The SKY Sotheby’s Difference

Like the genesis of so many successful businesses, SKY Sotheby’s International Realty began with a mission. The mission was simple: to elevate the public’s perception of real estate brokerage and set the platinum standard for the luxury real estate experience.

Through our exclusive affiliation with Sotheby’s, every customer is ensured access to the most qualified buyers and the most extraordinary properties in the world. Regardless of price point, SKY Sotheby’s selling clients each receive a customized, property-specific marketing plan, featuring local, national and international exposure. Similarly, our buying clients are serviced with a consistent level of commitment, expertise and discretion.

SKY Sotheby’s offers equity ownership to the entire organization, which allows us to attract and retain the best and brightest in the real estate industry. Each SKY Sotheby’s agent adheres to the highest standards ever established for service levels and overall productivity within the real estate industry.

Our employee-owned company has enjoyed unprecedented momentum and unusual success. Our network consists of 6,800 sales associates, with 450 offices in 25 countries and territories. Since the company’s founding in 2004, SKY Sotheby’s International Realty has experienced consistent, dynamic growth each year, and by the end of 2007 had generated over $600 million in transaction and established additional lines of business including luxury real estate auctions, commercial sales and project marketing.

Co-founder and President, Chad Roffers, oversees the firm’s operations and strategic growth. With his extensive corporate background and high level of expertise in business strategy and development, Chad has been instrumental in leading SKY Sotheby’s International Realty to where it is today.

A graduate of the University of Colorado with a B.A. in Political Science and the University of Denver with an M.B.A., Chad has enjoyed success as a Corporate Executive and Business Development specialist for US WEST (now Qwest), Cendant (now Realogy), and Ad Auction.com. Prior to forming SKY Sotheby's, Chad learned the real estate brokerage business from the ground up and became one of the top-producing associates with Michael Saunders & Company, the former Sotheby’s Affiliate in Southwest Florida.

As for the future, SKY Sotheby’s International Realty remains committed to setting the ultimate standard of excellence within the luxury real estate market.
