Zealestate Group

For over a decade, Omar Saeed Butt and Zealestate Group have been ignoring laws, scamming clients, and giving kickbacks to landlords. If the scathing reviews on Yelp, Google, Reddit, and others, are not enough red flags for you... I'd avoid a brokerage that was evicted for non-payment of rent!

BEWARE OF MR. OMAR BUTT!!!!! My partner and i went to view an apartment in gowanus, and had to let ourselves in with a lock box KEY. omar was not there. the fee was 15%, near 7k (obscene). I asked Omar to offer the owners full payment of rent, but a 1 month fee. IN the meantime, i was looking up the listing further on the internet and TURNS OUT THE APARTMENT HAD ALREADY BEEN RENTED TO PEOPLE BY A DIFFERENT BROKER. IT IS WRONG TO WASTE HONEST FOLKS TIME!!!!! THIS IS CALLED SCAMMING!!!! stay far far away if you value your time, money, and sanity.

Zealestate and Omar specifically will try to scam you anyway they can, sometimes the scams don't even make sense!! They're just unprofessional and uninterested in working with anyone. I cannot conceive of how they are licensed to practice real estate.
