Christie’s International has launched in New South Wales, granting a 10-year licence to new CEO Scott Michaelson, co-founder of real estate services platform Smile Elite.
Michaelson has more than 25 years’ experience in real estate investment and is joined by a leadership team and specialist agents operating in key regions across the state.
As an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, the New South Wales business will offer national and international exposure to buyers, exclusive marketing partnerships, and a direct link with Christie’s auction house for the referral and sale of art and luxury goods.
Helena Moyas de Forton, managing director, EMEA and APAC of Christie’s International Real Estate said “New South Wales is the heartbeat of the Australian luxury property market and an important destination for us as we continue to grow our brand and network across Asia-Pacific.”
Christie’s International Real Estate has more than 450 offices, and more than 10,000 agents across more than 50 countries. In Australia, the brand has established offices in Victoria, Western Australia and South Australia.
