FREDRIK EKLUND +JOHN GOMES
SAYING HELLO
Thank you for considering us. Over a decade ago we created a business partnership that grew into a friendship that the two of us never could’ve imagined. I guess we could say the same for the business that has come of it as well. We pinch ourselves everyday to be sure it’s real, because much of it feels like a dream. All these years later we look back and think where did the time go. Over the years we have grown in numbers as we have hired some of the
best and most highly regarded agents in the business to join us on our journey. Together we have broken many records as we set a new standard for the industry. In many ways we feel as though we are just getting started...We have recently expanded our business into the LA and Miami markets, where after interviewing the best of the best we created twoamazing teams of highly qualified agents, who have years of experience in these markets. Together we are growing with the sole mission to be the best at what we do so we can best serve you in all of your real estate needs. We hope you give us the opportunity to show you how we are different than the rest. We look forward to working with you!
Truly yours,
FREDRIK EKLUND
SAYING HELLO//
Fredrik Eklund has been called many things: broker to the stars, the #1 agent of his generation, the two billion dollars per year man, Mr. Sell, Mr. NY, and now Mr. LA. In the summer of 2019, he relocated to Beverly Hills with his husband and two children, set to become the #1 broker in California.
With his trademark high kick, his record-breaking sales, and his truly expansive vision, Fredrik Eklund is a real estate industry phenomenon As the founder of the 80-member strong EKLUND|GOMES Team, Eklund and his business partner, John Gomes have secured more than $14B in sales over the past decade with $4.5B in the last year alone.
Fredrik Eklund is currently filming the 9th season of “Million Dollar Listing” and finished the 12th season of “Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles” on Bravo. Both shows go out to 142 countries. With a massive fan following, Fredrik has over two million social media followers, more than any other broker.
With the opening of a new office in Beverly Hills, Eklund’s vision is sure to translate well from the team’s experience in New York and Miami. His flair for dynamic marketing and ability to attract the industry’s most creative, high-profile, successful agents means that Southern California’s luxury marketplace will now experience first-hand his determination, sometimes obsession, to get the highest price in the shortest amount of time – an attitude and practice that has earned him lifelong client relationships.
With the philosophy that no property or price point is too big or too small, Eklund closed 842 transactions in 2019 and has successfully sold more than 130 new developments over his career. Representing many of the biggest names in Hollywood, Wall Street, and the fashion and music industry, the Eklund|Gomes Beverly Hills location gives Eklund and his team a physical presence in a market where he’s already well known and respected.
Originally from Stockholm, Sweden, Eklund studied at the Stockholm School of Economics. At the age of 23, he founded an internet company with over 45 employees and went on to work for the investment bank SEB in Stockholm, London, Singapore, and Tokyo before relocating to New York City.
Fredrik Eklund is involved in several charities, including My Big Day, with the Princess of Sweden, Madeleine, as well as Zimbabwe’s Forgotten Children.
