Some milestones mark the natural growth of a business, while others open doors to new opportunities. Our membership with Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® and Luxury Portfolio International® is one of those significant moments.
We are excited to share that The Cooper Group is now officially part of both networks, which are among the most respected organizations in global real estate. LeadingRE connects over 550 independently owned agencies across 70 countries, representing more than 129,000 sales associates worldwide. Luxury Portfolio International® highlights the world’s most exceptional homes. Membership is not merely a formality; it is granted based on strict standards for service quality, market performance, and professional behaviour.
As Debbie says, “This is a milestone we are incredibly proud of, and it offers meaningful advantages to our clients.”
Your Property, on a Global Stage
For sellers, the most immediate benefit is increased reach. Until now, most New Zealand agencies, including ours, marketed through local property sites. That changes now.
With these networks, your home is shown to qualified buyers around the world. This audience extends well beyond our immediate market. Luxury Portfolio International places your property alongside a curated collection of high-quality homes from different countries, exposing it to discerning buyers who are actively looking at this level. LeadingRE® connects us directly with top independent agencies in more than 70 countries and their clients.
In practical terms, this means:
- Greater exposure to high-value and international buyers
- Targeted marketing that reaches beyond New Zealand
- More referral opportunities through a global network of proven agents
For buyers, it opens property opportunities and connections across the globe.
Why This Feels Right for The Cooper Group
When The Cooper Group was founded in 2017, the goal was to provide a level of service and marketing that Nelson and Tasman’s finest homes truly deserve. We focus on presentation, client relationships, and attention to detail. It has always been about offering something unique to this region, not just keeping up with it.
LeadingRE® and Luxury Portfolio International® share this same philosophy: exceptional real estate comes from independent businesses that know their markets well. This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to combine local expertise with genuine global reach.
Joining this network does not change who we are; it enhances our identity.
