Ryan Serhant Biography

On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy, the subprime mortgage market crashed, and 24-year-old Ryan Serhant started working in real estate for the first time. The Serhant Team, founded by Ryan, has more than 60 seasoned agents and marketing support employees and has sold more than $1.6 billion in real estate in only the previous two years. Between Brooklyn and Manhattan, Ryan's team closed $838 million in sales in 2017, around $500 million more than the second-ranked team in New York. In addition to multi- and single-family houses, site purchases, investment sales, and high-end residential condo and co-op sales and leasing, Ryan and his agents also focus on these areas. Having completed over $16 billion in new construction sales and 50 projects in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Long Island City, Miami, and Los Angeles, the Serhant Team New Development division is a significant player. Ryan has established price-per-square-foot records around the city and counts some of the most influential individuals in the world among his clientele. The Serhant Team has developed partnerships with hundreds of agents worldwide and maintains a diversified inventory of exclusive listings. Ryan and his team can find the appropriate buyer with the right selling with exceptional success because of these techniques and in-depth market expertise; their lifetime list-to-sale ratio is 94.5%. The real estate portions of 20/20, CNN, CNBC, The Today Show, The Insider, and Bloomberg TV frequently feature Ryan as a guest. He is also commonly cited in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Wall Street Journal China. Also, he routinely publishes essays on real estate, sales, and branding as a recognized contributor to Forbes. As the lead character on Bravo's "Million Dollar Listing New York," Ryan is best known.

About 8 million people watched their most recent property tour. Ryan, dubbed "the most exposed and powerful broker in the world," combines traditional market reach with a thriving social media presence with 2M followers across Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
