The James Morgan Team

Consistently ranked among the top 100 real estate teams in New York by Wall Street Journal Real Trends, the James Morgan Team serves a diverse clientele of developers, investors, buyers and sellers. With a combined experience of over 50 years in the business, the team has engaged in over $750 million in transactions, at all price points, across Manhattan and Brooklyn. Our disparate educational, professional, and cultural backgrounds translate to a rare expertise across analytics, negotiation, and marketing. Yet we all share the same ethos – delivering custom-tailored advice, founded on a genuine and personal engagement with every client.

Team leader James Morgan is a real estate veteran, a full-service broker with a profound grasp of the NYC market and deep industry relationships – spanning his own network and Compass offices from California to Miami. He’s advised a globe-spanning client list, from developers to private resale buyers and sellers. Brandon Cohen, a senior team member with 10 years of experience, prides himself on the organic growth of his business through referrals from satisfied clients. Carolina Chia, a current Brooklynite and former globe-trotting marketing exec, has substantial knowledge of new developments and often helps foreign clientele navigate New York’s neighborhoods and unique property types. Susan Greene’s legal background means she instinctively acts as a strong advocate for clients, while valuing the importance of every detail. Elliot Brietta brings a strong mix of attentive diligence and creative ideation to his roles as both the team Operations Manager and a Licensed Real Estate Salesperson. He uses these skills to help guide transactions to a smooth and positive result, while striving to deliver top level attention and service to the team's clients.

As a team, we consider our reputation for unparalleled service – based on attentive listening – to be the heart and soul of our business. We know first-hand what it means to meet and exceed the specific expectations of all sorts of clients: Growing families looking to upsize, empty-nesters looking to downsize, investors seeking the right feel and fit. And because we work at Compass, we also have trusted partners to meet your real estate needs across the country – including the Hamptons, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami.
