I worked with the realtor Thyago Raposo and he made my entire apartment search less stressful! He even took the time to drive myself and family members to new listing using his own car! He was knowledgeable and listened to our concerns and largely due to his help I am now a proud owner of my new home! We would definitely consider working with him again if looking to purchase again in NYC! We were very lucky to find his contact on Street Easy!
Monica from the team help me to get my dream home in New York!! I enjoyed working with Monica so much, Since the very first day, Monica extended nothing less than professionalism and expert services-offering around the clock communication and unsurpassed local market intelligence. She’s always energetic, enthusiastic, and proactive. Whatever your real estate aspirations in New York may be, its absolutely a great idea allowing New York Casas and Monica to take you where you want to go. Forgot to mention, Monica speaks Mandarin, Cantonese, even Shanghainese!!
If you are looking for your dream apartment, New York Casas and Philip are the best choice. I found mine very quickly thanks to his efforts. He is highly knowledgeable, quick to respond 24/7 and a pleasure to be around. Highly recommend!
The NY Casas Team is the dream team, presenting the best of NY catering to your needs. Catering to not only English speakers, but international buyers as well!Quality people, best service, responsive and experts of NYC
Philip helped us find the perfect place for our stay in New York. Throughout our apartment hunt, he went above and beyond to guide us through the city. He showed great flexibility and replied quickly to our messages, even in evenings or weekends. Besides, he is a social guy and great laugh! We would definitely recommend working with him and his team!
Philip was our representative for the purchase of a condo. He is very detailed and guided us thru the process from beginning to close. I am an experienced business person, but I felt he was more knowledgeable in managing the process because of his experience in the NYC market. It was the right way to do it. I enjoyed both working with him and also getting to know him. I recommend NY Casas for either both the purchase, sale, or rental of a NY property.
Working with Philip and his professional team was very easy. I highly recommend New York Casas to anyone looking for great real estate agents.
Philip is one-of-a kind. He is knowledgable, hands-on and hes quick to follow-up on e-mail and messages. Hes also a very likable guy which made house-hunting an enjoyable experience. Also a short lived experience because Philip doesnt waste time searching the perfect new home for you. It took him only one weekend to identify my preferences and find the perfect match. During the negotiations for the lease he constantly kept me posted and he did not rest until the deal was done. I have nothing but praise for Philip and I recommend him wholeheartedly!
Philip was very responsive and had a good ear for our wishes. That resulted in finding a perfect apartment in only a couple of days. Because the negotiations concerning price and other issues were dealt with in a quick and professional way we are able to move in earlier than expected. Also all his support regarding the paperwork we had to fill in is much appreciated. We highly recommend him!
Highly recommended. Philip’s professionalism, perseverance and deal-making skills are a delight in the overcrowded NY market of real estate agents.
Client focused and tireless are the first things that come to mind when I think about my experience of working with Philip Hordjik of New York Casas. His intimate knowledge of the NYC real estate market and his out of the box thinking helped made what I thought would be a difficult process to be much easier. He actually took the time to understand my needs and wants for my first home then followed up on it.I highly recommend Philip and his team for helping in your search for a new home. The positive Google reviews truly live up to the hype.
We had a really good experience with New York Casas. Philip was friendly, helpful, had a lot of knowledge about the different neighborhoods and was extremely quick in his responses when we reached out any time of the day. While we did not have a clear idea at first what we were looking for, within a matter of days, he had pinpointed the type of place that was exactly what we liked and successfully found an apartment. We definitely would recommend Philip and his company to find a new place youll love.
NY Casas, and in particular Philip, was extremely helpful in finding a house/condo around Gramercy Park. Philip was very quick to respond to all our questions, including during weekends, took the time to walk around the area and sit down for lunch with us. It was professional, quick, pleasant and with a smile - what more could we ask for? Philip was knowledgeable and if he didn’t know something he’d find out in minutes. And most important: we’re happy with the new condo!
