Services

What Gerrit does.

Two offerings, both rooted in the same principle: that the people who own significant property deserve an advisor who takes it as seriously as they do.

Brokerage

Buying and selling in Palm Beach and West Palm Beach.

Gerrit represents buyers and sellers in the estate section of Palm Beach Island and the historic districts of El Cid and Southland Park. His practice is deliberately focused — he doesn't work in every market, which means he knows these markets in a way that generalists don't.

For buyers

Access to off-market and pre-market inventory that never reaches public listings.

Candid guidance on value — what a property is genuinely worth, not what a seller hopes to get.

Negotiation that protects your interests without poisoning the transaction.

A network of architects, contractors, and specialists for properties that need work.

For sellers

Honest pricing analysis based on real comparable sales, not optimistic projections.

Thoughtful positioning — public listing, quiet market, or a hybrid approach depending on the property.

Access to Sotheby's International Realty global marketing platform and qualified buyer network.

Discretion throughout — your transaction is not a marketing opportunity for anyone else.

Estate Management

Ongoing care for clients who need it.

For clients who require more than a transaction — seasonal caretaking, vendor coordination, property oversight during extended absences — Gerrit extends the same attention beyond the closing. This is a relationship offering, not a separate service line. It's available to clients he works with, not as a standalone engagement.

Seasonal property preparation and close-down.

Vendor coordination and oversight — contractors, landscapers, household staff.

Regular property checks and condition reporting.

Liaison with building management, HOAs, and local authorities as needed.

If you're not sure which of these applies to your situation, the right first step is a conversation. Reach out directly.
