Christopher Clover and Panorama have established a lasting legacy in Marbella, characterized by commitment, strong leadership, and a visionary outlook.

Since his arrival in the 1970s to oversee a small branch of the family business, Christopher has transformed Panorama into the region's longest running property brokerage and also the most respected real estate agency in Marbella, specialising in the sale and rental of luxury properties. The family’s long-standing history in real estate, dating back to 1904 in Chicago, provided Christopher with a foundation upon which he has built Panorama’s reputation for dedication, professionalism and ethical business practice.

This award from CIT Marbella highlights the critical role that Christopher Clover, as well as his children Katinka and Alex and the rest of his team, have played in creating a luxury real estate brokerage with strong values of transparency, quality of service, and a deep understanding of clients' expectations.

His annual Marbella Property Market Report, as well as his acclaimed Marbella property buyer and seller guides, and other in-depth articles and analysis, are examples of Christopher's active contribution to a deeper understanding of local real estate, always offering a well-founded and comprehensive perspective on the Marbella property market. This ongoing commitment to a world-class level of service is one of the reasons why Panorama has retained its premier position in the industry.
