M arilyn H offman MARILYN HOFFMAN’S expertise in selling extraordinary farms, ranches and estate properties attracts a clientele that reads like a Who’s Who of business, sports, entertainment and the social register. Golfer Lee Trevino, the CEO of the largest corporation in the country, a Saudi Prince, sports legend Deion Sanders, transportation secretary Milo Bryant, a billionaire Texas oilman, cosmetics queen Mary Kay, Merv Griffin, Indy winner, Andy Granatelli, and a major sports team owner have all been her clients.

Marilyn recently made history by listing one of the most expensive ranches in Texas, a $100,000,000 property. She also sold one of the largest estates in Texas to the new owners of the Texas Rangers and sold the most famous Texas oilman a $9,995,000 Dallas home.

Marilyn sold a $13,500,000 cutting horse ranch to the owners of a Scottish castle after she met them at Keeneland where they were high bidders at the auctions. Her most famous sale was a $20,000,000 estate that she listed, sold and closed for full price in 24 days. This 35,000 sq. ft. home was the largest and most expensive sale in the state. This estate was previously listed with another international realtor at a lower price and did not sell. Marilyn has also sold the largest/most expensive homes in multiple states, including the largest home in Oklahoma, Kentucky, ALABAMA, the Georgia home of Dale Murphy, the Hall of Fame Baseball Player, and the Double Diamond Ranch, a Texas Hill Country ranch with 2,000 acres and 19 homes.

“Marilyn’s aggressive approach to the international marketing of the property resulted in a hasten to add that the prior agencies failed completely to

Hoffman International Properties is honored to be selected amongst the winning companies of the esteemed International Property Awards, winning two awards, in the categories of Real Estate Agency in the state of Texas and Real Estate Marketing in the USA. There were only 6 companies in the USA nominated in the marketing category. The Americas Property Awards are part of the long established International Property Awards, the world’s richest competition in the real estate industry. Marilyn attended the high-profile gala at the Grosvenor House in London in December, where the world’s top agents and brokers receive their awards.

Marilyn is also a major donor to many charities, donating many Arabian horses for the auctions. Her donations at the Cattle Barons Ball are over $200,000, benefiting the American Cancer Society. Marilyn is also the only broker in the world to have exhibits at the world’s top equestrian events, such as the Rolex Three Day Event, the Egyptian Event, the Salon de Cheval in Paris, the Washington International Horse Show, the National Horse Show, the Hampton Classic, Newport Classic and Boston Classic and the Winter Equestrian Festival, NCHA World Championship Futurity and the Day Event.

Brantley Manor, although I did spend a substantial upfront marketing fee with them.”

Eugene L. Brantley, Esquire Seller of a 13,000 sq. ft. south Carolina mansion

Marilyn sold this $11,000,000 Texas ranch for $10,875,000 to the CEO of one of the world’s most famous Japanese corporations.

The trophy breeding herd consists of ten 200+ Boone and Crockett-class whitetail bucks and 150 does of superior genetic quality. The Dipper Ranch has abundant water with 13 lakes and ponds, stocked with fish, as well as one water well.
