Successful companies are those that can respond adeptly to change. But the most successful companies are those that not only anticipate change but work to shape how those changes play out.
I think the best way to illustrate that approach is with one of my favorite expressions, “Skating to where the puck will be.”
That’s an approach ERA Real Estate has taken in expanding the brand’s presence across the country. Over the last few years, we have looked to add new ERA companies in up and coming markets that are well-positioned for growth and expansion based on economics, infrastructure, job trends and relocation activity.
That strategy has paid off. A recent article in RIS Media called “The Top 10 Suburbs Leading the Spring Home-Buying Season” calls out 10 markets with stellar growth arcs over the last three years. I’m proud to say that ERA Real Estate has a presence in 9 of them. We’re excited to have strong local leadership in these opportunity markets as we look to take an active role in fast-forwarding the brand and the industry at large to a successful future.
