Wholly owned by Christie's, the world's leading art business, Christie's International Real Estate is represented in more than 40 countries. Carimo Real Estate joins this carefully selected organization of brokerages with proven records of success in both high-end property sales and exemplary client service.
“Carimo Real Estate has a reputation for expertise and conscientious client service that has won the firm respect far beyond the shores of St. Martin,” says Rick Moeser, Senior Vice President of Christie’s International Real Estate. “I am delighted to welcome Carimo Real Estate to our global network.”

Situated in the northeastern part of the Caribbean, the picturesque island is separated into two parts—the northern area is an overseas collectivity of France and Sint Maarten while the southern area forms part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Comprising 37 square miles, the island is rich with history and features dozens of white-sand beaches, azure-blue lagoons, world-class resorts, duty-free shops, and high-end restaurants.
