PRIVALIA x Hamptons International: a family signature within a global network

Targeted access to international markets

Since 1869, Hamptons International has embodied a high quality vision of real estate. With a presence in more than 40 countries, over 1,200 partners, 85 branches in the UK and more than 150,000 properties listed, the British brand has established itself as one of the global pillars of the sector. This affiliation enables PRIVALIA to offer its customers a new international reach, by accessing a base of qualified buyers, sellers and investors throughout the world.

For PRIVALIA, this partnership is much more than just enhanced visibility. It comes with access to ultra-targeted services: selective distribution programmes, off-market mandates, international synergies and confidential contacts with qualified buyers, notably via the Private Office and the H Club of the Hamptons network.

The art of brokerage, in its Geneva version

Since it was founded, PRIVALIA has cultivated a demanding approach to its profession: shaping each assignment as a unique work of art, respecting the history, intentions and potential of the property entrusted to us. Based in Geneva and active throughout the Lake Geneva region, the company has made its mark through the quality of its work, the consistency of its results, and a sense of detail cultivated over time – between rigour, listening and precision.

“Hamptons wanted to establish itself in French-speaking Switzerland, a strategic area for major international fortunes. We were chosen to carry their name in Switzerland, because we share the same demand for quality, rigour and made-to-measure service. The magic worked between us straight away. – Michael Ortiz.

An expanded offering for a demanding clientele

In the interests of clarity and efficiency, PRIVALIA is now creating 2 specific divisions in addition to its current services:

• The Prestige division, dedicated to exceptional residential property, with a confidential approach, supported by professionals experienced in dealing with wealthy international clients.
• The Commercial Real Estate division, focused on professional assets, yield properties and strategic projects, serving corporate, institutional and private investors.

These are complemented by the following services: residential sales, management and marketing of new projects, residential lettings and strategic property consultancy.

With this structure, PRIVALIA aims to meet the most specific expectations of its Swiss and international clients. Experience is at the heart of its mission: each mandate is treated with discretion, precision and personalisation, like a house of real estate transaction craftsmen.

Access to new horizon

At a time when many brands are seeking growth through sheer size, PRIVALIA is taking a different gamble: that of tailor-made excellence, backed up by an agile structure connected to first-rate global relays.

Thanks to this partnership, PRIVALIA benefits from preferential access to international communication tools and services, selective distribution programmes and enhanced visibility with wealthy clients in London, Paris, Monaco, New York and Dubai. This global reach enables the Geneva-based real estate house to present Swiss properties in increasingly global contexts, without ever relinquishing the finesse of its local support.

PRIVALIA’s membership of a dynamic family group, alongside its sister company REALYS SA, strengthens its ability to offer a complete value chain to its customers. This unique positioning enables the group to offer a cross-disciplinary, coordinated approach to property issues, in response to the needs of private individuals and investors.

“This prestigious strategic link is part of the natural evolution of our business. Faced with growing demand from a demanding international clientele, joining one of the world’s most respected networks enables us to amplify our vision and enhance the experience we offer” – Christophe Ortiz.
