Fredrik Eklund moved to New York City without any job, connections, or family assistance. Initially, he worked for $15 an hour selling paninis outside a late-night show. A friend encouraged him to pursue real estate. A boutique agency hired him despite his lack of experience. Eklund now leads The Eklund|Gomes Team with nearly 100 agents and has closed over $15 billion in property deals. He has developed a notable celebrity clientele and is also expanding his influence in Miami's luxury real estate market.
"I was a little bit lucky to happen to fall into it; I got my license at NYU and I got a job from someone stupid enough to hire me with no experience."
"This was at a time when New York-and I didn't know it then-was very undervalued, and it was about to explode in what I've been focusing on: new developments, and these new beautiful buildings."
