Alexander Bogod
 Luxury Real Estate Advisor 
Broadway Realty

“Alexander delivers results with professionalism and integrity. He handles complex deals with ease and is a trusted leader and team player.” - Mrs. Itskov , President, I and I pUblishing. 

Recent goal and impact: 

We recently rented a 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath, 3,078 s/f residence on the Upper East Side. This luxury property required a targeted marketing strategy and a deep understanding of the high-end rental market. Successfully closing the deal strengthened our relationship with the owner, who has since referred new clients. It also reinforced our firm’s reputation for executing complex, high-value transactions with precision and professionalism in a competitive market

Giving Back: 

I enjoy going to networking events and meeting both new and seasoned professional. This reminded me of the value of community and knowledge exchange in our industry. It is especially impactful to connect with emerging agents, offering guidance and encouragement, and reinforcing my own commitment to continuous learning and professional growth through industry involvement.

Best books, podcasts, or apps for aspiring leaders: 

My Life & 1,000 Houses: Failing Forward to Financial Freedom by Mitch Stephen.

Best advice for new leaders:

Listen more than you speak; lead by consistent example.

Turning problems into opportunities.

A luxury listing sat vacant due to poor visibility and pricing. We saw an opportunity to relaunch it with premium photography and virtual staging, helping potential tenants visualize the space while it was still empty. Combined with a strategic price adjustment and outreach to our network, we quickly secured a qualified tenant. This turned a stagnant listing into a success story and reinforced our firm’s value in maximizing property exposure and results.

Sharing knowledge and expertise: 

I actively share my knowledge through mentorship, collaborative deal reviews, and by being a go-to resource for market insights within the firm. I regularly discuss trends, pricing strategies, and client management techniques with colleagues, helping them navigate complex transactions. By openly sharing experiences and best practices, I contribute to a culture of learning and continuous improvement that benefits the entire team.

Who was/is your role model and/or leadership mentor?

My father — led with integrity, and quiet strength.
