Dave Roberts Joins Hall Realty
After much thought and consideration, Dave Roberts, owner of Royal Elk Realty has decided to close his Independent Broker office and join Hall Realty as a Broker Associate. Hall Realty is celebrating their 40th year and is thrilled to welcome Dave to the office.
Hall Realty was established in 1978 by Bill and Ruthanna Hall and is currently owned and operated by Jeff and Danielle (Hall) Worthen, alongside Broker Associate and Vacation Rentals Manager, Annette Anthony.
Roberts first came to Lake City with wife and County Clerk, Joan Roberts, in 1989. Together they owned and operated the Lake City Resort for 15 years. Dave obtained his real estate license in May of 2006 and was a Broker Associate with United Country Blue Moose Realty. In 2009, Roberts ventured out as an Independent Broker and opened Royal Elk Realty.
“It’s been 9 years,” Roberts said, “and it’s been very successful. But the business of real estate is very time consuming and a lot of work for just one person. It just makes sense to join with Hall because we have worked together for years. I think we can do a better job together and offer an even higher quality experience for our clientele.”
Roberts and Worthens agree that the ultimate goal in marrying their like-minded real estate business approach is providing excellent customer service. “What we strive for are satisfied and loyal real estate sellers and buyers,” Danielle said. “Dave is such a great addition to the Hall Realty family. We’ve shown properties and closed transactions together for years, and feel we are very well matched.”
Roberts reports that this new endeavor has left him feeling re-energized with a fresh outlook. WORLD asked him what the biggest lesson is that he has learned during ownership of Royal Elk. He replied, “Whatever you do, do it honestly. The difference is caring. You have to treat others the way you want to be treated. I intend to carry that philosophy with me to Hall.”
“It’s that attitude, how Dave wants clients to have a quality experience – the fact that he wants to be the difference, and his professionalism – that’s exactly why we want to bring him on,” Danielle said.
Roberts asked that WORLD express his sincere thanks to everyone who supported Royal Elk Realty knowing that he could not have succeeded without his loyal clients. He looks forward to continuing those relationships in his future real estate success with the Hall Realty family.
