Engel & Volker’s Newport Beach hit Orange County in September 2010 claiming to be a truly international real estate brokerage with over 420 shops in 37 countries spanning six continents. Their ever so catchy strap line “List Local, Sell Global” caught the attention of many a home owner in Newport Beach but the real question begged – just how different Kim Markham can it be?
“Having the ability to list our local properties globally to over 400 shops is truly unique, however there is more to it than that,” said Ray Hogan, license partner.“We want to use this global network to truly showcase our local properties, through attending International Road shows in conjunction with our overseas partners.”
Engel & Volker’s Newport Beach launch at the Luxury Property Show, Beijing, China
No sooner said than Engel & Volker’s Newport Beach has announced their attendance at the Luxury Property Show 2010, Beijing, China this month. Kim Markham, associate Realtor with EVNPB has travelled to The Luxury Property Show, which is one of the most elite and sophisticated trade events in the field of luxury properties and development in China.
“The event is purely dedicated to individuals who share a desire for the finer things in life, and also for those who are in the industry of providing such comforts, it provides the perfect platform for exhibitors and property collectors to gather in one place and satisfy their desires,” Markham said.
Engel & Volker’s Newport Beach have various events planned whilst in China, including a two day property show and participating in seminars, a gala cocktail, on-site meetings, online and print promotion,” Markham said. “These events are a fantastic opportunity to meet new friends but more importantly to discover the trends of a foreign buyer. China is one of the biggest markets in
the world now, if not the biggest and it’s incredibly exciting to forge new relationships and find out just what they are looking for in an overseas property investment.”
Hogan says to look out for many more road shows in 2011 and beyond. “Through technology the world has become a smaller place, however there will never be a substitute for face to face contact, the personal touch and traditional values when conducting a deal and that is why I find it part of my every day life to be talking to buyers globally,” he adds.
The Luxury Property Show is an invitation-only event that attracts a highly targeted audience of high-end property buyers. High net worth individuals, CEOs and entrepreneurs, wealthy Chinese who have emigrated abroad, or willing to emigrate. Affluent expatriates living in Beijing and corporate investors seeking overseas opportunities.
