As our first year in Dubai comes to a close, we review a highly successful period and look forward to the future.
This past week marked one year since Christie’s International Real Estate Dubai opened its doors. At the time, we spoke with pride at the prospect of becoming part of Christie’s rich heritage. Founded in 1766, Christie’s has more than 250 years of unparalleled expertise, being renowned for its expert live and online auctions, private sales, art appraisal and financing, and international luxury real estate services the world over. Launching in Dubai meant we became the Middle East’s sole purveyor of Christie’s esteemed luxury real estate arm and joined an international network of more than 950 offices in 48 countries and territories. This enabled us to offer our clients bespoke global access to the most exclusive marketplaces.
In the words of Jackie Johns, Managing Partner alongside Dinesh Chhatwani at Christie’s International Real Estate Dubai, “This is a one-of-a-kind brand in a one-of-a-kind city.” We are delighted to inform you that the intervening year has only strengthened the bond between Christie’s International Real Estate and Dubai. Our ethical approach and wealth of regional and international property experience have helped us become one of the U.A.E.’s most trusted agencies. In this first year, we are proud to have achieved a gamut of significant milestones and have laid out plans that augur well for the future:
1. REAL ESTATE RECORD
We concluded the largest single sale real estate transaction in the luxury sector for 2021, earning a noteworthy record for Dubai’s property market. Working alongside OCTA Properties LLC, which represented the buyer, an iconic luxury residential property was sold for an undisclosed value. This is a common practice at Christie’s International Real Estate Dubai we ensure discretion and confidentiality are maintained at all times.
2. A RECORD-SETTING TEAM
We are fortunate to have expanded our client agent and advisor team, recruiting meticulous and approachable individuals with years of experience in local and international property markets. Our multinational team speaks a variety of languages and is committed to a superior standard of quality with accurate and up-to-date insights. This ensures clients gain the best opportunities the market can offer. This unwavering dedication has yielded positive results this past year, 60% of our team achieved their personal best sales records, a harbinger of a fruitful future.
3. NEW OFFICES
2022 will see the opening of a new branch of Christie’s International Real Estate Dubai in the World Trade Centre, at the beating heart of Dubai’s financial activities. This will allow us to widen our availability for discerning clients and add to our comprehensive market coverage. We are also in the early stages of planning a third location, a bespoke office in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). Both are expected to further our status as one of the U.A.E.’s most refined and reliable agencies.
With our decades of experience dealing with distinguished residences and dedication to discretion and clients’ needs, Christie's International Real Estate Dubai guarantees exceptional services. Get in touch with a member of our team to see the difference our experience makes.
