Scott Harris
Scott Harris has taken this insight to heart from a young age. As a short, chubby kid who shopped in the “husky” section of the department store, he soon found a place as a stubby, scrappy running back on his high school football team, and found his leadership style: Being an inspirational presence- A Cheerleader.
His inspirational adventures continued, and do so today. Non-stop touring as a professional singer in his 20’s and work on the business side of the music business in Boston led him to New York City. In 2002, Scott founded the Harris Residential Team.
Over two decades later, Scott Harris has been involved in the marketing and sales of nearly $1 Billion in New York City residential property transactions. Scott has been recognized among the top 250 agents in the nation, in sales volume, by the WSJ/Real Trends Top 1000 list.
Over the years, as a singer, runner, writer, father, tour guide, creative thinker, football captain, team leader, and so much more, Scott life’s work has been to provide inspirational leadership through life’s challenges. He’s been honored to lead thousands of people into their dream homes.
As an entrepreneur, Scott has built a number of business, both for-profit and philanthropic. By focusing on everything from team-building and leadership, to the spread of ideas and the dynamic world in which they grow, Scott has been able to motivate and inspire countless people in New York City and beyond.
Scott is completing his book, “Finding Home,” set to be released in 2022. He lives with his wife and their three children on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
