Christie’s International Real Estate Group, the exclusive affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate serving New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, is thrilled to announce the newest addition to their team, seasoned real estate executive Melissa True. True will serve as Team Leader of Christie’s new Flatiron office, where she will focus on agent development and experience.
True brings over two decades of experience in New York City real estate to Christie’s and aspires to help further the firm’s goals of continued expansion across Manhattan, bringing in new agents that represent the Christie’s brand.
“I’m proud to represent the Christie’s brand– a name synonymous with luxury,” True remarks. “My goal is to help agents harness that power to grow their businesses. Beyond the brand itself, it’s the incredible culture embedded within Christie’s that resonates with me — it perfectly aligns with one of my core beliefs: you must love where you work.”
Prior to joining the Christie’s team, True was a founding member of TOWN’s executive team where she was responsible for integrated marketing, sales, research, development, retention, education, and agent engagement. She later went on to hold the title of Senior Manager of Culture and Careers at Douglas Elliman, where she was tasked with managing relationships with agents, developing growth strategies, maintaining company culture, and supporting managers. Most recently, she was a Sales Director at Platinum Properties.
In her sales career, Melissa has achieved over $200 million in residential real estate transactions, underscoring her sharp market knowledge and passion for the business. Her real estate journey began at just 14 years old when she sold her first condo, marking the start of a lifelong dedication to the industry.
“We’re excited to welcome Melissa as Team Leader at our Flatiron Office,” says Ilija Pavlovic, President & CEO of Christie’s International Real Estate Group. “Her exceptional talent for connecting agents with brokerage brands will be invaluable as she builds a team that truly understands, represents, and embodies Christie’s brand.”
