Letter From Wes Foster

Wed, 25 Apr 2018 00:35:40 +0000

From the day Hank Long and I founded our real estate company in 1968, our success depended on how well we could support our agents, so they could do the essential work of helping clients to buy and sell homes. We agreed to put our sales associates first in every decision, and that focus became the foundation of our business.

Our agent-first philosophy remains true to this day—even under our new ownership of Berkshire Hathaway’s HomeServices of America. We support our associates in all their endeavors, give them the tools they need to succeed for their clients, and treat them like family. We follow a motto of “Trust, Family and Excellence,” which represents our corporate values and our approach to doing business.