A truly wonderful experience in what felt like a wild adventure!If you are looking for a Team that works with integrity, that is fully committed to your needs, that goes above and beyond for you, and that provides you with the peace-of-mind of knowing that you are safe because they know exactly what they are doing, New York Casas Real Estate is your gem.I worked with both Fernanda and Philip and they were incredible. I have nothing but great things to say about both of them.Finding my home was not easy, because of all the very particular and personal/difficult requirements and limitations that I had to make this happen, but, Fernanda was with me from beginning to end, and in every single step of the way she made sure to make this experience pleasant, meaningful and successful, no matter the time, the kind of weather, nor the people we had to deal with during our search. Full commitment and full display of professionalism at all times.Fernanda and Philip are both the (very) rare kind of professionals who truly go above and beyond for their client, working with sincere care and integrity. I cant stress enough how safe and how comfortable I felt in their hands during this important journey. They had my back throughout the whole adventure and they never gave up looking for that one place that would become my happy new home. Through a lot of patience, perseverance, self-motivation, commitment and good energy (thank you so much, Fernanda!!!), we found exactly what I needed.I am happy to recommend this Team to anyone who is in the process of finding their new home and making such an important decision. No matter what your financial situation is, and no matter what your own limitations are, this is a team that will have your back and not give up on you.Thank you both! I am grateful to have found you (by pure accident) and definitely having you over for coffee and desserts as soon as the new home is ready. Many blessings and success to your business!
Apart from qualities we would see in NYC realtors such as punctual, professional, Philip went above and beyond the expectations. He helped me with some data needed for refinancing. I felt like some friend who really want to help you.In addition, he helped me by only charging for the expenses for marketing for the short term lease. Because of pandemic didn’t get a full long term tenant for my unit for the timeframe I was looking for.Looking forward to work with him in the future.
Philip helped me find the perfect place for my 5 year stay in New York. He’s professional, listens carefully to your preferences, shows you the right places, is very responsive to messages and can show you many places in a short period of time. Besides, he is a very social guy and is a good laugh. All in all a great experience. I would highly recommend Philip and his team!
Philip was extremely responsive, helpful, and — in a world where too many people aren’t — reasonable. Through our moving process we always felt like we were being handled fairly, and were hugely appreciative of the high level of professionalism and organization of NY Casas when it came to problem solving and paperwork.
Very good service. As Philip is Dutch, it was very easy to communicate.
Fantastic experience with Philip; best real estate agent we’ve ever had. Moving to NYC with a family of five is no easy proposition but he went above and beyond the call of duty to find our perfect apartment in the UWS - which he did. Any questions we had were answered almost immediately, no-nonsense. Excellent support in filling out the incredible amounts of paperwork, which saved us tons of time. Highly recommended!
Philip is intuitive, attentive and a top-notch professional. His creativity, market knowledge and people skills are second to none. Hes able to think fast and is always solutions-driven. A tireless entrepreneur and a fun person to be around!
We highly recommend working with Philip if you are looking for a place in NYC!Not knowing where to start, Philip arranged viewings for various types of apartments in different areas of NYC making it easier for us to narrow down our search. Within our limited time frame we found the perfect apartment that fits our wishes and needs.Philip is a true professional, always available to answer questions and equally important, he made it a fun experience!
Philip is an awesome, a very positive person providing ONE stop shop services on the real estate market. He is not just a professional, knowledgeable and a committed real-estate agent, but also has a wide network of great experts from legal, insurance and mortgage fields. Working with him was a fantastic experience and you will enjoy every moment of searching for “your dreamed ” property. And as an extra, you have a chance to gain a friend. I cannot wait to buy my next property in New York.
Philip Hordijk is an extremely skilled broker. He knows the market to every detail and I am sure, I would not have gained possession of my apartment without his professional and dedicated help. Together with his extremely good, quick and honest communication skills, he is the broker to have on your side. And last but not least, he is a very nice guy!
We will recommend Philip of New York Casas to anyone in search for an apartment in NYC. He is very knowledgeable, hands on and enthusiastic.He knows how to negotiate the best terms and conditions for his clients, at least he did in our case. On the other hand Philip is not pushy to get things done. During the visits he always allowed us to make our own considerations, rather than that he pushed us to make a decision and was striving for a quick deal.He is also a very nice guy, who appreciates the interpersonal contact which makes it really nice working with him. He also knows a fair bit of language quite fluently, so no matter what language you speak, he can and will always serve your interests in the best possible way.All good!
