"The luxury residential market is booming," said Jacob Sudhoff, CEO of Douglas Elliman Real Estate, Texas.

In addition to operating in Houston, Douglas Elliman Real Estate will now be servicing resale, condominium sales, rentals, corporate relocation, and builder sales in Austin and Dallas. The company is the only national brokerage with an exclusive condominium sales division in Texas, with over $2.9 billion in new projects in the pipeline within Texas. With this expansion, the Douglas Elliman I Knight Frank partnership will also extend across all Douglas Elliman markets in Texas.
