Samuel Gogolak

Honest. Reliable. Trustworthy. Knowledgeable. These are the words that Sam’s buyers and sellers consistently include in their five-star testimonials about his work. His steadfast commitment to his clients can’t be understated. The son of a refugee-turned-NFL football star and an M.I.T.-trained computer consultant, Sam grew up inspired by his parents' passion for and commitment to hard work and achieving the unthinkable. He goes above and beyond. He wouldn’t have it any other way. Sam brings to Compass expertise in working with first-time buyers and sellers in Brooklyn and Downtown Manhattan -- his home for over 15 years. Prior to joining Compass, Sam achieved rising star status in just 2.5 years at his previous brokerage as a member of Corcoran’s prestigious Multi-Million Dollar Club and most recently an NRT Top 1,000 agent nationwide. As a former teacher, he brings a calm disposition and genuine enthusiasm to educating buyers so that they feel empowered to make sound decisions. Equal parts creative and analytical, Sam’s imagination and sound reasoning deliver superior home marketing strategies. Upon joining Compass, 75% of his sold listings closed at or above the asking price! He couldn’t be more excited to join Compass, put its innovative marketing and data tools to work, and continue to build a network of happy clients and neighbors. If you haven’t met Sam at an open house, then perhaps you’ve seen him around town with his camera, at the US Open passionately cheering for his favorite tennis players, or out indulging in live music at some of the city’s more intimate theaters and performing spaces. When he can't convince his family to visit The Big Apple, he makes time to pay them visits in Boston, MA, Northeast Harbor, ME and Naples, FL. And when he’s seeking new frontiers, he enjoys an adventure along an international coastline, most recently 5 countries in 20 days in Scandinavia!
