We are pleased to announce that HomeServices of America has expanded its footprint in the West Plains area of Missouri with the acquisition of Westgate Realty. Westgate Realty became a Carol Jones licensed affiliate in 2010 and has been operating under the name of Westgate Carol Jones Realtors. With this transaction, we will merge Westgate with Carol Jones Realtors (www.caroljones.com).

Westgate Realty, which serves West Plains, Willow Springs, Mountain View and Northern Arkansas, has been providing real estate services since 1994 and has been the #1 company in the Ozarks consistently maintaining over 37 percent market share since 2005.

Both Westgate Realty and Carol Jones have long-standing reputations for providing clients in the residential real estate market with the highest level of customer service, expertise and resources. With the merger, Carol Jones furthers its position within the West Plains area as the market leader in unit sales and average sales price.

The merger furthers HomeServices’ goal of expanding Carol Jones’ footprint within the Southern Missouri and Northern Arkansas markets and reinforces their strength and market position.

Please join me in welcoming Westgate Realty to Carol Jones Realtors and to the HomeServices family of companies.
