Who are the world's top real estate brokers?

Who are the world's top real estate brokers?
Published by: anonym 2010-03-16

Welcome to:zjrp.com

I would like you to identify the world's top real estate brokers. Specifically, I am looking for a list of real estate brokers who cater to the world's wealthiest people and handle the most expensive properties. The list you provide will be used to develop a mailing list for a marketing campaign. I don't need a whole lot of commentary, but I do need mailing addresses (or links that include mailing addresses). I am more focused on identifying the top real estate agencies than the top individual brokers, although either would work for my purposes. The list should be truly global - every continent should be represented. Please be sure to include brokers from obvious hangouts of the wealthy (e.g., Monaco). Within the U.S., I am looking for a list that is national (includes high-end brokers from across the country). When you are doing the U.S. part of the search, please be sure to identify at least five premier firms from New York City and five from Boston. It is not important to me that the list be exactly right, in a scientific sense. I don't, for instance, need a rank ordered list of the globe's premier 100 real estate brokers (though if you happened to find such a list, I think you would have answered the question). I do need names and contact information for at least 30 firms that are plausible, in terms of being well established in this niche. Please don't hesitate to ask for clarification.

Thank you for the nice rating, and please excuse me for not specifying my search strategy, which I should have done as a matter of course. I tried a variety of terms, but the most productive Google search was simply "luxury real estate" either as a stand alone term, or in combination with a geographic name like Paris or Japan. I also used the Google directory for international real estate companies: http://directory.google.com/Top/Business/Real_Estate/International_Companies/?il=1 One last thing: at the site below you can order a book called "Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate". If I'm reading things right, it's only $25, which looks to be quite a bargain, and just the right resource for your work: http://www.luxuryrealestate.com/book.html Hope your brother's doing OK here in Washington. All the best.

Hello again Natalie, Glad to hear the preliminary list looked good. Yep. DC has come to a complete halt with one of the largest 1-day snowstorms on record. We have about three feet in front of our house, plus two more feet that slid off the roof, so to get out the front door is a bit like that old movie, The Great Escape. But we stocked up on candy and videos, so life is good (almost "luxurious" you might say). Here's some additions to the list. Middle East pickings are still a bit thin, but there's not much out there that's public information (and for some strange reason, Boston is kind of the same way -- something to do with the Brahmins, I suppose!). Let me know, though, if you want me to look for any areas of the world in more detail. I'm happy to take a crack at it.

Thank you, pafalafa! Super speedy, and just what I needed. One last thing - Can you please describe your search strategy, in case I decide to expand the list? Thanks again, Natalie

Hello Natalie, Well, with almost three feet of snow here in Washington DC, I've had some extra time today to research your question. My listing of luxury real estate brokers is below, but I'd like to start first with three items of importance: 1. Very few firms turned up from Japan and other Asian countries, or from South America. I will keep looking for these tomorrow, and post more if I find them. 2. I didn't want to force the NYC, Boston thing -- I've included some of the top luxury firms for each city, as well as for other areas like the Hamptons, and Cape Cod. If you feel there aren't enough representative listings for these two cities, just let me know. 3. This question is not finished until you are satisfied with the results. If there are any shortcomings in what I have provided you, please use the Request for Clarification button to let me know what more I can do, before rating this answer.

Hello Natalie, I'm happy to work on this for you, and I just have a quick question. Many of the larger luxury brokers have subsidiaries around the world. Do you want me to list just the headquarters operations, or the key sub-offices as well? The reason I ask is, for a luxury broker like Sotheby's International Realty, listing their sub-offices alone -- which are all over the world -- will get you pretty much the 30-odd addresses you're looking for. I'm guessing you want more diversity than that in the answer, and I'd appreciate whatever guidance you can give me as to how best achieve it. Thanks.

Hi Pafalafa, Good work! The way you set up the answer (as a mailing list) is perfect. 1. Yes, I am looking for a diverse group of companies - I view an outfit like Sotheby's as one operation. So I am glad to see many different firms. 2. Can you get any more listings for the Middle East? I see one listing for Israel. Can you identify any firms that cater to wealthy Arabs? 3. I would like to see at least five premier firms from each of New York City and Boston. 4. Can you find just a couple more from Paris? One more pass at it, be sure to do #3, and I'll give you five stars! Meanwhile, is Washington totally paralyzed? My brother took his kids there for the school vacation week, intending to do all the museums, etc. Sounds to me like they may be seeing a lot of their hotel.

One last thing. As I was shutting down the many windows I had open from researching your question, I got curious about something, clicked a few links, and wound up here: http://www.luxury-realestate.com/conference/minutes_sept02.html It's the notes from a 2002 conference on luxury real estate. Some incredibly -- well, I won't use the word I was thinking of, but let's just say -- *detailed* person wrote down everything everyone said, including their names and firms they work for, and what price homes they've been selling, etc. It seemed to be all U.S. names, but you may want to mine these contacts for your list.
