Celeste made selling my apartment. I was living away from NY when listing my apartment and her team went above and beyond to make things as smooth and easy as possible. Bonus: Celeste has an amazing network of professionals she can connect you with--I also had a great experience with the movers, cleaners, and attorney that she recommended.
Adrienne Stark
What stand outs for me about Celeste is her responsiveness and knowledge about the market. She has been able to find good tenants for us in a timely manner. She is also helpful with tips to get the apartment ready for viewing. I trust her to always do what is in our best interests. And last but not the least, she is also very easy to work with.

In the craziest housing market, this team was so patient and helpful every single step of the process. Coming to showings, communicating with brokers for all your questions, talking through and reviewing all your paperwork - they truly have you covered beginning to end. Not another team in New York that will look after you like their own family. Big thanks to them and I highly recomme...

Big shoutout to Dusan and the team! Dusan helped us find the perfect apartment last year. His professionalism and dedication made the process smooth and stress-free. I’m thrilled with my new place and will definitely be using their services for any future moves. Highly recommend!
Maya Smith
Dusan and Celeste were so wonderful and patient in helping me get into my new apartment! It was a lot of necessary documentation but they guided me through the process and made sure I understood it from the open house to post move-in! Highly recommend this team!
Maddie Hoffman
I cannot recommend Dusan enough! He made everything incredibly simple and helped me so much. Moving and finding an apartment in New York can be very stressful but thanks to him everything was smooth and the communication on his end was amazing. I’ll be telling all my friends about him and his team!!

My wife and I recently had the pleasure to work with Celeste and her team to list our UES rental apartment. To say that the experience was fantastic is an understatement. From start to finish Celeste and her team were professional, responsive, and knowledgeable.
Dan Dao
Moving in from Europe, Celeste and her team have been an invaluable help finding us our new rental home. She was very attentive to our needs and wants and provided us with lots of options in order to narrow down, what we were searching for. Being foreigners and new to the New York rental market, she held our hand through the entire process and we felt 100 % comfortable relying on her...
Helena Rudolph
Through a pandemic, purchase, prospective sale and multiple rentals, it's been an absolute joy and pure relief to work with Celeste & team. Celeste is on top of everything down to the smallest details. She is incredibly responsive, well-versed and professional (I often think there are 5 of her because of how she handles every stage of the process with such ease :). I can't recommend w...

Celeste worked tirelessly and was able to rent out my NYC apartment during one of the most difficult periods of time in the rental market's history (due to covid). Despite steep price pressure and competition, she found us wonderful tenants who we hope to have stay for years to come. I cannot say enough about her work ethic and abilities, which became extra meaningful during turbulent...

Celeste is an out most professional at what she does. As a property owner she assisted in renting one of my units and has made everything with ease. She is attentive to every detail of making a seamless transaction for both parties. I can say without hesitation that I have found my broker that I can put my trust in.
Gary Langshteyn
Celeste guided me through my first home purchase with ease. We saw over 30 apartments in a whirlwind tour across Brooklyn. Throughout the process, Celeste kept detailed notes and ensured all my questions were answered. The sponsor and sponsor's agent weren't particularly responsive or easy to deal with and I am so grateful I had Celeste on my side. She kept things moving forward and a...

Celeste and her team are my go-to brokers! I met Celeste when I bought my apartment and when it was time to rent it out I knew Celeste and her team were the only option. The Celeste Pandhi Team is thorough and detail oriented. They know exactly what to focus on and were the best guides in this whole process. Thanks so much Celeste! You and your team are truly the best brokers in NYC!
