One of the questions we hear most from buyers is, "What do I need before I apply for a mortgage?"

Nicole Pelosi, Sales Associate, Andover, MA, speaks to Raveis365+ and how organized she feels using this world-class technology.

Dear William Raveis Family,

High season is in full swing in the Hamptons—it is an exciting time for our sales associates and Chris Raveis is leading the way, growing our luxury brand presence across the region. Chris is the best in the business, having spearheaded our Massachusetts expansion from three offices to over fifty today. These big milestones take teamwork by our wonderful agents, managers, and staff at William Raveis.

Welcome Lauren Balbuena, SVP overseeing operations, growth, and agent development in New York City, the Hamptons, and the North Fork! Chris said at the gathering on Friday morning, “Lauren's track record of building high-performing offices and developing successful agents makes her a natural fit for this role," adding, "as a privately held company, we focused on long-term investments, in our agents, technology, and the luxury markets we serve."

Lauren brings more than a decade of real estate industry experience in brokerage operations, recruiting, agent development, and strategic growth. Most notably, she led the successful relaunch of a Manhattan franchise in 2021, helping to grow the office by more than 200 agents while transforming it into one of the organization's top-performing offices. Throughout her career, she has overseen operations supporting more than 1,800 agents across 7 offices.

We are the local experts, connecting clients from our beautiful Upper East Side, Manhattan location, to 7 offices across the East End. Once again, our company’s strategic vision is to be the #1 luxury real estate broker from Palm Beach to Nantucket, Hilton Head to Westchester County, NYC, and back!

More good news…a great majority of our sales force have adopted Raveis365+ powered by Cloze! In 2 weeks, we’ll have “snippet” videos to make your mastery of Cloze even faster. These short 5-to-10-minute videos will help you complete one single task or action recommended by your colleagues, so stay tuned to Christa’s Morning Boost for updates. We are at the forefront of revolutionizing the real estate industry. As mentioned during my roadshows, our competitors who don’t have Raveis365+ will be considered dinosaurs.

GO TEAM!
With gratitude, Bill
