Gaining significant visibility for a property is not merely a matter of good photography or a well-written listing. It requires a strategic partnership with an agency that understands both the local market nuances and the international buyer’s mindset. This is where Homes of Quality (HOQ), a specialist division of the Frank Salt Real Estate Group, truly stands apart. By listing a property with Homes of Quality, vendors are guaranteed a level of exposure - both locally and internationally - that few other agencies in Malta can rival.
This article explains how we achieve such comprehensive exposure, the unique benefits of this approach and the added advantage that stems from being part of Malta’s most established and comprehensive real estate group.
Tailored marketing on the best local and international platforms
When a property is listed with Homes of Quality, it is not merely added to a database. Instead, it enters a meticulously hand-picked portfolio of high-end homes that are actively marketed across Malta’s most prominent property portals. These include industry-leading sites such as franksalt.com.mt and HOQ’s own homesofquality.com.mt amongst others which collectively attract thousands of daily users searching for real estate within the Maltese Islands.
Beyond the local sphere, Homes of Quality ensures each qualifying property is also listed on internationally recognised platforms. These prestigious portals cater to European and global audiences and these websites are frequented by high-net-worth individuals and expatriates looking to invest in Malta - either as a lifestyle destination, retirement haven, real estate investment or a strategic foothold in the EU.
Such global syndication is executed with professional finesse: property descriptions are crafted in refined English, tailored to the international buyer and visual materials are selected to resonate with diverse cultural expectations. In essence, the property is given a stage on the world map and not just a presence in local listings.
Premium print and digital publications
Another avenue through which Homes of Quality elevates property visibility is through its collaboration with luxury property publications, both locally and abroad. Properties may feature in premium magazines and select international lifestyle titles that target affluent readers as well as our own online digital publications, adding further dimensions to the exposure.
Homes of Quality invests in the production of bespoke marketing material for qualifying properties, including brochures, floor plans and virtual tours. These assets are used across campaigns and client presentations, ensuring a consistently high standard of marketing.
Exclusive branding and refined positioning
Homes of Quality operates under a distinct brand identity within the Frank Salt Real Estate Group, designed to represent Malta’s most prestigious and character-filled properties. From period townhouses and expertly restored palazzos to cutting-edge villas and penthouses, the Homes of Quality brand ensures a level of sophistication and credibility in the market.
This unique branding positions a listed property within an elite portfolio, automatically raising its appeal to a discerning audience. In a market where perception plays a significant role, being associated with an exclusive and well-regarded brand can considerably elevate a property’s perceived value.
Furthermore, the Homes of Quality website functions as a dedicated portal where buyers seeking premium homes can browse a curated selection, away from the clutter and volume of mass-market listings. This means that a property is not only more likely to be seen, but seen by the right kind of buyer.
An international client base and overseas partnerships
Homes of Quality, through the Frank Salt Real Estate Group, benefits from an expansive client network that includes embassies, relocation consultants, foreign investment entities and financial institutions. Over decades, the group has cultivated long-standing relationships with professionals who often represent clients seeking property in Malta.
In addition, the company actively participates in international property exhibitions and investment forums across Africa, the USA, Europe and the Middle East. Properties listed with Homes of Quality are showcased in these settings, often to a targeted audience of investors, retirees and expatriates actively seeking Maltese real estate.
Few Maltese agencies have the infrastructure, resources, or reputation to engage in such proactive international outreach. As such, Homes of Quality offers its clients exposure far beyond what a typical local estate agency can provide.
Relationships with world-famous publications
Over the years, through a strategic presence at international roadshows and property exhibitions, we have cultivated enduring relationships with esteemed journalists and authors across the globe. This consistent engagement has led to our brand being prominently featured in leading international publications and forums, often accompanied by in-depth interviews with our directors. These appearances not only enhance our global visibility but also serve as an indirect yet powerful platform to showcase your property to a discerning international audience.
The power of being part of the Frank Salt Real Estate Group
Established in 1969, the Frank Salt Real Estate Group is one of Malta’s oldest and most respected real estate organisations. Its size, history and network bring numerous advantages to Homes of Quality clients.
Firstly, it provides access to the largest client and property database on the island. This cross-pollination between the mainstream and luxury divisions allows Homes of Quality to connect with both niche and mass-market opportunities where appropriate, ensuring no lead goes untapped.
Secondly, the group’s resources include a dedicated marketing team, SEO specialists, social media managers and PR professionals. These individuals work collectively to promote listings through high-visibility campaigns that blend traditional and digital media.
Thirdly, the group maintains offices in strategic locations across Malta and Gozo, ensuring properties benefit from walk-in exposure as well as online. The group’s agents receive continual training in negotiation, marketing and customer service, compliance and the latest real estate legislation, thereby ensuring that each property is represented with professionalism and care.
Why this level of exposure matters
In a competitive market, exposure is more than visibility - it is about visibility to the right people. Homes of Quality ensures that properties are not just seen, but seen by those with the desire and means to act. This targeted approach reduces time on market, improves negotiation leverage and often leads to better selling prices. This is especially true of Sole Agency agreements that usually sell within less than 80 days.
The prestige of being featured in international publications or displayed alongside Malta’s most prestigious homes can have a profound psychological effect on prospective buyers. It communicates quality, credibility and exclusivity - three pillars that are essential when selling luxury property.
Listing with us is far more than getting extensive global marketing
Homes of Quality offers a holistic approach to property services through its distinctive "Circle of Services" model - an all-encompassing, client-centred framework designed to support every stage of the property journey under one roof. This integrated service offering is tailored to provide a seamless and stress-free experience, whether one is buying, selling, letting, investing, or furnishing a home in Malta.
At the heart of this model is the client, surrounded by a full spectrum of professional services. The journey often begins with the Sales or Letting departments, guiding clients through acquiring or leasing property with unmatched local expertise. For those seeking short-term investment options or holiday accommodation, our Malta Holiday Lets team offers expert advice and management for vacation rentals, enhancing both profitability and convenience.
Post-acquisition, Homes of Quality continues to support clients with value-added services such our parent company, Frank Salt Real Estate's Home Interior Services, which assist in transforming a house into a stylish, functional home, and its Property Management Division, which ensures ongoing care and upkeep - particularly valuable for international buyers or investors.
Additionally, our group's Client Services Department plays a pivotal role in managing post-sale or letting formalities, providing a personal point of contact to help with legal, administrative and relocation matters. This department ensures continuity, trust and clarity long after the transaction is complete.
What sets Homes of Quality apart is its ability to deliver all these services in-house, eliminating the need for clients to seek assistance from multiple providers. This unified structure enhances efficiency, accountability and service quality, fostering long-term relationships with clients. The Circle of Services model encapsulates the Frank Salt Real Estate Group's commitment to excellence, reliability and personalised care - qualities that have defined the company’s legacy for over more than five decades and continue to position it as Malta’s foremost property agency.
We also have fostered strong relationships with some of Malta's most respected professionals which include architects, tax advisors, immigration specialists and legal firms which underscore our holistic approach to providing our clients with everything they will ever need when buying, selling or renting through us. Again, having this full-rounded bouquet of services available for local and international clients is unique in the Malta real estate landscape.
