The powerhouse selling team at Platinum Real Estate the Luxury Home Experts has proven time and again that it’s got the right stuff as local leaders in the high-end real estate market.

Led by owners and experts Mark and Denise Zervos, the team includes industry veterans Erin Paglio and Lee Jarocki.

“Several of the listings we have on the market now come with breathtaking views, whether that means a downtown penthouse or estate on Lake Erie in Mentor,” says Denise, noting that in Cleveland, a home is considered a luxury property if it’s valued at $450,000 and above. “Over the past year, the market for luxury homes in Lake County has fared quite well. We recently had a record-breaking sale for a Mentor beachfront home.”

She reports that Cuyahoga County currently leads the pack with luxury sales.

“Over the past 30 days, Cuyahoga County had 11 homes sell that were priced over $800,000, there were three in Geauga County and two in Lake County,” she says.

“We are currently marketing a penthouse residence in the Pinnacle Building on Lakeside Avenue for $2.4 million that offers exquisite panoramic views of the downtown skyline,” says Denise. “From the nightlife to air shows, and all the Browns, Indians and Cavs games, everything is steps away. Many of our buyers are actually investing in these properties as second homes. The opportunities are growing.”

For more than 30 years, Platinum Real Estate the Luxury Home Experts has been successfully tapping into the luxury home buyer market. They know how to get a luxury property in front of the right buyers—and get it sold. This lakefront home in Mentor is available now and has its own private beach for summer fun and endless views.

Before Going on Market
“So much of what we do goes on before the luxury home is ever put on the market,” she says. “Our tight-knit and talented team is highly collaborative when it comes to discovering all the things that make a luxury home valuable. Then we come up with a strategy that will attract top dollar in this competitive market.”

They delve into the unique story each home has to tell and convey its best features to those who will find it most attractive.

“What we create is an emotional connection between home and buyer,” she adds. “And before it goes to market, we promote a home to our cultivated network of potential high-net-worth buyers. Additionally, we partner with more than 30 exclusive relocation firms so we can tap into those who are moving into the area.”

Just-Right Buyers
Both figuratively and literally, the Platinum Luxury Home Experts know what kind of language a luxury buyer speaks.

“A significant portion of this market, about one-third, is international,” she says. “With that in mind, we craft a narrative and have it professionally translated into their language to capture every nuance.”

They have a good feel for the key buyer’s habits—from the newspapers and magazines they read to which social media they are active on—to get the properties in front of them. The properties they market appear on global MLS platforms.

The system is working. Over the past 30 years they’ve been doing business, the Luxury Home Experts have sold more than one billion dollars in properties.

To expand their operation and serve clients who want to find second properties in Florida, Mark and Denise expanded to the sunshine state four years ago.

“It was a natural progression,” she says. “Whether our clients are retirees, snow-birds or just looking for prime investments, they put their trust in us to find the right homes for them at the best prices.”

Platinum Real Estate has 16 offices in Northeast Ohio and Columbus and nine in Florida. To get more information, call 844-LUX-PROS or visit ClevelandLuxuryExperts.com.
