Gala Troitskaya

Gala Troitskaya brings a rare blend of global perspective and refined taste to New York City real estate. Born and raised in Moscow, she moved to New York City over twenty years ago, settling in Manhattan, where she built her first career in high fashion, training at the Fashion Institute of Technology and styling private clients across the city’s most exclusive retail and fashion circles. That early grounding in aesthetics and personal presentation still shapes the way she works today, from the way she stages a listing to the way she reads exactly what a buyer is looking for, even when they haven’t quite put it into words themselves.

A certified yoga teacher for over a decade, Gala approaches every transaction with the same patience and clarity she brings to her practice, guiding clients calmly through even the most complex co-op board packages and negotiations. As a buyer’s agent at Compass working primarily in Manhattan, she handles the full journey of a purchase or rental, from the first search to closing, with the discretion and attention to detail her clients have come to expect.

Outside of work, Gala’s curiosity runs to art, interior design, and photography, along with an unapologetic devotion to New York’s food scene, though she’ll insist that last one is purely professional research.
