Christen Sachs is redefining real estate on the Jersey Shore with her innovative approach to leveraging media and technology. As the Managing Director of Nest Seekers International in Rumson, NJ, she’s not just selling homes; she’s selling experiences and lifestyles.

Christen’s journey into real estate began with her entrepreneurial spirit. She started her first business at age 10, demonstrating a natural knack for leadership and creativity. “I’ve always been more creative, and leading came very naturally, wanting all of my agents to succeed,” she says. This drive led her to start multiple businesses before settling into real estate.

In her role at Nest Seekers, Christen employs cutting-edge technology to showcase properties in the best possible light. Virtual tours, drone footage, and AI-driven marketing are just a few of the tools she uses. “Buyers today are tech-savvy and expect more than just pictures. They want to experience the property before they even visit,” she explains. This approach not only attracts buyers but also sets her listings apart.

A notable statistic from the National Association of Realtors indicates that 97% of homebuyers use the Internet in some way in their home search process, underscoring the importance of digital innovation in today’s real estate market.

But for Christen, it’s not just about technology; it’s about telling a story. “Every home has a unique story, and it’s my job to convey that story to potential buyers,” she shares. By focusing on storytelling, she helps buyers envision their lives in the properties she represents.

Her innovative methods are paying off. Nest Seekers Rumson is celebrating its second year at the Jersey Shore and has recently hired more top talent, including HGTV’s celebrity contractor Eric Eremita. “Having Eric join our team is a testament to the reputation and culture we’ve built,” Christen notes. The addition of Eremita and several other talented agents highlights the office’s growing influence and success.

Nest Seekers International, under the leadership of Eddie Shapiro, has always been at the nexus of technology and media. Founded in 2002, the brokerage has continuously evolved, becoming a household name across multiple luxury destinations. “Nest Seekers has established itself as a market leader, specializing in Ultra Luxury and New Development,” Christen explains. With over $100 billion in transactions globally, the firm is synonymous with luxury and excellence.

Christen’s vision for the future is ambitious. She aims to quadruple her business’s revenue in the coming years, supported by her new media venture with creative partner Stephanie Matzek. “Media and branding have been our priority from the start. We’re not just selling homes; we’re selling dreams,” she emphasizes. This focus on media is set to further enhance her real estate business. 

Christen also fosters a supportive environment for her team. “Success in real estate today requires a multi-platform strategy,” she believes. By equipping her 30 agents with the tools and support they need, Christen ensures that the Nest Seekers Rumson office remains a leader in the industry.  “We don’t follow trends, we set them!” Christen shares.

For aspiring real estate professionals, Christen offers sound advice. “Prepare for a marathon. Be ready to make sacrifices and embrace resilience and perseverance. Focus on building your brand identity,” she advises. Her own journey is a testament to the power of creativity, determination, and a forward-thinking approach.

In a market that demands constant innovation, Christen Sachs stands out as a leader. Her unique blend of media expertise and real estate knowledge has transformed her business and set new industry standards. As she continues to push boundaries, it’s clear that Christen is a visionary shaping the future of real estate.
