This tradition continues with the recent addition of luxury Real Estate Advisor, Karine Icher to the Pinnacle Peak Office. Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty agents strive to deliver real estate experiences beyond expectations to enhance lifestyles for their clients, expanding their reputation as the most respected name in real estate. 

I’m excited to start my career in real estate with RLSIR. Coming from the golf world as an LPGA player for 15y, I’m looking to use all the skills and dedication I learned in sport to help my clients. And if I can add 1 or 2 tips on the golf course, let’s mix  in the fun

Karine Icher

Born and raised in France, as a kid, Karine Icherrapidly fell in love with Golf and was fortunate to turn pro at the age of 21 and make a living. She spent her time studying and playing Golf at the highest amateur level as a teenager. 

After winning the world team championship in Germany, Karine was ready to explore the world and join the Ladies European Tour. She played in Europe for four years, won 6 titles, and dreamed about the LPGA. She then got her full card in 2005 and played on the LPGA for 15 years. Karine was selected on the European Solheim Cup team 4 times, played in the Olympics in Rio in 2016, and was the French leader for many years. After competing in 354 tournaments on the LPGA, it was time for Karine to close that book and open a new one.

Karine now looks to use all the skills she learned in sport in real estate. Helping people achieve their dreams and goals is what drove her throughout the years

We are excited to welcome Karine Icher to our Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty sales team at the Pinnacle Peak Office. I know she will be a great asset to our office and will do a great job representing her clients.
