Plain Sailing on the Atlantic Seaboard
Category News
Boasting some of the most valuable homes in SA, the Atlantic Seaboard has gained international renown in recent years as a glittering playground for the ultra-rich and really famous, including Hollywood superstars and billionaire business tycoons from all over the word.
And the properties they buy here, as well as the prices they pay, are the subjects of countless media reports and seemingly insatiable public interest, because they are the “stuff of dreams” for most homebuyers. After all, who wouldn’t want to own a mansion on Nettleton Road, or a glamorous seafront apartment in Bantry Bay, or a fabulous modern penthouse in Green Point?
The fact is, though, that there is a limited global pool of potential buyers for these homes, and owners who are serious about selling their Atlantic Seaboard properties know that the key is to reach as many of these high net worth individuals as possible.
Which is where our new Luxury Portfolio division comes in. As an affiliate of the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World© and a member of its global luxury real estate programme, this division has the best access of any SA real estate company to the world’s wealthiest property investors.
The high-end real estate brokers who make up the Luxury Portfolio International© network are collectively able to showcase luxury property investments to more than three-million billionaires and multi-millionaires globally – and between them sell more than US$44-billion worth of exclusive properties a year.
This is already proving to be an exciting prospect for sellers along the Atlantic Seaboard, where we have already garnered more than 40 mandates for multi-million rand properties.
However, the Luxury Portfolio division of Chas Everitt International takes things even further, by giving our high net worth property buyers and sellers access to a bespoke service provided by their own “personal property expert” – a single individual who is knowledgeable about all aspects of international real estate transactions and will also assist them to identify and evaluate suitable investments, meet the different legal, tax and financial requirements they may encounter, and save them time and inconvenience by negotiating on their behalf with other brokers, lawyers, administrators or rental managers.
These experts will also be able to provide detailed information about the areas most favoured by high-end investors – such as the suburbs of the Atlantic Seaboard - introduce them to the lifestyle benefits associated with these areas and assist them with relocation if necessary.
There is no other service like this currently available in the SA real estate sector and we have absolutely no doubt that it will be a winner, especially among overseas buyers who will welcome having a single point of contact to assist them with their purchases in SA.
