What Most NYC Real Estate Brokerages Won’t Tell You

The standard buyer’s broker collects 2.5–3% commission at closing and keeps all of it. The structure rewards transactions, not outcomes — and the buyer never sees the math.

BRN was built differently. We’re a private brokerage representing buyers exclusively — no seller listings, no dual agency — across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Hamptons. We return up to 1.5% of the purchase price to you at closing.

On a $5M home, that’s $75,000 returned at closing. Not a discount. Immediate equity.

The standard NYC real estate broker earns 2.5–3% at closing and keeps all of it. That’s always been the norm — but it doesn’t have to be yours.

BRN is a boutique Manhattan real estate brokerage serving buyers across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Hamptons. We provide the full expertise of an experienced, senior team — market analysis, precise negotiation, co-op board guidance — and return up to 1.5% of your purchase price to you at closing.

The Process

01 — Connect

A confidential conversation about what you’re looking for, your timeline, and how we work. If we’re the right fit on both sides, we move forward.

02 — We Go to Work

We identify the right properties, run the financials, and negotiate on your behalf — co-op board packages, building due diligence, deal structuring. You see the work; we handle the complexity.

03 — You Keep What’s Yours

At closing, up to 1.5% of the purchase price is returned to you — wired or credited against your closing costs, documented in full, entirely yours.

Not Your Typical New York Real Estate Brokers

Most brokerages are built for volume. We’re built for precision.

Most NYC brokerages run on volume — hundreds of agents, transactions divided across whoever’s next in the queue. BRN is a boutique firm built around partner-level attention. When you work with us, you work directly with senior partners — from first call to closing.

Our partners bring together backgrounds in finance, law, and real estate development. In New York, the details matter: building financials, board dynamics, pricing history, negotiation leverage, and where value still exists in a market that rarely makes it easy to find.

We extended our practice to the East End to serve clients purchasing in both markets — or making their first move outside the city.

The same senior team. The same standards. The same return at closing.

What Our Clients Say About Working With Us

“From the first call to closing day, we worked directly with the partners — financial analysis, building due diligence, negotiation. The $62,000 returned at closing was real money. The work that led up to it was the reason we’d hire them again.”
