Luxury Focus Christie’s is the only real estate brand owned by a luxury auction house, positioning your property among the world’s most exclusive assets, from fine art to rare collectibles. Sotheby’s, while also affiliated with an auction house, operates mostly on a franchise-based model with a broader range of price points. Direct Access to Global Ultra-High-Net-Worth Buyers Christie’s clientele includes collectors and investors accustomed to purchasing high-value assets, ensuring your property is marketed directly to a qualified and engaged audience. Boutique, Curated Approach Christie’s maintains a highly selective network of independently owned brokerages, ensuring top-tier service and marketing consistency. Sotheby’s, with its larger franchise model, can have varying service levels across different locations. Strategic, Bespoke Marketing Christie’s leverages its auction house reputation to position properties alongside rare and valuable investments, attracting true luxury buyers rather than general market interest.
