"From the minute my daughter and I met Ryan and Jason, we were impressed with their great energy and appearance. After many unsuccessful interviews with other agents we felt very confident and comfortable about selecting Ryan and Jason to represent our co-op. The sale process was swift and painless besides the fact that we received two full-price offers right out of the gate. They handled the board package and building staff with ease, and their experience in the building was just one of the many reasons we felt they were the perfect team. We thank them so much for making this entire process smooth and easy for our family in a difficult time and we certainly made the right choice." - Ruth
"This past August I was on the apartment hunt as I wanted to relocate back to Manhattan after retiring from a 30-year teaching career. I reached out to Ryan Garson from a referral of a friend of mine and 15 minutes later, I got a call. Ryan was calling from a hospital room while waiting for the birth of his first child. How exciting! Two months later, I have my new home because of his great efforts and constant assistance. He helped me, a new homeowner, with the bidding process in which there were other competitive offers. Ryan provided me information comparing the values of other apartments in the building and comparable apartments in the area. This enabled me to decide on an offer that prevailed. Then the work began! Ryan gathered and properly presented the necessary information for the board package. All of this was accomplished under a tight time frame. With the birth of Ryan's daughter and my gaining a new home, I feel we are both blessed. I can truly recommend Ryan Garson as an outstanding real estate broker" - Melanie
"I wholeheartedly recommend Ryan Garson. He walked us through a very difficult process and gave us great advice to maximize value for our apartment. Although the deal and the buyers were challenging for a variety of reasons, Ryan never flinched and was with us every step of the way to make sure the deal didn't fall through. He was personable, intelligent, well-informed, and savvy about the state of the market. I have never dealt with a better broker." - Burt
"Ryan Garson was instrumental in helping us find our forever home. As first-time buyers, we were nervous and unsure how to navigate the complex New York real estate market. Ryan immediately made us feel at ease and not only helped us narrow our search and hone in on exactly what we were looking for, but he was extremely patient and talked us through the entire process. With a baby on the way and a dog we adore, it was important for us to find a place where we could see ourselves raising a family and Ryan made us feel confident in our decision. Now that we have settled into our new place we couldn't be happier!" - Rachel and Brian
"Ryan and team were absolutely great to work with. They hustled from the very beginning, worked diligently to come up with creative ideas to market the apartment, and were extremely professional and responsive throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend them." - Jordan and Mara
Ryan Garson has built his career around one idea: the most powerful opportunities rarely exist in isolation. They come from an ecosystem of relationships, ideas, visibility, community, and trust.
At the center of Ryan’s ecosystem is New York City real estate. With more than $750M in closed sales and 1,000+ transactions, Ryan leads The Garson Team at Compass, where he and his full-time marketing and operations team advise buyers and sellers across the city. His approach goes beyond the individual transaction, using every listing, relationship, piece of content, and connection as an opportunity to create lasting value for his clients and network.
Around that real estate business, Ryan has built an expanding collection of platforms that all connect back to the same mission.
He founded Very Social to bring the power of content, storytelling, and personal brand building into real estate. He wrote The Very Social Broker to share the strategies that helped shape his own business, followed by The AI Agent, exploring how real estate professionals can use artificial intelligence to work smarter, communicate better, and build stronger businesses.
His work in media has grown from New York, No Matter Where into New Yorkers to Know, a platform dedicated to conversations with the people shaping the city and making an impact within their communities. For Ryan, the podcast is another extension of what he has always done naturally: connect people, share stories, and build community.
That philosophy also informs his work as a Certified Senior Advisor and co-founder of Compass Plus, a nationwide initiative helping older adults and their families navigate major life and real estate transitions with greater support and dignity.
But the ecosystem is personal, too. Ryan lives on the Upper West Side with his wife, an ER doctor, and their daughter, a student at Ethical Culture. His experience as a husband, father, neighbor, and lifelong believer in New York informs the way he thinks about homes and the people who live in them.
Real estate. Very Social. The Very Social Broker. The AI Agent. New York, No Matter Where. New Yorkers to Know. Family. Community. New York City.
They are not separate projects. They are different parts of the same ecosystem Ryan has spent his career building, one designed to create connections, open doors, and turn one opportunity into the next.
