Phoenix, AZ - Local Luxury Real Estate is proud to announce that Walt Danley Christie's International Real Estate has joined its brokerage to become Local Walt Danley | Christie’s International Real Estate, a move that will bolster the company's reputation as a leader in the luxury real estate market in Arizona.
With this new partnership, Local Luxury Real Estate will expand its portfolio of luxury properties, offering discerning buyers and sellers an even wider range of options to choose from. Moreover, the acquisition will enhance the firm's ability to provide exceptional service to its clients by leveraging Christie’s International Real Estate’s powerful national and international brokerage network, offering greater marketing exposure through top-tier publications and digital platforms, and through connections to the iconic Christie’s auction house for the sale of art and luxury goods.
With a total of $700 million in sales in 2022 and representing some of Arizona’s most iconic properties, this partnership combines two of the most sought-after luxury real estate brokerages in Phoenix. The move brings together 70 agents from Local Luxury and 35 agents from Walt Danley, with offices in Arcadia, Paradise Valley, North Scottsdale and plans to expand into Flagstaff to better serve Arizona’s upscale communities.
This partnership unites two of Arizona’s most accomplished luxury real estate professionals. Katrina Barrett, founder and designated broker at Local Luxury Real Estate, who quickly ascended to become one of the leading real estate agents in Arcadia, Paradise Valley, Scottsdale and Phoenix. Her sales of over $300 million in 2021 placed her as the #2 agent in Arizona. She has been recognized among the Top 100 agents in the United States for the past three years, underscoring her exceptional track record. Walt Danley, the founder of Walt Danley Christie's International, brings over 40 years of experience, consistently ranking among the top 1% of REALTORS® in the United States in terms of annual sales volume, and multiple record-setting sales throughout his career. Together, they will lead the brokerage with a steadfast commitment to providing exceptional service to Arizona’s luxury real estate market.
"We are thrilled to bring Walt Danley Christie's International Real Estate into the Local Luxury Real Estate family," said Katrina Barrett. “For us, the relationship always comes ahead of the transaction, and the values we share make this partnership an easy decision. I am looking forward to working alongside Walt and his amazing team and leveraging the Christie’s International Real Estate affiliation to give our luxury clients even greater service.”
Walt Danley, expressed similar enthusiasm about the acquisition. “When I started planning the firm’s next chapter, I made one phone call - and that was to Katrina. We are excited to join forces with Local Luxury Real Estate and to contribute our expertise to their team," he said. "Together, we will provide unparalleled service to our clients and set the standard for luxury real estate in Phoenix."
