Appalachian Commercial Real Estate

Appalachian-CRE

Founded by James Milner, CCIM in 2014, Appalachian Commercial Real Estate (Boone, NC) provides commercial real estate sales, leasing, and appraisal services to owners and users throughout Watauga County and Western North Carolina. Their team’s main objective is to provide clients with all relevant information and resources necessary to simplify the complex processes inherent to commerical real estate.

While CREgrow’s Dave Lewand and James Milner, CCIM have never actually met in real life, both are long-time proponents of social media as an opportunity to develop #CRE relationships. CREgrow is thankful to have engaged James several years ago as a follower, then friend, and now client!

In addition to a corporate website re-launch, CREgrow worked with James  to re-define Appalachian CRE’s online presence via social media account optimization, branded variations of social media post templates, and easy-edit Canva property flyer templates. Be sure to follow Appalachian Commercial Real Estate on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram!

"With the recent expansion of both our team and services, we required a marketing team that could deliver our story successfully - one with a deep understanding of the commercial real estate industry. Dave Lewand drove a transparent process that consistently addressed our unique requirements, resulting in products and services that exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend CREgrow to any fellow CCIM designee or company looking to refresh their brand and online presence."
