So if you want to sell such a property, you will ask yourself: How<x id=\"gid_3\"><\/x>can I win over this attractive target group for<x id=\"gid_4\"><\/x>me? You will probably first have to decide whether to entrust the marketing to an estate agent with an international presence or to someone here in the region who hopefully already knows how to do it. The answer is: Rely on a regional partner with a proven international network.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>Proven expertise within the local market is essential<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Reputable international networks only accept members who have a proven track record and highly trained and competent employees in their region. These potential partners are examined in detail,<x id=\"gid_1\"><\/x>and only the best in a market area<x id=\"gid_2\"><\/x>have the chance to become a member at<x id=\"gid_3\"><\/x>in this multi-stage admission process. This is because it is not financial criteria<x id=\"gid_4\"><\/x>or a high brand rent that are relevant, but exclusively qualitative ones.<x id=\"gid_5\"><\/x>This is the only way to ensure the long-term success<x id=\"gid_6\"><\/x>of all those involved. This is in stark contrast<x id=\"gid_7\"><\/x>to international franchise companies that operate by granting licenses: The international<x id=\"gid_8\"><\/x>brand grants a license to a<x id=\"gid_9\"><\/x>Swiss entrepreneur. The latter then grants another license to the subcontractor in Graub\u00fcnden. And the latter then<x id=\"gid_10\"><\/x>another one to someone in the Engadine. In this way, the Swiss licensee can neither check nor influence the quality, reputation and training standards of the local brokers.       In addition to specialist knowledge, the access of a top regional broker to the relevant networks in this segment is therefore crucial.  &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Because only the right network leads to the right target group<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ginesta Immobilien has successfully passed the demanding application processes of two of the most important networks and has been a member of &#8220;Leading Real Estate Companies of the World&#8221; and &#8220;Knight Frank&#8221; for many years.
