PRUDENTIAL YORK SIMPSON UNDERWOOD CARY OFFICE TO RELOCATE TO PARK WEST VILLAGE
CARY, NC – Prudential York Simpson Underwood Realty announced earlier this week plans to relocate its Cary office on Kildaire Farms Road to a new location in Park West Village. The new office, located at 1400 Village Market Place, will feature an innovative design targeted to clients and today’s highly-mobile agents. It is slated for completion in April 2012.
“The location and new design of our office in Park West Village will enable Pru YSU to add value to our clients and agents,” said Tommy Camp, President and CEO of Prudential York Simpson Underwood Realty. “It’s convenient, comfortable and chock full of forward-thinking amenities that showcase our leadership in today’s real estate market.”
The new office will provide a welcoming environment that incorporates a mix of work and lifestyle amenities. It will include a coffee bar, wireless internet, large flat screen televisions, state-of-the-art conference rooms and an advanced phone system that allows agents to sync desktop phones with their mobile or home phones.
“Studies show that in real estate offices, 75 to 80 percent of assigned spaces are often unoccupied at any given time. Our new offices in Park West Village will be tailored for today’s agents, who are always on the go yet still need a place where they can easily connect with tools when they do need to be in the office and provide a convenient, professional space that is focused on the client experience,” said Player Murray, Branch Sales Manager of the new Park West Village office.