Philips is a great guy! He is hard working, very responsive, not pushy, well connected (this guy seems to know everyone) and most of all great company when you are on a house hunt!Philip helped us find our lovely apartment in the East Village. Since we moved to New York from abroad he also helped us to explain and understand the New York City rental market with all its complexities. Philips is really experienced in finding an apartment for international people moving from abroad (with no credit history, etc).In the end Philips managed to find an apartment for us that met all the things we were looking for. The apartment wasnt even on the market yet, but Philip heard about it via his connections.We highly recommend him!
Philip has proven a great asset in finding us our beautiful apartment. He has been most helpful through every step of the way. What we feared would be a tricky assignment, ended up being a fun experience. Highly recommend!
Philip facilitated our apartment search for an international family move to New York (which on the surface could have been highly stressful) - and made it a breeze. With a general sense of what we were looking for, and with very little briefing, he was able to intuit and find what we were looking for in one short afternoon. He was highly adept at dealing with the negotiations, formal paperwork and facilitation and has checked in with us since to see how we have been. I would highly recommend Philip to anyone moving internationally especially and really anyone looking to make a move a pleasant and economical experience - ha!
My roommate and I HIGHLY recommend Philip for any and all New York real estate searches. He recently helped us find our dream rental in SoHo, and I can promise you we did not make it easy for him! Rather than throw out a ton of places over one or two days like most realtors in the city, he made sure to truly get to know us and show us only the places that were worth our time. He even recommended we not not move forward with one or two because it didnt look like we were in love with the place (he was right). I would recommend Philip to anyone looking to buy or rent in the city.
Working with New Your Casas and specially our agent Phillip Hordjik was / is a pleasure and super professional experience. They take care of your needs and put you in first place as a customer. I really recommend this agency to do real state business in NYC
We had a great experience with NY Casas. Philip showed he both understands the New York real estate market but also the preferences and wishes from other cultures. We found a great apartment in little time even though we were afraid this might take a long time. So all in all a perfect experience!
Hard to give a higher recommendation. We first met Phil as the broker selling the condo we bought. Impressed by his efficiency and care of the selling family, we asked him to help us rent our condo when we had to suddenly move. There are few people who balance being persistent, knowledgeable, kind, and solutions-oriented like Phil.
My husband and I would like to recommend Philip as an excellent real state broker. He is not only a great listener and professional but also knows very well all great places to live in Manhattan. 100% recommendable.
You will never meet anyone like Philip. His incredible blend of entrepreneurial spirit, drive, enthusiasm, and sense of possibility make him a joy to work with. He has earned my trust over 3 years as a friend and business person, and his work with New York Casas is top-notch. Philip brings his zest for life into his work for his clients, and if you are looking for someone to show you the way as a newcomer to New York City, Philip is the person you should use. I cant recommend him enough.
Philip was a tremendous help in not only translating NYC real estate to newly transplanted Canadians from Toronto, but in also quickly identifying the neighbourhood vibe we were looking for. We met for a quick coffee in the morning and by the afternoon, we had already found the perfect condo with great amenities in a vibrant community! If youre looking for genuine professional insight when house-hunting, I highly recommend you speak to Philip first.
Philip helped me find and secure the most impossible Manhattan apartment - because I have two big dogs! One German Shepherd; the other, a Doberman mix. Both their breeds and sizes exclude them from almost all the apartments I tried to contact on my own.Philip not only used his knowledge and network to help find a wonderful apartment in Upper West Side, but also used his know-how and smarts to get it approved. It could have been extremely difficult but he was confident from the very beginning.He went above and beyond and was very proactive during the process and visited me several times at my workplace to secure the timing of the paperwork.He is also good at tailoring his search to your lifestyle. I now live in a wonderful pre-war apartment near Riverside park after relocating for work. It is a lot bigger space than I imagined and it is fantastic to be this close to the park.Highly recommend Philip! He is simply very very smart and trustworthy in what he does.
Philip is such an amazing guy. Looking for an apartment in NYC is a crazy adventure that you dont want to deal with. Philip makes the process very easy and helps you a lot to make a wise decision. Hes very dedicate and works with you to find the perfect place for you. When he took me to see apartments, I felt that I was hanging out with a friend. I totally recommend him!
