LUXURY PORTFOLIO: LUXURY HOME AND LUXURY REAL ESTATE FAQ

1. What is a Luxury Home?

Luxury Home Definition

A luxury home or luxury real estate is generally defined as a property priced within the top 5-10% of a given real estate market. In most markets that is a home of value of more then one million dollars ($2-3 million in a few select markets) and/or a home that may have a unique quality or distinct feature that makes it stand out in the luxury home and luxury real estate marketing arena.

2. How do I list my home on Luxury Portfolio?

Luxury real estate and luxury homes can be listed on the Luxury Portfolio website by listing your home with the Luxury Portfolio member in your market. See a list of our Luxury Portfolio brokers. The Luxury Portfolio Fine Property Collection™ is an exclusive listing resource for brokers that are members of the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World™, therefore not affiliated with a national franchise. You can read more about the network at www.leadingre.com.

As Luxury Portfolio is a comprehensive branding program with extensive offline and online marketing tools, there is not an option to solely add listings to the site. Should you wish to inquire about membership with the LeadingRE network, please contact us at support@luxuryportfolio.com.

They will be happy to assist you. If you are unsure about your destination market or are considering multiple markets and would like to begin your search by talking with a Luxury Portfolio representative, contact Client Care.
