SERHANT. Celebrates Six-Month Anniversary with Substantial Growth

NEW YORK, April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- SERHANT., a multidimensional real estate brokerage that sits at the intersection of media, entertainment, education and technology, today reported it is consistently averaging $100 million in sales volume per month for its first six months of business. Founded in September 2020 by Ryan Serhant, seasoned real estate broker and star of Bravo's two-time Emmy-nominated Million Dollar Listing New York, the eponymous firm has since doubled in size, signed eight new development projects, and represented clients in record-breaking transactions, including the sale of a $132 million estate in Palm Beach, FL, a $33 million penthouse in Miami, FL, and a $22.5 million penthouse in New York City's SoHo neighborhood.

"Our sales activity is better than I ever could have anticipated and I'm so incredibly proud of our amazing team and all we have accomplished together in our first six months as a company," said Ryan Serhant, founder and CEO of SERHANT.  "Starting a business in the middle of a pandemic might seem counter-intuitive, but we were confident in what we built and that we were filling a need in creating the brokerage of the future; the marketplace is validating our vision." 

Exponential Growth and Industry Leadership

To accommodate its significant headcount growth, and its vision of creating a collaborative space for its agents and clients, the company has signed a 15,000-square-foot, four-story flagship in SoHo as its new NYC headquarters, to be known as "SERHANT. House New York."
