The highly competitive realm of New York City real estate has returned with the much-anticipated second season of “Owning Manhattan.” Led by the ambitious and determined Ryan Serhant, this new chapter promises record-breaking deals, intense rivalries, and potential fallout among friends. The latest eight-episode season is now available for streaming, picking up where the previous season left off, with Serhant aggressively pursuing high-profile listings, including a brand-new Billionaires’ Row tower. However, the question looms: who will earn his trust to handle these coveted listings?
In this season, Serhant emphasizes the expansion of his empire, hinting that his ambitions go beyond the bustling streets of New York City. “It’s not just New York City this season,” he stated in an interview. The team even ventures to Miami, where they vie for new listings such as the eye-catching Mercedes-Benz residences. This trip reignites fierce competition, echoing past conflicts among the agents as they strive for coveted multimillion-dollar contracts.
Ryan Serhant has made a name for himself as the CEO of his brokerage, SERHANT., boasting an impressive track record of over $10 billion in sales. He is renowned for closing some of the most jaw-dropping deals in the nation, including the record-breaking sale of a Florida home for nearly $140 million. Since launching SERHANT. in September 2020, the brokerage has expanded into eight states and garnered a staggering 8 million social media followers, highlighting its significant reach.
The cast of agents this season includes a diverse range of talented individuals, each with unique backgrounds and specialties.

Known for her ability to charm clients with her musical talents, Chloe’s return from maternity leave has seen her continue to push the envelope with record-breaking luxury sales. The dynamics with her close friend Jade Shenker remain uncertain as they navigate the romantic and professional complexities of their past.
Jade Shenker is no stranger to success, being recognized as a Top 30 Under 30 real estate disruptor. With a formidable background in commercial real estate, she has managed significant portfolios and is poised to demonstrate her resilience this season following a challenging personal chapter.
