Brian Shea

From Summit, New Jersey, Brian is a proud graduate of Wake Forest University, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in Communications and Marketing. With a natural passion for connecting with others and a strong foundation in strategic thinking, real estate quickly became the perfect next step. Brian began his journey with Next Step Realty as an intern, where he immersed himself in the fast-paced world of New York City real estate. During this time, he gained valuable hands-on experience working alongside top-performing agents, supporting clients through every step of the rental and relocation process. His time as an intern not only sharpened his knowledge of NYC’s unique neighborhoods and housing market but also solidified his commitment to delivering an exceptional client experience. Known for his easygoing demeanor, sharp communication skills, and people-first mindset, Brian is dedicated to making every client feel confident, informed, and excited about their next chapter in the city. Outside of real estate, Brian is a die-hard football fan, an enthusiastic home cook, and a firm believer that there’s no such thing as too many new connections. Eager to help others navigate the city he loves, Brian brings energy, warmth, and a personal touch to every search.
