New York City Real Estate
Socrates Gomez guides buyers and sellers across Manhattan and Brooklyn with patience, honest advice, and neighborhood knowledge earned from living here himself.
Socrates Gomez is a New York-based Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker and creative leader, known for his thoughtful guidance, strategic mindset, and results-driven approach. A trusted advocate for his clients, he combines data-backed market insight with a deep understanding of New York City's ever-changing landscape to help buyers, sellers, and investors make confident, informed decisions.
After several successful years at Douglas Elliman and SERHANT, Socrates joined forces with R New York in 2025, where he continues to deliver the personalized attention, transparency, and professionalism his clients value most. His philosophy is simple: real estate is not just about the property, it's about people, goals, and creating clarity in what can often feel like a complex process.
Before real estate, Socrates spent over two decades as a Creative Director leading national and international branding, marketing, and publishing projects. This background gives him a distinctive edge, from positioning listings and crafting marketing narratives to understanding the emotional and aesthetic nuances that drive value.
Specializing in co-ops, condos across Manhattan and Brooklyn, Socrates brings a meticulous eye for detail, sensitivity to deadlines, and an unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for his clients.
Born in the Dominican Republic and a New Yorker since 1989, Socrates is a graduate of Parsons School of Design and earned his real estate license from the NYU Schack Institute of Real Estate. He is a homeowner in the Lower East Side, where he lives with his wife and two young children, his greatest inspiration and daily reminder of why “home” matters.
