Introducing the Cast of ‘Selling The City’
Netflix continues to expand its lineup of real estate shows, with “Selling the City” emerging as the latest spinoff of “Selling Sunset” now available on the platform.
This new series delves into the lives of real estate agents operating in New York, contrasting with the original show set in Los Angeles. Additional spinoffs from producer Adam DiVello includes “Selling Tampa” and “Selling the OC.”
Who are the newest realtors stepping into the world of reality television? We had the opportunity to chat with the cast of “Selling the City” at a press event ahead of its premiere.
Eleonora Srugo
In the rankings of power on the show, Eleonora Srugo is clearly one of the frontrunners.
According to her biography on Douglas Elliman’s website, she was responsible for a staggering $75 million deal, marking the brokerage’s largest transaction of 2023. In terms of volume, she ranks as the fourth top realtor nationwide within the brokerage.
As the leader of a team at Douglas Elliman, she supervises several junior agents.
“I’m fiercely loyal, ambitious, and protective of this team,” Srugo shared with TODAY.com. “I love and respect all these women, and I’m incredibly proud of how they represented themselves—conflict resolution and everything—on camera.”
Describing her connection to New York City, Srugo states, “it runs through my veins.”
“I was born and raised on these streets,” she asserts. “I’ve never left and I never will.”
She considers herself an “open book.”
“I can’t wait to share everything and be completely transparent about my life with the world and tell my story.”

Jordyn Taylor Braff
Jordyn Taylor Braff is a part of Srugo’s team, operating in both New York City and Los Angeles.
“I am a California girl, and that definitely influences my demeanor on the show,” Braff revealed to TODAY.com. “I tend to be a bit more laid-back compared to your typical New Yorker.”
During the show, Braff shared that her first major deal in New York City was with a celebrity ex-boyfriend.
“I was visiting and we met up, but I was really nervous. At that time, he was just starting out with no one really knowing who he was,” she recounted to a co-star.
Eventually, she revealed that the celebrity was Trevor Noah and cheekily asserted that she was the one with the better sense of humor in the relationship.
“Trevor would often use me for material,” she explained in a confessional. “While he did turn me into a punchline from time to time, he also borrowed my material, that’s for sure.”

Giselle Meneses-Nunez
Giselle Meneses-Nunez is another member of Srugo’s team, identifying herself to TODAY.com as both a “Jersey girl” and a “single mom.”
“I’ve put in a tremendous amount of effort to reach my current position,” she remarked. “My family immigrated from Cuba with only $20 in my dad’s pocket.”
She expresses a desire for people to recognize that success is attainable.
“I hope to inspire others by showing that with determination, hard work, and hustle, you can reach your goals,” she stated.

Taylor Middleton Scavo
Another member of Srugo’s team, Taylor Middleton Scavo hails from Nashville, Tennessee, and has made Manhattan her home for over ten years.
“I hope viewers recognize the significant investment I make not just in my business but also in my personal growth and my relationship,” she expressed.
The series also highlights her relationship with her husband and their journey with IVF.

Abigail Godfrey
Abigail Godfrey rounds out Srugo’s team featured on the show. Originally from South Carolina, she has been a New York resident for five years.
“I always dreamt of coming here and making a mark,” she shared with TODAY.com. “Being alongside these women is a blessing—a dream realized.”
Godfrey characterizes herself as having a “fiery” personality.
“I often speak without thinking,” she admits. “I will always stand up for what I believe in, even if it leads to trouble.”
A Clemson graduate, Godfrey met her husband Pat there while he was on the football team.
According to her Douglas Elliman profile, they collaborate on philanthropic initiatives and co-founded About U Outreach, which supports marginalized high school athletes in navigating the college recruitment process.

Jade Chan
Jade Chan stands apart from Srugo’s team, working as an agent focused on new developments, according to her Douglas Elliman profile.
Born in New York and raised in Atlanta, Chan emphasizes that while she may appear “all-business” on screen, she possesses a vibrant and dynamic personality.
“While you see my spicy side on the show, I have so much more to offer beyond work,” Chan explains.
“I often say I’ve sold my soul to the reality of real estate, and now I’ve done it again with reality TV—an ongoing theme in my adult life—but I am, and always have been, a good person,” she shares.

He also briefly appeared on Season 2 of Bravo’s popular series “Summer House” as a blind date for cast member Lauren Wirkus.
