We believe everyone deserves the exceptional.

It's more than a tagline. It's the standard behind every decision we make.

The company operates under two distinct banners: William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York's Hudson Valley, and Julia B. Fee Sotheby's International Realty in Westchester County, New York. Together, the firm maintains 30 offices with more than 1,100 real estate advisors and $6 billion in annual sales volume.

As a top-30 residential brokerage and the third-largest Sotheby's International Realty affiliate globally, the firm combines deep local market expertise with an unmatched international platform, connecting clients to the most discerning buyers and sellers worldwide.

Founded in 1949, the company has grown through six acquisitions and decades of organic expansion into one of the largest residential real estate firms by volume in the United States. At peak volume, the firm reached $7 billion in annual sales, a trajectory driven by disciplined operations, strategic M&A integration, and a commitment to technology as an operational advantage.
