In today\u2019s competitive and fluid landscape we are the preferred choice for market leaders looking to join a company known for its integrity, financial strength, and operational excellence,\u201d Peltier said. \u201cTo best capitalize, I wanted to add an executive with an extended history of enterprise growth and success. Gino has been instrumental in the growth and continued success of our franchise networks. His extraordinary expertise will provide a valuable added level of support for me and for our companies and will be a tremendous addition to the superb leadership team already in place.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-54375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realtrends.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/01\/gb_hires_rt_1.jpg\" alt=\"Gino Blefari\" width=\"133\" height=\"189\"> Gino Blefari<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Gino Blefari (left) began his real estate career more than 30 years ago and held executive leadership positions at Century 21 Seville Contempo and NRT before founding Silicon Valley-based Intero Real Estate Services, which HomeServices of America acquired in 2014.
