As part of Keyes’ Fort Lauderdale office, led by District Sales Manager Beth Patterson, Coloney Group plans to move into the firm’s 1520 E. Sunrise Blvd. location. Until then, it continues to operate out of its existing office at 606 E. Broward Blvd.

“We are thrilled to welcome the talented agents of Coloney Group to our family,” said Keyes CEO Mike Pappas. “George has assembled and developed an incredible team that will undoubtedly add tremendous value to our Fort Lauderdale operation.”

Coloney has a five-decade history of building businesses nationally and internationally.

Leveraging his unparalleled track record in sales and entrepreneurship, Coloney ventured into real estate and found success in land aggregation, commercial redevelopment and preconstruction opportunities.

“I have a deep admiration for the leadership at Keyes,” said Coloney. “I felt the firm’s independence and passion for serving its customers would fit perfectly with our team’s approach. Keyes provides substantial technology, marketing support and additional tools that our agents will greatly benefit from.”

The addition of Coloney Group continues a period of significant growth for Keyes. The firm continues to pursue opportunities to expand with top producers and independent brokerages seeking to benefit from its cutting-edge technology and integrated services.
