MAISON Bahamas, Forbes Global Properties, has announced the recent appointment of award-winning financial services consultant and veteran real estate broker Suzanne Black to the boutique firm. Ms. Black will serve in a dual capacity of consultant and property sales.

“As we build MAISON Bahamas with a very carefully curated small group of individuals, each of whom brings a special skill, we are very pleased to welcome Suzanne Black, a woman who has broken barriers and achieved success in a broad range of endeavours over a lifetime of hard work, strong ethics and high standards,” said Ryan Knowles, CEO, who founded MAISON Bahamas two years ago.

Ms. Black, who was honoured by the Bahamas Financial Services Board at their 25th Anniversary last year with an award named after her, has chalked up numerous firsts in a high-powered career that spans diverse fields of hospitality, banking, insurance and property along with extensive animal rights volunteer work.

Among her firsts, Ms. Black was the first woman and Bahamian to head an international bank branch, the first to head an international private members’ club in The Bahamas and the first to chair international financial conferences, a responsibility she carried out on behalf of the AIBT (Association of International Banks and Trust Companies in The Bahamas) and the Central Bank of The Bahamas.

She has been recognized by the government of The Bahamas and named in Queen’s honours.

In 2023, the Bahamas Financial Services Board honoured Black’s contributions by naming an award established to honour an exceptional graduating student from the School of Business at the University of The Bahamas creating the Suzanne Black Award.

“I look forward to this latest challenge and to working with Ryan Knowles who is considered one of the leading luxury and new development specialists in The Bahamas,” said Ms. Black. “I’m excited for the opportunity to be a part of Forbes Global Properties, the world’s leading consortium of luxury real estate brokerages.”

Ms. Black said her first focus will include Windsor Lakes, the development in southwest New Providence whose total sales to date demonstrate that it is filling a gap in the gated luxury development property market, creating an upscale mixed use residential and leisure community, packed with amenities and an environment that includes three lakes and easy access to Adelaide Beach.
