Jennifer was absolutely awesome to work with! We ran into a number of issues during our closing. She was extremely patient and stayed by our side every step of the way until we finally closed

40 years ago this December I became the 14th sales agent in the one and only Allen Tate office next to a barber shop over at Sharon Corners. I knew I had chosen the absolute best real estate company in the region and that there would never be a need to go anywhere else. It has been quite a ride made even better with my daughter Chesson Kusterer Seagroves now at my side in the passenger seat as my team partner!

Well, I've only been with Allen Tate for about 3 weeks, but "my goodness!" - I love it. Reason #1: I've watched my mom rave about the tools Tate offers to agents/clients for years, but I had no idea what I was getting. When I got my Atic login, my first words to her were "I WANT FOR NOTHING!" I'm truly grateful to have found a company who understands the struggle of an agent, and has created easy-to-use resources we can customize to be recognized as the expert. Again, I want for nothing. Reason #2: The people (and the training)...My broker, Carol is wonderful. She's not overbearing, but she's very helpful. And Stephanie definitely knows her stuff. It's amazing to me how much the company invests in helping agents be successful - the comprehensive training isn't for everyone, but for someone who wants to be the best, it rocks. I'm also inspired by others around me, and I learn from them daily. Just two reasons (I'm sure of many more to come) that I love working for Allen Tate.

Real estate is a competitive, edge-of-your-seat and (sometimes) cut-throat industry. I joined Allen Tate because I wanted a company that was a safe place to ask questions, learn from other's experiences and to motivate each other to grow. Allen Tate focuses on the agent, proper training and the individual's goals which gives Allen Tate Realtors the confidence and knowledge to close deals. There's an unspoken standard set for Allen Tate Realtors, our integrity makes us leaders in the market.

The Allen Tate Company is a wonderful place to work. The leadership of Pat Riley and Phyllis Brookshire is top-notch. Each one brings their individual strengths and talents to the company by providing the sales teams a vast variety of coaching, mentoring, training, tools, technology, and marketing programs to help them succeed in their real estate careers. As Director of the Professional Development Department for the company, I have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others by providing exceptional training opportunities for our sales force. The legacy and local community commitment passed down from our founder Mr. H. Allen Tate, Jr. is one of the many reasons I chose to affiliate with this well-respected industry leader.

As an instructor for Superior School of Real Estate, one of the largest and most prestigious real estate schools in the Carolinas, I see newly licensed agents struggling with the same frustrations every single day. Simply put: newly licensed agents just don’t know what they just don’t know. It takes more than a phenomenal pre- and post-licensing experience to capture that “magic sauce” to be superstar in this business; it takes the support of a dedicated network to help you develop every step of the way. I consider Allen Tate to be THE benchmark firm, when it comes to providing the in-house support and training needed to turn new agents into successful ones - and identifying those secret ingredients for that magic sauce. Tate agents have access to a level of ongoing training and skill development that, in my mind, truly sets them apart. Allen Tate seems to have made the decision to not just share in their new agents' success, but to INVEST in their agents' success - and that investment can make all the difference in the world!

In Asheboro City Schools, our focus is on providing the best educational opportunities to each of our students every single day.

All the folks at Allen Tate are so gracious and supportive of education in Guilford County. They continually look for ways to support our teachers, students and schools from reading to classes, donating school supplies, funding programs through Guilford Education Alliance to build community support for our school system. We are so proud to call them partner and consider them to be one of our best corporate citizens. Thank you, Allen Tate Realtors!

Thanks to the longstanding and generous support of Phyllis Brookshire, Tom Gongaware and all of the staff at Allen Tate Realtors, The Poe Center's Dental Health Programs reach 2,000 NC children with the health education to prevent tooth decay, the single most chronic childhood disease. Children in pre-kindergarten through third grade learn the basics of caring for their teeth through Poe's interactive, hands-on activities including Mr. Big Mouth and Sheriff Tuffy Tooth! Children learn content that aligns with the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction's Healthful Living Essential Standards, so they are learning what they need for school, too! And if that was not enough, the Allen Tate brokers and staff come to the Poe Center to help maintain the facility through corporate service days and donations for the children who attend Poe programs. I cannot say enough about the commitment Phyllis and her team provide the Poe Center each year. We are proud to partner with Allen Tate. Thank you, Allen Tate!

More than $9,000 was raised and a record number participated in the Run Friends Run 5K Walk/Run in October 2015.

DCEF sponsored three Teacher Mini-Grants this year. These surprise presentations, which include a certificate and check, are given to a deserving teacher in their classroom.

In June and July, both Leadership and STARS Academies had successful weeks at Davidson County Community College. We look forward to continued success for each of these programs in 2016 with enriched programming and dedicated staff.

Project Potential Scholarships returned to all Davidson County High Schools this year. We look forward to growing these scholarships as successful fundraising grows. We are also working on adding several new Endowed Scholarships to the current list of 30 which are presented to deserving seniors in May.
