KENDALLVILLE, Ind. / February 27, 2025 – Weichert, Realtors® – Hoosier Heartland, a real estate brokerage in Kendallville, is proud to announce the company’s affiliation with Weichert® as a member of its national franchise system. The brokerage is the 17th Weichert® franchised office in the state of Indiana.
Weichert, Realtors® – Hoosier Heartland is owned and operated by Trey Forbes, one of the area’s premier agents who led a successful real estate team at his previous brokerage.
“We are excited to join the Weichert franchise network and partner with one of the most successful brands in the country,” said Forbes. “Over the past few years, our team has experienced rapid growth, and we were seeking a partner with an outstanding culture to help us continue on this trajectory. Weichert’s core values and the exceptional tools they provide to franchisees made this the perfect fit.”
As part of the Weichert franchise network, Forbes and his team have access to in-depth training programs, the latest technology, and the most powerful sales and marketing tools in the industry to help provide superior real estate service to their clients.

He started his career by earning an appraisal license and transitioned into sales in 2012. Forbes quickly became a multimillion-dollar producer, before forming his own team of highly skilled agents in 2020.
