Dearest Readers,
Just when you thought the tea kettle was empty, here we go again! The saga of the Alexander brothers is the talk of the town, and it's no wonder why. Once hailed as the golden trio of high-end real estate, Oren, Tal, and Alon Alexander are now embroiled in scandals that make even the juiciest gossip seem tame.
The Glittering Rise
Our story begins in the sunny paradise of Miami, where the Alexander brothers were groomed for greatness by their father, Shlomi Alexander, a developer of luxurious spec homes. With a foundation built on charm, sharp business acumen, and a Rolodex full of celebrity clients, the trio moved to New York City, ready to make their mark on the luxury real estate market.
In 2012, they co-founded the Alexander Team at Douglas Elliman and quickly became the go-to brokers for the ultra-wealthy. Their big break came in 2019 with the sale of a $240 million penthouse at 220 Central Park South to hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin—the most expensive home ever sold in the U.S. at the time.
By 2022, Oren and Tal had left Douglas Elliman to start their own brokerage, Official, alongside former colleagues. Official quickly became the darling of the luxury real estate world, handling high-profile projects and racking up millions in sales. Celebrities from Adam Neumann to Timbaland trusted their property needs to the Alexander brothers.
The Dark Underbelly
But behind the glittering façade lay a world steeped in excess and scandal. The Alexander brothers were notorious fixtures in the nightlife scenes of Miami and New York, with their escapades regularly documented by Page Six and even The New York Times.
The first cracks appeared in March 2023, when two women filed lawsuits accusing Oren and Alon of rape. The allegations were chilling, detailing drugging, assault, and intimidation. One woman claimed she was assaulted at Sir Ivan’s Castle in the Hamptons, while another said the twins took turns raping her in their Chelsea apartment.
As if this weren't enough, a third lawsuit in June 2023 accused Tal and Alon of sexual assault, with Oren allegedly coordinating and witnessing the attack. The sordid details included drugging, groping, and violent rape, casting a dark shadow over the Alexander legacy.
The Aftermath
With allegations piling up, Official quickly distanced itself from the brothers. Oren's bio was scrubbed from the company’s website, and his real estate licenses deactivated. Tal soon followed, announcing a leave of absence. High-profile projects severed ties with Official, leaving the brokerage in jeopardy.
Nearly 30 more women have come forward with similar allegations, painting a grim picture of the brothers' behavior over the years. The FBI has even launched a probe into the allegations, indicating the severity of the situation. The DMs I've received from victims only reinforce the gravity of the accusations!
The Real Story Behind the Facade
The Alexanders' story is a stark reminder that all that glitters is not gold. Behind their polished veneer lay a troubling pattern of abuse, deceit, and moral bankruptcy. Their rise to the top was not just about hard work and savvy deals but also about a carefully curated image that masked their true nature.
Like Candace Miller, their Instagram feeds were a highlight reel of luxurious living—private jets, opulent parties, and glamorous holidays. But as we’ve seen time and again, social media often hides more than it reveals. The Alexanders’ lives, much like their properties, were built on shaky foundations.
The Inevitable Crash
The fallout from this scandal will be felt for years to come, not just by the Alexanders but by everyone who trusted them, worked with them, or aspired to be like them. It’s a sobering reminder of the real cost of living a double life and the inevitable crash that follows.
Final Thoughts
As legal proceedings unfold and more details come to light, one thing is certain: the Alexander brothers' legacy is forever tarnished. Their story serves as a cautionary tale of how quickly fortunes can change and reputations can be destroyed. For now, the real estate world watches, waits, and wonders just how deep this scandal goes.
