Memphis, Tenn. (July 7, 2017) - Crye-Leike Real Estate Services, the nation's fifth-largest independent residential real estate firm, is expanding outside of the continental United States for the first time in its 40-year history, with a new franchised office in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Santiago Coll-Camalez, a veteran independent real estate broker in San Juan, is now the owner and managing broker of the new Crye?Leike franchise in San Juan, the capital of and largest city in Puerto Rico, an island commonwealth that is a territory of the United States. About 1 million people live in the San Juan area. Coll-Camalez has been a real estate broker there since 2004, operating as an independent, said Keith Sullivan, president of Crye?Leike Franchises and chief marketing officer for Crye-Leike. Most of the major real estate brands familiar to Americans on the continental U.S. are active in Puerto Rico; however, the market also has many small independent real estate firms. Coll-Camalez's small formerly independent brokerage has three full-time and one part-time agent, with plans to grow to about 14 agents, Sullivan said. Sullivan said the company would like to have more franchised stores in Puerto Rico. "We've had some discussions with others in Puerto Rico for additional offices. Nothing has transpired yet but we'd like to expand our presence there," he said. "One of the main reasons to affiliate with Crye-Leike is to better compete in the local market, particularly incoming/outbound referral opportunities through our network of agents as well as through our international relocation network, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World," he said, explaining why becoming a Crye-Leike franchisee may be attractive to more independent brokers in Puerto Rico. "In addition, he (Coll-Camalez) now has access to more marketing/technology platforms which should help him grow his business." Sullivan says the real estate transaction in Puerto Rico is conducted in a similar fashion. Additionally, tax incentives (Act 20 and 22) were created to lure wealthy investors to the island. One difference: Spanish, not English, is the most commonly used language spoken in Puerto Rico. English is also widely spoken. Coll-Camalez' Crye?Leike franchise is "fully bilingual," Sullivan said. In 2012, Puerto Rico passed new tax laws, known as Act 20 and Act 22, that make the island territory a tax haven for U.S. citizens who become residents of Puerto Rico. The laws shield new residents residing in Puerto Rico for at least half of the year from paying most federal income taxes. An alumnus of John Carroll University, Coll-Camalez received his insurance license in 1982 and his real estate license in 2004. His real estate expertise includes helping buyers and sellers, property management, investment properties, and foreclosures for single-family homes, and excess and surplus property. He also has expertise in condominium insurance sales, commercial insurance, and personal insurance. His real estate specialties include commercial, residential, management, BPO's and inspections. "I decided to join Crye-Leike because of its performance and good will in the Mid-South," Coll-Camalez said. "With Crye-Leike, I am in a better position to serve my existing residential clientele, asset managers, and expand in commercial real estate, business brokerage and the Act 20/22 market, luxury market , as well as the referrals, due to emigration tendencies."

Very little is changing except the name and signage, remarked Mrs. Brown I will remain the managing broker as well as list and sell real estate just as I have been doing, and my agents will remain. We all look forward to the technology upgrades and the continuing education that Crye-Leike offers, just to name a few of the service upgrades planned, all to help us agents stay up-to-date with the rapidly changing business world. I believe this is a win-win for both companies, said Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Harold Crye of Crye-Leike. Oak Ridge and its surrounding areas are showing signs of steady growth with various companies expanding and moving there. We plan to build upon the foundation that Linda and her team of sales associates has successfully built for over three decades. We are very happy to be expanding our Crye-Leike brand there.

