A&E Launches In-House Leasing for NYC Apartments

A&E Real Estate has launched 1898, a new in-house leasing company. Named for the year that all five boroughs officially came together to create the City of New York, 1898 expands A&E’s internal capabilities and further enhances its full-service approach to ownership and property management.  

A&E will list and lease all its available apartments through 1898, which includes apartments in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx. In addition, A&E will continue to partner with select local neighborhood brokers. 

“The development and launch of 1898 leverages our well-cultivated market knowledge and in-house expertise to grow the services we provide directly to our residents, both current and future,” said James Patchett, CEO of A&E. “Nobody knows the neighborhoods we operate in better than we do, and launching our own leasing operation will give us even better market intelligence, while providing better services in a more cost-efficient way.”
