emails extremely quickly and was always happy to answer any questions we had. We met Ivan to view one apartment (the morning after we had contacted him the night before), and by the end of the day he had voluntarily shown us 10 apartments that we loved, as well as suggesting we take a look at another building - which he brought us to later that night. We did not feel pressured at any moment. He gave us honest and upfront information about each unit and the buildings we saw. We got the feeling that he had our best interest in mind and was not trying to just sell us anything that he could. We found the apartment of our my dreams through Ivan. He strategically gave us advice on how we could make sure that we got the apartment that we fell in love with. He was fantastic from the showing, to the paper work, to signing of the lease. We got the apartment, and move in December 1st! The process was quick and enjoyable and we couldn't be more excited! Ivan is a class act that we will suggest our friends and family use in the future. We couldn't be any happier, five out of five stars. If you are looking for a great overall experience, and a great apartment, Ivan is your guy!
Thanks again Ivan!!!
Ivan was great!!! He handled himself in a very professional manner and he responded to every and all requests we had. He couldn't have been more helpful throughout the process and was able to get us the apartment we wanted for a great price. The entire process was extremely smooth. I would highly recommend him and his services.
I am so pleased with having to work with Ivan on my apartment hunt. Made the process that much nicer and easier! Would recommend to everyone who is currently looking to rent an apartment.
Finding the right apartment in New York City is a difficult process. Most times it’s tedious and exhausting. The opposite is true with Ivan. He is adept at understanding exactly what you are looking for in a living space, and is prepared to make application processes as painless as possible. It was truly a pleasure to work with Ivan. He is personable, relatable, and knowledgeable. He never pressures you into taking an apartment—instead he listens and is sensitive to your needs. Furthermore, once the application process begins, Ivan is ever-present, eager to help streamline your application in order to get you into your apartment as quickly as possible. And even after I signed my lease, he was still available to answer my questions and was kind enough to show me the apartment one more time before my move in date. Ivan is a fantastic broker.
Ivan was a great and very professional broker to work with. He truly puts his clients first while understanding their needs and requirements. He was very knowledgeable about the market and city area. He helped me obtain the best possible deal and worked relentlessly to get it done. I would hire him again to assist me with any future real estate ventures. He proved to be trustworthy and to put the needs and best interests of the client first.
