Elle rehausse le marché immobilier de l’océan Indien sollicité de toutes parts pour investir, goûter les joies d’une résidence tropicale ou profiter d’une retraite bien méritée, avec permis de résidence mauricien et avantages fiscaux. Qu’elle achète, vende ou loue, Mauritius Sotheby’s International Realty porte haut la bannière séculaire de Sotheby’s en sa géographie moderne. Pour, écho des origines, insuffler à la vie les grâces d’une œuvre d’art ! The Sotheby’s International Realty® brand’s rich history goes back to 1744; when the venerable Sotheby’s Auction House was established. Serving eminent patrons in quest of fine arts, antiques, books, and other collectible memorabilia and solicited by artistic afficionados, the Auction House founded the brand in 1976 to service the real estate needs of the most prestigious clientele in the world. The collaboration between realty and auction utilizes a combination of unique and exclusive marketing efforts that provide targeted exposure to a coveted and influential audience. With the coming of the Sotheby’s International Realty® brand to Mauritius, the history of the island joins in the spirit of an extraordinary and revolutionary lifestyle. The Sotheby’s brand has for centuries established a unique sense of trust with its particularly refined clientele, building this confidence around an unflinching sensitivity towards aesthetic norms. This sense of trust has opened the doors to novel real estate opportunities: a castle in Rhineland, a loft in Manhattan, a duplex overlooking the Champs-Élysées! It is precisely by honouring these orders that the Sotheby’s International Realty® network (SIR.com) has built its expertise, an entity that has experienced exponential growth. The company has built an international network spanning 61 countries and driven by more than 17000 representatives working in 800 agencies. Its remarkable media tools and resources ensure its powerful interactivity: a property sold by the Sotheby’s International Realty® network may feature in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal or the Financial Times. Managed by Thierry Rey (on the right of the photo), Diane Watkins and Timo Geldenhuys, Mauritius Sotheby’s International Realty has come into being through a fusion between this international powerhouse and the best Mauritian teams drawing from more than 20 years of experience in the local and foreign real estate investment context. This new label in the Mauritian real estate landscape also enhances the market in the Indian Ocean, a region that is already solicited from all quarters for investment opportunities in view of discovering the joys of owning a freehold property on a tropical island or the pleasures of a well-deserved retirement together with residence permit and fiscal benefits. Whether it’s in the buying, selling or renting business, Mauritius Sotheby’s International Realty keeps flying high the Sotheby’s age-old emblem in this new location, artfully uniting extraordinary homes with extraordinary lives.
