Clients of The Agency now have access to a sophisticated alternative to traditional luxury property sales through our strategic partnership with Interluxe Auctions. This collaboration provides our clients with enhanced selling options and introduces many to the auction model—a proven method that has facilitated nearly $700 million in luxury real estate transactions across 30 states and territories, according to Interluxe.
Interluxe’s approach maintains the service and discretion that The Agency clients would expect, while leveraging cutting-edge auction technology to expand global buyer reach. Their platform creates a transparent bidding environment where pre-qualified buyers compete for exceptional properties within a structured timeline—typically 45 days. Their proprietary database connects home sellers with qualified international buyers who might not otherwise encounter a listing through traditional marketing channels.
“We’re excited to partner with Interluxe Auctions and deliver an alternative sales solution for our agents and clients,” said Mauricio Umansky, Founder and CEO of The Agency. “Our partnership with Interluxe Auctions allows us to continue pushing the envelope by giving our agents and clients access to a proven, transparent, and accelerated sales process with a trusted partner who shares our passion for innovation, white-glove service, and exceptional results.”
Interluxe Auctions will serve as the exclusive auction partner for The Agency, providing an enhanced suite of services available immediately to agents and clients across The Agency’s global network. In addition to being presented to The Agency’s international clients and network of agents, auction properties will be presented to Interluxe’s curated network of international high-net-worth buyers—ones who have demonstrated both financial qualification and serious purchase intent.
“We are thrilled to align with a visionary company like The Agency,” said Scott Kirk, President of Interluxe Auctions. “This partnership is a natural fit — both companies are relentlessly focused on elevating the client experience, and together, we’ll offer sellers of luxury homes a compelling advantage through greater market visibility, faster sales timelines, and data-driven strategy. We look forward to delivering results that exceed expectations.”
The auction process addresses several realities of today’s luxury market. Properties that might otherwise remain on the market for extended periods can achieve resolution within weeks. The competitive nature of the auction environment often reveals true market value through active bidding. Additionally, unlike the open-ended nature of conventional listings and sales, the auction process provides sellers with a structured timeline, defined terms, and pre-prepared due diligence.
As always, The Agency seeks to provide clients with the best options tailored to each client’s unique circumstances and goals. The auction model may be particularly relevant for those who own unique properties or sellers who have a particular timeline in mind.
