About Dmitry Khenkin and Grand Realty Advisors
Dmitry Khenkin · Licensed Real Estate Broker · President, Grand Realty Advisors

Dmitry Khenkin is a licensed real estate broker and the president of Grand Realty Advisors, with offices in Livingston, New Jersey, and on Sheepshead Bay Road in Brooklyn. He holds broker licenses in New York, New Jersey, Florida and Pennsylvania, and works with clients in English and Russian.
His business sits in two markets most agents treat as separate: the towns of North and Central New Jersey, and New York City, above all South Brooklyn and Staten Island, where most of his New York sales are. He also serves buyers and sellers in Manhattan. His Zillow record shows more than 145 closed sales, from one-bedroom apartments to homes above $2 million, including 33 in Livingston. In New Jersey he mostly represents buyers; in Brooklyn, mostly sellers. That mix is what makes him useful to people moving from one to the other.
His approach is hands-on. Clients mention the same things: he knows the market, answers quickly, is patient with first-time buyers and doesn't let go in a negotiation. He stays involved from the first showing to the final walk-through and brings in whoever a deal needs: attorneys, mortgage brokers, inspectors, even painters and movers. Many clients come back for their next move.

How we work
Experience where it counts.
More than 145 closed sales, from one-bedroom co-ops to homes above $2 million. Most deals hit a snag somewhere, and it helps to have seen that snag before.
Knowledge you can use.
We explain the parts nobody explains: attorney review in New Jersey, co-op boards in New York, what an appraisal gap means for your offer.
Attention to detail.
Deadlines, deposits, repair credits, the final walk-through. Small things decide whether a closing date holds.
Problem-solving.
When an inspection, an appraisal or a lender surprises everyone, we look for the fix, not someone to blame, and we keep the deal moving.
Available when you need us.
We work around your schedule and answer the phone. An agent who's too busy for you is no help.
Honesty.
Straight advice, including when it isn't what you hoped to hear. As one client put it, Dmitry “was not pushing for a sale/purchase and was very accommodating.”
What clients say
Read all 43 reviews“We had an exceptional experience working with Dmitry as our agent in Livingston, NJ, who guided us through the purchase of our pre-construction home. Dmitry’s responsiveness was unparalleled—always prompt, clear, and available to address our questions, no matter how small. His professionalism shone through in every interaction, especially navigating complex conversations with the builder. Dmitry truly advocated for our needs, ensuring our vision for the home was met while protecting our interests at every step. His deep knowledge of the Livingston market and pre-construction process made us feel confident and supported. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in this journey and highly recommend Dmitry to anyone looking for a dedicated, trustworthy agent. We loved working with him!”
“I recently had the pleasure of partnering with Dmitry for selling our Staten Island home and purchasing a new one in NJ. I’m truly impressed by his service—it’s top-notch, white-glove treatment. Dmitry quickly grasped what would suit our family best, and we secured a new home with a deposit within just one day of searching! Moreover, Dmitry went the extra mile to sell our home, and it was off the market in just three days and provided us with legal and other resources necessary to smoothly close on the sale and the purchase of the new home. If you’re seeking a personalised and professional approach, Dmitry is the person for you!”
“Dmitry was ideal in what was a stressful process in buying our home in a new state. He helped us navigate through the entire process, making himself always available to all of our inquiries and needs. He went to bat for us every single time and got a great deal and made sure to follow up all the way through and after. Awesome realtor and person!”
“Dmitry is a very knowledgeable real estate professional who not only understands the local market but also the needs of his clients. Dmitry found us a home during a very fast paced market with little inventory and a lot of competition. His patience, guidance, and high level of expertise helped us find our beautiful home in the exact area where we wanted to be. He was always available anytime we needed him and was very responsive through the entire lengthy process. I would highly recommend Dmitry if you're looking for a true professional who really goes above and beyond for his clients.”
“The best experience ever! We consider ourselves EXTREMELY LUCKY to have come across Dmitry Khenkin. Not only he is exceptionably knowledgeable, but he REALLY CARES!!! He spent quite some time with us. Since the process was new to us, he kept showing us various properties so that we had better understanding of what we were looking for. In the end, Dmitry helped us find our wonderful home!!! Our family and friends already knew to reach out to Dmitry Khenkin and were never disappointed!”
“Dmitry is an amazing agent. I used him to buy my property and also to sell it. He was able to sell my home in less than 24 hours and way above my asking price. He guided me through the selling process and made sure it went smoothly. Whenever there was a hiccup, Dmitry was there to smooth it out. I highly recommend him for your real estate needs.”
“Dmitry is the real thing!!! If you need a one of a kind wonderful real estate agent, he is your person. Dmitry is a hard working agent who is the kindest, knowledgeable, loyal and honest. From the moment my husband and I interacted with Dmitry, we had only but positive experiences. We were searching for a place for our son and his family who were planning to move back to NJ from out of state. We had to do all the logistical work for our son since we are here in NJ. Dmitry walked us through every step of the way with gold gloves. We are so privileged to have met Dmitry and we are planning on maintaining the relationship with him, and he will always be our go to person as “they don’t make them like that anymore!” Thank you, Dmitry, for your hard work, your outstanding people skills and incredible work ethics. Miki-Livingston NJ”
