"The SVNIC difference continues to attract top brokers and businesses in growing markets like the 10 represented here," said Kevin Maggiacomo, president and CEO of SVNIC. "We're excited to see these 10 franchises leverage our platform and take their offices to the next level."

As the only commercial real estate firm that markets all of its properties nationally to a 100,000-member brokerage and investment community, SVNIC has focused on a mission of putting clients first since 1987. From 2010 to 2012, SVNIC gave more than $200 million in shared commissions to its own competitors for bringing the highest bidder to the table. That difference allows advisors to see gains from closing more deals in less time. Advisors also reap the benefits of SVNIC's cloud-based enterprise system that enables easy, on-the-go access to property listings and client contacts; real-time data sharing; and software that allows for assembly of professional proposals and marketing materials.
