@properties Bolsters Presence in Southwest Michigan; Opens Office in St. Joseph

@properties is continuing its rapid growth throughout Southwest Michigan with the opening of a new office in St. Joseph, Mich. @properties co-founders Thaddeus Wong and Michael Golden made the announcement.

Located at 3399 S. Lakeshore Dr., just east of Interstate 94, the 2,400-square-foot office marks @properties’ second location in the region. The new office will serve homebuyers and sellers in the areas of Berrien, Cass, Van Buren and Allegan counties.

The St. Joseph office is currently staffed by top-producing brokers Chris Marzke, Jackson Matson and the Wortman team, which includes Mark and Mary Wortman. The firm plans to accommodate another 10 brokers within the next year, according to George Schultz, vice president of brokerage services for @properties.

Since @properties opened its Harbor Country real estate office last February in New Buffalo, Mich., the company has quickly emerged as one of the leading real estate brokerage firms in the region.

“We moved into southwest Michigan primarily to serve the second-home market, and quickly established relationships with local buyers and sellers who were seeking the higher level of service that we provide,” said Golden. “This new office allows us to more effectively serve clients throughout the entire region.”

“Agents and clients in the area have been incredibly receptive to @properties from the get-go,” said Wong. “We’re looking forward to bringing our local brand to many more communities in Southwest Michigan and Northwest Indiana and building more market share.”

In addition to regional offices in St. Joseph and New Buffalo, @properties has several offices throughout the city of Chicago, and Chicago’s North Shore and western suburbs.
