NEW YORK, Aug. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sotheby's
International Realty is pleased to announce that top
Manhattan agents Caroline Guthrie, Kathryn Steinberg and Armin Allen have joined the company's Upper East
Side Manhattan Brokerage. Guthrie, Steinberg and Allen join
Sotheby's International Realty from the former Edward Lee Cave
Division at Brown Harris Stevens. Edward
Lee Cave, Chief Auctioneer and former head of
decorative arts at Sotheby's auction house, was a founding chairman
of Sotheby's International Realty in 1976 with the notion that an
auction company that sells art that hangs on walls could also sell
the walls on which the art hangs.
"We are delighted to welcome Caroline, Kathyrn and
Armin to Sotheby's International Realty," says Marissa
Ghesquiere, Senior Vice President of Sales
and Brokerage Manager of Sotheby's International
Realty – Upper East Side Manhattan Brokerage. "Already experts in
the Manhattan market, they wanted to provide their clients an
international platform to market their properties. The power
of the Sotheby's International Realty brand will
accelerate each of their continued
successes."
"I started my career with Edward Lee
Cave, and spent twenty-five years working closely with him
so joining Sotheby's International Realty completes the circle for
me," notes Caroline Guthrie when
elaborating on her move. "Sellers today want their properties to
receive maximum exposure in every corner of the globe and no other
real estate brokerage has the global reach that Sotheby's
International Realty offers."
In addition to being one of Manhattan's most successful agents,
Caroline Guthrie was formerly
Executive Vice President, Managing Director of Sales for the
Madison Avenue office of Brown Harris Stevens. She has achieved
close to a billion dollars in sales volume over the course
over her 30-year career and she has been honored with numerous
awards.

seller of 740 Park Avenue, former home of John D. Rockefeller Jr., and 834 Fifth Avenue
which sold after 10 days for more than $10M over asking.
