“Our team of agents statewide has never been stronger, more professional, and committed to the collective success of our clients,” said Chris Lynch, President. “What is even more impressive is that we have been able to grow within our core markets and enter new markets while maintaining a commitment to excellence in all we do. The quality of our properties continues to be amazing at all price points and markets.”

Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty is also proud to report that it ranks as the #4 real estate company in Maine for all residential sales statewide. “Despite our growth, we have continued to enjoy a very high relative average sales price of $584,000 for our listings,” adds Lynch. “There is a greater understanding in the marketplace that we list and sell great properties at all prices. Our focus continues to be doing more for our clients in terms of service for our buyers and sellers, including delivering an incredible marketing plan which is second to none for our sellers. We have excelled in our ability to get our buyer clients in a position to succeed in a competitive market environment.”

Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty attributes its success to offering its listing clients a very strong package of marketing services including critical professional photography, 3D Virtual Tours, glossy print advertising, global property distribution through its exclusive network of agents, and luxury branding through its affiliation with Sotheby’s International Realty. “We have invested heavily in new marketing platforms and systems to ensure that we can get the maximum exposure for homes in our network,” states Chris Fortunato, Chief Operating Officer. “Our expanded relationship with the Wall Street Journal is just one great example of many exciting marketing venues we offer.”

“For the past couple of years, we have had to manage through a supply/demand imbalance in the early months of the year with many buyers chasing too few properties. It is during these times, that our buyers see very strong results by teaming up with a firm that carries the quality and quantity of inventory we provide at Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty,” Lynch concludes.
