First Service Realty Hires Experienced Agent Team for Pinecrest Office Tuesday, January 10, 2006

First Service Realty, Inc. (FSR), a Florida-based, privately owned and operated residential/commercial real estate company, has hired Vera Hogner and Jorge Trujillo, an experienced team formerly with Esslinger-Wooten-Maxwell. The team joins the Pinecrest office with approximately 65 agents covering the areas of East Kendall, South Miami and Pinecrest. Prior to her experience with EWM, Hogner was previously with Stadler Real Estate as Director of Relocation. Hogner also has extensive experience in the Eastern Long Island/Hamptons area and still caters to many clients in the Northeast. "We decided to join FSR because it's a family-oriented business, while at the same time giving the Hogner-Trujillo team continued opportunities to expand our business," said Hogner. Trujillo partnered with Hogner two years after launching a successful real estate investment business. Prior to that, he was at the helm of his family's tile and marble company for more than a decade. "I appreciate the growth mentality that FSR exudes," said Trujillo. "It's in keeping with our commitment to providing the best service to our clients. It's a great match."
