GREEENVILLE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, part of the HSF Affiliates LLC family of real estate brokerage franchise networks, today announced that Prudential Prime Properties has joined the network and is operating as Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Prime Properties.
The brokerage joins a growing roster of companies that has transitioned to the network during the past year. Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices now counts more than 32,000 agents and 1,011 offices in 47 states.
Prime Properties Broker/Owners Rudy Schulte, Stan Cherry and Pistol Tingen see tremendous opportunity in the transition. “It is an honor and privilege to join Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, a brand inspired by one of the world’s most trusted and respected corporations,” said Schulte. “We are excited by the marketing potential of our new brand, and we embrace the responsibility of representing Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices locally.”
Cherry said the combination of his hard-working agents and the brand will resonate well in the marketplace. “Our network is built on Berkshire Hathaway’s values of trust, integrity, stability and longevity – the same values we live here every day,” he explained. “We believe consumers will seek out our ‘Cabernet and Cream’ yard signs as symbols of top-rate service and expertise.”
Prime Properties will grow as a result of its transition, Tingen added. “We want to expand our business and serve a broader client base in the Greenville-Pitt County area,” he said. “We’re confident that agents who want to take their careers to new heights will want to represent Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.”
With their transition, Prime Properties agents gain access to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ Global Network Platform – a robust suite of real estate tools and resources – plus professional education, business consultation, marketing support and the exclusive Luxury Collection program that provides marketing clout for high-end listings.
Stephen Phillips, president of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, applauded the brokerage’s transition. “Rudy, Stan, Pistol and their team are well-respected locally with an impressive record of client care,” he said. “We’re proud they’re moving forward with us as members of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.”
