February 2024 by Janey Syu , The whole process went very smooth and fast
Carolyn is so helpful and reliable. She responded to my questions quickly. The whole process went very smoothly and fast. During the move-in day, I was surprised by move-in gifts, some tools, prepared by Sovereign Associates. I highly recommend Carolyn and Sovereign Associates for anyone who is looking for a new NYC apartment.


December 2023 by Tina Edell , By far the best experience I have had so far
I picked up the keys on Feb. 17th and officially moved in that weekend. I love the unit and the neighborhood is great! Carolyn was wonderful throughout the entire process. She was very communicative and easy to reach. She had made some nice recommendations for internet providers, stores and movers. I did contact Peter at Oz moving and their team was very efficient as well. I have been in the city for over a decade and have moved around a lot. Lived in four of the five boroughs including Jersey. This has been by far the best experience I have had so far.

June 2023 by [email protected] , “Terrific! Highly recommended”
Carolyn Gibbs was terrific! She immediately understood our needs in finding an apartment for our daughter. The first apartment Carolyn showed us our daughter loved! Carolyn also helped up with the paperwork and submitting to the building. We met the manager of the building with Carolyn too. An easy and positive experience renting an apartment in NYC. I highly recommend Carolyn and the folks at Sovereign Associates.

May 2022 by Elissa , "the apartment not only met my most important criteria but also looked exactly as it did in photos posted online and reflected the description in the listing”
"The same day I reached out to Carolyn about an apartment listing I''d seen online, Carolyn met with me and conducted an in-person tour of the apartment. I immediately fell in love: the apartment not only met my most important criteria but also looked exactly as it did in photos posted online and reflected the description in the listing. Carolyn kept me updated throughout the application process and quickly responded to any questions I had. Prior to that tour with Carolyn, I''d felt disheartened: I had toured numerous apartments in the Washington Heights area and a good number of them did not reflect the listing photos or description. With Carolyn, I got what I saw, and then some!"

May 2022 by Hannah R. , “ Extremely helpful, attentive & friendly…very organized”
I worked with Carolyn! Extremely helpful, attentive and friendly-- made a stressful, time sensitive situation very organized and answered all my questions with care and diligence. So thankful for my experience and if needed I intend to use Sovereign Associates again for future apartment hunting. Thanks again to Carolyn and the Sovereign Associates team!

June 2021 by Westly K. , GREAT EXPERIENCE; WORKED DILIGENTLY
We had a great experience with Sovereign Associates, and Carolynn Gibbs in particular. She worked diligently to accommodate our budget and ensure we got the apartment we desired. Thank you!

May 2021 by Carolyn L. , LED US RIGHT TO OUR PERFECT APARTMENT
We had a great experience dealing with Carolyn Gibbs at Sovereign Associates. She listened to what we wanted and led us right to our perfect apartment. Moving to NYC from Indiana, I was totally clueless about the process, and at the time I was so busy with work and school - but she kept on me, and my mom/guarantor, to make sure we got our application all together for a timely submission. So A+ for her personally and also for Sovereign Associates. We would definitely go through them again in the future.

December 2020 by Nami K. , THANK YOU
I got an apartment through Sovereign Associates in July. It was my first apartment in NY. I like my apartment. I got helped a lot from Carolyn. Thank you =). She replied very quickly.

November 2020 by Karen G. , KNOWS HER NEIGHBORHOOD; TOOK TIME AND CARE; PUT ME AT EASE
It was an unexpected pleasure to work with someone who knows the city and her neighborhood as Carolyn does. I''ve lived in the same apartment in NYC for twenty years and am a New Yorker, I knew what I wanted, where I wanted it and how much I could afford. Carolyn smoothly and graciously listened and complied. I found exactly what I wanted. She took care and time walking me from place to place, through neighborhoods putting me at ease and making the entire experience free of stress from beginning to end with moving tips and contact numbers. I hope to not move again for twenty years. If I ever need to, I hope she''s still around!
