When Luxury Meets Listing: The Bond Bar x Housed.com
There are moments when design, hospitality, and real estate converge — transforming a property showing into something far more memorable.
On Thursday, October 9th, The Bond Bar had the privilege of collaborating with Housed.com and Mike D’Elena for a private broker open in Scottsdale — an event that redefined what it means to experience a home.
The evening was the definition of an elegant gathering of Scottsdale’s top agents — complete with conversation, curated cocktails, and the unmistakable energy that happens when beautiful design meets elevated service.
A Modern Take on the Broker Open
Traditionally, a broker open serves a practical purpose: giving real estate professionals the opportunity to explore a listing, exchange insights, and identify the perfect buyer. But with the Housed.com team, “practical” became experiential.
Known for their modern, data-driven approach to real estate, Housed.com is helping agents see beyond the listing — creating meaningful connections through design, service, and storytelling.
The event hosted by Mike D’Elena, a leading Scottsdale agent and lead of the Housed network, exemplified that vision. The property itself was a showpiece — clean lines, soft desert light, and open-concept luxury — the kind of home that invites you to linger a little longer.
And that’s exactly what guests did.
Crafting the Bar Experience
The Bond Bar set the stage within the residence and on the beautiful back patio — our custom mobile bars serving as both centerpieces and conversation catalysts. Guests enjoyed a menu of curated cocktails designed to complement the setting: serving our signature margarita – bright, balanced and effortlessly sophisticated. While also presenting an assortment of classic cigars.
Each pour — and every cigar presented — reflected the same philosophy that drives both luxury real estate and The Bond Bar itself: attention to detail, refined presentation, and the art of creating connection through experience.
From branded drinkware and hand-selected cigars to thoughtfully crafted garnishes, every element was intentional. Working alongside Housed.com, we created an atmosphere that invited guests to pause, engage, and envision life within the home.
Where Hospitality Meets Real Estate
Luxury is more than a price point — it’s a feeling.
For brokers and agents, hosting a bar at an open house isn’t just about serving cocktails; it’s about creating a mood. It turns tour into a memory — an opportunity to connect with clients, strengthen relationships, and showcase a property through the lens of experience.
At The Bond Bar, we understand that every detail speaks to brand identity. For a platform like Housed.com, which blends technology and taste, partnering with a hospitality brand that shares that ethos is a natural fit. Together, we transformed a midweek industry event into something aspirational — proof that when luxury meets listing, the story of the home comes to life.
Gratitude + Vision
We’re grateful to Mike D’Elena and the team at Housed.com for inviting us into this thoughtfully executed event — one that celebrated not only a stunning property, but the power of connection within Arizona’s real estate community.
As we continue to collaborate with brands, developers, and design-driven professionals, our mission remains simple: to elevate every environment we enter through the art of hospitality.
Because whether it’s a product launch, private event, or luxury broker open — when purpose meets presentation, every cocktail tells a story.
If you’re in the real estate industry and want to transform your next Broker Open into an unforgettable experience, partner with The Bond Bar — where luxury meets lifestyle.
