Each was asked and spoke of their success by Moderator Alex Vidal, President of RelatedISG International Realty. Most importantly for the industry insiders, brokers and agents in attendance that filled the event space to capacity, the panelists gave their tips on how to market and engage higher-priced listings and clients that come with it.

Queen of New York real estate Dolly Lenz emphasized how important it is to know and relate to a high net worth client, saying, "Read The Wall Street Journal. Know what's going on in politics; in business; where the pitfalls are, so you can share that with them. I think that's key." Her daughter, Jenny Lenz, joined her mother four years ago at Dolly Lenz Real Estate, learning about the best from the best, and brought that knowledge into the panel.

Cody Vichinsky, Founding Partner at Bespoke Real Estate, focuses his company on $10+ million listings only with an in-house team of agents and staff that tailor their listings' marketing, such as Burnt Point in The Hamptons. "We look at the market very focused in the high luxury market. We have no independent agents, so our model is entirely different from a conventional brokerage business. It's more dynamic."

Olivia Hsu Decker, Co-owner of Golden Gate Sotheby's International Realty, which encompasses over two dozen offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, hit the target as she described the luxury real estate world. "Our business is a people business," she said.

Jay Parker, CEO of Douglas Elliman Florida Brokerage, addressed the luxury market in Miami compared to other cosmopolitan cities. "You look at luxury (real estate) in other cities compared to Miami and you find that our price points (in Miami) are pretty attractive".

Michael Goldstein, President of The Trump Group, highlighted the migration to South Florida from the north as he oversees sales of The Estates at Acqualina. " 75% of our business is coming from New York," he said.

Ben Bacal, a leader in the Los Angeles real estate and creator of the Rila app, gave his expertise on the LA market. "Since 2017-2018, properties in Hillcrest have gone down in price to where they need to be. We see an uptick in international buyers. I want to teach my agents to be powerhouses in each of their market and become power agents in those areas. "

One of New York’s most successful brokers of apartments and townhouses, Richard Steinberg held nothing back as he compared and contrasted the buyers and sellers in the lower-priced and higher-priced markets. "Every seller thinks they charge too little. Every buyer thinks they pay too much,” he said. “But they buy it because they want it. My advice to people (brokers) is to go for the big stuff because it's much harder to sell the small stuff," encouraging the live audience and those that watched the live stream on Instagram to reach higher.

Sue Nickason, based in the Cayman Islands and Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Dart Real Estate, had a unique insight on the small island “tax haven”. "Our sweet spot is beach, beach, beach,” she said. “We have a brokerage that did the most sales in the Cayman Islands last year, just shy of $100 million."

On the influence of technology in the luxury real estate market, Dolly Lenz said, "I think it's playing a small role. I find it to be hyped at the moment. In five years, applications will really change how we do business."

Mary Ann Osborn, Leading Broker at Century City, followed on that, "The older people come in through signage on the property and require you to hand-hold them through the process," about the extra personal touch that comes when selling luxury real estate, particularly to people that are not as engaged with technology as younger generations.

A long round of applause was given to the panelists at the end, many who had traveled from far to participate in the Summit.

The post Introducing Outpost, A Unique Luxury Rental And Curated Art And Design Experience in Hollywood Hills appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

According to the deed filed with the county and accessed on Property Shark, Mr. DiCaprio closed on the home in March using a trust. He has numerous high-end properties, most of which are rented out, in the Los Angeles area. Seller Moby took two years to rehab the 4,644-square-foot, 1920’s manor-style home which is referred by listing agents, Patrick Martin and Gwen Banta of Sotheby’s International Realty as “Moby’s Los Feliz Masterpiece.” The rehab, while well done, is nothing spectacular. White walls, a white kitchen and light wood flooring are offset by stonework and bean pool outside. The property sits on a quarter-acre lot in hillside neighborhood of Central L.A. behind a thicket of trees and hedges.

Courtesy www.sothebyshomes.com

DiCaprio has proven to be a voracious real estate investor and his properties range from high-end New York condos to suburban LA area family homes. The property was on the market for only a few weeks when he snapped it up in March. Moby paid $3.4 million for it two year prior. According to the Los Angeles Times, the actor purchased the home for a family member and won’t be living there. Lucky family member.

DiCaprio seems to collect homes like he does supermodels’ phone numbers. A few of the prized pieces in his property portfolio include a Hollywood Hills compound he purchased in 1994 for $4 million (it’s actually two side-by-side properties, one of which was purchased from Madonna for $2 million) and which he has rented to actor pals.

A beach bungalow was purchased in 1998 for $1,775,000. The modest three-bedroom two-bath home with 1,765 square feet also has a deck, hot tub and views of the Pacific. The actor listed the home in September for $10.95 million before trimming a million off the price and then taking it off the market deciding to use it as a rental.

He also owns a Battery Park condo, which he first purchased in 2008 for $3.67 million and then the unit next door in 2014 for $8 million. "Riverhouse, One Rockefeller Park," 2 River Terrace in Battery Park is a building filled with eco- and health-conscious amenities. Filtered water, air, a yoga studio and more have seen fellow celebs like Tyra Banks and Oliver Stone take up residence.

The 43 year-old A-Lister also has a 7.022 square-foot Palm Springs pad, which he purchased in 2014 for $5.2 million. It’s old-school Hollywood glam: Built in 1964, the six-bedroom, seven-and-a-half bathroom spread had a guesthouse, pool, gym, tennis court and mountain views. It’s currently a vacation rental priced at $3,750/night.

By far the most impressive piece of real estate in the DiCaprio portfolio is one of his cheapest. He purchased an island near Belize in 2005 for $1.75 million. Blackadore Caye is being developed along with partner Paul Scialla, into an eco-friendly resort and is due to open this year. Initial renderings show it to be top-notch luxury. But the place will serve more than Michelin-rated food. The idea in buying the island was to preserve its ecosystem.

"We don’t want to just do less harm or even have zero impact, but to actually help heal the island, to make it better than before," Scialla told the New York Times. A worthy cause, at a lofty price.

The post House Flipping Hollywood Style — Serial Investor, Leo DiCaprio Buys Moby’s Transformed Home appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

Famed for her role as Gabrielle in the hit series Desperate Housewives as well as her own show Telenovela, Longoria first listed the estate earlier this year after purchasing it in 2006 for $3.6 million.

The 8,603-square-foot home sprawls on three floors, which include six bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The main living spaces – a full kitchen and an expansive living/dining room with two fireplaces – make up the second level.

Upstairs, another fireplace rests in the master suite, which also features a steam shower, a jetted tub and walk-in closets. The ground floor provides Hollywood-style entertainment with a wet bar and a home theatre. The property, fenced by a lush hedge and surrounded by vistas of the nearby mountains, also boasts a plunge pool and a spa.

The Hollywood Hills house is the third property Longoria is selling in the last year and a half, Mansion Global reported. Her real estate portfolio, however, is far from deflating. In late 2017, Longoria bought a contemporary residence in Beverly Crest for $13.5 million.

Her real estate deals are not the sole engagements that have kept the actress, who is expecting her first child, busy. In early May, she hosted the second Women’s Empowerment Luncheon and Speakers Panel to raise funds for Eva Longoria Foundation and Global Gift Foundation USA – only days after her star-studded baby shower.
