Michael Rossi Chief Executive Officer
Michael Rossi is the founder and managing broker of Elegran Real Estate. He started the company to reenvision New York’s outdated real estate brokerage industry to provide more transparency and better quality service to his clients.
Michael has worked tirelessly to fulfill his vision of creating Elegran’s technology-enabled, data-driven business model. This model incorporates state-of-the-art technology with in-house marketing professionals, allowing brokers to focus their time on clients rather than marketing and lead generation, which has allowed Elegran’s agents to grow their business three times faster than traditional firms.
Under Michael’s leadership, the company has built a sound reputation, establishing Elegran as a trusted and reliable brokerage in New York City. Elegran has built a strong working relationship with most major residential real estate developers in Manhattan, granting its agents access to significant new development projects. In addition, Michael’s connections in mortgage banking, legal, taxation, title provide endless resources and impeccable service to Elegran’s clients.
Michael has transacted over $3 billion in real estate over his career. Prior to Michael's entry into the real estate industry, he managed a trading desk for a boutique hedge fund and ran client service operations for a Wall Street brokerage firm with over $600 million in assets under his management. His clients have included major corporations, hedge funds, mutual funds, insurance companies, and high net worth individuals.
Michael is a native of Westchester County and currently resides in Bedford Village with his wife, his son, Solomon, and his daughter, Arabella. He attended the London School of Economics and has international real estate experience in the Caribbean, Costa Rica, and the United Kingdom.

Testimonials
Helped me buy a home or lot/land (2012) - Elisa C. I couldn't be more elated with my experience with Elegran. This was my second time working with an agent in NYC. Elegran went above and beyond my expectations and did so with such impeccable grace. While traveling the pressured situations and the convoluted paths of the real estate world, Elegran was able to navigate the turbulence without missing a step. - Jessica L. After searching for a home in New York after relocating for a new job - Elegran made my entire real estate experience so incredibly positive and easy. They were so informative, patient and kind. They made the search so easy that I was able to find the perfect place and location. I'm very grateful that with their experience and real estate knowledge of NYC they guided me to the right properties and a perfect New York City home. - Alicia L. I'd like to thank you for your professionalism and the great effort in searching our new home. I highly appreciate it, and will recommend your services to all my friends. In addition to your great knowledge of the market, you impressed me with your professionalism and ability to listen. Thank you! - Louisa K. Being a lifelong resident in New York, I wanted to find myself a nice apartment in Manhattan. After being introduced to Elegran, it was obvious they made their clients interests a priority. Throughout the tedious process of the showings and the negotiations, they kept me calm and always had my best interest at heart. They constantly kept me up to date with new listings and new developments. Even after the contracts were signed, they aided me with my needs for the move itself. I am lucky I was able to work with them and would recommend them to anyone that has real estate needs. - Stephane D. You were was absolutely fantastic and instrumental in finding us a new apartment. My husband and I aren't from NYC and only had a short time to find a place to live. You and your team were very organized, pulled together great options in our price range and set up all the appointments. You provided a great voice of reason when it came to making the final decision. - Sylvain L. You were very professional and trustworthy. You understood what I
was looking for completely and I found my dream building just for one day trip. He was good at organizing schedules. He answered the question in a second. - Henri P. I just want to say you were the best real estate person that we have met during this entire process. Your responsiveness was greatly appreciated. I will definitely pass your name onto any of my friends that are looking. - Leon L. I would like to thank you for your professionalism and enthusiasm at all times. We truly enjoyed working with you, as well, and we hope we will have more opportunities to continue our cooperation. - Rebecca R. We would highly recommend that any client work with him for trustful & professional advice. He is by far the most responsible and helpful realtor we have ever met. Working with him was a pleasure. - Meelis M. Most of my friends who have worked with brokers have had pretty unpleasant and stressful experiences. I went into the process anticipating the worst but it was nothing like I expected. There were multiple agents at Elegran working with me and they pretty much took care of everything. They listened to my concerns and didn't push me towards any decisions. In the end they helped me find a wonderful place. - Chloe A. Nothing but good things to say about Elegran. They helped me stay within my budget and it was a rather speedy process compared to my other experiences with brokers. - Quentin B. Our experience working with Elegran was excellent. They were prompt, accommodating and understanding. Even after the contracts were signed, they have aided us with our needs about the move itself and proved to be a one-stop shop for all of our needs during this process. - Liza D.
