About Kirill Shapkin
Kirill Shapkin is a Luxury Real Estate Advisor and licensed REALTORA(R) with Compass, the nation's largest residential real estate brokerage by sales volume, and a member of the Geane Brito Group. He advises buyers, sellers and relocation clients, many of them buying from abroad, throughout South Florida, with a particular focus on Brickell, Downtown Miami, Miami Beach, Edgewater, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, Bal Harbour, and Sunny Isles Beach. His specialties include branded residences and high-rise living, waterfront and single-family homes, and guidance on new development and pre-construction.
Kirill was born and raised in Volzhsky, near Volgograd, Russia, where he became a multiple-time national champion in sprint kayaking (K-1 200m). He moved to California for college, earned an associate degree in business administration, and went straight into work, starting in property management.
After starting his real estate career in North Carolina, Kirill moved to Miami, where he worked in pre-construction and new-development sales.
That foundation led him to Compass and the Geane Brito Group, which has closed more than $220 million in real estate transactions over the past five years-including approximately $55 million in the most recent year-and has been recognized in the RealTrends Verified 2026 rankings among the top 1.5% of real estate teams nationwide for six consecutive years running.
Clients choose Kirill for a disciplined, strategy-first approach: buy and sell decisions grounded in market comps and data; negotiation that protects price and terms; pre-contract risk review of disclosures and deal structure; and coordinated execution from offer through closing. For clients abroad, he can guide the purchase remotely, with live video tours and coordination with attorneys and CPAs who work with foreign buyers. His clients rate him five stars on Google. Having grown up around entrepreneurs, Kirill brings the same disciplined, outcomes-driven mindset to real estate. He speaks fluent English and Russian.
