Jeffrey Sobel, president of longtime Boca Raton based development company SobelCo, is pleased to announce that seasoned real estate professionals Gigi Giusti and Joanna Berg, both realtor associates with Douglas Elliman, have been selected as the on-site sales executives for the company’s new Galleria Lofts in East Fort Lauderdale. Douglas Elliman Development Marketing is the exclusive sales and marketing firm for the development.

Giusti and Berg are spearheading strategic sales and marketing for the development, a collection of 48 contemporary, luxury townhomes offering sophisticated urban, mindful living. Located in the heart of Fort Lauderdale, the Galleria Lofts are just ½ mile from the modernized Galleria Mall, ¾ mile from the beach, and within walking distance from the Gateway Theater, allowing residents to immerse themselves in the urban lifestyle.

Giusti, who is bilingual in English and Spanish, specializes in selling luxury preconstruction homes and condominiums in East Fort Lauderdale. She has worked for several years with elite in-house sales teams for pre-construction projects such as 33 Intracoastal, The Wave on Bayshore, Four Seasons Private

Residences in Fort Lauderdale Beach and many more. After graduating from the University of Florida with first-hand experience and knowledge gained from her mother (who also works in real estate), Giusti went on to create The Meza Group, which now has a total record of selling over $650 million in pre-construction and existing sales. She was recognized in NRT's Society of Excellence receiving the

International President's Circle Award in 2012, the Sterling Society Team Award in 2013 and the Diamond Society Team Award in 2014 and 2015.

Very active in the community, Giusti was named as one of South Florida’s elite real estate agents with the Master Broker’s Forum. In addition, she was named one of 100 Outstanding Women of Broward County by Boys & Girls Clubs of Broward County in 2016, and was honored with the 2016 Fort Lauderdale's Finest award by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Giusti can be reached at Gigi.Giusti@Elliman.com or 954-632-5554.

A licensed real estate agent for more than 20 years, Berg has owned and operated both a title company and mortgage company before becoming active in high-end real estate sales in 2007. Specializing in the high-end homes and condominiums of Coral Gables, Brickell and the Miami beaches, Berg has been integral in successfully marketing and selling some of Miami's most sought-after projects including

Brickell City Centre, Oceana, One Thousand Museum and the Ritz Carlton Residences of Miami Beach. Her large network of clients and contacts includes some of the world's most discerning clients in the U.S., Russia and South America. Berg has also experience selling pre-construction, as she successfully represented 3900 Alton, a project located on Miami Beach; and Aston Martin Residences Miami, located in the Brickell/downtown area of Miami-Dade County.

Berg holds an associate in arts from Miami Dade College and a bachelor of arts from Florida International University. Originally from Puerto Rico, she is fluent in English and Spanish. A born competitor, she has been recognized for her numerous accomplishments in cycling, sailing and tennis, has completed 95 hours of private pilot training and is certified in the Garmin-100 Glass Cockpit.
