Luis D. Ortiz On Leaving Real Estate: Does He Have Regrets About Leaving ‘MDLNY’?


Luis D. Ortiz shocked everyone when he announced that he was leaving real estate and leaving Million Dollar Listing: New York behind. He made this announcement during the Million Dollar Listing: New York finale last year. No one realized that Ortiz was on his way out of New York real estate and was planning on leaving the show.

But Luis decided to leave the industry in style, as he recommended his assistant to a new company as he didn’t want to screw anyone over by leaving his position with a real-estate agency.

According to a new Instagram post, Luis D. Ortiz is now opening up about his decision to leave real estate and leave Million Dollar Listing: New York. Before the season ended on television, Luis had already been planning what he would be doing during the summer.

Luis traveled to Greece to support Ryan Serhant during his wedding, and he even helped plan the bachelor party. But now that he’s back in New York City, does he have any regrets about leaving the show and leaving his well-paying position as a real-estate agent?

“I have watched the season finale of our last season only once. The day before it aired. I was in Greece so I couldn’t watch it at the same as all of you did, like I would have love to, because it was 5am. And I did try to though. Now I’m watching this clip from the last minutes of the episode and I have to say that it gave me a lot of emotion,” Luis D. Ortiz revealed on Instagram, sharing that he recently watched the Million Dollar Listing: New York finale once again and it was emotional for him.

Over the summer, Luis D. Ortiz traveled around Greece and Italy, and he documented his travels on Instagram and Facebook. He drank a lot of wine, ate pasta and hung out with people he met on his travels. He even ended up making out with a woman during his trip.

One can imagine that Luis wanted some clarity about his life and while traveling, he’s been thinking about his book. He even started writing it once he returned home. But as he explains, plenty of things have happened over the past couple of months, and he may not be sure about what’s next for him.

“So much has happened between the day I left Puerto Rico and [where] I stand today and I regret nothing. Everything I have done, [whether] I liked it then or didn’t, has all been a part of who I am today. I feel blessed for having learned to acknowledge that! I’m grateful for the process and for everyone who was and will continue to be part of it. I will continue to work hard and to inspire you along the way! Thank you so much!” Luis D. Ortiz concluded in his Instagram post, sharing that he regrets absolutely nothing.

Million Dollar Listing: New York won’t be the same without Luis next season. One can imagine that Fredrik Eklund and Ryan Serhant will return to the show and it is possible that the one agent who challenged Fredrik this season will replace Ortiz.

Luis D. Ortiz decided to leave the show as he didn’t find happiness in working with real estate anymore. After announcing his exit, Ortiz opened up about why he chose to leave the show and the industry, according to Reality Tea.
