Since my situation was complicated, it was hard for me to find a new place. I checked at craigslist everyday and some real estate websites also but most of the information there was old. Some brokers lied to me that the apartment which I was interested in was still available and lured me to visit their office. Then, they wasted my time showing me apartments which I was not interested in. However, Spencer''s company''s website is always updated regularly, if i asked him about the listings information, I always got a quick reply. Then, I wanted to apply to one of them but it took time to get an answer for an international student like myself. I told him that I could not wait for so long since I only had one week left. Right after that, while waiting for the reply, he found a back-up option for me which had almost the same conditions and was even better, in addition he also got an answer that I could apply if I like it even before seeing the place. Then, I finally got a wonderful place since he did the work for my applications and stuff right after I saw it. He even appeared at the meeting with the owner to support me since he was worried about my English skills. Therefore, I think Spencer is the best broker in NYC, I will recommend him to all my friends if they need an apartment! Rie H. Meryl and I want to thank you for putting us in touch with Spencer today. He found us a perfect apartment on super short notice and we really appreciate it. We look forward to recommending both you and Spencer as the best brokers in NYC. Thanks again

Spencer was not only attentive but also worked quickly which I loved. He showed me an apartment the same day of my inquiry and answered all my questions right away through either email or phone. Working with brokers before I find them to sometimes be flighty and not on the ball. Spencer Sakai is the opposite of this stereotype. He replied to all my questions within minutes and was kind and patient with all my requests. The entire process took less than two days and was completely painless. I find him to be a fantastic broker and I wish him the best

Spencer Sakai has changed my opinion of nyc apartment brokers. After dealing with 2 brokers who did everything from advertise one place and show you another to raising the rent before a lease signing I was about to give up my search and renew my current place. Then I met Spencer. He responded to my initial inquiry within minutes and that level of service did not stop until I had landed exactly the apartment I was looking for and at a price even lower than what I was willing to pay for it.
Spencer constantly kept me updated on different apartments as they came available and it wasn't long before I found the apartment that I've always wanted. Spencer was so attentive I felt I was getting the attention someone would expect to receive who was purchasing a multi-million dollar apartment, not a rental.
I whole-heartily endorse Spencer Sakai and I look forward to recommending him to my network whenever someone is looking for a great new home.

It was a pleasure working with Andrew. He was cordial, on time and informed. Our situation was a little unusual in that the apartment we wanted to rent was undergoing renovation, We had lots of concerns about whether it would be done on time and done right for our move. Andrew gave us straight answers to our questions. His approach is one other brokers in New York City should emulate. We never would have rented the apartment if we hadn’t felt we could trust him.
