Premier Sotheby’s International acquires another Naples-based realty firm

Premier Sotheby’s International Realty acquired the assets of another Naples-based residential brokerage, Stock Realty Resale & Rental.

The acquisition “strengthens our presence in the southeast Naples area,” Judy Green, CEO of Premier Sotheby’s, said in a prepared statement.

The former office of Stock Realty Resale & Rental at 7711 Collier Boulevard in Naples now operates under the Premier Sotheby’s brand.

The managing director of the office is David Gape, who also leads the Premier Sotheby’s office in Marco Island.

Twenty-one agents were affiliated with Stock Realty prior to the acquisition by Premier Sotheby’s, which invited them to remain with the office on Collier Boulevard.

Premier Sotheby’s, affiliated with the storied Sotheby’s auction house, has more than 1,100 associates and employees in 40 locations in Florida and North Carolina. – Mike Seemuth
