“This partnership will allow Realtors to remain hyper-local and work across counties with ease. This is an important part of strengthening Broward,” Jeffrey Levine, president of RAPB + GFLR, said in a statement.

“Our collective members were already doing a majority of the business in Broward and with complete [county-wide] jurisdiction, they now have an even stronger market presence,” Dionna Hall, who will serve as CEO of the merged association, said in a statement.

The Pembroke Pines office of South Broward Board of Realtors will remain open, and a new South Broward Regional Board of Directors will be formed.
