Keller Williams Realty Announces Plans for Commercial Division
Buddy Norman joins the company as division president
AUSTIN, TEXAS (July 16, 2008) —Keller Williams Realty, Inc., the fourth largest real estate company in North America, announced plans to launch a Keller Williams Realty Commercial Division this fall.
“Our goal is to expand our platform and make Keller Williams Realty the real estate company of choice in both the residential and commercial worlds by providing our associates the technology, marketing tools, and resources to succeed in the commercial business,” said Mark Willis, CEO of Keller Williams Realty. “We want to create synergy and referrals between the residential and commercial sides of our Keller Williams offices, increasing the income and production potential of all our agents.”
Buddy Norman, a veteran of commercial real estate has joined Keller Williams as president of the new division. Norman has more than 18 years of experience in the commercial real estate industry, including leadership within international firms, such as The Staubach Company and Burnham Real Estate, which was acquired by Cushman & Wakefield. He has led the development of new business divisions and trained commercial agents all over the U.S. including Dallas, Atlanta, Washington D.C. and San Diego. A consistent top producer, Norman has averaged approximately 400,000 square feet per year of commercial leasing and sales transactions over the last 10 years.
“There’s such a wide spectrum of commercial real estate experience within Keller Williams Realty,” said Norman. “We intend to build a strong commercial division paralleling the success and growth of the Keller Williams residential division.”
Norman will work with a newly created Commercial Leadership Council (CLC) – a group of 25 top Keller Williams commercial brokers from across North America to guide the launch and implementation of the new division.
