Going hyperlocal: 5 brokerages ingraining themselves in their neighborhoods

Find out how these brokerages (and their agents) are making themselves essential parts of the communities they serve:

West + Main Homes

Offering up your office as a gallery space for local artists and fun pop-up events

Denver’s West + Main Homes makes it a priority to open their three walkable storefront offices to the communities they serve. According to Founder, Owner and CEO Stacie Staub, they do this by using their open-concept office spaces as gallery space for local artists, hosting First Friday events for them and participating in local Artwalk events.

West + Main First Friday Events + Pop Up Shops

“We knew that we didn’t want to be stuck on the third floor of an office building somewhere,” Staub said. “We want to be entrenched in the communities where we work, and to be supportive of local artisans and entrepreneurs … who eventually turn into our clients, friends and biggest West + Main cheerleaders!”

The brokerage also hosts two Pop-Up Shop events every year, opening their office space to local artists, crafters, makers and sources of local goods to set up booths at no charge and sell their wares.

“The energy of give-back events like First Friday Artwalk Openings and Pop-Up Shops is unbelievable,” Staub said. “They are a non-stop good-vibe time, bringing new people into our spaces and introducing them to the brand and also giving West + Main agents something to talk about, invite their clients to and enjoy.”

In addition to their support for the arts, West + Main offers meeting space at no charge for local therapy groups, nonprofit meet-ups and candidate meet-and-greets during local elections.

Client appreciation events are set in the community to support local businesses and organizations: Colorado Rockies home opener parties, St. Patrick’s Day parade celebrations, Octoberfest pumpkin give-aways, blood drive days and photos with Santa are all events that West + Main hosts annually.
