NASHVILLE, TN, - Crye-Leike, REALTORS agents at the company's Midtown branch office in Nashville, Tennessee are issuing a challenge to their fellow company associates and Realtor colleagues through out the Middle Tennessee region this holiday season.

The branch has launched a Coat Drive For The Homeless in participation with the Belmont Church in Nashville and is encouraging Realtors across the Greater Nashville area to join in.

"We normally work with homeowners and prospective homeowners on a daily basis," said Wanda Batson, Coat Drive Coordinator and Crye-Leike Midtown agent.  "In this case we felt the need to help out to the homeless, so we're asking everyone in our office to get in touch with their friends and neighbors for donations of new or gently used winter coats."

Wanda, a 17-year veteran of real estate sales in the region, has seen her share of smilin...

Sometimes real estate agents make life-lasting impressions on their clients and for Crye-Leike, Realtors Vice-President Affiliate Broker Kay Paul, this was recently the case.

 

"A former client of mine, Nelson Crook, recently contacted me after 12 years, needing my services again but in a very different way this time," said Paul.

 

"He needed help shipping Christmas stockings to 1,500 Marines serving their country during the holidays, which included his son, Kevin. Nelson knew he could count on Crye-Leike once again."

 

Once Paul received the request, she turned to friend and co-agent Joyce McKenzie. The two worked together to help bring holiday cheer to Lance Corporal Kevin Cr...

Crye-Leike, one of the largest real estate groups in the Southeast, has launched a new program aimed at encouraging realtors to identify families in the community facing foreclosure and help them find a solution.

 

According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, 50% of those who lose their homes to foreclosure have never once contacted the lender.

 

Jai Lipscomb has been a realtor for six years.

 

She said she was shocked to learn so many people facing foreclosures didn't ask for help.

 

"It is over whelming that people are not asking for the help when it is sitting right there," she told New...

About a week ago, a woman called Ellis Rankin, an associate broker at Crye-Leike Inc., about one of his advertisements offering help with lease/purchase transactions and rental homes.

 

The woman needed a place to live, and as Rankin began asking her questions, she told him her home was scheduled for foreclosure in January. The woman, who lived in her house for 20 years, had fallen behind on her payments and figured there was nothing to do but look for a place to rent.

 

Rankin visited the woman at her house and suggested she call the bank about ways to avoid foreclosure. Rankin even spoke to the bank on her behalf, saying the woman wanted to stay in the home and would need some kind of loan workout or modification to get back on tr...
