WAUSAU, Wis. / March 27, 2019 – Weichert Real Estate Affiliates, Inc. continues to grow its Midwest market presence with the addition of Weichert, Realtors® – Jarpo Group in Wausau, Wisconsin.
The addition of the new real estate agency marks the third Weichert® affiliate office in the state and first in Marathon County.
The owners of the company, Robert and Alyson Petersen, made the decision to franchise after meeting with the Weichert leadership team in Morris Plains, New Jersey. The couple saw tremendous value in joining a brand like Weichert and the support they provide their affiliated owners, brokers and agents.
“We were thoroughly impressed with the overall business platform that Weichert offers its franchise offices to help them capture a larger share of their local real estate market,” said Robert Petersen, who is also the third-generation owner of a successful  family-owned hydraulic company in Tomahawk, Wisconsin.
“The business tools and agent training programs provided by Weichert will really help us grow our real estate company,” added Petersen,
As part of the Weichert franchise network, the Wausau affiliate can take advantage of agent training programs and management systems to help offer the best real estate service in the industry. The office is also eligible to receive sales leads from the Weichert call center to help grow its local market share.
The Petersens’ decision to join the national franchise system was also influenced by the family atmosphere at Weichert.
“We feel like we’re part of a large family after joining Weichert. The company culture at Weichert is just like ours. It’s very welcoming,” added Alyson Petersen.
Weichert Real Estate Affiliates, Inc. President and COO Bill Scavone was pleased to welcome the newest Wisconsin affiliate. “I am thrilled to welcome our new friends at Weichert, Realtors® – Jarpo Group and their clients to the Weichert family.
