SUCCESSFUL MERGER MEANS ADDED GROWTH FOR PRUDENTIAL CALIFORNIA REALTY


( MODESTO, California) Prudential California Realty, one of the largest and top-producing real estate companies in California, is continuing its expansion by means of an additional acquisition. Prudential California Realty has merged with and acquired a Prudential California Realty brokerage in Vallejo, California.

This firm officially merged with Prudential California Realty in Modesto, Calif. on May 1, 2008 when company President/CEO Craig C. Lewis and Prudential California Realty Vallejo, Betty Low signed paperwork to make the two brokerages one. In addition, Guarantee Pacific Mortgage, a mortgage company, will be a part of the newly merged company.

Donna Spangler will continue to lead the operation as Team Leader as Prudential California Realty furthers its expansion into the Vallejo market. We are excited to welcome aboard Betty Low, Cesar Angel, Donald Colbert, Julie Fox, Beverly Glover, George Glover Jr., Gina Leigh, Bill Papke and Robert Parks as sales professionals to the Vallejo office.  Offices of the new firm will be located at 1610 Tennessee Street in Vallejo.

Now with offices in Stanislaus, San Joaquin, Fresno, Napa, Solano and Yolo counties, Prudential California Realty with its mortgage entities has strengthened its presence in Northern California.  The newly merged company will operate as Prudential California Realty under the direction of Craig C. Lewis.

"Betty shares Prudential California Realty's commitment to innovation and dedication to quality customer service," said Craig C. Lewis. "This merger will greatly enhance the excellent reputations for satisfying homeowners that both companies already enjoy."
