Hi all — could use some neighborhood and broker recs. My husband and I are relocating back to the area after several years away (I used to live in park slope), and he’s starting an entry-level (ie not super high paying) job on wall street that will require him to be there by 6:30am. I’m having a baby in the fall, and probably won’t be working again until spring next year. We want to pick a bklyn neighborhood to rent in with an eye towards buying later. First, I could really use some leads on good, brooklyn knowledgeable brokers who can help with relocation rentals (someone previously posted about how frustrated they were when they went to an open house and the staffed agent didn’t even know the nearest subway). Second, we’re not sure which neighborhoods to focus on, since we’ve been away. Advice?

Thanks!
