LUXE AGENTS

We have distinct criteria for our agents: committed professionals exhibiting excellence, professionalism and a high degree of integrity. As a team, we put a great deal of effort into our small but bespoke company. We work full-time as real estate agents and strive to stay 'in the know' on the full spectrum of residential buildings as well as any notable changes in neighborhoods such as new developments, trendy restaurants, or even new museums and other noteworthy and interesting venues. Our agents frequently attend open houses to keep an eye on the market, understand comparative products and offerings and create a deep knowledge base for each listing we represent. Our mutual skills are heightened and honed for the benefit of our clients, be they buyers or sellers, landlords or tenants. Whether our clients are local, living across the United States, or international travelers, in our team they will find professional agents working together to provide them quality service.

Bios of our dedicated real estate professionals are below. In hiring agents, we look for differentiating qualities: hard working, discreet, willing to go above and beyond, empathetic and always attentive to the client's concerns.

LUXE SELLERS

Our extensive co-broking network gives us the opportunity to effectively and efficiently market our listings the same way larger firms do.  Being a boutique company does not in any way diminish our ability to promote your properties.

We also offer immediate national and international exposure on the internet; we sponsor frequent open houses and find unique and creative ways to bring attention to the properties we represent.

Our team also offers value-added services to our sellers such as staging services, oversight of repairs and small renovations projects, all of which vastly increase the marketing potential of your properties. Our customized sales programs are designed with each property's attributes, seller requirements and market conditions in mind.  We curate photo and video shoots for each of our listings and and let no detail go unchecked; our thoughtful marketing materials, frequent email blasts, staffed open houses and local/international real estate outreach efforts all enhance your property visibility and exposure on multiple web platforms..
