Miami Real Estate Advisor Brings Athletic Background and Military Precision to Ultra-Luxury Market
Specialties
Education
A Miami native and former collegiate athlete, Alan Philipson brings competitive drive, discipline, and deep-rooted local knowledge to his role as a Luxury Real Estate Advisor with Compass. Specializing in luxury residences, waterfront estates, and discreet investment opportunities, Alan applies the same determination that fueled his athletic career to achieving outstanding results in one of the nation’s most competitive real estate markets.
Alan is a graduate of Florida State University with a B.S. in Criminology, where he developed investigative and analytical skills that now help him protect clients by identifying risk and preventing fraud in real estate transactions. His expertise extends beyond traditional sales, encompassing complex transactions such as 1031 exchanges, divorces, and trust and estate sales, where precision, discretion, and steady guidance are critical. Over his career, Alan has successfully represented a diverse clientele—including current and retired NFL, NBA, and NHL players—who trust him to handle their high-value transactions with confidentiality and care.
Alan’s leadership philosophy is rooted in family influence. His grandfather, Harold Turk, former Mayor of Miami Beach (1949–1951), instilled the values of civic responsibility and vision, while his father, a former Captain in the United States Air Force and accomplished Dentist, modeled discipline, integrity, and excellence. These lessons continue to shape Alan’s approach today.
For sellers who prioritize discretion, Alan leverages Compass’s Private Exclusive program—a marketing strategy that allows properties to be shared quietly within Compass’s nationwide network without creating a social media or public footprint. This unique approach safeguards client privacy while still connecting homes to a highly qualified pool of motivated buyers. Many of these properties while sold and closed, are not part of Alan's marketing material due to client confidentiality and propriety.
Respected for his integrity, competitive edge, and client-first mindset, Alan delivers a real estate experience built on trust, confidentiality, and world-class service. Whether representing a waterfront retreat, a modern condo, a legacy estate, or a professional athlete’s private residence, Alan offers unmatched expertise and the local insight only a lifelong Miami resident can provide.
