Real Estate Marketing & Beyond
ERA Real Estate, a global franchising leader within the AnywhereSM portfolio of brands, announced today the launch of ERA Summit in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The firm, which has been named a Top Workplace multiple times since 2014, serves the greater Albuquerque area, including the surrounding cities of Corrales, Rio Rancho, Peralta, Los Lunas, Belen, Edgewood, Tijeras, Moriarty, Estancia, Truth or Consequences, Santa Fe, Socorro and Placitas.
With roots dating back to 1964, ERA Summit is a full-service company with more than 50 affiliated agents who work with clients on residential sales and relocations. The firm’s new, modern, agent-centric office features a flexible use of space conducive to collaborating with colleagues, meeting with clients, group learning sessions and individual coaching.
Broker/owners Bridget Gilbert and Laura Garner, who both came from finance backgrounds before starting their real estate careers, are highly respected in the industry. Gilbert currently serves as the 2022 President of the Greater Albuquerque Association of Realtors (GAAR) and has also been recognized by GAAR as the 2020 Sales Manager of the Year. Garner’s accolades include recognition for year-over-year growth and being named Rookie of the Year at her previous brokerage. Together, the two owners foster a people-first philosophy that extends to both clients and agents.
Albuquerque remains one of the most desirable locations to live in New Mexico, as it has the state’s highest population and one of its most diverse cultures. Located near the Sandia Mountains, the city offers access to hiking trails and local parks, including the Petroglyph National Monument. The city is an entertainment hub of recreational activities featuring zoos, aquariums, museums, bars and restaurants. Albuquerque is also home to major employers such as Amazon, Facebook, Sandia Labs, the Kirtland Air Force Base and the University of New Mexico. The region’s warm climate and affordability also makes the city a popular retirement destination.
