Christel Renaud

Originally from the South of France and fluent in French, English, and Spanish, Christel has spent over 20 years honing her expertise across luxury service, real estate, and design. Now a proud member of Compass and the top-producing Ivan & Mike Team, she brings a refined, elevated perspective to Miami’s luxury market—pairing world-class client care with sharp market strategy.

With a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management from a leading Parisian university, Christel began her career in the luxury hotel sector, organizing high-profile events and conferences worldwide.

Today, Christel leverages this dual background to guide buyers and sellers with discretion, clarity, and decisive execution. She specializes in international clients and lifestyle-driven moves, helping buyers see a home’s full potential and helping sellers position properties for maximum appeal and profitability. From strategic staging and curated design consultations to precise pricing and negotiation, Christel delivers a seamless, stress-free experience—backed by the technology, reach, and collaborative power of Compass and the Ivan & Mike Team.
