shipping port for the Klondike Gold Rush, Seattle now hosts the largest population in the Evergreen State—aptly named

as Washington has no state income tax. It also happens to be the fastest-growing large city (per capita) in the US. Considering its auspicious peer group comprising of Vancouver, BC, San Francisco and Los Angeles, CA, (among the most heavily-taxed regions

in North America), Seattle offers a similar Pacific Rim perch, yet remains a noted bargain for employers and employees alike.

Meteoric job growth, high incomes, unparalleled economic prospects, and relatively low housing costs are just a few lifestyle facets that make this unique West Coast city shine.

and agents camp outside your real estate office to reserve their time to see specific units.

This happened over the first weekend of June 2016 in Seattle for the new highrise Nexus building. It was one of the first

bases there, while others are still arriving

with the draw of no state income taxes. The city is still more affordable than the San Francisco Bay Area, with very good schools, and interest is coming from all over the world.

It’s not surprising that Realogics Sotheby’s

International Realty (RSIR) was chosen to market the Nexus building — the building’s developer was Canadian, as is the cofounder of RSIR, Dean Jones, who was also involved in the design process.

has just calculated that Chinese investors’ 140 percent over the previous year. Juwai’s North America president, Matthew Moore, attributed this to the punitive taxes on foreign buyers in Vancouver, moving them south.

WHAT ATTRACTED NEW AFFILIATE TO SOTHEBY’S? When new development dried up, Dean Jones and his wife, Stacy, decided to go into residential resale in 2009 — signing

up with Sotheby’s International Realty® in early 2010 as Sotheby’s second affiliate in Washington.

Realogics was not a typical affiliate partner for Sotheby’s.

Neither Dean nor Stacy are brokers. Dean explains: “Sotheby’s

International Realty was a very established brand, which was realizing it needed to adopt a different kind of franchisee model to

grow. They liked that we were approaching the industry differently

and that we were not just another Jones & Jones operation. They

could see we had a model that could build a brokerage and liked our condo campaigns and our unique microbranding.”

( F r o m b a c k l e f t t o r i gh t ) M i c h a e l X . F o r d , Je n n i f e r Johnsen Cameron, Joe Galindo, Diane Nelson, S t a c y J o n e s , D e a n J o n e s a n d A n d r e a S a v a ge

The Joneses, with their business acumen, were willing to be the

David to the local market’s Goliaths, Windermere Real Estate and John L. Scott, added Dean.

“These were huge companies with amazing headwinds,” said

Dean. “In the early years, there is no doubt we felt that — but we kept trotting forward and differentiating along the way."

“How good does it feel now to be a $1 billion-plus producer with a scalable and profitable model alongside our broker partners?”

"There is nothing like feeling different to make you try harder," he added. “So much of what has led us to be innovative was a requirement to stand out in the market.”

The Joneses now have five offices which include Seattle, Bainbridge Island and Kirkland, among others, with 180 brokers (as agents are called in Washington state).

The company said it does 73 percent of all Sotheby’s

International Realty business in the Northwest, specializing in luxury high-end resale.

RSIR was ranked among the top 100 “Fastest-Growing Private Companies” in Washington State, according to the Puget

Sound Business Journal 2016 Book of Lists. RSIR ranked 46th

in revenues of $20.66 million in 2015, an increase of 125.62 percent compared with 2013.

Of the top 10 largest real estate brands in Washington, for the

year to November 2016, RSIR was the 9th largest by dollar

volume ($1.048 billion), number 1 by average listing sold ($919,000), and number 1 most productive per listing broker, according to Trendgraphix.

A BROKERAGE OFFERING ITS AGENTS MICROBRANDING RSIR has built a reputation for its outside-the-box marketing

ideas and for having a global view — it set up an Asian Services Group to help its brokers, for instance.

In its recruiting, the brokerage has gone for high-producing agents who want a change — a more innovative and forwardthinking view.

“If you talk to enough top brokers, they will tell you what to do

for them,” said Dean. He explains the company’s approach to “microbranding” for agents.

RSIR.COM | 07

"With the microbranding, we help a broker step up and be counted

out content,” he said. “We are behind the scenes creating content

“We truly position them as global real estate advisers, not

burning the midnight oil, but they don’t have to anymore.”

with better marketing tools, so they are not secret agents,” he said. transaction-based ones. Our model is much more about

wealth management, representing families and an entire portfolio across entire generations.”

This approach has attracted a number of high performing agents from the big players in the market, including senior brokers Becky Gray and Chris Doucet.

As Jones puts it: “We are not going to have a ‘mothership’ of thousands of brokers; we are not going to be a commodity.”

RSIR’S USE OF EVOKER FILMS One of the ways RSIR helps agents with their microbranding

is through its high-quality Evoker agent films, which were first used by Jameson Sotheby’s International Realty in Chicago.

Eddie Chang, a broker and a global real estate adviser, did his Evoker film at home with his wife and toddler.

“The idea of these mini-films is they help separate us from the masses by showing who we really are and what is important to us,” said Chang.

He was going to do something on his interest in chess, but his toddler daughter was so cute, they decided to do the bulk of the mini-film with his family. He is cooking while

The company is incorporating a sound room and anchor desk in its new Seattle annex to start producing regular video productions and interviews about design, market trends and beyond.

RSIR also has a number of partnerships with media

companies, such as Geekwire and the Puget Sound Business

Journal, and with luxury providers such as Ferrari, Ferretti / Riva Yachts and Seattle Magazine –which produces a luxury all-Mandarin glossy magazine for the brokerage.

WHEN IN DOUBT, CREATE YOUR OWN MARKET One of the company’s earliest hires, Chris Doucet, who joined from Windermere, appreciates the creative heads in the company.

She recently had a luxury listing built by a known architect,

but the property was not selling. “I went to Dean and said, ‘What can we do?’ And we collaborated.” Dean noted that

there were other architecturally significant homes in the area.

Because it was near Halloween, instead of having a hunt for

candy, the brokers decided “we would have a treasure hunt

of architecturally significant properties,” Doucet explained. A

group of brokers designed a tour flyer, which got lots of press.

his daughter plays. “The feedback from sellers has been

that these are people who care about how they represent

themselves — they are not just going to plug your home into an MLS; they will have a customized strategy and

marketing plan that will fit the highlights of your home.

There will not be a canned response,” said Chang.

Dean, meanwhile, spends a lot of time creating content to make his agents look smart, and it is a draw for incoming sales affiliates.

“We think we also have to be publishers, producers and publicists

— we believe that it’s our job as the editor of our brokers to push 08 | RSIR.COM

E d d i e C h a ng a n d D a u gh t e r

The tour attracted people who were interested in design and architecture but not necessarily actively house-hunting.

Nonetheless, “we had two competitive offers within a couple of days,” said Doucet.

“We can turn it into a stage for third parties—we offer it to charities, like the local chamber of commerce. Being attached

to a wine bar adds to the ambience. Garage doors open up to

the street—we have been called the Times Square of Kirkland,” said Jones.

“I want to be surrounded by the best; there’s more than enough business to go round and agents are the best contacts out there.

“By going into key retail locations, we can much easier become a part of the community and create ongoing conversations with

potential clients who are transacting real estate business, sometimes all over the world,” said VP of brand development, Jennifer Johnsen Cameron.

The Kirkland office, for instance, has been designed to cater
