Manhattan, NY Rosewood Realty Group closed $2.2 billion in total multifamily deals for 2022.
While pre-pandemic Rosewood’s sales were heavily New York City centric, Rosewood’s founder and CEO Aaron Jungreis led his company in early 2020 to pivot and create a national investment sales division led by Jonathan Brody that has sourced and closed deals across the southeast, northeast and beyond.
Outside New York, Brody and his team have more than tripled total national sales from $400 million in 2020 to $1.45 billion in 2021. In 2022 they closed over $1.3 billion in national sales.
