Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty specializes in the sale of upper-echelon properties.
With three offices covering the state of Virginia, we have maintained a top place in the current market. Within our field of expertise, we believe Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty is unsurpassed. Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty chooses to specialize in and concentrate on major farm, estate and waterfront offerings. We have brought that expertise to the residential market, representing the best in city as well as suburban living. In order to provide our clients with the highest level of service, the number of properties placed with this firm is consistently maintained at a manageable level. A situation of too many listings being managed by one firm dilutes the service and attention given to any one listing. Therefore, many potential listing opportunities are turned down by us. This factor has contributed to our reputation in Virginia as the most exclusive and successful broker for luxury estate and residential properties.


We have enlisted a top notch SEO company who works around the clock to achieve top search results. Our website generates constant activity on a daily basis not only to our firm, but to the listings of our clients. With state of the art functionality and a streamline aesthetic, we believe our site to be unsurpassed. Properties listed with Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty appear on numerous internet sites, including Trulia, Zillow and Realtor.com, where all Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty listings have paid special feature pages.
EXPOSURE
We have a social network that many of our competitors strive for. Having worked with high-end sellers and purchasers for over 35 years has given us an inside edge on the market. Due to the sensitive nature of the industry, many properties are for sale that are not publicly advertised. Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty has been known for first hand knowledge of such properties and making transactions happen.
MARKETING
A unique aspect of this firm is the existence of our "in-house" advertising agency. Rather than depending upon outside media sources for production work, all Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty advertisements and brochures are designed, photographed and produced camera-ready by our own staff located through our main office in Charlottesville. Listings are advertised on a broad local, regional, national, and in some cases, international basis, and then tracked to measure results.
Our agents are intimately familiar with details pertaining to each listing. Showing procedures are thoughtfully planned in advance rather than simply ad-libbed by agents often unfamiliar with the property's most basic attributes. Follow-up is a matter of procedure rather than an afterthought. Contract negotiations are handled by business professionals with many years of related brokerage experience. This degree of professionalism is rarely, if ever, found elsewhere in our industry; the result being that Frank Hardy Sotheby's International Realty, on behalf of its clients, has been uniquely successful in this very specialized and sophisticated market niche.
