Christie's International Real Estate
Drawing on their success and experience in the fine art world, Christie’s launched a visionary real estate marketing network designed to appeal to luxury home buyers and sellers around the world. Combining centuries of marketing expertise with hand-selected real estate brokerages intimately involved at the local level, Christie’s International Real Estate has become a global marketing powerhouse.
Currently, the Christie’s International Real Estate network counts 150 brokerages as members, ranging from boutique firms such as Walt Danley Realty, to multi-office firms in larger markets such as Paris, Southern California or Tokyo. Before becoming an affiliate, brokers are vetted using an extremely thorough evaluation process, taking great care to ensure each new member represents the high standards of other affiliate members and Christie’s.
This link to centuries-old Christie’s is important because Christie’s owns Christie’s International Real Estate. Sotheby’s, on the other hand, leases their name to a conglomerate based in New Jersey. Just as you would only buy fine art from a trusted source, your real estate transactions should also be handled with such in-house care and discretion.
Each member of Christie’s International Real Estate has access to marketing tools few other brokerages can match. Their website is an exclusive destination online and draws over a million hits per month from around the world. Properties on their site will also appear on the websites of The Wall Street Journal, Country Life, the Robb Report Exceptional Properties and Luxury Properties.
Published quarterly and viewed by approximately one million readers per year, the Christie’s International Real Estate magazine is mailed to a highly refined list of the world’s wealthiest homeowners, entrepreneurs, business leaders and celebrities. It is also available in private airport lounges, fashionable hotels and at Christie’s auctions around the globe.
Christie’s International Real Estate affiliates also have access to their Bespoke Marketing Program, in which the Christie’s team assists in the creation of advertisements for publication, property brochures, internet placement, video and press initiatives seeking local to international coverage. They also offer a Private Placement program, akin to Walt Danley Realty’s “Exclusive to WDR” listing service, in which your home will be discretely offered for sale amongst Christie’s top clients and select individuals according to their buying trends, lifestyle requirements and financial abilities.
Partnering with Christie’s International Real Estate allows us to maintain the high level of boutique real estate service and local expertise for which we are known, while exposing your home to a truly international audience. We are grateful for the exciting marketing opportunities they help us deliver to our clients.
