Wrought iron and glass front doors complement the timeless limestone façade and center the two wings of the home. An 85-foot great hall extends to either side, giving the space a sense of balance and grandeur.

The East Wing is anchored by the chef’s kitchen featuring dual Viking ranges beneath an antique Duparquet, Huot & Monesue Co. white cast iron hood.

Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty Launches a Cloud-based Technology Suite for Agents

Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty has announced a launch of a new cloud-based tech suite, “MCSIR Connect”, for its agents. The firm, built with technology in mind, continues to be the region’s most technologically advanced real estate company by offering agents a toolbox for simplifying the buying and selling process, marketing properties to a global audience, and matching each buyer with the perfect home. “MCSIR Connect” is a single sign-on customized and mobile-friendly portal that integrates all of the brokerage’s agent resources into a centralized hub. Within the portal, agents can access a variety of data targeted to their individual business, including company resources, and prevalent software. With the goal of providing agents with simple and easy access to all tools available, the firm has implemented a “best of breed” solution of top-of-the-line products and services in order to remain at the forefront of luxury brokerages.

 

Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty, an early adopter of the MoxiWorks suite, has enabled agents with a robust platform of real estate technology built on four pillars. In addition to the newly redesigned consumer-facing brokerage website, the firm has introduced its agents to MoxiEngage, a CRM designed to keep clients organized, increase productivity, and strengthen relationships. Agents have access to MoxiPresent, a top-notch CMA tool and presentation builder complete with endless creative opportunities, MoxiImpress, a simple and automated marketing tool geared toward time-saving and business driving, and MoxiWebsites, an easy-to-use website builder for agents to get found, sell homes, and grow business.

 

The integration of MoxiWorks is the latest installment of cutting-edge technology the firm has rolled out recently. In May 2019, Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty launched a partnership with Buyside, a web-based platform that delivers predictive analytics to homeowners with a complete picture of the demand of any property. In November 2020, the firm introduced an award-winning home platform search, RealScout, allowing clients an improved and comprehensive experience throughout the home buying and selling process. RealScout’s collaborative search platform features technology that puts clients back in the center of the conversation with their agents. In February 2021, the firm rolled out Testimonial Tree, an automated system to help agents capture more testimonials. Most recently, the MCSIR Ad Tracker was launched in May of 2021. This new intranet site allows agents to easily search for listings and see all recent activity done by the in-house marketing department.

“We have a way of uniting extraordinary homes with extraordinary lives,” adds Judy Chace, Broker/Co-Owner of Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty. “We are some of the most talented real estate advisors in southern New England, we know luxury, and we have state-of-the-art technology behind us.”

Coupled with the extensive Sotheby’s International Realty® tech stack available to affiliate brokerages, the firm continues to innovate and use technology to help clients succeed.  As a result, Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty did $766M in sales volume in 2020. *

“It is our mission to provide our clients with the world-class service and property exposure they expect when working with a Sotheby’s International Realty® affiliate,” said Ray Mott, Broker/Co-Owner of Mott & Chace Sotheby’s International Realty. “Our insatiable need to innovate and lead with technology helps us achieve that goal each day.”

“The greatest compliment in our industry is when the buyer of a property asks us to represent them as a seller,” says Judy Chace. “We were delighted to be able to complete this transaction with very positive outcomes. We appreciate a great co-brokering agent on the other side who helped make this a smooth process. As we say in this business, teamwork makes the dream work!”

Erin Marsh adds, “We wish the new owners much happiness with their ocean home project.”
