(Aug. 19, 2014) \u2014 Better Homes and Gardens\u00ae Real Estate today announced the addition of Go Realty, one of North Carolina\u2019s prominent independent real estate brokerages, to its franchise network. The newly named Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Go Realty will continue under the leadership of co-owners Jim Garman and Kevin Woody, serving Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, Holly Springs, Garner, Apex, Morrisville, Knightdale and Clayton.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGo Realty caught the industry\u2019s attention at inception for the company\u2019s dynamic approach to real estate brokerage,\u201d said Sherry Chris, president and CEO of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate LLC. \u201cJim and Kevin\u2019s nimble team of sales professionals understands the value in consumer relationships and has created a culture and office environment that transcends traditional models. They emphasize all-encompassing real estate education for their affiliated agents and a remarkable company culture that fosters excitement for helping buyers and sellers alike, making their brokerage an ideal fit for our brand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since 2010, Go Realty has adhered to its trailblazing philosophy to serve as \u201cnot your father\u2019s real estate company.\u201d This innovative mindset and approach to real estate earned the brokerage recognition within the Beta Brokerage Project, a platform that highlights brokerages challenging traditional norms to encourage the evolution of the real estate industry. The company attributes its success to creating a community of storytellers who not only move people from place to place, but find the right lifestyle fit for their clients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe would only affiliate with a national brand that would enhance, not conflict, with our company\u2019s fresh flavor, and after extensive research, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate was the only brand for us,\u201d said Garman. \u201cWe have joined this brand to share in its infectious enthusiasm for the end consumer and its lifestyle approach to real estate that will help us serve our clients beyond the transaction. The agent education, technology infrastructure and marketing support we gain with this affiliation will be true differentiators for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Go Realty will maintain its four office locations in Cary, Durham, Garner, and Holly Springs and will seek to grow its current affiliated agent base of 65 self-proclaimed creative and client-obsessed local residential real estate professionals. The company offices have been designed specifically to embrace a personal, inviting and collaborative culture. A mix of vibrant colors, natural wood and light, communal work areas and fun zones gives their modern offices an industrial chic meets home feel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe like to say that Go Realty just got \u2018Better,\u2019\u201d said Woody.\u00a0 \u201cIn Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, we have found our tribe on a national level, so to speak. We are not a traditional company, and while we had a strategic growth plan, after understanding the Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate value proposition, we realized we are better with them than without them. By reconciling an independent brokerage with the power of a national brand, we now have the best of both worlds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Go Realty agents have the opportunity to contribute to the company\u2019s culture book, inspired by Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh\u2019s Delivering Happiness. Each year agents write short stories about something related to the brokerage that inspired them, changed their thinking or surprised them. The company then takes the collection of stories and publishes a book, which serves as an artifact of their culture and helps communicate what makes the brokerage different to potential agents and consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the company\u2019s investment in their agents\u2019 growth, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Go Realty remains an active supporter of the community. Since the company\u2019s launch, a portion of each real estate transaction commission has been contributed to a local charity. This practice will continue, and the brokerage just announced its partnership with Garman Homes to build the Miracle Home for Duke Children\u2019s Hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit\u00a0<a style=\"cursor: pointer\" title=\"The link that you have chosen will direct you to a website not owned and operated by Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate LLC.
