Howard Hanna is proud to welcome Elegran Real Estate, a respective Manhattan-based brokerage, into our family. This strategic acquisition brings Howard Hanna to the heart of New York City—strengthening our position as the No. 1 brokerage in New York State and extending your reach into one of the most dynamic markets in the world.

Over the past decade, our presence in New York has grown exponentially. Since entering the market in 2025, Howard Hanna has become the state's largest brokerage in homes sold in less than a decade. This move empowers consumers to work with one brokerage seamlessly connecting New York City with the entire Tri-State region.

When Michael Rossi founded Elegran in 2008, he set out to build what New York real estate was missing: a boutique, entrepreneurial firm where agents could thrive. 

The result was a collaborative culture that empowered agents to scale faster and serve clients better than at traditional firms. 

Michael also understood that for his agents to thrive, they would need the resources, scale, and reach of a national platform. 

That search led him to Howard Hanna. Privately owned for three generations, Howard Hanna brings national scale, international reach, and a reputation as one of the most respected names in American real estate. At its core Elegran shares Howard Hanna entrepreneurial DNA, an agent-first culture that empowers agents.
