Finding an apartment in Boston is never easy, and there are a lot of awful realtors out there that will show you something either out of your price range or something you explicitly said you didn't want. Luckily, I met David Sugarman who actually listened to everything I wanted, and was able to show me all the apartments that met my criteria. When I mentioned I had a friend who lived in a building I liked, he spoke with the owner to get the apartments in his inventory. What a guy! He was always professional, and had a really friendly staff whenever I was in the office. I highly recommend Harvard Ave Realty to anyone looking for an apartment in the Boston area.

  We were struggling to find an apartment FAST when we heard some excellent reviews about Orit. We were a bit hesitant about using a realtor at first but Orit quickly put our mind at ease as she proved to the most efficient, patient and reliable realtor we could possibly hope for. She was very informative and helpful, was candid about every apartment she had to offer, and seemed to genuinely try to find the best option for us. As we were just moving to Boston she had the knowledge and experience to steer us to neighborhoods that were right for us. We ended up finding a nice apartment that perfectly suits our needs within just a few days. with Orit the search for an apartment, signing the lease and the entire move was very smooth and easy. Thanks!!

  Orit Aviv! She is the best! We moved from Florida to Boston, We came for a weekend to find an apartment, on the first day, right off the airport she showed us a few apartments until we found the one! a wonderful apartment! Thanks so much! you did a really good job!

  Unfortunately, I signed my lease before I realized how unprofessional this business was. Our realtor constantly feeds us false information (costs, move in/out dates, amenities, etc) and she is extremely unreliable. They don't respond to emails and they handle things very poorly. I would NOT recommend.

  I never thought I would deal with such a horrible and dishonest realty. It was my first time dealing with brokers in Boston and I had no experience.  The mistakes they made are uncountable. They deposited my money into the landlord's account before the deal went into fruition. They didn't give me any receipt and thought photocopying cash was an acceptable receipt. They modified the address and broker fee on the brokerage disclosure form after we signed the paper. They kept pushing for the deal to happen although it was clearly a complicated situation that we needed to walk away from. They didn't give us the addendum till lease signing day and then blamed us for not taking the house because the realtor worked so hard and they kept demanding their broker fee even though we ended up without a house and even though only 2 of the 4 people signed the broker fee agreement which clearly sated that: all prospective tenants must sign prior to moving forward with the application. when I went to get my money back, they didn't give me all of it, and David, the owner, was very rude to me and treated me disrespectfully and charged me a $200 application fee though only 2 people signed the applications. I am still in the process of the dealing with the landlord to get my money back. All of this wouldn't have happened had they been professional and ethical.
