Collins & Company Inc.

Real Estate

Claire Collins, owner of Collins & Company, Inc., a boutique South Florida-based real estate brokerage and property management firm, offers over 30 years of experience in the locational, transactional and administrative skills of buying and selling real property. Plus, she understands the Boca Raton, Delray Beach and South Florida markets. “I am a broker,” she says, “but my business model is very different.”

As property management experts, they service all sized homes and investment properties. The team works with owners and boards, handling every aspect of tasks at hand. “Much of what I do is sight unseen,” she says. “My clients rely on me to help them through the complexities of their transactions from afar.”

They also offer a personalized concierge service. If you need home and affair management services while you’re away, they can help. Or, if you need a home service recommendation, turn to Collins. 

Her business is referral-based. “I work for the best interest of the people I serve,” she says. Collins speaks multiple languages, including fluent French.  Her team of eight — which she raves about — take on clients ranging from millennials to baby boomers to the elderly. 

Born in England, Collins was raised in Monte Carlo where she started her career as house manager and private secretary, scheduling personal affairs and projects for the Duchess of Bedford and Viscount Cowdray. This role required discipline and attention to detail. These skills transferred to her favorite part of the job — managing the home’s operation and upkeep. “I’m a little bit of a different bird from a different background.”

She moved to the United States some 30 years ago. After marrying and raising three children in South Florida, Collins launched a real estate brokerage career. She has represented developers in upscale communities in Palm Beach County and understands all facets of real estate from lot selections to floor plans to design details and upgrades. “I’m focused and detail-oriented.”

She was appointed to the Professional Standards Committee for the National Association of Realtors in 2017. They ensure that the Code of Ethics is interpreted and understood correctly.
