The only other two firms to reach more than $1 billion in sealed deals were Brown Harris Stevens ($1.89 billion) and Halstead Property ($1.21 billion). Brown Harris Stevens closed on some of the priciest sales of the year, including Edgar Bronfman’s co-op at 960 Fifth Avenue to Egyptian billionaire Nassef Sawiris for $70 million.
