What Our Customers Think

If you''re looking for an agent to help you find the right home, look no more! Anne is the best real estate agent I have ever come across (and more generally an amazing human being). She will go above and beyond to help you find your dream house. I can''t say enough good things about her and will be referring all of my friends to her in the future.

Dear Karla --
Hats off to you again! Our fourth transaction with you and you had multiple offers AND a qualified buyer within 22 days of the listing. Thank you for being appropriately aggressive, diligent and totally professional throughout the entire process. You truly made this sale happen, were prepared with backup if it didn't, and your communication was superb throughout. It's a pleasure doing business with you.

Karla is one of the most amazing real-estate agents we have ever worked with. We have had quite a few bad experiences with purchasing and searching for apartments in the past. We are also not easy people to work with because we are very picky and want perfection but Karla''s incredible work ethics and professionalism put us at ease. Karla is very personable. We got to know each other well and in the end became good friends. Karla spent the whole year helping us to find the right place. I loved that she did not pressure us into going into any deal if we did not feel comfortable or weren''t sure that it was the right place. She is very optimistic and whenever there was another "disappointment" she would always find the right thing to say and give us hope. When the time came for the actual purchase Karla and her team was incredible!!! She led us through a very exhausting and tedious process as a true professional! She had answers to all of our questions. Karla has made one of the most stressful experiences of buying a new home a breeze for us.
I loved working with Karla Rizo and I will choose to go with her anytime again. I highly recommend Karla for any of your real estate needs!!

As a first time buyer in the Manhattan real estate market, it can be very overwhelming. I was fortunate enough to meet Karla early on in my search for a new home. I would absolutely recommend Karla to anyone in need of a licensed realtor. From the time of our initial conversations, Karla was able to listen to my requirements and build my search around those parameters exclusively without trying to encourage me to re-prioritize my ‘must haves.’ Once we were in contract to purchase, Karla went above and beyond whenever I needed her to – whether it was questions about next steps, attorneys, mortgage bankers, etc. Karla always had the right person in mind, or knew how to handle the situation.
At the time of closing, there were a few delays on the seller’s side which could have prevented me from closing before calendar year-end. Karla and her team were able to escalate to the right individuals to move things along so that all parties were able to attend the closing and meet my timelines.
I commend Karla’s attention to detail, especially with lengthy board packages, and negotiating tactics. I would gladly use Karla again and have already passed her name to some acquaintances for future reference. They would be lucky to have Karla on their side.

I am new to NYC (few months) from San Francisco and Anne Edling has been phenomenal in her search for finding me the perfect apartment. Super helpful, patient and makes sure all my needs and accommodations are met. She goes out of her way to help her buyers and is super flexible when needing to do showings, speak or need any more info on areas.

I look forward to referring Anne to my friends and seeing how much more success will come her way. Crest is lucky to have her! Brokers/Agents in NYC are known to be shady and I had been warned to be careful, and I''m super glad I came across Anne.

I would highly recommend Anne as your realtor whether you are looking for an apartment or thinking of buying. When looking for an apartment in December I came across many others playing a numbers game and it was both frustrating & time consuming; but Anne took the time to understand what I was looking for, my priorities and what features I would be willing to compromise on. She was personable & also went as far as helping me measure spaces to conceptualize how I could layout my furniture. Anne made finding the right apartment in a tense NYC market a seamless experience!

My husband and I relocated from Barcelona to NYC and Anne was crucial in our apartment search! In a week we had visited tons of nice apartments and finally got one! She was super helpful with paperwork too! Don’t know what we would have done without her!

I can''t recommend the Crest Group any more highly. I worked with Anne Edling and found her invaluable to my apartment search. She made sure to take the time to help me find the right apartment for me, and was always open to questions no matter how silly they were. Despite not having a guarantor Anne helped me find a way to get an apartment in the city and I will always be grateful for her help!

Anne was tremendous to work with! She was extremely responsive and thorough in her answers and was patient with me as I went through my decision-making process. In the end, she helped me secure a fantastic apartment and I would highly recommend working with Anne for all of your NYC apartment needs!
