Christie’s, originally founded in 1766 by James Christie, pursued an innovative real estate venture in 1995 by acquiring Great Estates, a luxury real estate network founded in 1987. Christie’s International Real Estate is an affiliate network and has offices in London, New York, Hong Kong, Beverly Hills, Chicago, and Palm Beach; and more than 135 affiliated brokerages [2] in Europe; North, Central, and South America; and the Caribbean as well as Asia, Africa, and Oceania.[1] On January 11, 2011, the company changed its name from Christie’s Great Estates to Christie's International Real Estate.
