Forbes Global Properties Expands Presence to the Channel Islands, Welcoming Forty-Eight

Set within approximately three acres of wooded hillside with breathtaking views of the valley reservoir, La Fougere is a stunning 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom residence spanning three floors that offers an exclusive opportunity to purchase a non-qualified newly built home.

Forbes Global Properties, an international network of selected real estate brokerages that connects buyers and sellers to the world’s most exceptional properties, welcomes Forty-Eight. Headquartered on a luxury offshore island, situated close to France, the business will operate from the island of Jersey and have a visible presence on the main high street and serve as the exclusive representative of the brand throughout the Channel Islands in the United Kingdom serving both Jersey and Guernsey.

Founded on a legacy that dates back to 1948, Forty-Eight brings together the team behind one of Jersey’s longest-established estate agencies and the current President of the Jersey Estate Agents’ Association (JEAA) and sets a new standard defined by discretion, personal service, and professionalism. From landmark residences to exclusive off-market opportunities, the firm curates and represents the Channel Islands’ most exceptional properties with unmatched expertise. With trusted local relationships and deep market insight, Forty-Eight is also able to help prospective international buyers navigate the island’s High Value Residency (HVR) Program, which grants exclusive property access and favorable tax benefits.

“It is a pleasure to welcome Forty-Eight to Forbes Global Properties,” said Michael Jalbert, CEO of Forbes Global Properties. “The longstanding commitment to professionalism and client-first service mirrors the values at the heart of our network, and we look forward to supporting their continued success.”

“The name Forty-Eight means ‘determined to prosper,’ and beautifully reflects our clients’ aspirations and the spirit that guides our work,” said John Quemard, Managing Director of Forty-Eight. “With the global reach and support of Forbes Global Properties, we are proud to deliver an experience that further elevates opportunity and enhances results for our valued clients.”
