By the Numbers: Here’s how NYC’s top residential agents, teams fared in 2025
For the Big Apple’s housing market, 2025 was a banner year.
Home sales were seemingly little affected — especially on the luxury front — by the economic uncertainty and mayoral race that marked much of last year. Sales volumes and deal counts were up on both the resale and new development sides of the market, according to an analysis of city sale records by The Real Deal.
On the new development front, the top 50 agents and teams that focused on the sales of newly built homes took in nearly $6.7 billion of deals across 1,987 sales. That was up from $5.2 billion in 2024, across 1,647 deals.
On the resale side, there were 1,594 deals in 2025, up from 1,262 the year before. Total deal volume last year came in at $5.7 million, an increase from nearly $4.6 billion in 2024.
