Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices (BHHS) New Jersey Properties recently announced the acquisition of the Rumson office of Prudential Zack Shore Properties, located at 101 East River Road, bringing the BHHS New Jersey Properties office count to 20 locations throughout northern and central New Jersey.

BHHS New Jersey Properties CEO Bill Keleher and General Sales Manager Chris Brown, who are among the company’s ownership team with Seymour Litwin, Nancy Litwin and Steve Janett, joined president and owner of Prudential Zack Shore Properties Kevin Thomas on Sept. 23 to announce to the Rumson team an agreement in principle, with the effective date of the acquisition retroactive to Oct. 1, 2014.

Karolyn Wray has agreed to continue as the manager of the new Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New Jersey Properties Rumson office.

Previously Prudential New Jersey Properties, Keleher’s company rebranded to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New Jersey Properties on June 24, 2014, remaining an independently owned and operated real estate company and member of HSF Affiliates LLC which operates real estate brokerage networks Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, Prudential Real Estate, and Real Living Real Estate.

“As members of the same affiliate network, we have had the privilege of working alongside Kevin and the Zack Shore team for many years,” noted Keleher. “We share a similar culture and hands-on management approach, which makes this transition a natural fit. With our company’s existing Manalapan and Millstone offices in western Monmouth County, the addition of a Rumson location expands our reach to the Jersey Shore and other points south in Ocean County. Moreover, we are confident that our new Luxury Collection and global network will effectively serve the needs of luxury homebuyers and sellers throughout the area. This is an exciting day for our company’s agents and employees, as well as the clients and customers we serve, and we are thrilled to welcome Karolyn and the Rumson team to our BHHSNJ family.”