Philip was great in helping us find an apartment when we relocated to New York. Philip is a very competent professional with an upbeat and positive personality. He knows the ins and outs of the NY housing market. He kept us well informed along the way, was extremely responsive and always available to answer our questions. I would recommend him to anyone looking to rent an apartment in NY.
Philip was the perfect partner for finding an apartment in New York! He was very knowledgeable, respected our preferences and budget and overall a great guy. If your looking for a top tier broker in NYC, look no further!
Philip is a trusted professional with a deep knowledge of his industry and trade. His values and commitment towards the people he works with characterize his work. It was a pleasure to work with Philip and Im looking forward to continue doing business with him for the long term. I highly recommend him.
Philips experience with helping internationals find and get approved for rental places in NY was extremely valuable to me. No other local real estate agents would have been able to help me through the process as efficiently. I moved to NY from Sydney by myself, without a social security number/ credit etc. or any understanding of the NY real estate market. With Philips help, I managed to get approved for an apartment in Soho, and move in to a new place within 2 weeks of arriving. I could not have asked for more as my goal was to get settled quickly so I could start work and explore the city!
Philip was the best support I could have wished for in my search for a new home in the City. Not knowing where to start and what to be aware of or look out for, Philip made the apartment search very easy and pleasant. He is professional, knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy and enthusiastic. I highly recommend Philip to anyone whos looking for a place in the City.
Philip Hordijk very effectively helped me and my girlfriend find an amazing 1 bedroom apartment in the heart of the East Village. Newly renovated, fantastic views of downtown + financial district skyline and full of sunlight during the day. A true gemstone for small money. Philip quickly got an understanding of our needs and preferences and he also made all the documentation chaos an easy ride even though we knew very little about the city and had no credit history nor social security number.I highly recommend using Philip for finding your NYC home.
I highly recommend Philip if you are looking for a place in New York.Philip is very professional, knows perfectly the marketplace, will always find what you are looking for and what you need and will give you some important perspectives and advises while we are visiting places.Finding an apartment for me has been simple, easy and rapid due to Philips services, even without credit history.
Jeremy Hu is not only extremely professional and knows his job inside and out, he is also very resourceful and a kind soul. I cant recommend Jeremy highly enough!
Philip Hordijk exceeded our expectations during every step of the process. Always available for questions, advise and professional guidance. Via skype, mail, telephone, you name it. Starting with an intake to make sure we understand each other and within days he had a list of qualifying apartments that we did not find ourselves via search engines on the web. He managed the process and paperwork for us very efficiently including solving issues on our behalf. We can recommend him to anyone looking for a professional real estate agent and a great gentleman who understands its customers.
Phil and his team are phenomenal at what they do. I would highly recommend them to any International buyer that wants to purchase real estate in NYC.
Philip worked hard to get us a lot of diverse apartment viewings and followed it through all the way to our lease signing. We really appreciated his efforts and honest and positive attitude during our apartment hunt!
Philip was invaluable for finding our new place in Brooklyn. He went out of his way to show us everything that was on the market and guided us through the entire process - could not have asked for more. Highly recommended.
Philip Hordijk went above and beyond what we expected from a broker. Philip is diligent, extremely knowledgeable and well connected, and also very personable. He found our first apartment in NYC to purchase and worked tirelessly to get the deal across the line. We could not have done this without Philip’s help.
I have closed 2 deals with Phil and his experience and attentiveness are unparalleled. I highly recommend working with him.
I used Philip Hordijk as my Broker when I first moved to New York. He was extremely helpful, diligent and friendly and helped me find a great apartment.I would highly recommend him!
