It just seems like an information gathering application . Not interested , uninstalled ### 1/5 — 404s point to no QA *2021-04-04* Wanted to use and the terms of use and privacy policy link to 404 pages. So do they have no QA to catch such minor issues? **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. Please check our newest version, with lots of improvements to make your apartment hunt easier. ### 1/5 — Luke is an IRL friend *2021-02-10* Luke says “text me like you’d text any friend” but it’s so real it takes about 10min to reply back and sometimes leave you on read 😂 ### 3/5 — UPDATE: Sort of works *2020-10-20* UPDATE: So now I got some actual listings from this service, so I updated my rating from 1 to 3 stars. However, they’re not really what I asked for. Maybe I’m old, but it seems so much easier and faster to use filters on StreetEasy than to try to figure out how to structure your commands to make this bot find the right thing for you. In the end, all it does (I assume) is take listings from the sites I already use. In a way it’s another layer on top and I’m not sure what value it adds. It definitely makes it harder to see what’s out there. ORIGINAL REVIEW: It asked me what am I looking for, I answered. Then it said it will send me listings. I said OK. After that crickets. I tried asking again, but no response. Don’t know if it’s just me or the whole service is broken. ### 4/5 — Luke is great, but some improvements needed *2021-05-23* I have been using Luke for a few weeks now, as my girlfriend and I are checking the market before our lease ends in July. The app works well, but there are some usability issues. Adding a second person to the chat doesn't work very well, and it isn't immediately obvious how to get exit the group chat and go back to previous results. Also, the text entry box randomly disappears, and I have to kill the app to ask Luke another question. Finally, I let Luke know that I was his father, and he didn't even respond! :( Otherwise, great app and I look forward to using it more during my search. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback, I appreciate it! I've updated my app to fix these usability issues. Looking forward to helping you find and buy your dream NYC home. (may the force be with you..). Luke. ### 4/5 — Enjoying the app *2021-03-14* I really like this app it’s a fun way to look for an apartment, but I have one major problem with it.. The back button on iPhone app is so small that I have to press it 5+ times every time I want to go back. Which is annoying and I end up closing it down. **Developer response:** Hi Ammar - Thanks for your feedback, please check our newest version, we have done a lot of improvements to make your life easier :) Would love to get some more feedback from you again! ### 5/5 — The GOAT of it all! *2021-05-14* This app is the best of all the apps when it comes to real estate/condo/apartment/house hunting! Gives you real time informations regarding the property and blg units! I’m a first time buyer and some of the apps I used really gave me a hard time knowing facts and informations. You are probably nuts if Luke doesn’t satisfy the hunt you’re in. Thanks, Luke! ### 5/5 — Luke makes it so easy to search for homes *2021-05-05* My partner and I are looking to buy our first place, and the hardest part with brokers has been the communication. Our friend suggested we try Luke and the difference has been like night and day. Being able to all communicate in the same group chat while searching for homes has made this process so much simpler. ### 5/5 — A magical experience *2021-05-05* Think Siri but for real-estate and actual work. ### 5/5 — F.Hopkins *2021-05-04* Luke is easy to use and allowed me to gain a great amount of information regarding my property search. I highly recommend Luke and was extremely satisfied with this stress free approach to finding my well researched new home in Manhattan!! Thank you Luke! ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ingenious! *2021-05-04* Anyone looking for an apartment should download this app RIGHT NOW. Luke sent me listings within my criteria as soon as they came on the market and offered clever insights and advice along the way. Any question I had about the real estate market in NYC, purchasing in a coop, and even apartment specific questions, Luke answered. I used the “Personalized Analysis” tool to get a breakdown of what any apartment in NYC is worth - think “Zestimate” + transparency and actual data so you can see how Luke arrived at the apartment’s fair market value. Brilliant concept! ### 5/5 — Prompt and efficient *2021-05-03* I found the combination of chat and listings to be very convenient. Luke is very quirky and prompt with his responses. Cool tool, will use again! ### 5/5 — I never write reviews but *2021-05-02* Luke is the best! Found an apartment through their platform and Luke made it seamless and eliminated all the junk for me. It/he also helped me realize things I didn’t even know I wanted! Like sun exposure and in unit washer drier. 10/10 recommend for anyone looking for an apartment in nyc. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2021-04-23* The app constantly give you updates on apartments and keep updating until you find what’s great for you !!! Love the app ### 5/5 — Really Clever *2021-04-16* I wish I had thought of this. Luke allows me to look for homes so much more efficiently, but at the same time I’m able to get the help I need when I need it. ### 5/5 — Love Luke! *2021-04-11* Browsing for apartments with Luke is a pleasure! It’s like talking to a friend who will find all the best listings for you. He always sends me apartments that I like and eliminates the hassle of browsing through tons of listings to find the good ones. He is also super friendly, has a good sense of humor and sends the best gifs. Love Luke!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
