When Andrew Shell founded A.N. Shell Real Estate in 1999, he had a vision for the way real estate should be handled: Anticipate and respond to the real estate needs of buyers and sellers. What he didn’t know is that he would also significantly change the way real estate is practiced. This began with two-agent office in the Manhattan neighborhood of Inwood. The company has grown exponentially each year since, setting the benchmark for the practice of real estate citywide.
A.N. Shell pioneered an aggressive commission structure, offers unique agent benefits and was the first to have a searchable database of homes on its Web site.
Because of these innovations and paradigm shifts, A.N. Shell Realty Group has grown to become the leading real estate brokerage and management firm (visit our website www.anshellmanagement.com) in the Northern Manhattan and in the Bronx, building on its commitments to professionalism, integrity and service to the communities of which it is a part. During the past nine years, A.N. Shell Realty Group has grown to include two offices in Manhattan (4971 Broadway and 723 Saint Nicholas Avenue) and 39 sales agents serving communities in Manhattan: Inwood, Washington Heights, Hudson Heights, Harlem and in the Bronx.

Hire the best people. Give them the best tools. Create a professional approach.

This founding philosophy of A.N. Shell Realty Group has been implemented through the introduction of new programs that have set industry standards which have given agents the knowledge they need to meet the needs of buyers and sellers.

The Best People

A.N. Shell Realty Group’s sales force is the company’s greatest asset. A.N. Shell Realty Group's associates include experts in all areas of real estate. While residential real estate is the mainstay of its business, A.N. Shell Realty Group also has associates who specialize in new construction, commercial real estate, relocation and property management. To further facilitate the home buying process, A.N. Shell Realty Group has affiliated resources to provide mortgage, title and escrow services.

The BestTools

A.N. Shell Realty Group's structure allows offices to operate independently while retaining the benefits of being associated with a respected brand–benefits such as advertising buying power, agent benefits and powerful technology tools. At the same time, agents are intimately familiar with their local communities, allowing them to provide knowledgeable and high-caliber real estate services tailored to the client’s needs.

As part of the A.N. Shell Realty Group network, agents may also take advantage of a variety of programs and innovative services including technology, marketing and education that they can put to work in their local market. These innovative tools allow them to serve home buyers and home sellers in a way that is unique to A.N. Shell Realty Group.
