"Working with Kishia has been absolutely fantastic. I could not have wished for anything else. She is extremely patient, a clear communicator, perseverant, and on top off that very pleasant and fun to be around. A stressful situation like having to look for your next home was made way better than expected due to Kishia's leadership and guidance. I would work with her again in a heartbeat and have recommended her to all my friends" - Emma V

"Kisha has been my go-to for real estate brokering for the past 12 years. She helped me get my first and second apartment, as well as to sell my first coop and then buy my first condo. Kisha is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and well-connected. She is also part therapist, as she helped me especially deal with the pragmatic anxieties of trying to sell an HDFC coop while hoping to close a purchase of the condo. All of her referrals to support these processes have been stellar (*especially* the real estate attorney), and she never made me feel stupid with the many many questions I asked her. If you want a real estate broker who will be 100% in your corner, then Kisha is that broker. I can’t recommend her highly enough." - Katherine P

"My wife, my daughter and I met Kishia in the summer of 2015. She helped us with the rental of our apartment. Throughout the past 15 years, we have worked with various brokers (both sales and rental), but we can say that Kishia is one of the most trustworthy agents out there. She is hard-working, friendly and pleasant to work with. She understands our needs. She is also punctual, reliable and very honest. Kishia would never ever pressure you into something. Many brokers out there would do that just so they can make their commission. We feel that she has what it takes to help her clients achieve their goals whether it is sale or rental. Kishia, we truly enjoyed knowing you and working with you. Thank you sincerely." - Frank H

"I would recommend Kishia hands down to anyone buying in NYC. She recently helped me with a co-op purchase in the city and her handling of the complicated process was smooth as glass. First, she showed a lot patience for me as I indecisively looked at many apartments, always helpfully pointing out things I should consider but never pushing me to pursue something my heart wasn't into. She directed me to some excellent referrals for legal support and mortgage, and when we found "the one" she quickly built a great relationship with seller's agent. Her knowledge of the process and ability to connect with all those involved in the transaction helped make sure our offer was accepted and that we got to closing without any hiccups. And she never seemed to tire of my constant questions. My only regret now that the process is over is that we don't have a good reason to go looking at apartments together anymore!" - Doug M

"What's there to say about Kishia? She was INCREDIBLE! She was easy to talk to, not pushy, but on the flip side, she was hustler and worked to get what I needed. The first time we went out to look for a place, it was getting to know me and figure out what I was looking for. The 2nd time we went out, Kishia found places I was totally into. Then she found my dream apartment! We live in a city where 3 bedrooms are almost impossible to find. Not without the living area being a shoe box or the bedrooms being a walk-in closet. This city doesn't understand that 3 bedrooms mean more people in an apartment need a considerable living space. As a single dad of 3, Kishia found me EVERYTHING I was looking for; 3 spacious bedrooms, an elevator, HUGE living area, all within my price range. Bonus? She found me a place in DUMBO where I'm one block away from Brooklyn Park, one block from The Carousel, and two minute walk to Grimaldi's! Couldn't think of a perfect fit. I'm officially obsessed with DUMBO and Kishia! Done and Done!" - Jose R

"This was my first real estate purchase--a one bed in brooklyn--and I'm so happy that I chose to work with Kishia. Her calm, thoughtful, gracious presence on almost all of my apt visits was a huge help to me. She asked all the questions that I, as a first time buyer, would never even have thought of. We had a thorough debrief after each one. She could sense when I was talking myself into something that I wasn't overwhelmingly happy with, and would alway caution me that I will "know it when I see it," that I would get a certain feeling. I began to think that in my relatively tight budget, I would never find anything even close to rivaling my current rental in terms of beauty and light. But she was right. After looking at about 30 apts in a short period of time (during the peak of covid) we saw a co-op sponsor unit that not only ticked all my boxes for the apt itself, it was also in the exact location that I had hoped for. We went into contract very quickly and though the process was arduous with my getting the loan due to my being a freelancer and the amount of sponsor units in the co-op, she never wavered in her confidence that I would prevail. Which I did this week! The process with the sponsor was also challenging and she always held my ground with them. Extremely responsive to all my texts and calls throughout our 4-5 month process, kind and wise, you will be incredibly grateful if you choose to go with Kishia. Bonus points: I'm an avid cyclist and with covid raging, I didn't want to take the subway nor did I want her to. At my prompting, she got her brother's road bike and together we cycled to all our appointments! Making it super fun--I always looked forward to my apt search with Kishia. So highly recommend her!" - Karen Z
