Oxford Property Group

I worked with Tara Marie McMahon on our latest rental in the UES and was absolutely delighted with the communication and attention to detail she showed during the process. She has a very «real» presence in that she doesn’t BS you and very quickly understood the type and feel of apartment we were looking for; I’ve worked with 4 other brokers overall in my life and she is the best of the bunch. Highly recommend!

Everyone at Oxford Property Group was very helpful and friendly. Danilo was essential to finding my roommate and I our dream apartment in New York City. He went above and beyond to make sure we were able to see the best options for our budget. I would definitely recommend Danilo to anyone looking to find an incredible apartment in NYC.

Gilad helped me find a beautiful apartment without any hassle. I have dealt with many brokers in NYC and I have already looked into a few apartments before I met Gilad. I must say this was the easiest experience by far. Gilad was very friendly, professional and pressure free. He showed up on time and worked with the management company to seal the deal for me. You can tell he is very passionate about his job and his clients. Highly recommended.

We worked with Gilad to find a new apartment and the experience was great. He was quick to respond and found us listings to view within an hour of our first call. We signed for the apartment 12 hours later. We liked working with Gilad because we didnt feel pressured, and he made sure we felt comfortable with whatever we chose. He showed up on time and prepared. Definitely recommend.

I rarely write reviews, but my experience with Narina of Oxford Property Group was so exceptional I had to share my experience. I called on a Monday to schedule showings on Wednesday and explained our needs and our desired location of the Upper West Side. Narina showed us three beautiful apartments that beat our expectations given our tight budget. She has such great connections and works so hard to get her clients the best apartments. We fell in love with the 2^nd apartment we saw and submitted an application that day. The next day she negotiated our rent down and we were approved for the apartment. This all happened in less than 24 hours! After we signed the lease she continued to work so hard for us to ensure all fees were appropriately paid and ensured we had the smoothest possible move-​in. I am so happy we worked with Narina. She was an absolute pleasure and turned our apartment search into a truly enjoyable experience. If you are looking for your dream apartment I would highly recommend Narina! She is the absolute best in the business!

Desmond from this so called business is disrespectful and says his opinions as if they’re always 100% factual. Unwilling to compromise to the point of insulting. Not to mention doesn’t know the basic practices of real estate. Stay away!

The broker Takuya Murakami is the worst broker I have even seen!!!
1. He never shows up.
2. He misses the appointment in the last minute
3. He wanted a check before our first meeting regarding the lease term.
You should at least meet your clients and talk to them before you ask for my whole year rent!!!
The worst thing is his INDIFFERENT attitude. After reading other clients’ reviews, I kind of understand. Maybe the company’s culture is just like this. I feel so sorry for the owner of Oxford Property Group and the apt owner.

DO NOT WORK WITH COMPANIES LIKE THIS. I cannot stress it enough. I emailed one of the brokers, a man named Desmund Eaddy, to view a listing I saw online. They require a phone number, though I prefer to communicate over email because I work all day and do not need countless brokers pestering me with apartment listings I didn’t ask to see (this is not my first rodeo, I know how these hustlers work). So he emailed me saying my phone number was invalid and instead of answering any of the questions I laid out in my initial email about the listing, he again asked for my phone number. He then asked me to come to his office and attached basic paperwork about renting apartments in NYC. Look, I want to see a listing in the East Village, not come to your office to discuss my needs and then sign a contract that forces me to pay you a fee on any apartment you show me– again, not my first rodeo. I’d like to know why he needs me in his office when plenty of other brokers will simply show you the apartment you asked to see knowing that if you like it, they get paid for meeting you and sticking the key in the door. The short answer is he needs me to sign a contract that forces his pay day and realistically wastes both of our time. So when I politely declined, he responds with the RUDEST email I have ever received saying «Figures. When you cant get someone on the phone its even harder to get them to rent an apartment. If you change your mind and decide you want to get aggressive about securing your apartment with a professional. Read my reviews and feel free to call me back and or include a valid phone number for yourself.»
So since he’s so hot on reviews, I thought I’d leave an honest one. If there was one good way to ensure I will NEVER work with him or anyone at his company, he found it.

David Biton was very helpful when I was looking for an apartment. I came every close to apply to one of his apartments. Although I have to let go due to the timing, but David’s enthusiasm and expertise was very much appreciated. He truly listens to clients’ requests and tries to provide them with the best options.

This review is for Gilad. I first contacted him by answering an ad to see an apartment. He then called me to learn exactly what I was looking for so he could better help me and not have me waste any time (as I was only in town for 3 days to secure an apartment). He was very responsive to all my emails and texts and set up numerous appointments for me on my first day. He told me that he started with the best units and we would go from there. Well I saw about 5 apartments and before we went onto the next set, I wound up taking the 2^nd apartment I saw. It was a good thing I didn’t feel the need to see them all because as I was filling out the application, there were 2 other people waiting to take my apartment. But I won and I owe it to Gilad. I highly recommend him!

Michael Trzcienski was extremely helpful in assisting my roommate and I to lock in our apartment. He was very patient and thorough with all of our questions, and quick to respond to any communication. I would definitely use him again when looking for my next apartment!

