A
new chapter unfolds at the Laurel Mall as Agent Real Estate Group cuts the ribbon, marking its debut as the first realty group to call the mall home. Co-owner Joseph Naseef Jr. cites the location's prime spot as a major draw, thanks to the steady stream of foot traffic and visibility that comes with it.

    "We're not just looking for any old space," Naseef explains. "We want to be where the community is, where people can easily find us. The Laurel Mall has always been a cornerstone of Hazleton, and we're proud to be a part of that."

    As malls across the region adapt to changing times, Agent Real Estate Group is poised to capitalize on the shift towards service-oriented businesses. "The future of malls is all about blending retail with services like insurance and real estate," Naseef predicts. "We're excited to be at the forefront of this trend."

    With its central location and accessible public transportation options, the Laurel Mall offers a unique advantage for new businesses looking to make a splash. Greater Hazleton Chamber of Commerce President Mary Malone notes that the mall's easy-to-reach location is just one reason why Agent Real Estate Group is well-positioned for success.

    As Naseef and his co-owner Neil D'Amato work to establish their agency, they're driven by a commitment to exceptional service. Both have extensive experience in the industry, but this marks their first venture together. By mid-May, they expect to have a team of 10 agents on board, ready to serve the community with expertise and dedication.

    When you need expert guidance navigating the local real estate market, Agent Real Estate Group is now open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with Saturday and Sunday appointments available by request.
