Paul Brennan
Lic. Assoc. Real Estate Broker
DOUGLAS ELLIMAN REAL ESTATE
Paul has a proven track record and reputation for being refreshingly honest, open to new ideas, and willing to go the extra mile to find the right solutions for his clients. As someone who has successfully weathered the storms and natural ebb and flow of the marketplace, Paul has an unparalleled understanding of Hamptons’ real estate. Known for being a discreet and skilled negotiator, he has particular expertise in listing and selling large oceanfront and estate properties.
Career highlights include brokering the Scuttle Hole Road property in Bridgehampton that became the Atlantic Golf Course, and the sale of Eothen, Paul Morrissey’s oceanfront estate in Montauk that was once owned by Andy Warhol, and the Estate of Juan Trippeon West End Ave in East Hampton Village.
Paul can trace his ancestry back to the founding of Southampton in 1640. Although he attended Assumption College in Massachusetts and ventured to Australia to play professional basketball with the Bankstown Bruins—Paul has spent most of his life living and working in his beloved hometown. Paul worked with Allan Schneider Associates until co-founding the firm of Braverman Newbold Brennan, which was later sold to Sotheby’s International Real Estate. In 1999, Paul met Dottie Herman, president and CEO of Douglas Elliman. He joined DE and has been instrumental in growing the company’s reach on the East End from one small office to ten thriving offices on the North and South forks.
Paul was instrumental in establishing the Peconic Bay Region Community Preservation Fund in 1999, which has saved more than 10,000 acres of land from overdevelopment. Paul believes his clients’ real estate values will strongly benefit from the East End maintaining its unique character and natural beauty.
