The stars have finally aligned for me to recap the finale of Million Dollar Listing New York. I hope you are all still interested. Let’s see how the boys end Season 3. I am looking forward to the reunion where Andy says everyone, including Andy sheds a few tears.
Luis
Luis gets a call from Fredrik who claims to be wanting to make up with Luis after the Brooklyn debacle. This destroys Luis’s meditative morning with his bonsai tree. In fact, the poor bonsai tree, who was being so lovingly pruned before the call takes a punch!
Janet called from 30 Lincoln to let Luis know that the Ryan’s closing went through. She offers to show her appreciation by letting him relist the apartment she rudely snatched from him three months ago. The problem is that she has raised the price, and Luis could not find a buyer before at the lower price. So this will be a challenge.
Meanwhile, he has staged the hell out of his Wall Street listing with the funky room shapes. It’s incredible looking now. I can’t believe he staged the place for $20,000. It really does look amazing. He has a huge open house. Ryan shows up to support him. Ut-oh, Fredrik shows up uninvited under the pretense of making up with Luis. Luis is not open to Fredrik’s apology . They take it outside. Luis says that if he treats Derek like that, he feels sorry for him too. That was a low blow, Luis. Fredrik loses it. Luis calls him a weak piece of shit after Fredrik walks off. It’s all very dramatic.
Luis got an offer for Janet over the ask in less than three weeks. Janet is thrilled and Luis has a new seller in his pocket.

Ryan
Ryan has a listing for a nice little apartment near Times Square. I don’t understand Ryan’s pricing theories. He always lists at a lower price than he tells the client he may be able to get. People like to negotiate there needs to be a little wiggle room so that the buyer feels like he is getting a deal. The seller is a professional ballroom dancer and as part of Ryan’s search to find his soul, he is going to get dance lessons so he can take his beleaguered girlfriend out on a date. I’m quite sure that Ryan took some dance classes during his acting days; however, he acting like he has never even heard a song in his life, much less danced.
Ryan is trying to sell the new listing by cold calling Asian investors in Hong Kong. And it’s working like a charm. He got a deal at 10% over ask.
I thought that Ryan’s dance idea would be really dumb. But it was kind of sweet and had the desired effect on Amelia.
Ryan says he doesn’t want to be a douchebag anymore and Amelia is home to him now. He’s ready to settle down.

Fredrik
Fredrik has business in the Hamptons and takes Derek with him. Somehow, Fredrik got the listing on an entire new subdivision, and another agent will basically do all the work, by doing all the showings. Fredrik is going to do the marketing. His plan is odd. He seems to think that people who live in a house, need a doorman and a gym. Buildings need doormen and gyms, Fredrik. Summer homes do not.
OMG! The agent doing the showings for Fredrik is so loud and obnoxious I cannot tolerate her voice.
Fredrik is out celebrating being the number one team in commissions at Douglass Elliman. That really is a big deal. Meanwhile, he negotiated offers for five of the 37 Hamptons houses he has listed. Not too shabby.
Fredrik suggests that he and Derek buy one of the houses in the Hamptons. It would be a great place for Derek to paint. Derek is thrilled.
Tomorrow night the reunion begins. I’ll be watching! Will you?
Hell to the yeah I’ll be watching!
Yes, I will. Like I said before, I am in love with Fredrik and Derek. I hope there’s a daughter in their near future. I wish I could believe that Ryan and Luis are BFFs now but Luis, watch your back. Again, the properties are really amazing. Love watching this show and will continue. I’m behind on watching, but will be watching this one you recapped before the reunion. Thanks TT.
I couldn’t even follow what Luis was so still so angry at Fredrik about. And then for him to bring up Fredrik’s husband? Lowdown. Fredrik is “disgusting” but Ryan is your new BFF? I’m over Luis officially, his boyish charm has curdled. It will be interesting if he makes amends for his behavior to Fredrik on the reunion. I can’t wait to see Luis’ reaction to Ryan’s Small Broker shade.
I agree that it was a low blow. I was also confused at first about Luis’s anger towards Fredrick and then I realized that the situation was the second time where Fredrick belittled him under the guise of “being helpful.” Luis strikes me as a prideful person and he has been embarrassed by Fredrick twice now. (Despite if that was Fredrik’s intent) So now his motives are being questioned, which I can see why Luis would.
I get Luis’s position too. But damn if Fredrik is not doing a good acting job of being genuine… sigh…

Ryan’s public NYC dance was so thoughtful and romantic but I held my breath thinking . . . . I hope she’s not expecting a “proposal”!
Yeah, I thought that too!
It looked like that’s what she thought was about to happen. I thought it was even cooler that he did all that and it wasn’t a proposal! Most guys do a big thing (not that big) when they propose, and never again really. This is a whole new way to be romantic. Well, if you have money anyway..It was great!
Ok, I’m up to date. I’ve known a guy like Luis. Lots of energy, positive and negative energy. Luis hit the plant, he punched the wall, he said Fredrik did not want to see how bad he could be if pushed (along those lines). He’s a drinker too. Temper and alcohol are a very bad combination. The guy I knew like that could be extremely sweet, but also very scary. They seem very similar to me. I know, I know I don’t know Luis at all, but I think his temper could cause him trouble. Didn’t he throw a glass in anger also?
It was so sweet to see Ryan dancing in Central Park with the girlfriend.
Fredrik, condescending, yes. Still love him.
Yes, yes I will be watching. Love this show.
Ryan’s disappointed me a few times yet he has always been my favorite. He is self aware and I like that he wrote Luis a check a while back. Money does matter.
I’m still interested and found this post very funny. Thanks for the giggles. However, I thought Ryan’s dance was corny. It did seem to work though. I wonder if Amelia thought he was proposing at some point? She sort of had that look her on her face for a fleeting moment to me. It was sweet to hear Ryan talk about working so much for his AND Amelia’s future. The reunion can go either way. I will keep my fast forward access handy while watching.
Finally a reunion that I actually want to watch.
His girlfriend’s name is actually Emilia. Emilia Bechrakis.
