“Abaco has come back extremely strong since Hurricane Dorian struck in 2019 and our market activity across all cays is a reflection of that,” said Rademaker. “Buyer activity has been off the charts, visitors and residents have returned at record-breaking numbers and nearly two-thirds of pre-existing businesses have reopened or have been rebuilt with new business and development projects in the pipeline.”

A longstanding member of the administrative team at Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty, both in the Abaco and Nassau office, Key’s marketing, research and analytical skills are key components of her client service strategy.

 “My exposure to both the Abaco and Nassau real estate markets over the past several years as a marketer and an administrator has given me the opportunity to really dig in and study both markets and build very methodical and targeted strategy for my clients,” Key said. “Although my focus is now mainly on the Abaco market, my consistent exposure to the company’s top-producing agents for more than half a decade has given me an advantage when launching my own business.”

A seventh generation Abaconian and a longstanding resident of Hope Town , Caroline’s family has deep roots in The Bahamas. Her parents built and grew Turtle Hill Villas and On Da Beach Bar & Grill, a popular destination on Elbow Cay, which gave her an early introduction to the tourism industry, customer service, and conducting business in The Bahamas.

“The international reach and recognition of the Sotheby’s International Realty brand combined with my local ties, business connections  and knowledge of and love for the stunning Abaco Cays will expand and elevate the level of service I am able to provide for my clients,” Key said.

“We are excited to welcome Caroline to our Abaco sales team, ” Rademaker added. “The Bahamas is a premier destination for investors from all over the world and we are committed to meeting the needs of our international high-net-worth clients.

Sotheby’s International Realty Achieves Historic Year With Record $204 Billion In Global Sales Volume

Sotheby’s International Realty is pleased to announce that its global network achieved a record US$204 billion in 2021 global sales volume, a 36% increase in sales growth year over year, as U.S. cities saw a resurgence of interest following the pandemic and sales activity in secondary and resort markets around the world remained strong. The brand’s U.S. sales volume grew by 33.8% year over year, significantly outpacing NAR’s national increase of 20.6% from the prior year,¹ underscoring the brand’s leadership in the high-end market.

“Real estate proved to be a hot investment in 2021,” said Philip White, president and CEO of Sotheby’s International Realty. “Once again, agents affiliated with Sotheby’s International Realty outperformed the industry average and achieved record-breaking home sales as buyers continued to depend on their trusted expertise to navigate a constrained market.”

Reinvigorated Interest in Cities and Continued Strength in Secondary Markets Fueled Sales

The Sotheby’s International Realty® brand’s existing presence in major metropolitan and resort markets around the world ensured the brand was well-prepared to meet the renewed interest in cities and the sustained boom of secondary home markets.

Interest in U.S. cities such as New York, Miami, San Francisco, and Austin returned to pre-pandemic levels and helped trigger record-breaking sales. Other U.S. cities, such as Atlanta, Houston, and Los Angeles, also saw strong performances in 2021.

With remote and hybrid work models influencing buyer behavior in 2021, secondary markets and resort areas continued to produce high demand and increased prices. In the U.S., areas such as Florida, Hawaii, and Colorado saw record performances. Globally, second home markets in Australia, Spain, and Switzerland and resort areas in the Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Turks & Caicos, and Puerto Rico achieved notable growth and record sales.

As buyers continued to prioritize properties that offered more space and land, states with no income tax such as Florida, Texas, and Wyoming offered added appeal, while the Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Switzerland, Hong Kong, and Singapore remained popular for their favorable tax structures and saw significant gains.

An Award-Winning Year for the Brand’s Innovative Technology and Offerings

Sotheby’s International Realty continued to lead the industry with its technology and marketing efforts. Sothebysrealty.com saw more than 46 million visitors in 2021, a 25% increase year-over-year and the most visits to the website in its history. The site was also named Best Real Estate Website in the People’s Choice Category in the 25th Annual Webby Awards, recognizing the brand’s efforts to introduce translations in 14 languages, nearly 60 currency conversions, and a mobile-first approach to emphasize the method in which today’s clients are buying and selling homes.

