For Brendan Brown, real estate uniquely combines his passions of architecture, art, design, and fashion. At the age of 12, Brendan was carefully selecting stone slabs, floors, and design elements for his family’s property. At 18, he began his real estate career, and found himself not just selling the properties - but overseeing their renovation and design, too. After graduating magna cum laude from the University of Arizona and Chapman University (in Finance and Business Administration), his singular drive led him to establish his own brokerage at 23. This aesthetic discernment, combined with a pulse for the culturally resonant, fueled the success of his fashion and lifestyle blog, Mr. BGB. Before the age of 30, he had made a name for himself as a international tastemaker, given his own Huffington Post contributor panel, and was counted among the exclusive GQ, Mr. Porter, and Travel + Leisure Insiders. His collaboration with fashion lifestyle brands, close associations with celebrities, and natural magnetism led Page Six to name him one of New York City’s “Men About Town”. Brendan brings this connection to the cultural elite to his real estate business. A true curator, he is able to select not just the perfect property for each individual client, but to offer insider access to the rarest experiences. Famous for his discretion and foundational loyalty, he is the real estate agent of choice for many celebrities and cultural influencers. A Newport Beach native, Brendan Brown’s West Coast knowledge is roots-deep. In 2018, he expanded his expertise to include the East Coast, allying with firms like Douglas Elliman and Knight Frank. Returning to California in 2021, he partnered with the globally-renowned Westside Estate Agency and quickly ascended to represent prominent names in entertainment, sports, royalty, art, and technology. His bi-coastal deals include iconic buildings like New York’s Zaha Hadid Building and West Hollywood’s Sierra Tower. His further business in exclusive locales such as Los Angeles, Malibu, New York City, and his native Orange County…is merely his launching pad as he joins OFFICIAL X PRODIGY. Brendan’s curiosity and charisma have led him all over the world, 33 when last checked. He returns often to volunteer with wild lions at the African Wild Lion Conservation Project in South Africa. While championing many causes, he is one of four Founding Members and Chairs of the Young Professionals Committee of the Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation for Cancer Research. In 2023 he came a co-chair and co-host of the iconic Angel Ball. He is a designated SENTINEL for The Invictus Games, Prince Harry’s foundation for wounded veterans. He is also actively involved with amFAR and GLAAD fundraisers around the world. He currently resides in Los Angeles with his husband David and their dog Harry.
