Third Largest Real Estate Brokerage in United States Acquires Manalapan-Based Scott Gordon Realty

Douglas Elliman, the nation’s third largest residential real estate brokerage company, announced today that it has acquired Manalapan-based Scott Gordon Realty. With over 30 years of real estate experience, founder and CEO Scott Gordon has been one of the leading Palm Beach County condominium marketing and sales specialists since 1987. Gordon, who has been named executive director of luxury sales, joins Elliman with his wife and business partner, Mindy Gordon, and their team of real estate professionals. They will continue to work from 270 South Ocean Boulevard located in Plaza del Mar, across from the iconic Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa in Manalapan.

With this announcement, Douglas Elliman now boasts 22 offices and approximately 1,100 real estate agents across the state of Florida.

“Our intent to join forces with likeminded professionals as we continue to grow the Elliman brand across the state of Florida led us directly to Scott and his incredible team,” said Jay Phillip Parker, CEO of Douglas Elliman Florida. “Manalapan has shown tremendous growth throughout the last decade and we are thrilled to have a strong presence in this important market.”

With future plans to tap into the surrounding areas of Manalapan including Palm Beach Island, Delray Beach, Hypoluxo, and West Palm Beach, Gordon and his team bring to Elliman 51 active exclusive listings.

"The decision to join Douglas Elliman was based on the strength of the brand, both nationally and internationally, as we continue to see strong interest in Manalapan from buyers from across the country and around the world,” said Scott Gordon. “Douglas Elliman provides a multitude of impressive platforms including a global partnership with Knight Frank and best-in-class technology, marketing, and public relations that will help my team provide superior service to our valued customers and clients."
