Leave it to coastal Cape Cod to produce a cross-section of residential glamour so varied that homeowners can experience everything from seaside splendor to a taste of Europe in neighboring zip codes. From dramatic hilltop estates to traditional waterfront manses to one-level condominiums, this incomparable stretch of Massachusetts' famed peninsula offers something for virtually every discerning palate. That same variety that proves so compelling also can be overwhelming for those trying to sift through the area's high-end residential options. Since launching the LuxRECapeCod team at Gibson Sotheby's International Realty, Matt Leonard and Brian Pothier have demonstrated a more significant understanding of those nuances. Their intimate knowledge of the market, not to mention their expert team, has led to record-setting sales.
"LuxRECapeCod is a diverse group of talented professionals with decades of experience marketing and selling Cape Cod real estate," says Brian Pothier. "Our team brings together one cohesive group of photographers, stylists, stagers, interior designers, and marketing and sales specialists. We are known on Cape Cod for our innovative all-inclusive marketing program that exceeds our clients' expectations with no hidden cost."
There has been an influx of foreign and domestic interest in Cape Cod which continues to change the landscape in its luxury communities. LuxRECapeCod has overseen the commissions of over-the-top homes and equally over-the-top sales driving the market. They have established themselves as the go-to for captains of industry, representing residences that command commensurate prices. "Our strict marketing standards have been proven repeatedly," graciously touts Pothier. " Our team is honored to hold records of multiple properties' highest listing and sale price."
As part of the team's exceptional customer service, their lead designer, Bernadette Gent, has the tall task of staging the luxury residences they represent. "My husband Frank and I have worked with Brian in a number of real estate transactions on Cape Cod over the years," explains client Janet Bianco. "Since joining Sotheby's, his already high level of professionalism and personal attention has been elevated to a new level. Working with the team has been a game changer in an ever-competitive real estate market. Our home in Orleans, which we thought looked ready for sale, was transformed with new furniture, decor, and floral arrangements. If we were in the market for a wonderful home in a great location, this would be the one! The photography and drone shots, as well as video, played a key role in making our home stand out. Brian Pothier and his team are the best. They can be trusted to market and sell your home honestly and without stress."
One of their latest sale, 16 Snow Way in Orleans, sold for $11,000,000, further proves their team's motto, "Never following, always setting the market."
