Lucía Torres · 2026-04-10

Manhattan, we mean business. And we're thrilled to share some big news. The Agency has just been ranked 15th in Manhattan on The Real Deal's 2026 NYC Top Brokerage Ranking. This isn't our first rodeo, either. It marks our fourth straight year on this prestigious list, following our spots in 2025, 2024, and 2023. That's not just a win; it's a pattern of success. Let's talk about what this ranking really means. It's not just a popularity contest. The Real Deal's list is a serious benchmark, built on hard data. It's based on the total residential transaction volume from 2025. They pull numbers from New York City's official ACRIS database, then cross-check everything with MLS systems and brokerage sites. They leave no stone unturned. ### How The Real Deal Builds Its Rankings They looked at over 38,000 residential deals across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens. We're talking condos, co-ops, single-family homes, and 2–4 family properties. That's a massive dataset. It gives you a clear, unbiased picture of who's really moving the needle in this market. Being in the top 20 in Manhattan means you're competing with the absolute best. Juliet Clapp, our SVP and Managing Partner for the North East Coast, put it perfectly. She said, "Being recognized by The Real Deal for the fourth consecutive year is a true testament to the talent and tenacity of our New York team." She's right. Manhattan is one of the toughest markets on the planet. Every deal is a battle. Our agents don't just show up; they show out. "Manhattan is one of the most competitive markets in the world, and our agents have proven they are up for the challenge," Clapp added. "This ranking reflects their hard work — and the momentum we've built here only continues to grow." Think about our timeline for a second. We made our official East Coast debut in Manhattan just a few years ago, in 2023. Since then, we've moved fast and with real purpose. The results? They speak for themselves. Four appearances on this list, all landing us in the top 20. That tells you how much ground our team has covered in a relatively short time.  ### What This Ranking Means for Our Clients For our clients, this ranking is more than a trophy. It's a promise. It reinforces our commitment to delivering exceptional results, whether you're buying a classic co-op on the Upper East Side or selling a modern condo in Tribeca. As we keep expanding our New York footprint, this recognition fuels our drive. We're here to build relationships and close deals, not just make a splash. Here's a quick look at what got us here: - **Data-Driven Performance:** Our ranking is based on verified 2025 sales volume. - **Consistent Excellence:** Four consecutive years on the list shows sustained effort. - **Market Expertise:** We navigate condos, co-ops, and single-family homes across the boroughs. - **A Growing Team:** Our agents have the tenacity to thrive in a world-class market. So, what's next? We're not resting. This ranking is a fantastic milestone, but it's also a starting line. The New York real estate scene never sleeps, and neither do we. We're building on this momentum every single day, committed to being your trusted partner in one of the most exciting cities on earth.
