About
Rafael Barbosa is a New York real estate advisor with COMPASS, specializing in residential listings across Upper Manhattan, Riverdale, Yonkers, Bronxville, and Tuckahoe.

His reputation is built on sharp negotiation, accurate pricing, and marketing that gets properties sold. Many clients return across multiple transactions and refer the people they trust.

Mr. Barbosa was excellent and helping and informing my wife and myself of all the information that we requested in this transaction. We made a few request for help, and he was very graceful in assisting. Great Job.

I had an excellent experience working with Ralph Barbosa during the sale of my apartment in Riverdale. He was incredibly patient throughout the entire process and always sincere with his feedback, which I truly appreciated. He took the time to explain each step, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt confident in every decision. His professionalism and honesty made the experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their property.

Mr. Barbosa helped me sell my property. Through the process, he was very professional, actively engaging with my lawyer and providing advice that led to the sale of my property at a higher amount. I strongly recommend him for the selling or buying of your property if you are looking for someone that is honest, professional, and will work in your best interests.

Rafael Barbosa is an exceptional Real Estate agent, and i have worked with plenty of them in a lifetime. Rafael was referred to me by another Serhant agent who assisted me with a NYC sale in the past, and he was amazingly thorough, and helpful. The apartment sold much faster than I ever thought it would, and Rafael was able to secure an offer above the listed asking price. I could not recommend a broker more highly!

Rafael was our guy! He was attentive, efficient and exceeded our expectations when finding our home! We gave him a tight deadline and he was able to meet it ahead of time. He made the process of purchasing a home seamless and really looked out for our best interests. We highly recommend him to anyone we know. You will not regret it!