Property videos, which exploded in popularity during the 2020 lockdown, have continued to trend as more buyers start the initial viewing process online. Videos produced by Sotheby’s International Realty agents were played nearly 90 million times – a 50% increase year-over-year.

Sotheby’s International Realty was also awarded the honor of 2021 Top Luxury Brokerage by Inman, the industry’s leading source of real estate information. The prestigious award is a testament to the brand’s achievements in luxury marketing, record-breaking sales, and high-quality service.

“Buyers continue to rely on virtual technology to make their homebuying process more convenient,” said Chief Marketing Officer, Bradley Nelson. “As a brand, we have always sought out to establish the highest standard for marketing luxury properties and I am proud that our marketing and technology investments have been recognized as the ‘best’ in the industry in 2021.”

Fortifying a Strong Network with Global Growth

During another record year, Sotheby’s International Realty continued to strategically expand its presence around the world. In 2021, the brand opened 86 new offices, bringing the brand’s total presence to more than 1,000 offices in 79 countries and territories with more than 25,000 independent sales associates worldwide.

“Sotheby’s International Realty continued to expand internationally in key markets,” said Tammy Fahmi, senior vice president of global servicing and strategy for Sotheby’s International Realty. “In 2021, the brand opened offices in five new territories and our international sales volume grew by 56% year over year. Our global presence is a draw for our agents and clients, and we continue to evaluate markets that will support our strategic growth.”

In the EMEIA region, the brand expanded to Oman and Morocco and opened three new offices in the Swiss Alps region. In the Caribbean and Latin American region, the brand opened new offices in Jamaica and St. Kitts & Nevis during a boom of Caribbean interest.

As affluent individuals looked to purchase homes in a market with limited inventory, Sotheby’s International Realty agents acted as true global real estate advisors. Referral sales volume within the brand’s global network increased by nearly 80% year over year and the average sales price of these referrals increased by 21% year over year.

“Our ability to produce another historic year amid record demand and low inventory shows beyond a doubt that Sotheby’s International Realty agents are resourceful, committed, and informed to meet and exceed the needs of their clients,” concluded White.

JANINE CAREY JOINS DAMIANOS SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY AS AN ESTATE AGENT

NASSAU, The Bahamas (November 22, 2021) — George Damianos, Chief Executive Officer for Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty, and Lana Rademaker, Chief Brokerage Officer, are pleased to announce the addition of  Janine Carey to the sales team in Nassau.

“Between the accelerated rate of business this year and our firm’s well-established reputation as a market leader and a company which offers significant growth opportunities, we’ve attracted some very high-caliber agents so far this year, and Janine is no exception,” said Rademaker.

A longstanding member of the professional community in Nassau, Carey has been an entrepreneur and business owner on New Providence for more than 15 years with a significant portion of that career spent in health and wellness.

 “Utilizing my combined background in business, healthcare, and wellness, I approach my real estate business from a holistic perspective, focusing on homes and environments that offer my clients a sense of balance, well-being, and a healthy lifestyle, whatever that may mean for each individual,” Carey said.

In addition to her established success in building businesses and nurturing long-term client relationships, Carey has lived in five different countries including the U.S., Canada, Spain and Germany picking up a passion for cultural diversity along the way.

“Living in a variety of places has allowed me to experience the full evolution of moving to a new country and building a new life in many different environments—from renting in cities, to living on sustainable off-the-grid eco farms and homes—and I’ve found that each place requires its own unique version of immersion and local knowledge,” Carey said. “I know what it feels like to move to another country and start from scratch, finding dentists, doctors, a  local network and a community of like-minded people, so I truly enjoy leaning on my own relocation experiences to benefit my clients as they navigate their new lives in The Bahamas.”

“Janine’s entrepreneurial background, strong community ties and proven dedication to excellence in client service make her a valuable addition to our team,” Rademaker said. “And with her diverse base of clients, she’s well-positioned to thrive in the global network that defines Sotheby’s International Realty as a brand.”
