Realty sales and marketing are core business functions but every department is truly synchronized to work closely ensuring the organization works as a unit to achieve unified goals. Unique Selling Proposition / Competitive Advantage: Being a boutique sales brokerage firm, achievement of sales are always the high point of every career for any leader in the scenario.
