Derry, NH - Despite a difficult real estate market, one company is still growing. Bean Group, New Hampshire's fastest-growing real estate brokerage, is expanding with a new office at 78 Broadway in Derry. This follows other new offices opened recently in Bedford, Meredith, and Wolfeboro.
Michael Bean, founder of Bean Group, said, "We've been successful with our business model, which is different from most of our competitors. We hire experienced agents and give them the tools and freedom to do what they do best... provide great customer service. We supply our agents with the best Internet marketing; technology training and support; shared office spaces; and top commissions. All of our agents are mobile, trained and ready to show property, plus they work mostly from home offices so it's a better lifestyle for them. We started this business only five years ago to give agents and consumers a better experience, and it's been rewarding to watch it grow especially during tough economic times like these."
Located just outside the heart of Derry, the new office will serve the neighborhoods of West and East Hampstead, Chester, Londonderry, Sandown, Atkinson, Salem, Windham, and Auburn. Doug Charnley, 30-year Derry resident and formerly with Carlson GMAC, is the managing broker. Doug is currently the 2009 President-Elect of the Granite State South Board of REALTORS®. Doug is joined by REALTORS® Jeanie Dean, Joan Chagnon, Deb Gooding, Marilyn Monahan, and Karen Rivard. The Derry office can be reached at 603-434-4404.
Bean Group's Derry offices will eventually provide shared space for up to 25 agents. "The company is hiring new agents to keep up with the demand. Our goal is to have between 15 and 25 agents at the Derry office by the end of 2009," Bean said. The firm currently has 115 affiliated real estate agents across New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont.
Michael Bean is the 2009 President of the Seacoast Board of REALTORS and the 2009 President of NNEREN, the statewide MLS. He was named 2007 REALTOR of the Year by the Seacoast Board of REALTORS. Michael is also involved in his community, serving on the Board of Directors for Crossroads House, a transitional shelter that helps residents move to stable and decent housing.
