“We recognize today’s consumers have an endless array of options when it comes to homebuying services,” said Frank Virga, branch manager with Embrace Home Loans in Hauppauge, New York, who developed the partnership. “Our two companies have a very strong presence in the local Long Island market. By collaborating, we can more effectively serve homebuyers in what has become an extremely competitive marketplace.”

According to Virga, both Embrace and the local Keller Williams offices are experiencing tremendous growth in their sales teams. “Our companies encompass entrepreneurial and innovative cultures that attract top sales professionals, so this partnership makes a lot of sense,” he said. “We look forward to helping Keller Williams Core agents take their business to the next level through the use of cutting-edge technology, sound sales strategies and continuous learning.”
