wendy.semkus@sothebysrealty.com I welcome this opportunity to connect and collaborate with you on your lifestyle design this year and beyond. Together, we can blend hearth, home, travel, investment, culture, art and sustainability into a way of life that reflects your inner world. I call it ‘life by design.’

As a Lifestyle Consultant, I seek first to understand you...your vision, values, connections, commitments and passions. We can then narrow the selection of homes to those that most closely match your ‘life by design.’ From architectural style and interior decor to sustainable and other eco-positive solutions, there are so many variations I can help you evaluate and implement during the selection phase and beyond.

As a Real Estate Agent, my specialty is representing home buyers anywhere in the world.

From selection through negotiation, purchase, move-in to occupancy and beyond, I focus on resolving every challenge a buyer can encounter. My goal is to ensure that every aspect of your experience, from the technical to the aesthetic, runs smoothly and that your interaction with me and my associates is a delightful one every step of the way. By focussing my business on the unique needs of buyers, I aim to raise expectations and satisfaction levels, in turn, creating greater value for all buyers.

When you’re ready to move forward, I’m ready to spring into action and find the home you’ve always imagined! Should you require assistance with international acquisitions and travel, I will use my Travel Consultant expertise to transform your home search into the adventure of a lifetime.

Your castle awaits!

Warmly,

Wendy

THANK YOU

– LUXURY REPORT EXPLAINED – The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing has analyzed a number of metrics — including sales prices, sales volumes, number of sales, sales-price-to-list-price ratios, days on market and priceper-square-foot – to provide you a comprehensive North American Luxury Market report.

Additionally, we have further examined all of the individual luxury markets to provide both an overview and an in-depth analysis - including, where data is sufficient, a breakdown by luxury single-family homes and luxury attached homes.

It is our intention to include additional luxury markets on a continual basis. If your market is not featured, please contact us so we can implement the necessary qualification process. More indepth reports on the luxury communities in your market are available as well.

Looking through this report, you will notice three distinct market statuses, Buyer's Market, Seller's Market, and Balanced Market. A Buyer's Market indicates that buyers have greater control over the price point. This market type is demonstrated by a substantial number of homes on the market and few sales, suggesting demand for residential properties is slow for that market and/or price point.

By contrast, a Seller's Market gives sellers greater control over the price point. Typically, this means there are few homes on the market and a generous demand, causing competition between buyers who ultimately drive sales prices higher.

A Balanced Market indicates that neither the buyers nor the sellers control the price point at which that property will sell and that there is neither a glut nor a lack of inventory. Typically, this type of market sees a stabilization of both the list and sold price, the length of time the property is on the market as well as the expectancy amongst homeowners in their respective communities – so long as their home is priced in accordance with the current market value.

REPORT GLOSSARY REMAINING INVENTORY: The total number of homes available at the close of a month.

DAYS ON MARKET: Measures the number of days a home is available on the market before a purchase offer is accepted.

LUXURY BENCHMARK PRICE: The price point that marks the transition from traditional homes to luxury homes.

NEW LISTINGS: The number of homes that entered the market during the current month.

PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT: Measures the dollar amount of the home's price for an individual square foot.

SALES RATIO: Sales Ratio defines market speed and determines whether the market currently favors buyers or sellers. Buyer's Market = up to 14%; Balanced Market = 15 to 20%; Seller's Market = 21% plus. If >100%, sales from previous month exceed current inventory.

SP/LP RATIO: The Sales Price/List Price Ratio compares the value of the sold price to the value of the list price.

MAP OF LUXURY RESIDENTIAL MARKETS

elcome to the Luxury Market Report, your guide to luxury real estate market data and trends for North America. Produced monthly by The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, this report

provides an in-depth look at the top residential markets across the United States and Canada. Within the individual markets, you will find established luxury benchmark prices and detailed survey of luxury active and sold properties designed to showcase current market status and recent trends. The national report illustrates a compilation of the top North American markets to review overall standards and trends.

Copyright © 2019 Institute for Luxury Home Marketing | www.luxuryhomemarketing.com | 214.485.3000 The Luxury Market Report is a monthly analysis provided by The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing. Luxury benchmark prices are determined by The Institute. This active and sold data has been compiled by various sources, including local MLS boards, local tax records and Realtor.com. Data is deemed reliable to the best of our knowledge, but is not guaranteed.

NORTH AMERICAN LUXURY REVIEW Static Market Leads to Focs on Future Trends In last month’s Luxury Market Report, we reviewed how the changing face of the real estate industry now fully recognizes the importance of including amenities that address the physical, social, and mental/emotional wellness of its residents. Today’s demand shows that for many buyers, larger properties are viewed as too labor-intensive and expensive to manage and maintain. Instead, home purchase decisions are trending towards smaller properties with the experiences and amenities a property affords to its owner.

Interestingly a first glance at the statistics shows that in last 18 months, the luxury market has been pretty static. But rather than this illustrating that the market is ‘status quo’ in terms of demand, these figures really show that there is still a strong confidence in the luxury market in terms of financial investment. Digging a little deeper into the data reveals that the money has been shifting gradually into the new demand pockets mentioned above.

This is why it’s so important to analyze the statistics. When there is little movement, the real changes can be going on behind the scenes in emerging trends; making it even more critical to pay attention.

The dramatic increases in the levels of property ownership over the last 50 years was greatly influenced by a changing economy from blue-collar to white-collar as well as women entering the workforce. However, while some predict that real estate will remain a long-term investment, others foresee a downward shift as the millennial population seek co-living and rental opportunities.

