About Brett McDermott

Meet Brett McDermott

A successful real estate agent in New York City since 2013, Brett McDermott achieved top ranking at his previous brokerage firm and continues to exceed expectations at Elegran. Having helped hundreds of people buy, sell and rent homes, he has built his foundation and philosophy on making each client’s needs a priority, and forming lasting relationships based on respect and trust.

“It is my honor and privilege to serve you,” Brett says. “I know that my clients are relying on me to advise them on one of the most important financial investments and personal voyages of their life, and I do not take that lightly. My greatest reward is their satisfaction, their ongoing business, and their referrals to friends, family and coworkers that attest to a job well done.”

Client after client walks away from their real estate experience feeling “beyond impressed with Brett.” His professionalism, responsiveness, dependability, preparedness, and market knowledge are among the many reasons why they’d never work with another agent. He always works with his client’s absolute best interest in mind, doing so with outstanding integrity that sets him apart.


Brett specializes in sales across NYC, with a primary focus downtown. He ventured into real estate with a background in the fast-paced, demanding film industry, honing his eye for detail and hard-work ethic. This New Jersey native grew up with a passion for NYC, where he still loves to work and play. Brett has lived in Hoboken and currently resides in Jersey City, just across the Hudson.

Dedicated to serving others, Brett is also a personal development coach and trainer. His other interests include hiking, golfing, reading and learning about philosophy, business, leadership, personal development and other inspiring topics.
