A seasoned tennis pro who played in the Davis Cup for Honduras and is a former member of the Honduras Olympic tennis team, Christian Kawas is a disciplined and focused professional. After years in the Tennis industry at the world renown Evert Tennis Academy in Boca Raton, Christian decided to hone and finesse his admirable business skills and became manager of sales and marketing for the academy creating remarkable results in a short period of time.
This is the incredible experience and skills that Christian brings to Douglas Elliman Florida where as a new member of our team he will guide and advise clients from Doral to Boca Raton on purchases, investments, and listing their properties.
South Florida’s real estate market is not unlike the competitive tennis arena where the best and the hardest working pros rise to the top. Christian is very much a part of this select group.
After a couple of years of successful sales in the most difficult real estate downturn in recent history, Christian alongside with Ivan Hernandez decided to launch SoBe Luxury Homes, as a tool for current and future clients to find anything they needed about the current real estate market.
"I chose Douglas Elliman because I wanted to work with a firm that has great reach from Dade to Palm Beach counties," says Christian. "I decided to join a firm I felt had talented and innovative people – I wanted to learn from the best in the industry."
An organized and deliberate thinker, Christian promises to give his clients the best options for their money. He lives in Doral with his wife and son.
