Originally from Toronto, I came to New York to study Fashion at Parsons School of Design.
I love New York City because it offers a culturally rich landscape that attracts creatives and people in the arts from all over the world. With its many museums and bustling art scene there are always interesting things to do and see. I’ve lived here for the last 30 years and I can’t imagine living anywhere else.
Having spent several years working in the Fashion industry I appreciate good design in all of its forms. Clients tell me that I’m a good listener and with my attention to detail and ability to follow through I look forward to helping you find the perfect apartment for your lifestyle, personality and budget.

Kim was incredible to work with. She went above and beyond in showing me the apartment and making sure everything worked. She went above and beyond to make sure that the apartment was ready and clean. Thank you Kim and hope to work with you in the future again. Ethan Josovitz | December 2023

“Kim was amazing throughout the entire process - right from showing of property, to review and signing of necessary documentation and through to pickup of keys. She assisted with a total turnaround time that was less than 1 week in a moment when I desperately needed to find a place to move into in a few days. She even provided after deal-closure support with building management even though this was not an obligation; and left me a little practical move-in gift that was very helpful. Despite my busy and sometimes unpredictable daily schedule, she was ready to facilitate process flow when needed and I truly appreciate the help! Her team was also ever-ready to provide extra support. As someone relatively new to the US, it was great to have her guide me and make this as smooth as possible.” Bridget Asante | November 2023

'Kim was a great help. My boyfriend and I moved to America from Germany so we are not familiar with the American housing market. Kim was a great support, always available and guided us through the process. We are very grateful to her and feel very comfortable in our new apartment." Stefanie Muehlbauer | January 2023

Moving from out of state and being a first time renter in NY was definitely nerve wracking, but Kim Williams could not have been a better agent to help me navigate this treacherous search and address the various concerns me and my flatmates had. Kim Williams truly worked with us to make sure there was transparency, efficient communication, and respect between all parties up until we all settled into the apartment. Kim truly made this daunting process as smooth and clear as possible for all of us, especially with the fast-paced timeline. I highly recommend Kim Williams and her team to anyone looking for a place. Thank you so much Kim and team for all of your help and time. Cecelia N. | January 2023

I got to work with Kim and she was great. Excellent communication through the whole process and
took time to show multiple units. The process was smooth and efficient. She even checked in after
move in to make sure things were going well. Thanks Kim. Tatyana D | November 2022

I had a chance to meet with Kim. Not only did she help me find an apartment but she also sent me constant updates. A relationship of trust was established from the first contact. I can feel that her concern is to find the best for the people she works with. She is always dynamic, smiling, and generous. You will not regret working with her. - Amine | October 2022

As a first-time student renter in Manhattan during the initial stages of the pandemic, I was a very nervous client, and Kim Williams could not have been a better real estate agent in the face of my many detailed requests and questions. Her patience, kind demeanor, and similar orientation to pernickety details established her as a significant cut above the majority of other agents with whom I interacted during that period. This was three years ago, and I still do not hesitate to recommend Ms. Williams' services to my friends and colleagues today, nor would I hesitate to contact her again should I again be on the rental market at any point in the future. - KMS | August 2022

I would like to express my great gratitude to Mr. Gregory and Miss. Kim! I began to seek an apartment two months ago, I have tried to contact several brokers, but most of them weren’t getting back to me! There might be some trouble in making a lease with an international student, however, l got the reply from Gregory when l felt hopeless, he kindly offered me the best source about my expectation, and then I just followed up with his assistant Kim who is also a nice lady, to make my rental processing smoothly! Thanks to all staff of the agency, l definitely will recommend it to my friend who needs a rental! - Sophie Wu | July 2022

"I worked with Kim to get an apartment for my Son who is a student. She was incredibly helpful not only with having the inventory to look at, but also she really walked us through all of the steps to make the process streamlined, smooth and secure. She was always accessible to respond to any questions we had along the way. Knowledgable and professional! Thank you Kim!" - Monica Lombardo | May 2020

"I spent about four months looking for the perfect place, as anyone knows in New York City that in itself is a luxury because apts go so quickly. One night the perfect place appeared along with the most amazing agent Kim. I was so excited and she met me right away to show me what would be my new home. Kim aside from be very accomplished and brilliant at her job is also beyond willing to help you be comfortable with your choice. She met twice at the place so I could make sure I loved it, she and Sovereign did everything to execute my lease quickly so I could in. Lots of agents even in the middle of a pandemic when business is a scramble for real estate, continued to be pushy or unprofessional. Kim and her team kept the bar raised high and for that alone I would recommend them and certainly if I need them would only use them." - Athena A. | December 2020

"I highly recommend Kim Williams at Sovereign. Kim helped me find a lovely apartment in a brownstone on the UWS in Oct 2020 and was a pleasure to work with. She showed me the place a week prior to my desired move-in date and during that entire week Kim organized not only the standards like my lease application and signing process but also executed successfully on an extremely demanding timeline. Mine was not an easy situation, but Kim stayed in constant communication to update me on my application, the painting and repairs at the apartment and guiding me on the best way to approach the management going forward. Most importantly I felt very comfortable with Kim and I thought she was kind, honest, positive and never pushy, overbearing or discouraged. Thank you Kim!" - Rufat Y. | November 2020
