Citi Habitats

Citi Habitats is a residential real estate brokerage firm in New York City that specializes in the rental market. Andrew Heiberger founded the firm in 1994 and sold it in 2004 to NRT, a much larger rival, for $49.6 million. The brokerage is now a division of the large public company Realogy. The firm's brokers match landlords and renters at all price points in the market, and the company publishes reports about this real estate market niche.
