Concierge Auctions, the world record holder for luxury homes sold at auction, is pleased to announce that John Christie of HG Christies Ltd, in the Bahamas has been named as a founding member of its Agent Advisory Board.
This group of esteemed top agents and brokers, who together have billions of dollars in luxury sales from across the globe, represent a think tank on the state of luxury real estate sales and marketing. The board meets quarterly to share insights and guide Concierge Auctions particularly with its relationship to the brokerage community, with a focus on agent-specific education, tools, and technology.
John Christie is the President and Managing Broker of HG Christie Ltd, the Bahamas’ oldest real estate company, founded in 1922. John joined as a third-generation realtor in 1993 and spearheaded the creation of a website for the company, making it the first local real estate firm to go online. Today, HGChristie.com has more than 5,000 listings and has garnered several awards. John is a fully-licensed real estate broker and has served as Director of the Bahamas Real Estate Association (BREA). He is currently overseeing HG Christie’s continuing expansion with eight offices in all of the important locations in The Bahamas.
“We are thrilled to welcome John to the Advisory Board and honored that he is willing to share his insights with us,” said Laura Brady, President of Concierge Auctions. “In our business, information and relationships are everything, and each of the agents and brokers selected represent the best of the best in not only their marketplaces but also the world over.”
“Concierge Auctions provides our company with a huge competitive advantage giving us the ability to offer our motivated sellers the option to "Sell Now" with a set time frame, super professional global marketing, and the ability to control their own sales process,” said John Christie.
The first meeting of the Advisory Board took place earlier this year at the Montage Los Cabos in Cabos San Lucas, Mexico. By sharing their collective wisdom, these real estate leaders will become a resource for agents and brokers who are seeking information on the auction process. Board members serve as ambassadors on behalf of Concierge Auctions in their communities as well as at industry events.
“Our first meeting was highly productive,” added Chad Roffers, Chairman of Concierge Auctions. “Already we have an exciting list of new ideas to implement and we look forward to continuing to refine our luxury marketplace as a resource for sellers on a fixed timeline.”