Wet behind the ears, I arrived in the market for a Manhattan apartment with no experience whatsoever working through brokerages to find a rental. I had no idea, having come from San Francisco (where a smile and a handshake with the owner of a flat will, in many cases, seal you a very amenable deal) that, simply by responding to a Craigslist posting, I would quickly find myself at the mercy of a host of ravenous brokers, some of whom would have no reservations about shaking me down for every penny to my name. I went from feeling like a kid in a candy store to feeling like a legless swimmer, bleeding, in a pool of sharks. Thus, it came as a most welcome relief to have met Philip, from New York Casas.My exposure to the game of brokering is limited to what few days it took before I found a home, but it was enough for me to become aware of how competitive, confounding (to would-be tenants, if not to some of the brokers themselves!), and, at times, ruthless the business can be. Especially after reading numerous Yelp reviews about the very individuals I was working with, I was overwhelmed with distrustfulness, and certain that my best interest was the very last priority of my so-called advocates. My paranoia was probably an overreaction, but I was sure that I would not escape some kind of beguiling or another.Most of the brokers I met seemed as though the business had exacted from them a heavy emotional toll. It seemed likely that they had not experienced a lot of success in the game, and thus, by necessity to survive, their will to act truly in the best interest of their clients had been eroded, their passion (if ever there was any) deflated, and their ethical posture bent, or even crippled. They were despondent, and their pessimism made me feel that they would be unlikely to find me a suitable home, and that it would somehow be my fault.But in every aspect that I have described about these hardened souls, Philip was a profound exception. Where they were dismal, Philip was buoyant. Where they sought advantage, he sought mutual value. What they lacked in sensitivity to my preferences for a home, Philip possessed, with strong intuition, after showing me only one apartment. It was clear that Philip had a different take on life, a sharp edge, possibly many interests outside of the game, that he plays the game the way he wants to *because* he wants to, and that he takes good pride in his work. I would be genuinely surprised if his satisfaction with a deal were ever to surpass the satisfaction of a client.Interestingly, I did not find my apartment through Philip, because I was still oblivious to some of the rules of the game (which effectively prevent a client from being shown an apartment by one broker, then accepting a lease through the advocacy of another broker). Nevertheless, I was so impressed by his professionalism, intellect, and taste, that I felt compelled to backtrack and write him a sparkling, 5-star review.To any friend moving into Manhattan, or relocating to a new apartment in Manhattan, I would happily refer Philip, thereby sparing them from a heap of unnecessary anxiety.
Knowledgable, experienced, well qualified real estate professional. Phillip possess a strong understanding of New York real estate. 100% recommended.
Philip is an energitic person, who you can fully rely on. The whole house searching process went very smooth, because he knows his way around. Thanks again for your professional advise and help. Kind regards,Quinten
Great customer service! Thanks
Very helpful for anyone looking to find a new apartment in NYC for investment or residence.
Seriously! How easy can finding a brilliant place in NYC be?! New York Casas was quick in respons and found us (in no time) a fantastic appartement in the Village. Am usually not the person to write a review on the internet, but since I was impressed, I believe New York Casas deserves this rating and you deserve to know that these people can set you up with a place to stay in NYC!
We had a very good experience with New York Casas! We were looking for a rental in East Village and Philip showed us several apartments. He was very kind and listened well to our wishes. For us it was an extra advantage that he could speak Dutch, so we spoke in our native language.
We found a great Appartment. And are very happy with Phillip as a broker. His tremendous energy, his out of the box thinking and his flexibility and humility to go also after an apartment we found on internet, brought us to the right apartment which fulfills all our wishes. He is the best broker we had met in NY! And he did an fantastic job. He is there for you 24/7. From early in the morning till late and in the weekend. And it was fun working with him. Thanks Philip! you did a great job! We Family Sala-Verkaaik are very happy with our dream place!
Maria was really helpful
A lot of apartment owners.

María Fernanda is a very professional person who works to meet all the clients needs! He has a lot of patience and a cordial treatment at all times! The predisposition of his person to help in the search for the best place to live, makes the experience of working with him a fantastic one!I recommend his services and I value the quality of person he is!
Wonderful beautiful city to be able to live in if you have a right conditions a little right then having finished so high school I will go to college in New York administration then law right then Bachelor of Law to be able to buy a house there has a better life than to survive bye one
A great job! And fabulous experience! Thank our broker María Fernanda for her magnificent management. His knowledge of the sector, his professionalism, and his affectionate treatment, has made a priori difficult easy and comfortable !! Thank you very much for finding us our new home !!
Simply incredibleIt was great to do business with Philip from NYCasas, tailor-made work from the beginning to the delivery of the keys
The experience as a whole with New York Casas was super positive. Easy procedures without excessive bureaucracy during the negotiation process, the tenants are always very available both to contact them and to provide support in whatever is necessary, and the high quality of the properties on which they work.
