Number One in Maine for Waterfront Sales in 2021

Maine Real Estate (February 2022) – Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty, with offices in Portland, Kennebunk, Brunswick, Damariscotta, Camden, and Northeast Harbor, announced today that it again retained the #1 ranking for 2021 waterfront property sales in Maine. The company reported that it sold more Maine waterfront properties than any other real estate company in the state based on total dollar sales volume. Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty closed 354 transaction sides on waterfront properties, totaling over $430 million in property value.

“Maine, with its spectacular Atlantic coastline, is just the starting point for us. There are also 6,000 lakes and ponds that offer incredible lifestyle properties,” said Chris Lynch, President. “This has been an area of growth for us in recent years. Our sales volume was nearly 25% higher this year than last, breaking another record for us. We continue to sell more properties for more money than any other real estate company in Maine, and the market has rewarded us with a constant flow of terrific new listings to feed our strong buyer client base.”

Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty also plans to continue its expansion into Maine’s Lakes Region. The company sees a growth opportunity for sellers looking to get more regional, national, and international exposure when selling their homes. “We hear from prospective sellers looking to increase the exposure of their special homes” said Lynch. “In addition to our global network, we have fortified our presence with gorgeous marketing pieces and an expansive social media network.”

Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty attributes its success to offering clients a very strong package of marketing services, including extraordinary professional photography, Matterport 3D Virtual Tours, glossy print advertising, global property distribution through their exclusive network of agents, and luxury branding through their affiliation with Sotheby’s International Realty. The company is composed of very experienced and professional agents who provide exceptional service, touch, and personalized attention to their clients. According to Lynch, “Our agents want to be at the showings so they can sell the property and its unique features and lifestyle attributes. Combining personal service with beautiful properties in great locations throughout Maine continues to be a winning strategy for us.”

“While we have enjoyed the #1 ranking in sold waterfront properties for several years, we also secured the #1 ranking for all Maine properties sold for $600,000 or more,” Lynch concludes. “We are engaged in many aspects of the market, not exclusively oceanfront and lakefront properties. Our focus is to offer distinctive properties at all prices and to present them in a way that buyers, regardless of where they begin their search, can find our listings and gather enough relevant information to make the important decisions of whether to proceed with a showing and ultimately submit an offer to purchase a property. We know that if we create the most buyer-friendly process with the best inventory of properties for sale, then all of our clients will be well-served.”
