Jimmy Johnson rose quickly to success in real estate, earning the title Rookie of the Year his first year in the business. That's because his main focus has always been his clients.

Jimmy not only respects his clients’ needs, but knows how to translate them to find the perfect NYC home. “Nothing says who we are more than where we live. Our homes reflect our values, our personality, and our style; so it’s no wonder that buying or selling an apartment is often an emotional experience.” By empowering his clients with a deeper understanding of every step of the process, Jimmy makes his buyers and sellers feel comfortable and confident throughout the transaction. “One of the most rewarding parts of my job is helping clients think outside the box to see opportunities they may not have considered.  If I’m doing my job well, I can help my clients not only achieve their goals, but also feel good about the decisions they’ve made along the way.”

Whether you are a seller looking for top-dollar, a buyer looking for a new space that reflects your distinctive character, or an investor expanding your portfolio, Jimmy will help you articulate your goals and create a plan to achieve them. He thrives on making each customer feel valued and won’t be satisfied until he finds you a place you can call home. Jimmy’s clients appreciate his easygoing attitude, quick response time, and dedication to ensuring the outcome they deserve.  “I want my clients to find the perfect match in their new home. I work hard to make the experience stress-free, and sometimes people are surprised to discover that it can actually be fun!”

Jimmy came to New York City after graduating from Yale University with a degree in Theater Studies. He previously worked at well-known management consulting firm in Manhattan where he ran a national MBA campus recruiting program. His success helping candidates with the important task of finding the right career naturally led to helping clients with another of life's most rewarding journeys: finding the right home.

When not busy working, Jimmy likes to travel to visit friends and family across the country, or explore the newest restaurants and shops of his neighborhood in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.  Back home in New York, Jimmy is an active volunteer on the Recruitment & Governance Committee of the Stonewall Community Foundation.
