A major real estate developer is considering cutting ties with the brokerage co-founded by Oren Alexander as fallout spreads from sexual assault allegations against the agent.

The firm, Official, is overseeing sales at 888 Brickell, a 90-story building in Miami being developed with Dolce & Gabbana. But the company behind the project, JDS Development Group, has been weighing its options since the allegations became public, according to a person familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified citing private information.
