DeWitt Goss

Manhattan, NY Matthews Real Estate Investment Services, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, announced the opening of its New York office at 575 Fifth Ave., #2810. The office is the first New York office for the Nashville-based brokerage. Matthews set forth an aggressive national expansion plan in late 2022 and has since opened four offices, with plans to launch three additional offices in the next six months. 

Less than two blocks from Rockefeller Center, the Fifth Ave. mixed-use workspace features on-site retail, dining, and collaborative office suites. Leasing approximately 6,200 s/f, Matthews’ agents, employees, and clients will be within minutes of the city’s global destinations and transportation hubs. Associate Market Leader DeWitt Goss will lead growth initiatives within the New York office.

"Matthews and New York City have been on a collision course since our founding in 2015,” Goss said. “At Matthews, we outhustle, outwork, and out desire our competitors, which is exactly what New York stands for. The opportunity this market brings is unlike anywhere else, which also goes for talent. While we respect the inherent challenges unique to this market, we plan to recruit the best in NYC commercial real estate to join us.”

Matthews has exponentially grown its presence through office openings and high-level recruiting. Founded in Los Angeles, Matthews grew to be one of the most powerful brokerage firms in the U.S. in just eight years. The brokerage has grown its footprint by at least 20% year-over-year since 2015.

“Starting in LA, we’ve opened an office in almost every major market on the West Coast, Southwest, Midwest, and Southeast,” president David Harrington said. “It was time for us to enter New York, the country's largest and most competitive real estate market. Our history has repeatedly shown that we enter a metro, take market share, and provide superior service to not only clients, but also to our agents.”
