Patty LaRocco Joins Compass from Douglas Elliman
Compass, Inc. announces that Patty LaRocco, formerly with Douglas Elliman, has joined Compass. With over $3 billion in New York City real estate sales, Patty ranks among Real Trends’ top 1% of real estate professionals nationwide. Her team, The Patty LaRocco Team, has also earned recognition as one of the most successful teams by The Wall Street Journal. While at Douglas Elliman, Patty was honored for her work in New Development, ranking as 2023’s #6 broker with The Real Deal, and The Real Deal’s #5 Residential Brooklyn Broker. She has served as the lead broker on several high-profile developments, including 462 Greenwich, One Prospect Park West, 160 Imlay Street, the King & Sullivan Townhomes, 362 Van Brunt, and 505 West 43rd Street.
“I’m grateful for my time at Douglas Elliman and the support I received there,” said LaRocco. “However, I felt it was time for a new chapter. I’m excited to connect with a fresh network of friends and support moving forward.”
A lifelong New Yorker, LaRocco specializes in a wide range of neighborhoods, from the Upper West Side and Park Slope to TriBeCa, where she lived for many years. Early in her career, she set a record in 2014 for the highest sale price per square foot on the Upper East Side. With her extensive knowledge and experience across the city, LaRocco has established herself as a trusted broker for discerning buyers.
LaRocco's clientele includes a diverse mix, including financiers, high-profile celebrities, and other influential individuals. Notably, LaRocco previously represented Weber Soros, the ex-wife of billionaire George Soros, in selling her Upper East Side townhouse for $31 million. She also facilitated the sale of one of the most expensive condos in Park Slope, which closed for $6.95 million in 2021.
“With her city-wide business experience and distinctive approach to business, we’re thrilled to welcome Patty into our community and help her grow even further,” said Compass Tristate Vice President Gordon Golub. “With initiatives like Compass' 3-phase marketing, she’ll be able to provide her clients with more options, all while tapping further into the Compass network.”
Drawing on her background in art, film, and television, along with her experience as a former multimedia company owner, LaRocco has authentically propelled her business. She attributes much of her success to word-of-mouth referrals, rather than relying on aggressive marketing. She believes in letting clients choose her, rather than chasing business, and values building long-term partnerships through genuine connections. The Patty LaRocco Team will be joining Compass with two existing team members with the hope of expanding.
