About Zachary
Having lived in Manhattan for more than two decades, Zachary Messenger brings a seasoned eye and a creative background to New York real estate. As a former resident of Union Square, Chelsea, the Upper East Side, and now Hell’s Kitchen, he offers firsthand knowledge of the city’s diverse neighborhoods and approaches each client’s goals with care and intention. For Zachary, real estate isn’t simply transactional—it’s about helping people find homes that reflect who they are and how they want to live.
Before entering real estate, Zachary spent over 15 years in women’s footwear design and production, leading private-label collections for notable national brands. That experience sharpened his ability to identify potential, communicate a vision, and problem-solve creatively—skills that now elevate the way he markets listings and guides buyers in imagining what a home could become. His design sensibility and attention to detail distinguish him in a highly competitive market.
Clients appreciate Zachary’s driven yet empathetic approach. He helps them explore possibilities—from staging and layout to renovation ideas—while keeping their priorities front and center. Drawn to Compass for its culture of integrity and excellence, he is proud to work with a brokerage that aligns with his values.
When he’s not working with clients, Zachary is usually out discovering new corners of the city, visiting galleries and museum exhibits, creating his own art, or staying active through regular exercise.
