The power brokers behind sales for names including Jennifer Lawrence, Bella Hadid and Shawn Levy talk about a surge of high-end transactions in the reinvigorated city: “I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon.”<\/p>\n

In the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, New York City was hit first \u2014 and hardest. With the unfolding tragedy came a flood of residents suddenly looking for properties outside the city as well as anxious whispers that the city might never return to its former glory. The effect on NYC\u2019s real estate\u00a0market was severe: In the second quarter of 2020, Manhattan sales fell 54.1 percent, their steepest decline in 30 years, while prices dropped 17.7 percent, according to data from Douglas Elliman.<\/p>\n

But by the last few months of 2020, there was an upsurge in activity, and demand has only grown through 2021. \u201cIt\u2019s still the greatest city in the world, and everybody wants to be here,\u201d says Core NYC broker Emily Beare. Homes priced over $10 million in Manhattan recently had their best sales week in eight years, and both sales volume and prices continue to spike. \u201cNew York City has a resiliency that a lot of other markets don\u2019t have,\u201d says Pamela D\u2019Arc of Compass. \u201cWe\u2019re seeing exactly what we saw after other tragic events that have happened in the city, which is that people paused, and then the rebound was extraordinary.\u201d Here,\u00a0The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>\u00a0highlights the city\u2019s top agents who are inking marquee deals and helping A-list clients navigate the brisk, reinvigorated market. (Note: Client names that are included, unless otherwise noted, were all publicly reported transactions.)<\/p>\n

When it came time for hotelier Andr\u00e9 \u202fBalazs to sell his $10.3 \u202fmillion SoHo apartment, he turned to Douglas Elliman\u2019s Oren and Tal Alexander of\u00a0The Alexander Team<\/a>. The pair are known for breaking multiple SoHo price records and hold listings in trophy buildings from 432\u202fPark Ave. to 111 West 57th St. In 2021, New York City\u2019s market \u201chas been wild,\u201d says Tal, \u201cand I don\u2019t see it slowing down anytime soon.\u201d They also are licensed in Florida, where they have handled sales for Tommy\u202f Hilfiger and restaurateur Jeff \u202fZalaznick (Carbone).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Core NYC\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Core\u2019s\u00a0Emily Beare<\/a>\u00a0is consistently one of New York City\u2019s top agents, with more than $4\u202f billion in career sales. She also has become the broker of choice for designer Nate \u202fBerkus, whom she represented in the off-market sale of a $13.5 million West Village townhouse in August. Beare previously has worked with Diane Kruger and sold a SoHo property once owned by Kanye West. She currently holds a $35 \u202fmillion listing at tony condo building 15 Central Park West. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of good buyers out there and not enough inventory,\u201d says Beare. \u201cNot a day goes by that I don\u2019t get emails from brokers asking, \u2018What do you have for $20 or $30 \u202fmillion in the West Village?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
