Brown Harris Stevens is proud to welcome Raphael De Niro and the eight-person De Niro Team to the firm, marking an exciting new chapter for one of New York City’s most respected names in luxury real estate.
With more than two decades of experience in the industry, Raphael De Niro has built a reputation synonymous with excellence, discretion, and results. After beginning his career at Douglas Elliman, where he spent over 20 years, De Niro founded The De Niro Team in 2004. Since then, the team has represented more than $5.2 billion in sales, consistently ranking among the top-producing real estate teams in the country.
“I felt it was time to take my business in a new and different direction,” said De Niro. “I will always be grateful for the foundation Douglas Elliman has given me and the unwavering support that helped my team achieve outstanding outcomes for our clients. I look forward to building upon that success in my next chapter at Brown Harris Stevens.”
The De Niro Team brings deep expertise across both luxury resales and new development consulting. Their impressive portfolio includes some of New York City’s most notable residential projects, such as 108 Leonard, 111 Murray, 150 Charles, The Puck Penthouses, and 27 Wooster—developments that have helped redefine the luxury landscape in Manhattan.
Beyond sales performance, De Niro is widely respected for his leadership and commitment to ethical standards within the industry. He is a Founding Board Member of the New York Residential Agent Continuum (NYRAC), an organization dedicated to advancing transparency, professionalism, and consumer-first practices across residential real estate.
“Raphael and his team bring a remarkable track record of excellence in luxury real estate,” said Bess Freedman, CEO of Brown Harris Stevens. “Their reputation, integrity, and expertise in both new development and resales across the city make them an exceptional addition to our firm.”
Welcome to Brown Harris Stevens, Raphael and team!
