Legacy Properties Sotheby’s International Realty attributes its success to offering its 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. “There is no substitution for the quality and quantity of support, marketing services, and tremendous referrals inherent as part of our unique network,” states Chris Fortunato, Chief Operating Officer. “We have developed unsurpassed new advertising programs with many publications, but none more so than our broadened exposure through the Wall Street Journal. It is extremely powerful,” adds Fortunato.
“Every January 1st, we start all over again looking to reach new highs, set new records, and continue to innovate and provide more for our clients. There has been a positive structural change in the way the world looks at Portland, specifically, and Maine, in general.