María de Souza Melchior Affonso I am going to live new yogi I will not leave her no
Philip Hordijk was excellent in helping us find a 2 bedroom investment apartment in Brooklyn.Always considerate and willing to answer the questions we had.He scheduled visits with the brokers who were selling the apartments other than in open houses, enabling us to know much better what we were buying.One of the advantages that we found with Philip was fluency in Portuguese, because my father does not speak English and was able to clarify all the doubts he had over the phone.Another advantage is his knowledge of the regions throughout NYC, as he has sometimes advised us not to buy a property, even if it is more expensive, because of the location that had little security.If you are Brazilian looking for a property in NY, Philip is the best person to help you find something that fits your will and need.
Philip and Marcia were essential in my search for the right apartment to live in NY!They have a deep knowledge of the New York Real Estate Market and helped me a lot!I definitely recommend them!
Thanks to New York Casas we have found the perfect rental apartment in New York. Philip knows the market very well, works extremely professionally and efficiently. He prepared our apartment search perfectly and organized individual viewing appointments for us. We had special requirements for the terms of the lease. Philip negotiated with the landlord for us and made sure that all of our change requests were taken into account.He has always responded to our inquiries by mail / message / telephone from Germany and then on site within a very short time.Overall a very enjoyable experience. Absolutely recommended!
We bought a small apartment in NY and the best thing was working with New York houses !!! The best service from Philip, it was truly a pleasure to work with them and find quickly and efficiently what we were looking for!highly recommended!
Philip is a great person, super attentive and willing to help solve all problems. My husband and I were very pleased with your dedication and your work. I dont know what would become of us if we didnt have his help. Indicate to all people :)
Philip, besides being a very competent professional, is also friendly and pleasant, did a great job with a lot of attention, dedication, variety and qualities of options that resulted in a wonderful apartment that I love !!I was very pleased and recommend it !!
He sings me a lot for k is beautiful I love new york
I must say that it was fortunate to meet Philip. In a country that is not yours, it is a peace of mind to be in touch with someone who knows the real estate market so well and, above all, who is so attentive and so well disposed. Philip also has a great ability to solve problems and always does it with joy and a smile.Through it we get the perfect apartment for us: it has everything we could need, the location is ideal and the price is very competitive.Thanks for everything!
My internship at New York Casas allowed me to discover the real estate world of New York but also the city of New York. Moreover Phillip and his team are very welcoming and available which allowed me to adapt more quickly but also to spend pleasant moments with them!
I absolutely recommend Philip.A few weeks ago I moved to NYC from Argentina. Before meeting Philip, I had received recommendations from brokers, but when I spoke with them I realized that they had no idea what it is like to look for an apartment for someone who comes from another country.Through New York Casas I contacted Philip, and from then on the experience was excellent. He asked me the right questions to identify the departments that I would like and made a perfect selection of departments that might interest me, which we then visited in person.It is said that looking for an apartment in NYC, especially if you just arrived, is stressful. Philip took care of making it an extremely pleasant experience.Again, I recommend it 100%.
We contacted Philip online, from the beginning we received top quality care.We were very pleased that Philip focused on getting to know us in order to guide us on the possible places that met our expectations.Throughout the process, Philip was aware and supporting us with the doubts that arose. He was always sensible to tell us what could and could not be done.Today we are very happy with the place we found.We highly recommend the services offered by Philip and his partners, since they know the real estate movement in NY perfectly.
After exploring several real estate agencies, I can say that they are the best option to get advice on real state in NYC. From the beginning it was a pleasure working with Philip and his team. I started using their services for short-term rentals (a few months only when I had to settle in NY for work). They allowed me to get to properties that I could never have been abroad.In addition, they have helped several friends find opportunities to purchase property in NYC with great success. They listen carefully to what one is looking for, they do not try to sell for sale as other real estate agents do, they are patient and they look for where other real state agencies do not arrive. I would recommend them all for their excellent service, their great knowledge of the local NYC market and their special attention to the needs of the Latin American investor.
Excellent servico!
House
I intend to live in this place
Excellent!
