Sutton makes a Deal

Retail deal-maker Jeff Sutton is planning to demolish his 12,000-square-foot waterfront mansion at 91 Ocean Avenue in Deal, N.J., sources told TRD’s Adam Pincus. Sutton purchased the home for $22.6 million last year. In its place, he will build a new house about 50 feet farther from the beach, to give him a larger backyard. The new house should be ready by 2015. Deal is a popular summer enclave among New York’s Syrian Jewish community, and Sutton’s next-door neighbor is competitor and sometime-partner Joseph Sitt of Thor Equities.

Greene thumb

Real estate mogul Jeff Greene and his wife, Mei Sze, who is pregnant with the couple’s third son, gave TRD’s Katherine Clarke a tour of their 55-acre waterfront estate on North Ferry Road in the Hamptons. Greene paid $36 million for the spread in 2011. On the day of TRD’s visit, Greene was preparing to hit the tennis court with cardiologist Arthur Agatston, the creator of the South Beach Diet. Greene said retired boxer Mike Tyson, a family friend, was also planning a visit to the estate.

MDL star mixes and mingles

“Million Dollar Listing New York” star Ryan Serhant attended a party last month at the Residences at W New York Downtown to promote the indie film “Ain’t Them Bodies Saints.” The Nest Seekers International broker was accompanied by Mitchell Moinian, developer Joseph Moinian’s son. Serhant and Nest Seekers colleague Scott Sporn also made a weekend trip to Korea to meet with investors. Evidently “MDLNY” is popular overseas: Serhant told TRD he was recognized by fans of the show while there.
