When I was relocated to London for work on short notice, Matthew helped us quickly secure a renter for our beloved FiDi apartment. His deep knowledge of the rental market, combined with his understanding of our specific neighborhood, helped us achieve an excellent rental price in a very short period of time. Throughout the process, Matthew was incredibly responsive, detail oriented, and calm. He made what could have been a stressful process - particularly while we were managing an international move - feel remarkably smooth and straightforward. We couldn’t have been happier with the experience and would highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking to rent their home in New York.

Matt Melinger helped me buy my apartment, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He was punctual and incredibly responsive. I never waited long for an answer. Better still, he always had a plan. He explained each step before it happened, and when it came time to bid, he guided me through the strategy so I felt confident in every decision. Matt adds real value at every stage. He gets things done, and he has a knack for doing the right thing at exactly the right time. Matt is also a genuine pleasure to spend time with: fun and funny, but serious when it counts. I always knew he was looking out for me. If you're buying in New York, call Matt.

Working with Matthew Mellinger to prepare and sell my mother’s apartment on the Upper East Side was one of the best decisions we could have made. From day one, Matthew approached the process with extraordinary professionalism, urgency, and attention to detail. What initially felt like an overwhelming challenge became manageable because he immediately stepped in with a clear plan, assessed exactly what needed to be done, coordinated repairs and improvements, brought in outstanding vendors, and created a thoughtful strategy that elevated the apartment and positioned it for success. What truly set Matthew apart was not just his market expertise—it was his ability to navigate every twist and turn with calm, confidence, and determination. We encountered difficult moments throughout the process, including board approvals and buyer complications, but Matthew handled each hurdle seamlessly. …

We encountered difficult moments throughout the process, including board approvals and buyer complications, but Matthew handled each hurdle seamlessly. At one point, when a buyer situation fell through, he already had a backup plan in motion and kept everything moving forward without missing a beat. His negotiation skills, foresight, responsiveness, and ability to anticipate challenges were exceptional. Most importantly, throughout what was an emotional process for our family, he made us feel supported, informed, and completely taken care of. Matthew doesn’t just sell real estate—he manages complex situations with excellence and delivers results. We are incredibly grateful for everything he did and cannot recommend him highly enough. If you are selling in New York City, especially in a co-op environment, you want Matthew in your corner.
