This week Steve and I spoke with Pam O’Connor, President and CEO of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, the largest real estate network, with over 550 independent real estate firms producing $225 billion in annual sales in over 30 countries. Pam was named one of the top 25 thought leaders by NAR, as well as one of the top 100 most influential people in Real Estate by Inman News. We were a founding member of Leading RE and we thought it would be a good idea to talk about the advantages this powerful network gives buyers and sellers. Pam likes to think of Leading RE as an“un-franchise”, they provide technology, online exposure, marketing and branding assistance, education and referral generation without the national branding. While Leading RE handles all price points, Luxury Portfolio International is the marketing showcase for million dollar plus properties. Comprised of the country’s top independent local and regional brokerages, Luxury Portfolio International is truly the leader in high- end real estate with over 15,000 luxury properties on their award winning website. They are the largest real estate advertiser in the Wall Street Journal, and have a marketing presence in many high net worth publications such as Architectural Digest and The Du Pont Registry. This week’s Real Estate Insight: Luxury Portfolio affiliates dominated sales in 40 of Real Trends top 100 markets in the US last year, so when you work with a Leading RE/Luxury Portfolio member, you know you are working with a top company with a great network behind them. Leading Real Estate Companies of the World!
