Representatives of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty announced today their Grand Opening of their new Eastside branch office located 15 Lake Street in downtown Kirkland. The brokerage firm also includes an in-house, preferred lender relationship with Cobalt Mortgage and a retail partnership to showcase select furnishings and artwork from Masins, Alchemy Collections and The Island Gallery. Previously announced this week, their retail storefront will also feature a wine bar and retail wine shop operated by DeLille Cellars called “Maison DeLille”, an installation of custom light fixtures by LightArt®, an audio-visual presentation by Wipliance and exclusive residential opportunities represented by Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty.

“We are proud to offer our brokers and clients immediate access to these fine services, products and works of art from our in-house retail partners,” said Stacy Jones, Owner and Vice President of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty. “It’s also a convenient opportunity for our customers to experience a convergence of lifestyle brands all while sampling fine wines and exploring beautiful homes for sale – what’s not to love? We each target a very similar psychographic consumer profile, which we affectionately refer to as the connoisseurs of life.”

The 3,200 sq. ft. facility is set to open to the public on March 1, 2014. In addition to viewing the furnishings and art on display consumers will be provided catalogues from each retail partner within what’s dubbed the “Connoisseurs of Life Showroom.”

The Kirkland branch of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty is opening with 36 licensed agents and accepting interviews for additional broker recruits. Chad Zinda is appointed the Designated Broker & Director of Sales and Shelley Cribby is the Director of Eastside Operations. The broker collective will specialize in Eastside real estate but will also proudly service all property types and price points in the Puget Sound metro area and out of state through strategic referral networks.

The private preview events have already drawn praise from local leaders in the Kirkland community.