Memphis, Tenn. (April 6, 2016) Crye-Leike, Realtors paid tribute to its oldest real estate agent, 93-year-old RJ Wilbanks who retired from the company and the real estate industry after 35 years. Born and raised in Ripley, Miss., Wilbanks proudly says that his mother didn't give him a first name, but just wanted the initials, RJ, to be named after his grandfather on his mother's side, Robert Jefferson Medford. Having initials for a first name may be easy to remember, but Wilbanks shared a few stories that come along with it to the well-wishers at his company retirement party. Like the time when he tried to enlist in the United States Army. "The officer asked me what my real name was and I honestly said that my mother didn't give me a first name, just the initials," says Wilbanks. The officer proceeded to say that Wilbanks's mother was going to have to give him a first name other than RJ. The 21-year-old civilian respectfully but eagerly replied, "Well, if you wont enlist me because I dont have a first name, then I have a bus ticket in my hand and can go back home right now." His Experiences in the Army. Despite being RJ, and not Robert Jefferson, the United States Army enlisted him anyway. He was stationed at Fort Knox, Kentucky Army base in March of 1944 where he was trained as a tank crew member. Wilbanks served as a tank crew member in a light tank of the 21st Tank Battalion of the 10th Armord Division of the Third Army. As a crew member, he operated the machine gun in the bow of the tank against enemy personnel and vehicles. He participated in three major campaigns during World War II and holds the Bronze Star for meritorious achievement, serving an 18-month European theatre. Those wars were the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium; The Ardennes: Battle of the Bulge and the Battle of the Rhineland, which Wilbanks talks about the most because it was commanded by the great General George Smith Patton Jr. General Patton led the famous United States Third Army across Europe in World War II following the Allied invasion of Normandy, France in June of 1944. "He's a true living hero with a mind still sharp as a tack," says Crye-Leike General Manager Steve Brown as he witnessed RJ remembering vivid details of his service in the military. "In the fall of 1944, while fighting in the Battle of the Rhineland, I had to replace the tank driver who got hit with shrapnel," says Wilbanks. "During the Battle of the Bulge, I remember our troop being surrounded by Germans for 10 to 12 days. Another time, I was on night patrol in a small village, when I heard the Germans sneaking in. I stopped them by opening fire, alerting the guards." The men and women who fought and won the great conflict are now mostly in their 90s like RJ Wilbanks. They are dying quickly at a rate of approximately 430 a day, according to the U.S. Veterans Administration (USVA) figures. During World War II, 16 million Americans served their nation. Today, that number stands under a million, says the USVA, and by 2036, it is estimated there will be no living veterans of World War II left to recount their experiences. Wilbanks' 35 Years with Crye-Leike. A resident of Olive Branch, Miss., Wilbanks earned several sales achievement awards with Crye-Leike during his 35 years as a sales associate. He honorably added, "I worked by the Code of Ethics and high standards which Crye-Leike sets for its agents." There was much admiration shared at the retirement party for Wilbanks. Three different Crye-Leike managing brokers were present who had been his sales manager over his 35 years of service to the company: Robert Clay, Jimmie Hopson, Jr., Margie Mays and CF Moore. Hopson described Wilbanks as a true professional who he has known since he joined Crye-Leike in April 1990. "I admired RJ because he supported me when I became the managing broker at Crye-Leike's Whitehaven office, even though I was a lot younger and he had been in the business longer," says Hopson. "RJ always offered inspiration and wisdom to our office. He was respected by all agents." At age 92, Wilbanks said that he decided to slow down. His last real estate deal was in August 2015. "With technology advancing faster than I could learn it and my cornea transplant keeping me from seeing the computer screen very well, I was relying on my real estate friends too much," says Wilbanks. "So, I decided to switch to working with Referral Center, Inc. which offers real estate agents supplemental income for referrals." "RJ has dedicated himself to a lifetime of service from serving our country to 32 years in the life insurance industry as a certified life underwriter before entering his second career of 35 years in real estate," says President and Co-Founder Dick Leike of Crye-Leike, Realtors. "Crye-Leike was fortunate to have RJ associated with us for all these years. His presence will be missed." About Crye-Leike.

March 29, 2016) - Tennessee-based Crye-Leike, the nation's fourth largest privately-held residential real estate brokerage firm and largest in Tennessee and the Mid-South, has officially established an East Tennessee regional headquarters in Knoxville after first entering the market in February 2011. "With having a market presence in this region for 4.5 years now, our purchase of a headquarters building should prove to Knoxville that Crye-Leike is here to stay," said Chief Executive Officer Harold E. Crye who intends to continue to grow Crye-Leike by adding two to three more branch offices in Farragut and Oak Ridge. Its headquarters office is now located at 9539 Kingston Pike in the Franklin Square area. It will serve as its Knoxville West branch office as well as house administrative offices for the region, including commercial, property management and relocation services. Crye-Leike's East Tennessee Region has seven other branch offices with 140+ sales associates in Athens, Cookeville, Johnson City, Loudon (Tellico Village), Pigeon Forge/Sevierville, Powell (North Knoxville) and West Knoxville, along with five franchise offices in Crossville, Greeneville, Maryville Morristown and Rogersville. This headquarters building, previously a law office, was purchased by Crye in January 2016 for $1.05 million. The one-story building and parking lot were completely renovated to meet building codes. With over 6,000 sq. ft., the building now offers triple the amount of office space it once had at its first Knoxville branch office, leased office space at 731 Campbell Station Road in Farragut which is now closed. "Crye-Leike typically does not lease office space," said General Manager Melonie Carideo. "It just took us a few years to find the right location for our regional headquarters. This newly-renovated building gives our current 40-agent base room to grow to as many sales associates as we need, along with a welcoming lobby and two conference rooms." The newly-decorated Crye-Leike building is being shared by its affiliate company, Realty Title, offering its sales associates and customers convenient title and closing services. Carideo noted that Crye-Leike's real estate offices are not being designed like they used to. "Ten years ago, you would see our real estate offices having a desk or private office for every agent affiliated in that branch office," she said. "Today, many Crye-Leike agents work remotely from home. So, Crye-Leike doesnt need the massive office square footage it used to have." Crye-Leike's East Tennessee Region produced a year-end sales volume of $206.65 million in 2015, up 29.34 percent from $159.77 million through 2014, representing 1,207 in year-end closings.
