Had a great experience working with Zach Zachariadis at Modern Spaces. The best broker I’ve met during our search for an apartment. He was very responsive and straightforward. He walked us through the whole process and assured us of every question we asked. Just moved into the new apartment and couldn’t be happier. Definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an apartment in the future.

Zach Zachariadis was incredibly helpful throughout our apartment search. We were busy and always had trouble scheduling to see apartments, but he worked with us on short notice, 1 day before or even on the day. He was calm and professional, and he tried to show us many good available apartments but never pushed or rushed us to make a decision. He made the apartment search process short and very easy. Thank you very much!

Zach did a fantastic job helping me land an apartment that was both in my target location and price. He was so pleasant to work with, incredibly responsive with any questions I had, and made the process overall very painless. Everything about signing the lease was transparent and Zach made sure to help in any way possible. I highly recommend working with him.

During our apartment search in New York, my husband and I met so many agents who showed up late, answered their personal calls during showings and generally lacked professionalism. But Zach Zachariadis was the opposite. He was punctual, so polite, and upfront (huge plus) about the apartment he showed us. After the showing, Zach also made sure to answer all the many questions we thought of via email/text very promptly and clearly. We were (and are) really grateful for his professionalism and general good vibes because it made the otherwise agonizing process of apartment-hunting smooth and painless. We have since moved into the apartment he showed us ...

Angellos Grammatikos was the agent that helped me with the process to rent my apartment in NY, I did everything from DC, he showed me the apartment in a video call, then to my niece in person, he guided me on every step, everything was so smooth, he was always there for every question I had, he followed up with me to be sure whatever I needed was attended. He is an amazing agent, super kind and professional.

My husband and I had the best experience working with Zach Zachariadis in purchasing a multi-family and renting out our apartment in LIC/Astoria. For both transactions he was dedicated, diligent, informative and really just went above and beyond. What I especially love about Zach is that he’s a good, trustworthy person. When you’re doing big transactions it’s so comforting to know you have that type of person on your team. We are so happy we found him and definitely recommend him!

Let's face it, no one really likes the stress of looking for a new apartment, especially in NYC. Zach, however, turned my apartment hunt into an extremely enjoyable experience. Zach is professional, knowledgable, efficient, reliable and very communicative. He went above and beyond to make sure that I was happy with my new place, and that I had all the information I needed to feel comfortable signing the lease. He was also very patient and I appreciated the time he took to help. I couldn't recommend Zach more highly!

Zach Zachariadis recently helped my husband and I find our dream apartment. Zach managed to help us remain calm and actually enjoy the moving process, which we all know can be extremely stressful. Throughout the entire process, Zach was genuinely interested and took the time to listen and care about the details that are important to us in a home. Zach not only delivered in finding us an apartment that had every single detail we were looking for but also went above and beyond to ensure that we were getting the best possible deal. I highly recommend Zach’s services to anyone in NY. He will be sure to find you exactly what you are looking for.

I have had the pleasure of working with Debbie Huang and she differentiates herself from the stereotypical NY broker. She has been honest, transparent and full of good ideas for the qualities and price points I am seeking. I highly recommend her - especially if you have grown tired of the typical NYC broker, she will be a refreshing change of pace.
— Neil F.
I also just wanted to take a second to shout out Debbie Huang for diligently working with me every step of the way! She was one of the quickest and most reliable agents I've ever worked with during a stressful time so just wanted to share how much I've appreciated it. Not to mention, her walkthrough YT videos for each listing were so helpful and one of the reasons why I reached out. She's a great agent and I hope we can work together again in the future.

Minas is truly great at what he does. He's been both our real estate agent and property manager for years and we know we can count on him to be there the second something comes up. You're in great hands with Minas!
— E. Casillas
Minas helped me rent my apartment with Qualified & good tenants. He went above & beyond by vetting them for me & advising me when needed. I was trying to rent on my own thru social media listings & never felt good about the people looking. Minas found me a great couple in less than a week. Been doing business thgether for over 10 years & I will always trust his judgment & go back to him when I need anything.
— H. Gulloti
Minas is an ABSOLUTE ROCK STAR!!! The best real estate broker out there today!!! I know this from being a home owners for several generations!! He works hard for both the landlord and the tenant. I have readily referred him to friends and family,who also loved him.
— G. Kiamos
I’ve known Minas for a very long time and he has been my realtor for just as long. Always goes above and beyond to look for great tenants. Never has any complaints while I’m being difficult lol, over all I would recommend him over and over again. Very polite and professional. Doesn’t stop until the job is done.
— Α. Κοndylis
Minas is more than a realtor, he is a connector, always looking out for people in his network. He is fair and honest and generous and knows how to get a deal done!
There’s nobody better at real estate in NYC than Minas!
— M. Dorter
Minas is the best. He is there every step of the way and works to resolve any issue that arises. Not pushy and is sincere and cares about his clients!! I'd use no one else to represent me with buying or selling.
— N. Carlson
Minas is highly recommended. He’s handled every real estate issue with courtesy and professionalism. He’s trustworthy and completes his duties with accuracy and fairness.

Minas is very knowledgable and cordial. Always available and helpful and great at finding you the right tenants, buyers for your property, and meeting all your needs. I absolutely highly recommended Minas for all your realtor needs.

