Corcoran Expands to Raleigh

Corcoran expands to Raleigh and joins forces with DeRonja Real Estate. 

There’s a new—yet familiar—name on Raleigh’s red-hot real estate scene. NYC-based The Corcoran Group, founded in 1973 by Barbara Corcoran of Shark Tank fame, recently expanded to the City of Oaks, teaming up with Raleigh’s DeRonja Real Estate to launch Corcoran DeRonja Real Estate. The buzzy partnership bridges the gap between world-class service and local expertise.

“I am honored to announce that DeRonja Real Estate is now affiliated with Corcoran, one of the world’s premier residential real estate companies,” says founder and principal broker Frank DeRonja. “While we remain locally owned and independent, we now benefit from the enhanced marketing exposure, reach and services the Corcoran brand offers.”

Although Corcoran has a strong existing presence in the Carolinas (think offices in Charlotte and Wilmington), DeRonja says the company had been eyeing our market for several years, recognizing the same qualities that draw people to the Triangle—“a first-class, stable community ideal for business,” he explains.

As Corcoran began to hone in on Raleigh, DeRonja says the culture of his eponymous firm proved to be an “incredible match” with the internationally renowned luxury brand. “Their award-winning advertising campaign, Live Who You Are, perfectly aligns with our values and the way we operate,” he shares. “Our focus on collaboration and relationships—rather than just transactions—complements Corcoran‘s emphasis on individuality, making our office truly one-of-a-kind.” And with DeRonja’s expert team of agents boasting an average of 15+ years of experience, it’s no wonder Corcoran took notice. 

After months of prepping for the exciting transition, Corcoran DeRonja Real Estate launched in September and is now actively seeking growth opportunities in the Triangle—and beyond. “DeRonja Real Estate has spent the last 14 years building an unmatched reputation for serving clients throughout the Triangle,” DeRonja shares. “As we begin our 15th year as Corcoran DeRonja Real Estate, we are excited to continue raising the bar for service, integrity and market expertise.” Sounds like we have ourselves a deal. drefirm.com
