When it comes to New York City’s top real estate brokers, it’s difficult to pinpoint the most valuable characteristic. It helps to know the market. It helps to be visionary—and positive. It helps to be likeable, a keen listener, and a masterful negotiator.

With Josh Doyle, it all comes down to instinct. For fourteen years, Josh has sharpened his instincts by gaining a surprisingly vast breadth of experience. His repertoire includes new development condominiums, sprawling downtown prewar lofts, luxury condominium rentals, 5th Avenue co-operatives, single family townhouses…even raw land. It’s made it easy for him to see the intrinsic value of property—and know, instinctively, how to do his job.

Josh grew up around real estate (his father is a broker and investor). After a brief stint at an advertising agency, Josh dove into real estate, first at an independent agency, then as co-founder of his own real estate company. The company quickly grew to ten agents (and later 40), with Josh as general partner. In 2007, he joined Corcoran’s SoHo office after selling his company. After one year with Corcoran, he was recruited as partner on a top-producing team where he worked for several years and was awarded 2011’s “SoHo Broker of the Year.”  In early 2015, he made an exciting move to Compass, an emerging brokerage and technology leader in the New York City market. Last year, he and the newly formed Gavin/Doyle Team closed over $100 million in real estate transactions.

Josh and the members of his team have historically ranked within the top 100 agents of 54,000 NRT agents nationally, making them a highly sought-after perspective on the market. Peers, landlords, tenants, homeowners, purchasers, developers, and investors all seek Josh’s unique ability to humanize and simplify complex real estate market evaluation.

Josh’s instincts have evolved, and so has his vision. He remains keenly interested in residential real estate, but he is also expanding his gaze toward residential development and commercial investments. Josh relishes working with high net worth individuals and institutional investors, knowing at the end of the day that he has added value and enhanced their return.
