Corey Cohen.
As Principal of The Roebling Team at Compass, Corey advises buyers and sellers across New York City on high-value residential and mixed-use transactions, with a focus on pricing, negotiation, and complex deal execution.
With over 13 years in the New York market, his work is grounded in valuation. He helps clients interpret pricing in a market where comparable sales, condition, and timing often diverge — framing each opportunity relative to prior cycles and current demand.
Within Compass’ platform, the team operates with a focused, boutique structure — allowing for a more deliberate approach to how each asset is positioned, presented, and brought to market. This balance enables institutional-level reach without losing the flexibility required to tailor strategy to the specifics of a property and its buyer pool.
Compass’ platform supports this process through real-time market data, dynamic pricing analysis, and targeted distribution — allowing buyers to track opportunities before they fully surface, and sellers to control exposure and optimize launch timing.
For buyers, this translates into disciplined underwriting and the ability to identify mispricing. For sellers, it means precise positioning, controlled exposure, and a strategy designed to attract qualified demand without compromising leverage.
His role is to protect positioning, enforce pricing discipline, and deliver outcomes that hold up under scrutiny.
Trusted by buyers, sellers, and investors navigating some of New York’s most complex transactions.
“I'm a very picky buyer. I needed a specific building with specific zoning, and as an out-of-area buyer, I was navigating neighborhoods and lease language I didn't fully understand. After several deals that almost came together — and a few that just fell through — Corey landed exactly what I wanted and negotiated a better deal than expected.”
“Corey brought deep insight into the NYC market and remained highly engaged from our very first conversation through closing. He made what can be a stressful process feel smooth and seamless — we always felt informed, supported, and confident at every step.”
“Corey Cohen showed great initiative — providing timely research on properties, education on the process, and recommended reliable professional resources. He responded personably and quickly to every question. An excellent experience from start to finish.”
“Their targeted marketing strategy yielded two competitive offers within two weeks of listing. From contract signing to closing, Corey stayed in close contact and shepherded us every step of the way.”
“I thought: I don't need another broker to send me listings I'm already seeing online. And then I met Corey. He stuck by our side through a search for a diamond in the rough and guided us through an extremely difficult negotiation. Corey is much more than a broker — he is an advisor and a friend.”
“We had a long, hard slog of a house hunt — three boroughs, two states, nearly a year. We saw brokers from the big, well-known NYC agencies. Corey really stood out. He's not afraid to give his honest opinion: he'll tell you when you've found a dud or when the price is too high, even though it costs him a commission. When you've been looking as long as we were, you realize how rare that is. We got a great deal on the property we eventually settled on — at the low end, possibly even slightly below market value.”
“We started looking in December 2020, peak of Covid. Corey helped us navigate and evaluate 25+ apartments across the Upper East and West Side, arming us with research and expertise at every step. After we had an accepted offer, he guided us strategically through the co-op application and closing. We couldn't have done it without him.”
“Corey's knowledge of the co-op process — which can be especially confusing for a first-time buyer — was invaluable. My transaction ended up being longer than expected, but his patience and constant reassurance made a stressful process much more manageable.”
