RE/MAX Professionals appoints Jackie Garcia as Director of Luxury Homes
Broker Jackie Garcia has been appointed Director of Luxury Homes for RE/MAX Professionals, the newly merged entity that combines the resources of two large RE/MAX offices in Denver and of Prestige Real Estate Group. Garcia, who holds the Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist designation from the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, has been a top producer at Prestige in luxury sales, known in particular for her professional sports clientele.
Jackie Garcia shows a custom home on 78 acres near Parker, with accompanying stables and caretaker apartment.
“We’re positioning RE/MAX Professionals to be a major force in Denver’s luxury market, particularly as that market recovers,” said Leeann Iacino, President of RE/MAX Professionals, in announcing the appointment. “The combined influence that our companies have had in higher priced neighborhoods suggests that we’re going to be very well situated as that recovery occurs.”
Garcia said she expects the luxury priced market to recover at a more tempered pace than lower and mid-priced homes, but that a recovery had begun. “We’re already seeing higher traffic and more interest in the higher ranges,” Garcia said in accepting the appointment. “We’re also finding a better situation for non-conforming, jumbo financing now than was the case for the past year.”
Garcia expects her new position to add strength to RE/MAX Professionals’ capabilities in serving luxury home buyers and sellers, but also in helping prepare newer agents for the special requirements of the luxury market. “This is the moment for anyone who wants to take advantage of the current price picture to begin actively searching luxury home listings,” Garcia added. “There are incredible buys now, with some sellers willing to do owner-carried financing.”
Luxury homes will be the focus of a special Luxury Home Tour that RE/MAX Professionals will sponsor 3-7 p.m. on Sept. 23rd and 30th. The tour will feature special sponsors for each participating home, showcasing luxury automobiles and furnishings.
In addition to the Certified Luxury Home designation, Garcia has three additional Realtor designations: the Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI), the Certified Realtor Specialist (CRS), and the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR). The four designations are collectively held by only a small percentage of agents nationally.
Garcia notes that RE/MAX Professionals has enhanced its capabilities for marketing acreage properties using aerial photography. Jackie Garcia and her Mile High Dream Team can be reached at 303-257-7788, or at RE/MAX Professionals’ Highlands Ranch Office, 1745 Shea Center Drive, Suite 100, in Highlands Ranch.
