Douglas Elliman’s Powerful Partnership with Knight Frank Residential

Douglas Elliman Real Estate, the 2nd highest-grossing private real estate company in the United States, formed an exclusive partnership with Knight Frank Residential headquartered in London, which is an international luxury real estate firm that individually operates across Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia.

Together, DE & KF joined forces to create an influential real estate network spanning 520 offices in 60 countries across 6 continents.

The Wealth Report examines investment trends covering almost 100 countries and 100+ cities, including what $1M USD buys you around the world.
