A native and lifelong resident of the Boston area and avid fan of the Patriots, Celtics, Bruins, and Red Sox, George is a member of Douglas Elliman’s elite Sports and Entertainment Team. In recent years, he has represented many prominent Bostonians on several transactions, including Celtics’ center Aron Baynes, former Patriot’s great Rob Gronkowski, and Reebok founder and philanthropist Paul Fireman whose stunning Chestnut Hill estate, offered at $38 Million, represents one of the most exceptional properties ever offered in the Commonwealth. It has been said that real estate is in his genes: George’s father, George Sr., and his brother, Manny (the other half of The Sarkis Team) are well-known, well-respected names in the industry. For George, his passion for his hometown – from its sports teams and the buzz of the city, to the beauty and diversity of the outlying suburbs – motivates him to excel in the profession he loves.

Manny Sarkis Partner & Chief Operating Officer Real Estate Salesperson
Manuel (Manny) Sarkis, who, along with his brother George, is a co-founder of Douglas Elliman’s award-winning Sarkis Team. Serving as the team’s Chief Operating Officer, Manny has spent more than 10 years as a top Boston real estate agent and offers his clients an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the market ranging from the unique features of the city’s diverse neighborhoods to valuable insights about Boston’s surrounding suburban towns. Manny has grown his career by maintaining a strong network of prominent individuals (both in and outside of the real estate industry), and – most importantly – by providing his clients with an unparalleled level of service. “I have built an extensive network in Boston and throughout MA that benefits all my clients. My goal is to be their real estate advisor for life.” A native of Boston, Manny earned a Masters Degree in Accounting from UMass Amherst. Self-described as “data and numbers driven,” Manny is a student of the market and provides his clients with sound insights based on historic trends, current data, and factors impacting value - thereby helping them to make informed decisions. A member of Douglas Elliman’s Sports and Entertainment Division, Manny counts some of the Boston Celtics as clients, among them, Aron Baynes and Carsen Edwards. But he is also sought after by first-time home buyers and recently received this glowing testimonial: “Manny…helped me purchase my first home…and was there every step of the way. He expedited the process quickly and fought relentlessly to get me the best possible deal.” And, from a developer client: “he was absolutely pivotal with our negotiations, which helped us stay on track from the beginning.”

Our Proprietary Approach
to Selling Real Estate "The first thing we do is we create a narrative that tells the story of the features and benefits of your home. From there, we create an ideal buyer profile based on our research of who we think will be the best fit to buy your home. Then, we have our exclusive photographers and videographers capture the essence of our narrative through breathtaking photos and videos. Next, we build a marketing plan specifically designed to push this narrative through specific channels so the ideal buyer becomes aware of your property. In the next phase, we help maximize your net return by artfully negotiating the ensuing series of phases we go through together.
Š 2020 DOUGLAS ELLIMAN REAL ESTATE.
EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY.
As we go through the inspection phase and the numerous opportunities to negotiate and position the property to maximize your return, we provide ample communication, knowledge, and resources so you are informed and empowered as we move through the negotiating period of your sale.
We pride ourselves in providing concierge level experience to our sellers during the process. As the sale concludes, our clients experience a higher net profit and a swift transaction because of our proven process.
