A New York spin-off of Selling Sunset has landed on Netflix and it's every bit as glamorous and drama-fuelled as its LA sibling – it also jumped to the platform's top 10 in the first week of its release.
Selling The City is proof that it doesn't matter who the agents are or what unattainable mansions they are selling, the format is a hit with fans. Luckily, the agents at Douglas Elliman, one of the largest brokerages in the US, make great TV too.
From Million Dollar Listing stars to complete reality TV newbies, a new generation of reality stars has arrived on Netflix. Here’s what you need to know about Taylor.
Who is Taylor Middleton?
Taylor Middleton Scavo grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, and attended Vanderbilt University, before moving to New York where she began her real estate career in 2013. After stints at Corcoran and Serhant (the brokerage from another Netflix series, Owning Manhattan), Taylor is currently a member of Eleanora Srugo's team with over $500 million (£398 million) in career sales.
Taylor now lives in the TriBeCa area of Manhattan. Discussing her love of the area, she told Tudum, 'It’s the best place to live, work, and play. It’s a neighbourhood known for its historic cobblestone streets, cast iron loft buildings, luxury real estate, and [it’s] recently become a cultural hub for art galleries.'
How old is Taylor Middleton?
Taylor's exact age is not known but it is likely that she is in her mid to late 30s, much like the other agents. She has also posted about friends she's had for '30+'years on her Instagram page.
Taylor Middleton's role in Selling The City
Taylor is one of the strongest agents at Douglas Elliman. She has been described as 'the Southern Belle dominating NYC’s luxury real estate scene'. Her client list includes CEOs, celebrities, and high-profile names who trust her expertise in finding the city’s most exclusive homes.
'Mornings are my time to recharge — coffee, workouts, and skincare are non-negotiables,' Taylor said. 'Once I’m ready, I give my all to my clients and work until my head hits the pillow.'
Is Taylor Middleton married?
Yes, Taylor is married to the investment banker Peter Scavo. They do not currently have any children and discuss their struggles with IVF on the show.
'It’s a lengthy process. It’s quite complicated and it is a journey. We’re still moving forward on the process,' Taylor told Us Weekly. 'There are just a few surgeries and procedures that need to happen before [IVF], so I would love to be able to speed it up. But I’m with the most amazing doctors and we’re so lucky to have the best resources here in the city.'
She added that watching some of her scenes back has been challenging. 'At the end of the day, you’re seeing a moment. But relationships and marriage [are] life. It mimics life. You have good days and you have bad days.”
What is Taylor Middleton's net worth?
It is thought that Taylor's net worth is at least $1 million (£798,000) given that she closed nearly $500 million (£399m) since starting at Douglas Elliman.
