A new start for Ottawa’s Century Action Power Team

CENTURY 21 Action Power Team Ltd. was recently sold to Marc-Andre Perrier and Stephen George, who both began in real estate with the company. The pair saw the opportunity to continue the 45-year legacy built by former owners, Pasquale Ricciuti and Suzanne Robinson.

“We’re passionate about growth and innovation,” says Perrier in a release. “We want to expand our team, embrace emerging technologies and leverage all the tools that CENTURY 21 Canada provides.”

“It’s great to see new owners come into established brokerages with a fresh perspective,” says Todd Shyiak, Executive Vice President of CENTURY 21 Canada.

“As longtime members of our network, Marc-Andre and Stephen are in the best position to continue our commitment to the gold standard level of service while also looking for ways to bring in new technology and training programs that will see the brokerage grow, year after year. They’ve been great to work with and we look forward to seeing them at our annual events for many years to come.”

 

What led them to purchase

George was ready to bring a fresh perspective to the industry. “We’ve witnessed significant change during our time here,” he explains. “We want to take advantage of the cutting-edge technology and new opportunities that CENTURY 21 Canada offers to brokerages.”

Perrier praises the brand’s annual OneC21 conference, an opportunity for CENTURY 21 professionals to get together, connect and learn.

“Our recent experience at the OneC21 conference was incredible,” mentions Perrier. “We enjoyed the networking opportunities and recognized how CENTURY 21 Canada is leading the way in modernizing the real estate industry.”

George appreciates CENTURY 21 staying ahead of the curve. “We admire how CENTURY 21 Canada is continuously improving their technology offerings,” he explains. “Their websites for every agent and their partnership with MoxiWorks are just two examples. We knew our brokerage could become even more future-ready.”

 

What’s next?

The new owners are embracing the future in the plans for the brokerage. They look to bring on like-minded agents who share their values and can thrive in change. This strategy includes leveraging local expertise and focusing on what sets Ottawa and area communities apart.

“It’s all about serving our local communities and continuing to give back,” says George. “We want to provide exceptional service and expertise in our specific areas.”
