FOURTH GENERATION MICHIGAN COMPANY FLIES NEW BANNER AS WEICHERT, REALTORS® - EHMAN & GREENSTREET
Ypsilanti/ Ann Arbor/Farmington, Mich., April 13, 2011—Clark Brown, broker/owner of Ehman & Greenstreet, has announced the company’s affiliation with Weichert Real Estate Affiliates, Inc. (WREA) as an independently owned and operated franchise. Signs reading WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Ehman & Greenstreet have been added at 1947 Whittaker Road in Ypsilanti, 500 East Eisenhower Parkway, Suite A in Ann Arbor, and at the newest location, 30095 Northwestern Highway in Farmington.
“This is more than just adding a new brand name to the front of ours,” Brown said of the relationship. “It’s what’s behind the name that makes all the difference.” Brown, who has been in the real estate business for 33 years, conducted a thorough research of franchise opportunities and determined that “Weichert is way ahead of the game, specifically with their systems,” he said. “For the next 3-5 years this will be more important than what the sign says.”
WREA launched its first affiliate in 2002 and by 2005 was identified by Entrepreneur Magazine as one of the nation’s fastest growing franchises. To date, its reputation continues to grow along with the roster of affiliates, now operating in 36 states. Together with company-owned offices, approximately 18,000 agents serve key U.S. markets. The parent company, Weichert, Realtors®, is one of the nation’s largest privately owned providers of real estate and home ownership services.
The company is literally “run by Realtors.” From founder Jim Weichert to WREA President Martin J. Rueter and his staff, the team consists of people who have been in the field as Realtors, Brokers, office owners, managers and sales people. In fact, Rueter traveled from to Michigan from Weichert® headquarters in Morris Plains, New Jersey, to make an in-person introduction of the company to Brown’s staff and sales team. “We couldn’t be more proud than to add Clark and his outstanding family to ours,” Rueter said.
Ehman & Greenstreet has been in business since 1922. The company was founded by Brown’s great grandfather, making him a fourth generation broker, “and some members of the fifth generation are working with me now,” he said. Also like his father and grandfather, Brown is a past president of the Ann Arbor Area Board of REALTORS®. The company is currently home to more than 40 agents. Brown can be reached for comment at the main office in Ypsilanti, telephone 734-482-3484.
