Coldwell Banker Lightbourn Realty has launched a Concierge and Property Management division, making it a full service real estate company.

Mike Lightbourn, president of Coldwell Banker Lightbourn Realty, said the new division is in keeping with his company’s projected growth plan.

The new service covers vacation rentals, property staging, coordinating general home maintenance, repairs and renovations, concierge relocation services, bill payment and custom tailored management packages.

Owen Shepard, with a background in real estate and construction, heads the new division.

Mr Shephard said the company provides a turnkey service and takes the hassle out of relocation, home ownership, sales and rentals.

Relocation services also cover helping expatriates with the school enrolment process for their children, or application for membership into clubs and marinas.

The home staging aspect concentrates on making properties appealing to the highest number of prospects with the goal of selling homes faster and maximising profits.
