'Million Dollar Listing New York' Full Cast List: Meet Ryan Serhant, Kirsten Jordan, Steve Gold and the rest of the realtors
The pandemic altered life as we know it. It impacted several industries, and real estate was one of them. With millions putting a brake on owning their dream homes, the property prices saw a sharp dip.
While most of us could handle these tweaks, the agents on 'Million Dollar Listing New York' had quite the challenge on their plate. "At the epicenter of the COVID-19 crisis and facing looming uncertainties, the city is completely flipped upside down. The agents must work together to strategize their listings as city dwellers flee to more scenic locations and listing prices dramatically drop," the press release read. The question now is: Will they be able to strike a balance and work as a team? Only time will tell.

Ryan Serhant
He has his hands full given that he recently opened his brokerage - SERHANT. Ryan does what he loves and that keeps him busy but he also takes time out to spend time with his wife Emilia Bechrakis and daughter Zena. Even though parenting is a full-time job, they take a break every once in a while to finish upgrading their dream home in Brooklyn.
In October 2020, Ryan told Bravo: "It's almost done. I would say two, three months away. Then we gotta kind of design it and get it all ready." As of 2021, the $7.6 million property continues to be under renovation.
Fredrik Eklund
Fredrik's move to Los Angeles was met with a lot of friction and criticism. It had reached a point where he felt out of place but was soon able to figure it all out. "Professionally, the move to LA was a little more difficult at the start. I felt like a salty Swedish fish out of water," he explained in his Instagram post and added: "I realize now just how much I used to identify myself with being the top dog in NYC and having to start over more or less in LA." However, with time, professional life has gotten better and he is adjusting well to the bi-coastal life. Let's hope, we see glimpses of how he manages work and family life this season.
Steve Gold
A luxury broker from The Corcoran Group, Steve first had an enviable career in fashion. He worked with some of the storied designers the world has seen including Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, and Giorgio Armani. He modeled for high-end"Always hungry for a challenge, Gold decided to move on from fashion and go big into real estate," his Bravo bio read and added: "Whether working with a first-time buyer or an A-list celebrity, he prides himself on making the real estate transaction process as seamless and efficient as possible for his clients." Steve is originally from Stamford, Connecticut, and an avid sportsman who spent his growing up years sailboat racing with his father. In his spare time, he enjoys a good game of ice hockey, boxing, skiing, and surfing in his spare time.
Tyler Whitman
Unlike Steve, Tyler has always been a part of the real estate industry. His interest in the profession grew when he had a less than ideal experience with a broker when he first arrived in the city. He knew immediately that finding people their dream homes would be a task he'd be committed to for life. Currently, he works at Triplemint, a start-up real estate firm. Since he's part of the founding team, it was easy for him to share his approach towards buying and selling properties.
Kirsten Jordan
She may be the first woman to be a part of the 'Million Dollar Listing' franchise but comes with over a decade of experience in real estate. "Kirsten Jordan has brokered over half a billion dollars in sales for Fortune 500 executives, Oscar-winning actors, and mega-influencers with millions of followers," her Bravo bio revealed. In addition to this, she has sold out three new developments in NYC, which were worth $100M. Kristen is a full-time mother of three, who does a bit of blogging and is interested in social media. In her blog, she shares tips and tricks that would help aspiring brokers to make it big in the industry.
