NAPLES, Fla. (PRWEB) April 15, 2021 - Engel & Vlkers Florida today announced its first quarter of 2021 report. The company has seen significant year-over-year increases, a steady stream of transactions at all price points, increased its sales volume, grown advisor count through talent attraction, and is continuing with major franchise expansion.
What is required to rapidly grow an agent's real estate business has dramatically changed over the past year, said Peter Giese, Chief Growth Officer at Engel & Vlkers Florida. Were seeing a zealous movement of top agents and teams leaving their current brokerage to join Engel & Vlkers, demonstrating the power of our collaborative global network and marketing platform that gives them access to a new set of luxury clientele. We project this level of growth to continue, as we have doubled our sales volume in the past 12 months to now exceed $3-billion annually in the state of Florida.
In the first quarter of 2021, Engel & Vlkers Florida reported 1,424 transactions across its 37 shops; a 68-percent increase from deals seen in quarter one of 2020. The sales totaled a volume of $742,868,687; an 112-percent year-over-year increase.

Engel & Vlkers Florida expanded their reach to include five new shops in premium first and second home markets throughout the state. The new shops will be located in Hollywood Beach, Neptune Beach, Orlando, Sarasota and Venice Downtown. Engel & Vlkers Neptune Beach was a result of License Partner, Corey Hasting expanding his regional territory in northeast Florida. Engel & Vlkers Orlando was secured by Ahmed Elbatrawy, a former top producing agent with Coldwell Banker; together with Managing Broker, Eric Bolves, they will soon open their doors at 2049 W Central Blvd. in Orlando. Details about Engel & Vlkers Hollywood, Engel & Vlkers Sarasota and Engel & Vlkers Venice will be forthcoming.
Im proud of what we have accomplished at Engel & Vlkers Florida over the past 17 years, Timo Khammash, Managing Partner of Engel & Vlkers Florida. In less than two decades, we have become a formidable competitor in the premium segment of the real estate industry. We have ambitious goals that require a two fold strategy: supporting our existing franchises to capture additional market share to penetrate the communities were already serving, and expanding our footprint into new markets with competent professionals throughout the state of Florida.
