Premier Estate Properties Featured In The Wall Street Journal: Margit Brandt Represents Seller In $70.8 Million Manalapan Estate Sale

Premier Estate Properties has again earned national recognition, this time in The Wall Street Journal, which reported that a Manalapan estate represented by Premier Estate Properties has sold for $70.8 Million. The transaction, profiled under the headline “Manalapan’s Hot Streak Continues With $70.8 Million Mansion Sale,” underscores the extraordinary momentum of one of South Florida’s most coveted coastal enclaves and the caliber of representation Premier brings to its esteemed clientele.

Margit Brandt of Premier Estate Properties held the listing for the residence, which was acquired by a prominent figure in the videogame industry. Ocean Sotheby’s International Realty represented the buyer. The sale continues a remarkable run of nine-figure and high-eight-figure closings along the barrier island, where a limited inventory of trophy estates commands the attention of ultra-high-net-worth buyers from across the country and abroad.

Manalapan, a slender ribbon of land bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, has emerged as one of the most sought-after addresses in Palm Beach County. Its rarefied combination of oceanfront privacy, deepwater frontage, and proximity to Palm Beach has produced a succession of record-setting transactions — a market in which Premier Estate Properties and Margit Brandt have repeatedly served as the trusted advisors of record.

This latest result reflects the qualities that have distinguished Premier Estate Properties since 1993: a boutique brokerage dedicated exclusively to properties in excess of One Million Dollars, independently held and never franchised, with a multi-million-dollar marketing platform and a national ranking for the highest average sales price in the country. Premier’s counsel is rooted in advisory expertise rather than commerce — the hallmark of a firm that has navigated every market cycle for more than three decades.
