From community involvement and philanthropy, to a brand heritage dating back over 275 years, Piatt Sotheby’s International Realty is about redefining real estate – inspiring us to continually push boundaries, innovate and differentiate. For your consideration, we’ve identified the top 10 reasons why we’re different, what sets us apart, items we call our passion points. These passion points, paired with our defining of luxury as an experience, not a price point, is exactly why Piatt Sotheby’s International Realty is like no other.
