Allen Tate Realtors Makes First Acquisition After Howard Hanna Partnership<\/h2>\n

Hanna Holdings announced that Howard Hanna Real Estate Services\u2019 sister company, Allen Tate Realtors, has acquired Blowing Rock Investment Properties<\/a>, an independent residential real estate company serving Blowing Rock, Boone, and surrounding areas in North Carolina\u2019s High Country region.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This acquisition<\/a> marks Charlotte-based Allen Tate\u2019s entry into the High Country region. Tate, the largest real estate company in the Carolinas, operates 46 offices spanning the Charlotte and Research Triangle regions in North Carolina, and the Upstate of South Carolina.<\/p>\n

Established in 2005, Blowing Rock Investment Properties is a market leader for vacation homes, retirement properties, primary residences, commercial properties, and investment properties. Led by Scott MacIntosh, president and broker in charge, the company has more than twenty experienced agents serving clients in Blowing Rock, Boone, West Jefferson, Banner Elk, Linville, Beach Mountain, Sugar Mountain, and Lenoir, North Carolina.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe High Country marketplace has always been a natural fit for Allen Tate.  For many years, we\u2019ve been watching this special company grow in the right way, and we\u2019re very excited to welcome Blowing Rock Investment Properties to Allen Tate Realtors. We will bring the tools and resources to distinguish their agents and expose their clients\u2019 unique listings to the local, regional, national, and investment marketplaces,\u201d said Pat Riley, president and CEO of the Allen Tate Companies.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe owe our success to our incredible agents, who take great care of our clients and brought us to this point,\u201d MacIntosh said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m also extremely grateful for the professional relationships I\u2019ve had with Pat Riley and Allen Tate over the years. They introduced me to the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World\u00ae network and laid a path for me to follow to achieve my goals and objectives.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In September 2018, Allen Tate Realtors joined forces with Howard Hanna, the third-largest real estate company in the United States and the largest home seller in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York.  This partnership created the #1 privately owned real estate company in the nation with more than 11,000 agents and employees in more than 300 offices in 9 states.  It also gave Allen Tate Realtors substantial traction and scale in the competitive real estate industry and the opportunity to grow through acquisitions.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to welcome Scott MacIntosh and the agents with Blowing Rock Investment Properties to Allen Tate and the Howard Hanna family of companies,\u201d said Howard W. \u201cHoby\u201d Hanna, IV, president of Howard Hanna Real Estate.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of our strategy in the joint venture with Allen Tate is to grow the company through mergers, acquisitions, and franchises in the Carolinas and Southeast as we have throughout the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. Our secure financial strength and proactive approach to continued growth will keep us solidly positioned for combined success.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Howard Hanna Real Estate Services, Allen Tate Realtors, and Blowing Rock Investment Properties are all members of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World\u00ae<\/a>, the most powerful connection in the world of real estate.<\/p>\n
