As luxury real estate markets cool, some home-owners are turning  to old-school methods to sell their high-end homes. Auctions have become a marketing option for selling luxury homes, mirroring common marketing techniques for high-end art, antiques and collectibles.

Summit Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to announce a new strategic and exclusive partnership with Platinum Luxury Auctions in Utah. This new relationship will allow Summit Sotheby’s International Realty to help clientele who seek an auction experience for their real estate assets.

Summit Sotheby’s International Realty preferred Platinum’s luxury auction services due to the firm’s extensive experience, its broker-friendly business model and its reputation for serving as an exceptional ambassador of their clients’ distinguished properties.
