WELCOME TO THE ROFFERS REAL ESTATE REPORT

Chad Roffers — Wed, 26 May 2010 16:44:01 +0000

In a time of unprecedented challenges in the luxury real estate market, many buyers, sellers, lenders, brokers, and other interested parties are craving unbiased and objective market insight.

That is what you will find in my newly launched Roffers Real Estate Report.

The Roffers Real Estate Report offers practical solutions that will help you cut through the clutter and achieve your objectives—whether you’re buying, selling, or just looking to become more informed about the luxury real estate market.

The Roffers Real Estate Report will cast a wide net that covers many topics. Future entries will include insight on how to best transact in the luxury real estate market in today’s economic environment. Posts will also examine the latest trends in luxury real estate, analyze breaking news in a usable context, and cover the growing use of luxury real estate auctions.

Just a few words about my background, and why you can have confidence in what you read here:

I am currently a luxury real estate advisor to sellers, buyers, brokers, and lenders worldwide including a number of Fortune 500 companies. Before launching the Roffers Real Estate Report, I was president and co-founder of SKY Sotheby’s International Realty in Sarasota, Florida and Minneapolis from 2004 through 2008. Less than three years after launching SKY Sotheby’s, I grew the firm to a team of 50 real estate professionals, who collectively generated more than $500 million in annual sales by utilizing innovative marketing strategies and state-of-the-art technology to bring efficiency and transparency to the real estate brokerage process.

Prior to that, I spearheaded business development for US WEST (now Qwest), serving as the company’s negotiator of high-level partnerships and investments, including groundbreaking transactions with AOL Time Warner, Yahoo, AT&T, and Palm Computing. I began my career with Cendant (now Realogy), one of the foremost providers of real estate services in the world.

Based on my travels in the last few weeks it sure seems like the stock market dip has really put the brakes on buyer sentiment. #