Michael Trzcienski has been nothing but helpful. Although I’m young and probably not the highest profile client, he made me feel like one. His attention to detail, follow-​up and overall kind demeanor really made my apartment search in NYC amazing.
I contacted him after my lease was signed for nominal things and he took time out of his day to call or email me back with a thoughtful inquiry. I look back at some of those messages and I know they were petty, and it meant a lot that he still took time to respond.
If you ever are in need of an apartment, I highly recommend Michael. I know that when my next apartment search comes around, he’ll be the only agent I reach out to.

I was fortunate to be referred to Narina Grigoryan through a friend and could not have been more pleased with the experience. Despite changing the apartment size request multiple times and working on a limited budget, Narina came prepared to our Sunday meeting with two amazing options in our ideal neighborhoods (East Village and Lower East Side) and within our price range.
Narina not only came prepared with incredible apartments to show my roommate and me but also came with a positive attitude that made for a fun afternoon during what many consider to be a stressful experience. We were able to see two great apartments, weigh the pros and cons of each, and apply to our choice all within one day, absolutely painlessly and with Narina’s advice and guidance. She even helped us to negotiate our rent down on both places, something many agents do not even offer to do.
Thanks again to Narina, couldn’t be more thrilled with the new place!

This review is for Joyce Liendo w/​Oxford Property Group. Joyce is a brilliant agent. She cultivates relationships wit her clients that are based on trust. She is an excellent negotiator and a forced to be reckoned with. I whole heartedly recommend Joyce for all of your real estate needs. She knows this industry and is a whiz with numbers. I wish Joyce continued success.

This review is for Joyce Liendo at Oxford Property Group.
Joyce helped me find my current Astoria apartment. In a city where you’re told to be wary of brokers, Joyce was a pleasure to work with and I instantly knew I was in good hands. After discussing my search criteria over the phone, we met the next day to view properties. All the apartments that she showed were places I’d consider living in and it showed she took the time to listen to my criteria.
I would recommend Joyce to anyone looking for a rental without hesitation.

Pregnant, owned and lived in a studio apartment with husband, looking for a bigger apartment to start a family. All of these things had to happen all at the same time (trust me, I didn’t plan it that way).
That’s where David Biton from Oxford Property Group came into play. David was very helpful and understanding of all of our needs. He was professional as well as personable and made us feel very comfortable. David was very dedicated to us, in selling our studio apartment (holding open houses and gathering all of the best offers) to purchasing our junior 4. David would spend late nights preparing our board package to ensure that we were the best candidates to be accepted into a notoriously strict co-​op. We would meet and practice interviews to figure out the best way to answer any hard questions.
Suffice to say, we were approved by the co-​op board and we were able to sell our studio. My husband and I are very happy to have worked with David and would recommend anyone looking for a home (or selling) to work with him.

While I can’t speak for Oxford Property Group as a whole, I can say that if they are smart enough to employ Narina Grigoryan as one of their agents, then they must be doing something right.
Narina responded quickly to my initial inquiry, then met with me a few days later to sit with me and discuss what I was looking for. She asked me where I had been, what neighborhoods were appealing to me, what was important to me in an apartment, what my apartment was like before… she really listened to what I was saying. She was able to find me an apartment (and really fight for me to get it!) the SAME DAY WE MET. As I was basking in the glory of the UWS, she let me know that she typically signs 80% of her clients the first day, which shows that she really pays attention to what you want!
The whole process was quick and painless — Narina was available at all hours to answer my questions and responded to my emails, texts, and phone calls within minutes. She is the broker to beat, in my opinion, so if you’re looking for a realtor, look no further than Narina!

I am very happy to have bumped into Cole Washington. He was very kind and professional and really listened to what I wanted. Cole helped me find my apartment within 1 day!
I was out of the city for a while but had already contacted Cole about an apartment. I did not know my exact return date so Cole checked in with me every week to see if I was ready to view apartments with him yet.
I would recommend Cole to anyone!

Negative stars rating – I just had to choose one.
No interaction with the company, only Cole Washington. I responded to an ad he posted on craigslist about a 1600 a month rent stabilized apartment that was soon to have new appliances that later ended up really being 1700, market rate, with newER appliances, and I had to move in much earlier. He couldn’t even look me in the eyes.
Professional? He said he’d been doing this for five years and I’ve got a long story about how he and the other guy doing the paperwork kept telling me there was another guy who submitted an application before me, even though I had already put down $ 500 in good faith. He told me because he had a big dog and the owner wanted someone with a smaller dog and that even though I didn’t have as much credit as big-​dog guy I was really lucky to have a shot. .. I just had to pay $ 100 more and move in early because thats what big-​dog guy was going to do and according to the paperwork guy the place was never 1600 and was always market value.
So, yes, landlords discriminate against applicants with big dogs and some real estate people are just shady. (And I can’t believe he got good Unilocal reviews.) Do not trust this guy. If you want an apartment he’s showing, go over everything yourself and make your own decision.
Worst experience ever.

If you are looking for a NO FEE apartment please LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE. I spoke to one of the brokers over the phone and he said he could help me find a no fee apartment.
When I went in to speak with him at the office, the document I was supposed to fill out had an agreement on the bottom outlining that any apartment they showed me would require me to give them a broker fee. I said I wouldn’t sign this and when he came back in he brought another man to deal with me, who was condescending and completely unprofessional in the way we spoke to me.
Before I came in I outlined my criteria in an email, so it should have come as no surprise to them what I was looking for. After listing out all the reasons why they couldn’t help me they told me not to waste another brokers time, although I wouldn’t have in the first place if they just paid attention.
