Editor’s Letter from Dreams Ultimate Estates 2018
Real estate is on my mind to start 2018. Not just any real estate. Luxury real estate. The best of the best luxury properties. The kind of real estate that catches the eye of the 1% of the 1%. DREAM real estate – that is what’s on my mind.
In our annual real estate issue, we’re joined by industry icons and legends of the world famous real estate in Beverly Hills and Hollywood, the posh family enclave of La Cañada Flintridge, and brokers of masterpiece compounds in the desert. Inside are exclusive interviews with top professionals who all have impeccable reputations for being best-in-class and the biggest power players in their industry.
We take you to the top 10 listings by price in each of the four core areas of the Dreams Region: West LA, San Gabriel Valley, Coastal, and Las Vegas. Take a look at our red-hot front cover and you’re gazing at a property that will forever hold a place in LA real estate lore: The Stanley House. This home was developed and is listed by megastars Branden and Rayni Williams, who I sit down with for an in-depth interview. We take you from ritzy seaside escapes and the worlds-tallest penthouses, to the historic dwellings in London’s finest neighborhoods. Our collection of international estates displays the top of the market stretching far beyond our borders.
Our What’s New Guru Don Logay reveals the future in architectural design with a look at using virtual reality to create the home you’ve always imagined. Plus, a roundup of interior designers provides insight into the style and design trends driving 2018. Our team speaks with several prominent designers who share their knowledge about designing your dream home.
DREAMS listened to the advice of many and made the investment to have Las Vegas become our second home. A burgeoning desert oasis of the Pacific Rim, Vegas is a place of entertainment, relaxation, commerce, and now our DREAMS Vegas publication. We introduce you to influential people such as premier VIP tour provider Connie Chiang of Pilot Holdings USA, a company that creates unforgettable excursions for the Chinese elite.
Real estate launches our 2018 in spectacular fashion, as we have put together a who’s who of the elite individuals and properties in this timeless industry. Join me on this tour of the world’s Ultimate Estates and luxury lifestyles.
