Tulsa’s Luxury Presented to Worldwide Audience

Key Biscayne, Florida

Tulsa will be represented at the Spring Conference for Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate in Key Biscayne Florida. Tulsa’s representative for the organization, Darryl Baskin of McGraw Realtors says the event will draw two hundred of the world’s most esteemed real estate brokers for business development and networking. Luxuryrealestate.com is the world’s leading web site for luxury properties and is the web portal for the Who’s Who group.
“Representing Tulsa in a distinguished group like this is a real honor” Baskin says. “Not only do we have a cultured city worthy of attention, our prices for comparable luxury make people look twice at what we have to offer.” Baskin notes his last conference in Chicago was an opportunity to discuss the merits Tulsa has for business opportunities and investment. “Most luxury home buyers have a strong business interest. This means appealing to the luxury buyer as a viable location for a home can have ancillary benefits such as business relocation. It is common to have the opportunity to present a scenario to prospects that operating a business in Tulsa at a lower operating costs and owning a luxury home in Tulsa still affords the opportunity to own other luxury properties for second homes and vacations in other parts of the world because our housing costs are so reasonable.”
This is no new idea. Baskin notes that while selling the Skelly Mansion some years ago and studying the history of the home, he was impressed by the persistence of Mr. Skelly to show Tulsa’s attractiveness to the world. Mr. Skelly traveled the world as a delegate for the city often not in any official capacity. He even added onto his home in order to bring large groups to town and entertain them. He understood the importance of his guests leaving to say good things about Tulsa.
