Sterling Bahamas Realty was the latest real estate firm allowing prospective buyers to tour a piece of paradise.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, February 1, the Harbour Bay firm offered serious buyers and those who love to browse beautiful homes a chance to walk through One Ocean,\u00a0a development offering brand new two and three bedroom residences, along with four bedroom penthouses in the heart of Paradise Island.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe open house allowed those interested individuals to get a feel for what it would be like to live there,\u201d said Robyn Davis,\u00a0Sterling\u2019s senior real estate agent and vice president.<\/p>\n
Since its establishment in 2014, the firm reportedly sold more than $30M in luxury real estate in gated communities around The Bahamas including New Providence, Grand Bahama, Harbour Island and Abaco.\u00a0The firm currently has 10 agents.<\/p>\n
The full service, boutique real estate agency isn\u2019t new to the Paradise Island market. In fact, the firm launched itself with an open house on PI, marketing a $6.5 million home in Ocean Club Estates.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe firm turns three this month and we thought it fitting to mark the occasion with an open house that takes us back to where we started,\u201d said real estate broker and president, Lamond Davis.<\/p>\n
\u201cAmongst our first listings were Ocean Club Estates homes, one we sold in two weeks. We\u2019re hoping to make the magic happen again with One Ocean,\u201d said Mr Davis, who recently earned his Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS)\u00a0designation from The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing.<\/p>\n

This latest open house certainly made a positive impact on those who attended.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love the development. It is gorgeous, really spectacular,\u201d said Paula Stuart. \u201cWhat I really like is the three bedroom condo. It met my needs. It had everything that I expected and it was just beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n
One Ocean fulfilled Sheba Gibbs\u2019 idea of \u201ca dream home away from home.\u201d
\n\u201cOne Ocean is fabulous,\u201d she said. \u201cThe interior was top notch and the views were spectacular from every room.\u201d<\/p>\n
Equally impressed was Eugene Lockhart. \u201cI think the development is absolutely beautiful. The homes are really spacious,\u201d he said. \u201cThe entire set-up is very high end. I appreciated the entire lay-out. I loved all the design elements. I would imagine the sunrise and the sunsets would be awesome I\u2019m sure.\u201d<\/p>\n
The intimate open house drew out a few residents who mingled with guests over wine and hors d’oeuvres.<\/p>\n
A Canadian investor, who preferred to remain anonymous, purchased his three-bedroom condo at One Ocean in 2006. He relocated to The Bahamas four years later, in 2010 to take up full time residency.<\/p>\n
What he loves most about One Ocean? \u201cI like that it\u2019s in The Bahamas on Paradise Island and I have my boat right there at the dock.\u201d Caption: Scenes from Sterling Bahamas Realty\u00a0open house at One Ocean on Wednesday, February.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Real estate firm holds open house at upscale development<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41,"featured_media":183753,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_10223285771444175_51037792744":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[3,204],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-183752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-featured"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/41"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=183752"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183752\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/183753"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=183752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bahamasb2b.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=183752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
