Surterre sees $1.14 billion in luxury sales in 2010

Surterre Properties experienced $1.14 billion in luxury residential real estate sales in 2010, up 26 percent from the prior year – all in the face of a difficult selling climate.

Founded in 2006, Surterre Properties is a boutique real estate firm with offices in Newport Beach, Corona del Mar and Laguna Beach. The company's 2010 transactions stretched from Los Angeles to San Diego, and included a "nearly equal" number of buyers and sellers, according to Surterre.

In fact, over the last 13 months, the company represented all five of the sales of $12 million or more in Newport Coast – including the $14.5 million property at 20 Fairway Point, said Surterre Properties President and CEO Gary Legrand.

"Up to that point over the last 20 years, there had only been seven sales over $12 million, according to the MLS for Newport Coast," he said.

The company attributes its success to its teamwork, personalized service, its in-house design and advertising studio, and its use of new technologies in the industry.

"This and our 2010 numbers indicate we are capturing a greater share of Southern California’s luxury real estate transactions than many other brokerage companies," said Legrand.
