Dragon and the Pearls

Making Our Market Matter to Asia

Asian homebuyers have been a staple consumer of properties in Vancouver, BC, San Francisco and Los Angeles for many years. More recently, alternative West Coast markets like Seattle, Newport and San Diego have gained in visibility and even a preference given their relative value and lifestyle attributes. We are positioning ourselves to be a major catalyst for Asian home buying throughout the West Coast. 

The Seattle-based real estate firm has partnered with key brokers, overseas wealth managers, immigration specialists and other centers of influence through the Pacific Rim to showcase the Pacific Northwest lifestyle. Known as The Dragon and the Pearls, the campaign targets Asia (mostly China) as the "Dragon" and arrays a string of "Pearl" destination markets along the West Coast.
