Ivan Sher is a trailblazer in luxury real estate, setting new benchmarks in the industry as the founder of IS Luxury, the premier luxury brokerage serving Las Vegas, Henderson and Orange County. With a career spanning over two decades, Ivan has consistently redefined excellence, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in high-end real estate.

Originally from California, Ivan moved to Las Vegas in 2000 and quickly ascended under the mentorship of Florence Shapiro, one of the city's most esteemed luxury real estate figures. Together, they built more than just a business—they crafted experiences, elevated lifestyles and fostered deep-rooted relationships based on trust and care. Their partnership led to the creation of the Shapiro & Sher Group in 2005, which became synonymous with top-tier service and record-breaking sales.

When Florence unexpectedly passed in 2017, Ivan faced a profound loss. Rather than letting grief define the moment, he honored their shared legacy by reimagining their business, evolving The Ivan Sher Group into a brand that would continue to set the gold standard in luxury real estate. In 2022, he took this vision to the next level, transforming The Ivan Sher Group into an independent brokerage—IS Luxury. This transition was not just a business move but a tribute to the foundation of excellence, dedication integrity they had built together.

Since its inception, IS Luxury has become the undisputed leader in Las Vegas' luxury real estate market, consistently ranking as the No. 1 luxury brokerage in the region. Under Ivan’s leadership, IS Luxury has closed billions in high-end home sales over the past three years, each transaction representing not just a sale, but a story—of dreams realized, futures shaped, and extraordinary possibilities made reality.

Beyond business, Ivan is deeply dedicated to philanthropy, supporting organizations such as the Keep Memory Alive Foundation and The Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health. His leadership, innovation and impact extend far beyond real estate, making him a distinguished figure in both his industry and community.
