Bridgehampton, NY (3/2/07) – Hamptons Luxury Homes (OTCBB:HLXH), a nationally recognized and award-winning luxury homebuilder of custom estate homes, today announced that it has signed an agreement with Edwin Fishel Tuccio Real Estate, Inc. for its participation in Hamptons Luxury Homes’ recently-announced formal sales-referral program.

“We welcome Edwin Fishel Tuccio to the program,” said Roy Dalene, president of Hamptons Luxury Homes. “We believe that his participation in this program will be mutually beneficial.”

Hamptons Luxury Homes recently announced its formation of a unique sales program that enables Long Island real estate agents from firms focusing on expensive properties, to provide specific referrals of clients to Hamptons Luxury Homes and receive a fully disclosed fee on those referrals. A number of real estate firms serving the area are already very familiar with the fine quality and craftsmanship of Telemark, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hamptons Luxury Homes.

“This agreement is very beneficial for us in that we are very comfortable recommending Telemark to our clients. However, the fact that management has created a program that enables us to participate in a business manner is something that we believe will find tremendous reception among our peers,” said Edwin Fishel Tuccio, President of the Long Island firm.

Edwin Fishel Tuccio Real Estate is the fourth firm to join in the program that was launched in February. Other participating firms include: Prudential Douglas Elliman, South Fork Realty, Compass East Realty, Ltd.

The Hamptons Luxury Homes Sales Referral program allows real estate agents from various Hamptons’ firms the opportunity to introduce Hamptons Luxury Homes services to their clients who may be considering the following:

* building, renovating, altering or repairing a home
* in need of property maintenance
* in need of a property manager
* custom millwork

Additionally, Hamptons Luxury Homes provides sales support to the real estate agent. If an agent has a client who is considering purchasing a home and wants to determine the cost for alterations or repairs, Hamptons Luxury Homes will perform an evaluation and create a preliminary budget for that client free of charge. The agent then may be able to roll the cost of repairs or alterations into the sales price of the home and add his or her fee on a fully disclosed basis. Hamptons Luxury Homes is also able to determine the cost of a project and add a line item for a referral fee as agreed by the agent, thereby fulfilling any disclosure requirements that are required.
