PHUKET: LJ Hooker today announced a strategic agreement with Thailand's luxury real estate group, Siam Real Estate, as it continues to expand its service offerings and brand in Asia.
Georg Chmiel, LJ Hooker CEO, said the agreement will primarily expand the geographic reach, lead generation and business opportunities for both companies.
LJ Hooker's Australasian network of 700 offices, supported by a dedicated team of over 8000 real estate professionals, will now leverage Siam's network of offices in Bangkok, Phuket, Pattaya, Hua Hin and Samui.
The strategic alliance will focus on referrals for listings and buyers in their respective markets.
This is the first arrangement of its nature for LJ Hooker in Thailand where they are not yet represented by offices on the ground.
It's another step forward in continuing to build the brand throughout the world, said Mr Chmiel.
Siam Real Estate was established in 2003 by expat-Englishmen Richard and his son Patrick Lusted and now boasts more than 4000 property listings along with its own development arm focusing on the creation of luxury villas, apartments and land subdivision.
Richard Lusted said they are always looking for quality opportunities to extend their real estate footprint and share knowledge and resources on property investment opportunities in Thailand.
''We are pleased to align with LJ Hooker, Australia's most respected real estate group.
''This agreement will extend the reach of our business into Australia's marketplace for those looking to buy or rent holiday homes in Thailand and will provide LJ Hooker with valuable local knowledge and properties in this emerging marketplace,'' he said.
