If you’ve seen Ryan Serhant’s schedule, you know that the grind never stops. And now, he’s only getting busier with the return of Owning Manhattan. The series, following the powerhouse business mogul and his brokerage SERHANT. in the high-stakes world of New York City real estate, will be back for Season 2. “To be honest, it’s overwhelming,” Serhant tells Tudum about the response to Season 1. “Expectations were so high for the fans, and I knew we were going to give them something unexpected. Owning Manhattan is so original, and unlike any other show on the air, and to see people fall in love with it on such a global scale is so insane.” Since you last saw Serhant and his elite army of agents, the brokerage has only grown, expanding now to eight states and nearly 700 agents. “Tensions are high. Competition is fierce. Inventory is low everywhere, which means there are not enough homes for our buyers, let alone our agents,” Serhant adds. “So it’s all-out real estate warfare right now, with a lot of pressure on me as CEO to lead us in the right direction.” As for what fans can expect for Season 2, Serhant has a gentle warning: “I’m giving everyone a heads up to invest in a couch with a seatbelt. Turbulence is coming.” The intensity, he says, builds upon the final moments of the season finale, in which Serhant was offered the opportunity to sell an entire building of units worth more than $300 million. “Remember how you felt in the last few minutes of the surprise Season 1 finale? That’s what you’ll feel for the entirety of Season 2,” he says. Check back here for more details as we get closer to the launch of Owning Manhattan Season 2.

Gatsby-esque mansions, country clubs and equestrian pursuits in the shadow of the Empire State Building? This is the atmosphere in Old Westbury, N.Y., a village of just over 5,000 people on Long Island’s North Shore roughly 25 miles east of Midtown Manhattan. It is part of the Gold Coast, an approximately 30-mile North Shore stretch where, from the 1890s into the early 20th Century, wealthy families built lavish manors, even on 100 acres or more. Here, they enjoyed lifestyle pursuits—polo playing, gardening, entertaining. Today, most of Old Westbury’s historic estates have been subdivided, but the lure of greener grass remains. “Old Westbury has always been a popular place to live, but with young people wanting to leave the city for more of a country club setting, we are seeing renewed interest,” says Lois Kirschenbaum, a Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty associate real-estate broker.
