Platinum Properties, a Keyes Family Company, announces that luxury real estate veteran Candace McIntosh has rejoined the company. Platinum Properties operates as one of Keyes’ luxury residential real estate divisions.

With nearly 15 years of experience as a licensed real estate agent, McIntosh continues to have success representing buyers and sellers in northern Palm Beach County. As a top producer, McIntosh has generated $12 million in sales since the beginning of 2015. She serves an affluent client base in Jupiter, Tequesta and Hobe Sound.

McIntosh has spent most of her career with Platinum Properties. She returns to the firm after a stint at the Jupiter office of Keller Williams.

In Jupiter’s Mallory Creek, McIntosh listed a property and secured a buyer in just six hours. The transaction was one of the highest sale prices per square foot in that community. She will be bringing another Mallory Creek listing to market in late February.

Before earning her real estate license, McIntosh developed a passion for real estate by investing in property in Utah, Washington and New Mexico, where she grew up.

Independently-owned and operated since its founding in 1926, Keyes is extremely active in luxury residential real estate. In addition to Platinum Properties, Keyes has Valore Group, which is also a division of Keyes Luxury. The combined companies are a premier luxury leader.

Keyes annually sells $650 million in luxury homes priced at $1 million or more. The company expects to grow its annual sales velocity in that category to more than $1 billion.

“We are so excited to have Candace on our team,” said James Kirvin, Chief Executive Officerof Platinum Properties. “She is an extremely knowledgeable real estate professional who has exceptional marketing skills. Candace is constantly a top producer in the northern Palm Beach County market, and she is the type of agent we are trying to attract to our company.”

“I’m thrilled to be back because at Platinum Propertiesis one of the finest companies you could ever work for,” said McIntosh. “For me, everything from professional marketing tools, boutique style and hands-on approach is very appealing.”

In 2014, McIntosh received the President’s Elite Award from Platinum Properties. She was also recognized as Top Producer in 2012 and 2013.
