SVP/General Manager Southern Region for William Raveis Matt Lane said the addition of CR to its business will help in strengthening its position throughout the Southern region as it adds to the brokerage’s current 4,500 sales associates in 140 offices from Maine to Florida. The acquisition will give the brokerage a significant increase in its market share in the Hilton Head and Blufton areas of Beaufort County.
With the specialty mortgage and insurance program offerings, clients will be able to access more than 40 national lender options and competitive insurance products such as homeowners, flood, boaters, renters, umbrella, and many others.
“It’s a win-win to have William Raveis’ in-house mortgage bankers to help prequalify our buyers and sellers and insurance experts to help them navigate a complex insurance market with affordable options,” said Matt Rowe, one of the principals of CR and its broker-in-charge.
The acquisition follows three other firms acquired by the brokerage as it continues its move to expand within the luxury markets within the east coast. These firms are Molisse Realty Group, Jones Group Realtors, and Carolina Realty Group.
William Raveis is a privately held real estate brokerage in South Carolina, Florida, and the Northeast. It provides real estate services to clients and customers for 50 years.
