Attracting Lisa Huron to head the Division as Director.

(ELM GROVE) (WISCONSIN) (7/1/10) — Keller Williams Realty Elm Grove has announced that it has added agents to facilitate the Home Leasing and Apartment Rental arm of its business. Dedicated to serving the rental and short-term lease market, the members-only Leasing/Rental division of Keller Williams Realty offers eligible associates training and a new form of commission splits to agents who choose to be involved.

Lisa Huron, formerly of Shorewest Realtors

made her decision to join her years of apartment building management experience along with her real estate sales experience with the Keller Williams model just this past week.

“It is awesome that we have brought the rental and leasing sectors of real estate in Milwaukee into modern times.

All other major cities have companies that service this section of the market.

We are proud to be the first major company in the Milwaukee market to do so.” Said Chris Slinker, Operating Principal of Keller Williams Elm Grove.

This program allows more KW associates to capitalize on the leasing and rental market across North America. “When you look at the leasing and rental market – it’s been more stable than the real estate sales market as a whole, so we want to arm our agents to capitalize on that opportunity,” says Huron.

The educational requirement is provided by KW Elm Grove, internal training headed up by Huron and Slinker.

“These educational requirements allow renters to know that the agent representing them has a true and solid background in leasing and rental market.”

Said Huron.

“We know that when we listen to what our agents need, we develop the right product for them,” says Slinker.

“This program was built by our agents, for our agents. As an agent-centric company, we wouldn’t do it any other way.”

The program provides benefits that many other companies cannot match.

Each KW agent that qualifies as a member gets access to free listings on potentially over 100+ rental websites connected to the KW sales division.

Keller Williams commitment to making the program a true representation of the rental market have strict sales and membership requirements for offices and agents to become members.

Adds Huron “We know that this program provides greater visibility for our landlord and investment clients, a strong support system for our agents currently servicing rental clients, and a firm foundation for growth to our associates who are looking to key into the market. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
