"I worked with Sumner Crosby for a very short time in the summer while looking for a studio apartment that was both conveniently located and decently priced. Of course finding both in the city is difficult, but Sumner was very patient with me and dedicated to find me the perfect fit. I could tell that he was very professional and knowledgeable. He asked all the right questions even when I didn’t think to ask them. Within a day, I found the right place for me. As soon as I decided on the apartment he went right to work on getting all the correct paperwork over to me as he knew I was on a time crunch. The lease signing went by painlessly without complications. Even when I had a couple of minor problems with my apartment after moving in, he helped to deal with the problem right away. He still checks in periodically to see how everything is going with the apartment. Sumner is great at what he does and I would definitely recommend him. If you want quick and painless results when shopping for real-estate choose Sumner Crosby" - Emma

"I had the pleasure of working with Sumner under a tight deadline and with very specific needs. After a quick conversation about what I was looking for, Sumner was quick to set up viewings at a number of buildings that fit my criteria. Over the course of a few days, Sumner worked efficiently to determine the best fit for my new home. An excellent listener and communicator, Sumner always kept me aware of next steps and my responsibilities throughout the process. In no time at all I had signed a new lease at a building that I couldn't be happier with. I highly recommend Sumner to anyone looking to avoid the stress of the new home hunt in New York City - you will be in excellent hands!." - Jeff
