Marquis Who's Who Honors Brian M. Sergi-Curfman for Success and Insights in Real Estate
UNIONDALE, NY / ACCESS Newswire / February 7, 2025 / Marquis Who's Who honors for his success in real estate. Mr. Sergi-Curfman operates under 'integrity, compassion, and experience.' He has followed these values throughout his storied and successful career as a salesperson and as an associate broker. With the same integrity, compassion, and experience he has served his clients, he has garnered valuable experience over 20 years working in real estate. His impressive sales record and insights in his field have earned him many awards and recognitions. Brian M. Sergi-Curfman: A Legacy in Real Estate Excellence Mr. Sergi-Curfman's inspiring journey through the Pittsburgh real estate industry showcases his unwavering dedication and outstanding achievements over two decades. In 2004, after realizing he was unfulfilled in his first career, he sought more meaningful work, which led him to Howard Hanna Real Estate and Mortgage Services. Beginning as a part-time agent, he quickly surpassed many experienced colleagues in sales and became a full-time Realtor® within two years. Throughout his distinguished career, Mr. Sergi-Curfman has achieved a sales volume exceeding $250 million, which is particularly impressive considering the average home sale price rose from $184,000 in 2003 to $261,000 in 2024. More than 20 professional designations and certifications, along with over 40 industry accolades, showcase his dedication to his craft. Each was earned through hard work and commitment, allowing him to guide his clients to success while providing exceptional, tailored service and a unique approach to every individual. Among his many accolades, Mr. Sergi-Curfman has been recognized by the American Institute of Real Estate Professionals as one of the '10 Best Real Estate Agents in Pennsylvania' for client satisfaction and loyalty. He has also been named one of 'America's Best Real Estate Agents' by RealTrends and the Pittsburgh Business Times. He is one of only nine agents in Western Pennsylvania to receive the Five Star Award from Pittsburgh Magazine and the Five Star Organization a total of eight times. The Realty Alliance National Sales Excellence Award has ranked him in the top 1% of real estate agents for sales nationwide, and the American Institute of Real Estate Agents has honored him as one of Pennsylvania's 'Ten Best Real Estate Agents' for client satisfaction. To remain aware of the latest trends in policy and real estate law, Mr. Sergi-Curfman frequently utilizes resources from the Pennsylvania Association of Realtors and Howard Hanna. Likewise, his academic credentials-a Bachelor of Arts in biology and psychology with a minor in negotiation ethics from Carnegie Mellon University, along with a Master of Science in Education focused on higher education administration and counseling from Indiana University Bloomington-enhance his negotiation, counseling, and ethical decision-making skills, which are essential for providing exemplary service to clients and developing effective strategies while working for them. Mr. Sergi-Curfman's professional and personal ethos is anchored by three guiding principles: integrity, compassion, and experience. These core values represent not just ideals for him; they actively shape his approach to real estate and client relationships. Integrity ensures he conducts business honestly and transparently, fostering trust with his clients, while compassion drives him to empathize with the unique needs of others. Lastly, his extensive experience and designations in the real estate market provide him with the insights and skills necessary to navigate any challenges that may arise. These principles solidify Mr. Sergi-Curfman's reputation as a dependable and successful Realtor®, a knowledgeable and compassionate ally, and a force to be reckoned with in supporting his clients' needs. Outside work, Mr. Sergi-Curfman is a devoted family man who cherishes every moment spent with his loving husband and their two spirited children. Together, they create joyful memories, sharing laughter and adventures while caring for their two playful golden retrievers, three affectionate cats, and a wise 25-year-old cockatiel who adds charm to their home. His passions include the delicate art of porcelain collecting, the excitement of visiting amusement parks, and the nostalgic beauty of carousel horses, all reflecting his vibrant spirit and love for life. Looking ahead, Mr. Sergi-Curfman aspires to take on more prominent leadership roles within Howard Hanna. He believes that his extensive skill set and partnership with the company will empower him to excel in elevated positions. His harmonious blend of education, experience, and ethical commitment solidifies his status as a remarkable leader in the dynamic real estate sector. About Marquis Who's Who®: Since 1899, when A. N.
