The panel featured: Paula Silberberg, an award-winning luxury real estate professional who serves as managing broker for Douglas Elliman’s Fort Lauderdale offices; Rose and Dean Sklar of Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate, recognized as the top sales associates in Weston for 10 years running; Josh Dotoli, whose namesake Luxury Homes Group under the One Sotheby’s banner has offices from Boca Raton to Miami; and Seth Kaufman, who oversees 200 agents across four South Florida offices as managing broker for One Sotheby’s. The panelists answered questions about everything from real estate trends in 2018 to where buyers can find affordable housing in the tri-county area.
