“We have a strong foundation of agents supporting consumers on their home and commercial real estate buying, selling and leasing journeys across Latin America,” William Soteroff, president of Keller Williams Worldwide, said in a statement. “And we are excited to announce our remarkable new leaders in Honduras and the Turks and Caicos that match our values and have each set a powerful vision, understanding the immense opportunity we have in front of us.”
The Honduras franchise will be led by Raul Martinez, while the Turks and Caicos franchise will be led by Terry Meneley.
The new franchises come at a time of immense growth across Keller Williams’ international operations, which closed 2019 at 9,945 agents and 226 market centers operating outside the United States and Canada.
