The Robbs Real Estate Legacy Provides Local Knowledge, Worldwide Network on Mercer Island and Beyond
Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty (RSIR) announces the addition of Jennie Robbs to their growing global real estate network. A mother-daughter partnership since 1994, Kris Robbs proudly passes her torch to the next generation of real estate excellence within a family lineage of successful brokers serving the close-knit market of Mercer Island and surrounding metro area.
“My retirement from an industry I truly love follows a lifetime of commitment to our clients and now I bestow this legacy to my deserving daughter,” said Kris. “I could not be more proud of Jennie and the reputation we built together, an extension of the one my mother built and shared with me. This is an opportunity I’ve been working towards and have looked forward to for many years.”
Three generations in the making, the Robbs name is “as good as sold” within the local Mercer Island community and beyond. Consistently ranked among the top ten most productive brokers for decades on the “Rock,” as it’s locally known, Jennie recognizes that the Robbs name also needs to provide a broader reach within a global marketplace. Her regional representation includes many communities off the island, in addition to interstate and even international destinations, which led her decision to join RSIR. She is drawn to their award-winning marketing, position as a global referral resource and access to five regional offices to better serve her expanding market reach.
“I’m honored to represent my family name alongside Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty as we align interests, innovate, and deliver extraordinary client services,” said Jennie. “My depth of knowledge has been cultivated by tremendous mentors and a passion to fulfill the wishes of our clients, whether that is a one room vacation home in Ashford, WA or 100’ of West facing waterfront on Mercer Island.”
A graduate of the University of Washington, Jennie enjoys a background in corporate marketing and public relations with a four-year tenure in New York City. Broadly respected within the brokerage sphere, Jennie is a Realtor® and a member of the invitation-only Forum XXII real estate network. Jennie is an ongoing member of PEO (philanthropic educational organization providing the advancement of woman worldwide), and an active member of the Mercer Island Preschool Association, which organizes yearly events, raising funds to improve community playgrounds, and provide scholarships to families in need.
“We are thrilled to welcome Jennie and the Robbs legacy to our company,” said Stacy Jones, Owner and Vice President of RSIR. “Mercer Island is an important market to our firm – it’s our home and a community that we share and serve together. We all advance in great company.”
