Como Lake Resort in Italy | Premier International Property Spotlight Posted on April 16, 2019 by Michael Light Because of our powerful partnership with Knight Frank Residential headquartered in London, we announced in an earlier article this year that we would be showcasing a premier international property every month, this year. This month, we are showcasing Como Lake Resort, which is a unique residential development situated on the water’s edge of Lake Como in Northern Italy, a global hotspot that attracts celebrities and affluent people from all around the world. Como Lake Resort is a contemporary residential development offering luxury lakeside apartments featuring absolutely breathtaking views of the sparkling water of Lake Como complimented by a dramatic backdrop of beautiful mountains. Seriously, where else could you get these views? The luxury apartments at Como Lake Resort are quite spacious as they range in size from 99 to 255 square meters, which is equivalent to 1,066 to 2,745 square feet, with prices starting at €1.35 Million (US$1.5 Million). Each apartment offers beautiful wood flooring, high-quality Italian finishes throughout and a garden or terrace overlooking the lake. Below the apartments is a private boathouse that accommodates ‘dry store’ spaces for 10 boats and 4 external berths, and what is more unique about this property is that this boathouse has direct access to the residences and car parking using a central elevator. This means that residents can easily drop their car off and hop on their boat in a matter of minutes. Como Lake Resort is not just a home, it’s a lifestyle.

A Powerful Partnership | Douglas Elliman’s Exclusive Partnership with Knight Frank Residential Posted on January 24, 2019March 11, 2019 by Michael Light A few years ago, Douglas Elliman Real Estate, the highest-grossing private real estate company in the United States, formed an exclusive partnership with Knight Frank Residential headquartered in London, which is an international luxury real estate firm that individually operates across Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. These 2 real estate powerhouses strategically formed an alliance because Douglas Elliman only operates in the United States while Knight Frank operates everywhere but the U.S. So, what better way to take over the luxury real estate market across the globe…form an exclusive partnership. But this partnership is not just for looks, it is genuinely effective and efficient. Both Douglas Elliman and Knight Frank represent many ultra-high-net-worth individuals that are buying real estate all over the world, whether for investment purposes only or for 2nd, 3rd homes, etc. Together, DE & KF joined forces to create an influential real estate network spanning 523 offices in 60 countries across 6 continents. Our companies share clients and data as well as collaborate on projects. For example, every year DE & KF put out the highly-respected Wealth Report, which reflects the global perspective on prime property and investment, including key wealth trends and property hotspots around the world. The Wealth Report examines investment trends covering almost 100 countries and 100+ cities, including what $1M USD buys you around the world. Douglas Elliman & Knight Frank have come together to build a platform that caters to the global needs of all of our clients.

On a global scale, Miami has grown to become one of the most sought-after destinations to call home. Whether because of the year-round tropical weather, the value proposition of owning real estate or the escape from an ever-expanding tax base that has majorly affected a huge portion of the U.S., people are flocking to Miami more than ever. Because of the diverse international presence in Miami, a lot of my long-term clients hail from all around the world, thus they buy property all around the world, not just in Miami. Because of our exclusive partnership with Knight Frank, my clients can utilize the relationships that we have built to help them with purchases in all of the locations that Knight Frank is present. I would personally assist with global purchases and refer you to an advisor that I trust to take care of you in the city/country that you are looking to purchase. Our Monthly Spotlight on Premier International Properties Jaimee and I traveled across the pond to meet with our Knight Frank colleagues Stacey Watson, Partner and Manager of International Operations, and Daniel Daggers, a premier luxury agent in London also known as ‘Mr. Super Prime,’ to tour the most exclusive properties being marketed for sale in London. We also discussed with Stacey and Daniel the overall market trends around the world, and they informed us about exclusive properties being marketed for sale by Knight Frank in other markets including Sydney, Dubai, Interlaken, Paris and Singapore. Because of our insightful meeting, we thought it would be a great idea and beneficial to our international clients to publish a monthly spotlight on a premier international property. This property may be a boutique condo building in the heart of London, a luxury estate on a sprawling game farm in South Africa, an exquisite house in a quiet village along the mountains in Switzerland, etc. Our first spotlight will be coming in a few weeks where we feature a spectacular boutique condo building in the Mayfair neighborhood of London, Clarges at Mayfair, so be sure to check out this stunning property, along with all of the others each month!