In the high-end market, the growing number of affluent will certainly mitigate a downward shift and its unlikely the millennial millionaire population will be seeking co-living or rentals, but they are shifting their preferences. Their attention is directed to finding opportunities in new markets, diversifying their portfolio, choosing locations that offer experiences, and discreetly spending on intangibles such as health and wellness.

But let’s not to be too hasty in dismissing the co-habitation amongst the wealthy, quite the opposite there is an increasing interest experiencing “community”, mutual activities and even sharing concepts. Overcoming isolation has become increasingly important, look only to luxury condominium and townhome complexes are integrating an array of amenities into large spaces designated for common use including stunning roof

top gardens, dog areas, demonstration kitchens, wine bars and coffee lounges, pool decks and quiet restorative areas for gardening, yoga, reading, and relaxing.

New emerging markets have been a topic long discussed with cities such as Austin, Raleigh/Durham, Nashville, Charlotte, Boston, Dallas/Fort Worth, Orlando, Atlanta, and Seattle taking the limelight. Success can be partly attributed to these cities and their suburbs evolving by integrating the concept of live, work, and play. Growing out of this concept is a new trend, that appeared this year, termed "hispturbia", which credits it as being a cool suburb. Where previously downtown and a few central districts were the places to “live,” this lifestyle has appealed to the desire of other more affordable suburbs to create their own versions.

When we look to the future, it is easy to only consider the demand and desires of the next generation. However, with such a large generation of baby boomers, it must be recognized that they are also going to affect future trends.

Through incredible advances in life expectancy and an increasing number of 65+ individuals remaining in the workforce (previously considered retirement age), this generation is reshaping a whole sector of real estate development as well as influencing wealth distribution.

It is predicted that their influence on downtown and even hipsturbia districts could be significant as they are not moving to senior housing, but into vibrant, safe, walkable and social communities.

Another trend that has emerged and truly being embraced by the wealthy, as we will see in some recent landmark sales, is the desire to choose homes that offer a lifestyle experience with the integration of energy efficiency and environmental designs.

These homeowners still want homes that offer plenty of space, privacy, and protection, but with today’s clever technology. Instead of palatial mansions, it is features such as smart home automation, unique designs, and custom spaces that are commanding the extraordinary price tags.

Trends such as expansive windows, indoor-outdoor living spaces, magnificent garages to house all the toys, resort-style pools, saunas and hot tubs, statement cellars and attention to eco-friendly features.

California still draws the ultra-wealthy and three landmark properties that sold this year range in price from $27 million for 8,000 sq. ft. home to just under $120 million for a 56,000 sq. ft. home.

Homes in Bel Air will always come with exceptional price tag and although one such property that sold for $119 million was sold for well below market value, it also broke a record as the most expensive in LA County’s history. The home certainly affords its new owner a new experience in each of its 123 rooms, but the price tag includes the status of being home to Hollywood’s elite.

Malibu has become a firm favorite for the wealthy over the last year and

one particular modern home epitomizes the feeling of bringing the outside in with its expansive views of the Pacific Ocean. Likewise, the smallest of our California landmark sales located in Santa Barbara embraces the outdoor lifestyle of California, it will be the exceptional Balinese/Asian influenced design that offers a unique experience to the new owner.

Moving to the opposite coast of Naples, Florida, a 4,200 sq ft property sold for just under $15,700,000 approximately 94% of its original list price. It includes 240 feet of beach frontage and a 2-acre lot that is located close to the heat of old Naples…location, location, location!

In Houston, Texas the iconic 10,000 sq. ft. property designed by Howard Barnstone and frequent host US presidential visits and grand parties sold for 95% of its nearly $16.5 million price tag. Considered a masterpiece, it boasts glass-walled living and dining room, large verandas, and wide decks with sweeping views of lush landscaping, fountains and even a bayou complete with terraced paths and trails.

Hunts Point, WA a waterfront mansion, designed by a local prominent architect Jim Olson, smashed recorded sales for West Washington with a sales tag of $37.5 million. Located in a tiny, exclusive enclave that juts into Lake Washington, this home comes complete with its own boat dock and previously served as an art collector’s paradise.

Park City claimed a significant sale in September. The 20,000 sq. ft. home offers ski-in/out combining mountain luxury with artistic design. Aptly described as being a resort within a resort - no expense was spared in its concept, design and construction.

A stunning penthouse in the downtown core of Denver, CO offers residents towering vistas from its 44th and 45th floors. It was marketed as the physical embodiment of grace and elegance while remaining at its core a modern architectural gem. It is hardly surprising this 6,295 sq. ft. home sold for 100% of its asking price at $10,750,000.

Sold for $21 million, an 8,000 sq. ft. penthouse in one of Miami’s luxurious oceanfront boutique buildings is a stunning example of feeling a world above and apart. It includes a floating staircase connecting two floors, glass elevator, rooftop terrace, infinity pool, summer kitchen and 22 ft. ceilings with 360 degree views!

In a nod to our frequent mentions about brand new developments that are remodeling to embrace the need for wellness and quality amenities, our last featured landmark sale is in Boston, MA. This 5,000 sq. ft. Greek Revival style townhome located in the heart of Boston’s elite neighborhood, sold 116% over asking at $15,750,000. The remodel preserves the grand details and proportions while offering top of the line fixtures and every modern residential amenity.

The most lucrative real estate niches largely depend on market trends and shifting buying interests, but some are long-time money-makers.

For homeowners looking to sell their luxury home in today’s market, we recommend working with a realtor who can capitalize on the preferences of current investors. By carefully focusing on the lifestyle-specific niche your property offers, in line with trends, it can be marketed effectively to connect with the right potential buyers.
