Founded by Mike Barit, KOTA is a dynamic real estate team at Compass that brings a personalized, high-performance approach to New York City real estate. Built on the principles of integrity, precision, and authentic connection, KOTA combines deep market expertise with a commitment to delivering exceptional service at every step of the buying, selling, or renting journey.

With a sharp eye for strategy and a passion for people, the team prides itself on being more than just advisors — they’re trusted partners who treat clients like family. Whether navigating a first purchase, listing a legacy property, or finding the perfect pied-à-terre, KOTA’s clients can count on clear communication, thoughtful guidance, and a results-driven mindset.

Rooted in a culture of collaboration and hustle, KOTA is as much about relationships as it is about real estate. Every transaction is handled with care, every detail managed with purpose, and every client supported with the same energy and respect they’d give their own.
