Founded about 40 years ago, Century 21 is one of the most successful franchises in the history of real estate, boasting the largest residential sales organization in the world with over 7,600 offices in 71 countries and territories. In Hawaii,
Century 21 All Islands has been an integral part of the brand's success as the 11th ranked firm in the USA for 2011. "This new location is a compliment to our mall offices in The Shops At Wailea, Waikele Center, Waikiki Trade Center and Princeville Shopping Center," said James Wright, President/CEO of Century 21 All Islands. "Our roots go back over 25 years. We're a solid Kama'aina company. We have 10-offices around the state with 320 agents, brokers and support staff...We've won a passel of awards over the years. Along with handling the local residents we are heavily entrenched in the resort and second home venue in real estate with expertise in helping foreign nationals purchase homes in the Hawaiian Islands."
Century 21 will open across from Blue Wilderness Dive Shop in one of the prime
Queens' MarketPlace spaces offered pre-built with "vanilla shell" finishes. "This has been a very successful solution to assisting tenants with opening costs," said Cory Beall of
Beall Corp. In addition to the center's willingness to assist business owners, tenant sales ended 2011 up 24% on average compared to 2010. "The time is right to open a new business in Waikoloa," added Cory.
Queens' MarketPlace is an upscale shopping oasis located within the Waikoloa Beach Resort, a 1,150 acre master planned resort community with nearly 3,000 hotel, condo and time share units and over 50% of the hotel inventory of the entire Kohala Coast. The center features retail, dining and office space as well as two unique entertainment venues: the Waikoloa Bowl at Queens' Gardens, and the Coronation Pavilion in the center of the mall.
