Keller Williams Metropolitan’s Int’l Premier Properties Team Forms Marketing Alliance with Snell Real Estate

RISMEDIA, Oct. 11, 2007-International Premier Properties, part of Houston-based Keller Williams Metropolitan, announces that it has formed a marketing partnership with Snell Real Estate, one of the largest and most prestigious real estate brokerages in Baja California Sur, Mexico.

Keller Williams’ International Premier Properties will manage the North American marketing and sales activities of luxury resort and residential properties that include the Punta Ballena Las Estrellas “The Stars” in Los Cabos, Espiritu Del Mar in Los Cabos, and Playa de La Paz, beachfront residences located in La Paz. International Premier Properties is working with Snell Real Estate to market these upscale properties through the Keller Williams Realty organization in the U.S. and Canada.

The Punta Ballena Las Estrellas condominiums are considered the best high-end condominium value in Los Cabos and range from $1.45 million to $2.1 million. These three bedroom and four bedroom luxury condominiums provide breathtaking views of blue water and Los Cabos’ famous “Drinking Dragon”, or Land’s End. Espíritu Del Mar is one of the most unique resort communities in the Los Cabos area with private residences in an exclusive mountainside community, with homes priced from $3.75 million to $7 million. Playa de La Paz offers luxury resort condominiums in a private gated beachfront community built along prime ocean front property. Prices for these condominiums range from $856,000 to $2.2 million.

According to Snell Real Estate’s statistics for closed sales, property values in Los Cabos have experienced annual increases of 10 to 20% over the past five years as a result of the quality infrastructure, homeowners’ services, world class amenities and benefits, top security, and strict design guidelines.

“We are extremely privileged to be working with Snell Real Estate,” said Bill Gottfried, managing director of the International Premier Properties team with Keller Williams Metropolitan. “Chris Snell and his Snell Real Estate colleagues in Los Cabos and Baja California Sur have absolutely set the platinum standard for high-end luxury real estate in Mexico.”

An independent real estate brokerage in Baja California Sur, Snell Real Estate represents over 85% of the high-end real estate market in Los Cabos and La Paz and more than 70% of the available residential oceanfront properties on the market. Chris Snell, president and founder, established Snell Real Estate to exclusively represent luxury real estate developments in Baja California Sur and has pioneered the use of U.S. Third Party Escrow services in Los Cabos to ensure the safety and security of buyers’ funds. In addition, Snell Real Estate only represents properties that can be covered by a U.S. Title Insurance Policy.
