<strong>Julie</strong> <strong>Gelfond</strong><br />

Known for her dedication to buyers and sellers is<br />

what has set <strong>Julie</strong> <strong>Gelfond</strong> apart from other realtors.<br />

<strong>Julie</strong> <strong>Gelfond</strong>, a REALTOR ® for Coldwell Banker<br />

Previews International has continuously ranked in<br />

the top 1% of REALTORS ® in the country and has<br />

been awarded the International President Elite<br />

award for the last several years. <strong>Julie</strong> has received<br />

other numerous awards recognizing her distinction<br />

as a successful REALTOR ® , business leader and<br />

community advocate.<br />

<strong>Julie</strong> states; “My philosophy is to meet the wants<br />

and needs of my clients, and go beyond their<br />

expectations. This is what guides my relationship<br />

with each client.” <strong>Julie</strong> adds; “Real estate is not<br />

only about the property . . . it is about the people<br />

as well.” A positive and successful experience for<br />

both buyers and sellers is her ultimate goal.<br />

<strong>Julie</strong>’s business experience has given her the<br />

confidence to be an exceptionally successful<br />

negotiator for her clients. She has over twentyfive<br />

years of being an internationally known and<br />

respected antique and fine arts dealer. Traveling<br />

continents, dealing with international buyers and<br />

sellers along with her many years as a teacher and<br />

mentor have given her the uncanny ability of<br />

dealing with people in all situations.<br />

<strong>Julie</strong>’s dedication to her clients has been rewarded<br />

in the knowledge that more than 70% of her<br />

business is from returning clients or client<br />

referrals. <strong>Julie</strong>’s integrity and knowledge of the<br />

real estate market is evident in her number one<br />

priority—“client satisfaction.” This is better<br />

illustrated by a recent testimonial of a satisfied<br />

client. “As a Wall Street CEO, I recognize superior<br />

salesmanship and services when I see it. <strong>Julie</strong><br />

listened intently and understood what we wanted<br />

our property needs anywhere in the world.”<br />

<strong>Julie</strong> <strong>Gelfond</strong>’s name is synonymous internationally<br />

with buying and selling high luxury real<br />

estate. <strong>Julie</strong> has actively purchased, developed new<br />

getting to know my clients on a personal level, I am<br />

able to easily locate properties that will meet their<br />

individual and unique needs.” <strong>Julie</strong> enjoys helping<br />

clients through the entire process, even after the<br />

clients feel comfortable and develop long-standing<br />

relationships with them. Another client states<br />

“Recently we had the pleasure of meeting and<br />

purchasing a luxury condominium through <strong>Julie</strong><br />

<strong>Gelfond</strong>. We had purchased and sold numerous<br />

homes in the past, in the multimillion dollar range,<br />

and have never been so impressed with her<br />

professionalism and attention to detail.”<br />

<strong>Julie</strong> states “Selling or purchasing a home is like<br />

a recipe, there are certain ingredients that are<br />

essential to make it work, and every recipe is<br />

different.” Those ingredients can be identified as:<br />

industry knowledge, expert negotiation skills and<br />

a creative and innovative marketing plan.<br />

Real estate is a family activity in the <strong>Gelfond</strong><br />

household. Working together with <strong>Julie</strong> is her<br />

husband, Lawrence <strong>Gelfond</strong>, a well-known<br />

forensic CPA who also holds real estate licenses in<br />

Colorado and Florida. His financial background<br />

enables them to meet the needs of the more<br />

sophisticated investor in dealing with structural<br />

transactions such as 1031 tax fee exchanges or the<br />

tax impact of a specific purchase or sale. They take<br />

great pride in their unique working relationship<br />

and ability to work with clients together. When not<br />

working, they enjoy traveling around the world<br />

and sharing in the joys of their extended family<br />

including a very special German Shepard, Axel,<br />

who is the third member of the <strong>Gelfond</strong> Team!<br />