First of all Minas is the kindest human in the world!! He is so knowledge about his business and easy to work with! Look no further when looking for your forever realtor!
— M. Aponte
Minas goes above and beyond for everyone he deals with, just a genuinely good person. I've known him for over 20 years. I've done business with him for atleast 5 years. You can't go wrong with him as your agent.
— Zero Gravity Moving
I am so happy that my friend recommended MINAS! He has gone above and beyond for me very caring, sensitive, compassionate person, extremely knowledgeable and prompt on every single thing. We closed the deal and I was extremely satisfied. I'm looking forward to recommending him to any of my friends looking to buy or sell. I totally loved his personality and sense of humor. You will not be disappointed In having him on your side on your team. I wish he worked in every state because I would be referring him everywhere.

Minas helped me find an apartment in record time. He's a total pro - Would highly recommend working with him to find a dream place to live.
— M. Assante
Minas is amazing to work with - beyond his knowledge and experience, he also such a kind person!
— G. Berceau
The most honest real estate agent I ever worked with and always returns call
— L. Hines
I worked with Minas from Modern Spaces and even though we did not close any deals because of external factors, I would totally work with him again. He was very fast responding, honest with each apartment's situation, very kind, and pleasant to talk to. He was in no rush to show us the places and eager to help us find something we liked. I would recommend working with him.
— G. Coscia
My wife and I have worked with Minas from Modern Spaces twice -- Once as the broker for our apartment lease in East Elmhurst 5 years ago and last year as the broker on our first apartment purchase in Astoria. He was hyper-vigilant with staying on top of deadlines and was also present at our closing. Minas even went above and beyond communicating with all parties as well as preparing our co-op board application and paperwork. We have been in the new house since July '21 and are renovating now (planned when we purchased). We recommended Minas to friends of ours who also engaged him to broker their purchase in Astoria this year as well. We had dinner i...

Minas from Modern Spaces helped my partner and I find a great apartment in Astoria. He's knowledgeable, friendly, and was super responsive to all of our many questions. A few days after viewing the space we were at his office signing the lease! Highly recommended.
— P. Pavesi
Minas is one of the most professional real estate agents we have ever worked with. My husband and I had a pretty devastating experience with our previous apartment, and needed a place quickly. Minas was able to exceed our expectations! After a brief conversation, he not only found our dream place, but a place that allowed our dog! He was the amazing voice of reason and calm, in our crazy NYC apartment hunting storm. Minas is so knowledgable of the Queens area, he found the exact area we wanted to live in! We have recommended him to all our friends! Thanks Minas!
— D. Garcia
We had about 1 week left to find and apartment, and had very specific requirements about what we wanted. I had a quick phone conversation with Minas (he had been recommended) where I explained the situation and what exactly we wanted for our new place. Within an hour he had sent me three options, with one marked as his favorite (he thought it was the best fit for us). I met him in person later that day, and not only was he a very nice person, he was 100% spot on with his recommendation. He then negotiated a price drop with the landlord without us even pushing for it. We couldn't be happier with the overall experience and our new place. Minas is an e...

Where do I start in my review of Minas? There are not enough superlatives, and I wish there was a way to give him TEN stars! We own(ed) a 2 family home in Astoria and when our tenant moved out, we found Minas through a neighborhood friend, to help us find a new tenant. After long, patient discussions of what our needs and expectations were, Minas suggested we consider selling instead. Minas spent a great deal of time with us, giving us detailed explanations of the market, the neighborhood, trends, and felt strongly that he could sell the house at $xx and could have it sold within days, weeks at most. In 2 days (TWO!) we had our first of several offe...

Minas is great! After working with several horrible brokers, I met Minas who responded immediately, was very up front and communicative, and flexible with my work schedule from showing to signing. I typically don't write reviews but I am here and on other sites because Minas is top notch.

Mary was an outstanding real estate broker who we have worked with for a long time. She guided us through the whole process with expertise, patience, and care. She was always responsive, incredibly knowledgeable about the market, and deeply committed to making the process as smooth as possible. Thanks to her strategic advice and attention to detail, we felt confident every step of the way. She also knows everything and everyone in Long Island City, so we felt really comfortable settling into the neighborhood thanks to her. We’re so grateful for her support and couldn’t recommend her more highly!
— N Abowd
I just completed my third real estate transaction with Mary. (Our first was on the sale of our apartment in Astoria; she also helped us buy--and now rent--our apartment in Harlem.) She and her Modern Spaces team are lifesavers, especially if you're a first time buyer, seller, or renter in NYC. I would not have been able to negotiate and maneuver through the process without them. They handled everything from the paperwork to negotiations and were in constant communication with me. It was as stressless as possible (especially in NYC) and I'm grateful for their hard work. Highly recommend.
— BL Cantone
Mary was recommended to us by another subletter in the building who had also provided raving reviews about her services. I had to sublet my apartment, and Mary was an absolute pleasure to work with, especially since I had to be remote during the process. She was very responsive, keeping me regularly updated on when the open houses were happening and status of potential prospects. She was very knowledgeable about the application process, and helped me navigate through it seamlessly, although she took it on herself to do most of the coordination and follow-ups needed for the application and board approval. She also helped with putting in maintenance t...
