Lisa Cheponis is among the select group of agents who were first chosen to be part of the elite REAL Luxury Division of REAL.
With its strong, collaborative culture and positive spirit of “anything is possible,” REAL Luxury is attracting top talent at such a pace that it has now become the fastest-growing luxury real estate group in the nation.
Each REAL Luxury agent must apply to be selected for the Division. They must have a proven track record of success selling homes in the luxury space. They must qualify for and maintain good standing as Members in The Institute of Luxury Home Marketing, and they must earn the designation Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist. At all times, they must uphold the REAL Luxury standards for Excellence, Ethics, and Execution.
These high standards differentiate agents chosen for the REAL Luxury Division from agents you might meet at many “luxury brokerages” (or within “luxury” divisions of other brokerages). At other brokerages, it is not uncommon to require only a single, day-long course for an agent to be called a “luxury agent.” These agents may or may not have a track record of selling luxury properties. And many “luxury brokerages” commonly recruit agents who sell a high volume of less expensive homes but have never sold a luxury home; these agents “wear the brand” of their “luxury brokerage” but are in fact inexperienced when it comes to the attention, focus, strategies, and skills required of an agent in order to help clients succeed in a luxury-level transaction. Lisa’s track record and experience made her one of the first agents chosen for REAL’s Luxury Division.
REAL Luxury agents collaborate personally and regularly with one another, across the nation and beyond, to help promote and sell one another’s listings – which matters in our world more now than ever before, as markets everywhere see more clients than ever before coming from outside areas to buy luxury real estate.
This uniquely personal collaboration, this high level of direct communication, and this genuine connection between the accomplished agents of REAL Luxury combine to improve your experience and boost your success; REAL Luxury agents continually share cutting-edge ideas and help one another expose listings to the right potential buyers, no matter where they might be.
At REAL Luxury, all agents are under the same roof, across the nation; it’s one big family of agents, who share the same culture and values and who all play on the same team. If you have a luxury listing with REAL Luxury, the personalized attention and human eyes on your listing both locally and across markets everywhere in the nation and beyond is what you want—and what you get.
At other “luxury” brands, franchises are more separated than united, and there is too much process, not enough personalization. Communications between franchises are weak compared to communications within REAL Luxury. Other brokerages are “systems-heavy” when it comes to sharing information on listings, filling agents’ in-boxes with so many alerts about listings that the listings simply become noise and often don’t get noticed. (It really is too much noise, in a world that is overwhelming already with all the noise). Within REAL Luxury, listings are discussed personally, one-on-one, and in regular, live Zoom meetings with all REAL Luxury agents in all markets, directly exposing luxury listings to well-connected, experienced luxury agents who actually work together and know one another—across the entire nation and beyond.
Luxury standards are what Lisa brings to each seller whose home she lists for sale and to each buyer she helps find their dream home. This can and does mean high end. It also means quality—service, negotiation, focus, results— no matter the price point. If you become Lisa’s client, you are treated like gold. Period.
If you are questioning whether your real estate needs truly fit into the luxury category, never fear. Lisa cares deeply about helping people achieve their life dreams, regardless of price. Reach out. Lisa would love to talk with you. Have a conversation, and together you can determine if it is a good fit.
The founding company over the REAL Luxury Division is REAL, the fastest growing publicly traded real estate brokerage in the world. At the helm is President Sharran Srivatsaa, who is highly regarded as a four-time Inc. 500 Entrepreneur, as a former Goldman Sachs investment advisor, and as a visionary leader who grew a small company 10X in five years to 3.4 Billion. Srivatsaa is also known as one of the real estate profession’s most successful, insightful, kind, innovative, and inspiring leaders. At the heart of the culture of REAL Broker is the mantra, “Work Hard, Be Kind.”
REAL Broker empowers REAL agents with cutting edge technology that frees up their time. With less constrained time for meetings at the office, REAL agents have more flexible time to work at their best, focus when and as the job requires, and serve you better.
REAL empowers agents with relevant, in-depth education and training that is available when and where it works for the agents, allowing them to grow and hone their skills while freeing up their time, giving them control of their schedules, and making them better agents for you.
REAL Luxury Division agents, empowered by the culture of REAL, interact in a uniquely collaborative way. And they do so across markets and across the nation and beyond, directly sharing insights and personally working to sell one another’s listings.Most luxury brokerages in any given area are franchises that were simply purchased by different individuals, creating different cultures in each office and disconnected silos from one area of the country to the next (and even within one city or state).
When I think of The Best, I think of Lisa. Lisa is the kind of REALTOR® who makes things happen. She gets results. She has amazing passion and drive. She is a class act who has a genuine commitment to each client and always acts in their best interests—always. This is an all-too-rare combination, and yet it’s who she is, to the core. It’s also why she has such impressive sales results and a track record of consistent success. Of the hundreds of real estate sales professionals with whom I have worked in my career, Lisa is an absolute star. Work with her, and you’ll be fortunate—and happy.
