After dealing with several agents based in the Central Queens area the past few weeks, I have to say hands down, Ari is my favorite. Word of advice-​apply for that apt you like right away-​his apartments do not stay on the market for long at all!!! Do not hesitate! We missed out on this amazing apartment because I was being indecisive.
His apartments are fantastic and speak for themselves. He is respectful, professional and a genuine guy-​I really appreciate how he shows you places and tells you as it is… he doesn’t try to beef it up in a tacky manner that I’ve witnessed with other agents. I also love how he listens to your needs and requirements, it’s so important to make the client happy. He is very easy to communicate with and will get back to you right away. He is busy but you never feel like he doesn’t have time for you-​he makes sure he’s available to help you out!
Definitely highly recommend him!!!

We called Ari already frustrated from another broker who we applied with but wouldn’t get back to us promptly and to be honest there was a language barrier. Ari broke it down for us step by step, showed us the type of apartment we were looking for «renovated» coming from California this is all relative. Even though the process of renting in New York is not easy and requires A LOT of paperwork we got the renovated type of apartment we really wanted in a great location of Forest Hills. We could not have done this without Ari’s patience.
Thanks, Ari! You Da BEST!!!

Ari is a life saver. My fiancé and I were looking for an apartment on craiglist and Ari’s name came up a bit, so I thought I’d give him a shot. Due to our desperate situation, we ended up calling him on a Saturday night after business hours and somehow he still managed to set up an appointment for the next morning and show us about 7 different apartments in multiple locations!
Ari was enjoyable to work with he made the process of hunting down an apartment very easy. Within the next 24 hrs of meeting him — Ari calls to let me know that he’s ready for me to sign for our new apartment! The guy can work in a pinch. Highly recommended!

I was very pleased with the service I received from Ari. My situation was very complicated as I am a U.K. citizen who had arrived to the U.S. only 8 months ago and therefore did not have much credit nor did I have a guarantor in the U.S. In addition, I had just been offered a new job so I was in need of a place ASAP. Ari miraculously managed to convince the landlord to approve me for the apartment and this was all done in less than week! He did all that he could in order to ensure that I received the keys the same day I handed in the lease.
I am very grateful for all the effort Ari put in, and I would most certainly work with him again in the future.

Ari is a great guy! My wife and I met him to see an apartment and he went above and beyond to help us find the perfect spot. He took us to multiple locations even though his schedule was pretty much booked. We were so indecisive, in fact, that he let us see our favorite places again that same evening. He’ll do pretty much anything to help you out and get a good place.
We had some issues with credit as well, and before anything was submitted he consistently came back at us for things we might need to make sure we would be approved.
Definitely a guy to have on your side.
Thanks Ari!

I would give 10 stars if I could. I’ve never worked with such a hard working, dedicated broker before in my lief. Ari knows his stuff. He is knowledgeable, honest, a straight shooter and HE WON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!
there are a million brokers out there who are shady, and awful, and give brokers a bad name. Ari breaks the mold, and I will never go with any other broker again.
Thank you, Ari, for being so great to work with!

Ari Silverstein helped me find the apartment of my dreams at a price within my budget. His calm manner, expertise in the rental market, and thorough knowledge of the apartments in his listings removed all the anxiety and frustrations I had experienced from previous brokers and salespersons. He showed me apartments that satisfied my requirements, unlike other brokers who would show me 700 sq. ft. apartments when my specification was 900 sq. ft; or a broker who showed me an apartment that was listed as a one bedroom, but where the bed was in the kitchen. Obviously, the broker never previewed the apartment. You will never experience this kind of nightmare with Ari. In addition, Ari is a problem solver. Should some snag develop in your application, Ari will help you resolve it. In short, Ari earns his commission.
