Northern Liberties Real Estate - Breathtaking City Views from our new RE/MAX office at the Piazza
When I was in our new office the other day monitoring the fit-out, I could not help but take a couple of photos of our view.  I doubt neither myself nor any of the agents working at our office, nor the clients visiting, will ever tire of the views.  The views and location are simply magnificent.   If you are in the area and wish to check it out, email or call us.

The Piazza is an amazing place of people, shops and energy.  We love … (17 comments)

remax affiliates: Above the Crowd - Literally ! - 09/20/09 12:45 AM
 

 
This past week I was in Denver at RE/MAX International for Broker / Owner training.  It was just amazing.
We literally had the opportunity to be "Above the Crowd" as our class experienced a ride in the balloon !
I was extremely impressed with the new building at RE/MAX headquarters (I posted a few photos on Facebook ) .
We learned a great deal and are now back in Philadelphia and are extremely excited about growing our new office in Northern Liberties !
Agents have an opportunity to join our office now in Northern Liberties before it gets … (13 comments)

RE/MAX Affiliates Welcomes Gino Carbonetti !
Our office landed Gino Carbonetti, a superb addition to our management and education team.   Gino has been an Associate Broker and top producer at a nearby Coldwell Banker office.  Prior to that, he was with another RE/MAX office and from that experience, he had great respect and admiration for the RE/MAX concept.  So when their was the opportunity for him to join the management team at our new RE/MAX office, he took advantage of it ! We are very glad he did !!
Since our office was moving to our new location in Northern Liberties, Gino was very interested … (12 comments)

Check Signing - Perspective from Realtor to Owner
I write so many checks per month.  Our business alone "The Somers Team" writes countless checks every month for bills and expenses.  We have another account for our Philadelphia Investment Properties that we write all the checks for the bills and expenses associated in managing those properties.  And the same thing for our personal bills as well.  It takes a lot of time ! 
However, this week I was signing checks of a different kind !  I was signing the commission checks of the agents in the office and it felt great ! I … (9 comments)

Philadelphia Foreclosures - RE/MAX Partners with RealtyTrac

Northern Liberties Real Estate - Remax Affiliates is Moving to Northern Liberties !
                                
It was a big decision to move from Port Richmond, a neighborhood to which the owners Chris Somers and Steve Osiecki have many deep ties.  But the door of opportunity opened and they stepped into a new and exciting Real Estate future with a new location in Northern Liberties, a new construction building that is modern, sleek and posh in a dynamic area for consumers and agents alike.  In addition, the office will now be able to serve a greater portion of the Riverfront Neighborhoods into Center City because of its more centralized location.  The … (15 comments)

remax affiliates: Is your goal to own a real estate office ? - 06/17/09 01:16 PM
Is your goal to own a real estate office ? 
Two months ago I recently purchased half ownership of RE/MAX Affiliates in Philadelphia.  It was not my goal to be an owner of a real estate office.  It is not something I ever set out to do.  It just sort of happened per se.   Sometimes I think "geez wouldn't it be nice to be buying up some low priced real estate properties instead of a real estate office"?   But when the opportunity came up to be a RE/MAX owner, I seized it !   After all, I have been running and … (19 comments)

 Owner with a Leading Eye on the Future
A milestone event in my Philadelphia real estate career occurred this past week.  I am now owners with Steven Osiecki, long time friend and mentor, of RE/MAX Affiliates in Philadelphia.   It has been a bit of a different perspective thinking about the growth opportunities of the office, the profit and loss, training and recuriting of agents and so forth.   Some would say I am crazy buying into a real estate business and franchise in this economy !!!  But so be it, I think there is great opportunity ! My goal is transparent:  Being … (20 comments)

remax affiliates: Port Richmond Works! A Neighborhood that deserves a 2nd Look. - 03/18/09 07:39 AM
Port Richmond Works !
Our office was located in Port Richmond for a few years. 
So, Chris and I have become very familiar with the neighborhood and the surrounding subdivisions. We do not live in PortRichmond, though may of our co-workers have either grown up there, have family and friends there or they actually live in the neighborhood. One thing for sure, the people who live in Port Richmond really have strong ties to the neighborhood. Most recently in the last several years during the market bubble, Port Richmond home prices have increased dramatically. Many of the folks who lived there for … (8 comments)
