Burnett Realty, Well-Known Central Iowa Brokerage, merges with
Nation’s Second-Largest Franchise, Keller Williams® Realty
CLIVE – Burnett Realty, a leading independent central Iowa
brokerage since its founding 12 years ago, merged today with
Keller Williams® Realty, which is the fastest-growing residential
real estate firm in North America and the nation’s secondlargest real estate franchise.
“We give agents the tools and information to get the job done,”
Bell said. “That’s why, on average, Keller Williams agents were
almost three times more effective than the National Association
of Realtors average in sales closed last year. That’s great for
agents and, especially, the people they represent.”
The firm, located at 10200 Hickman Court, will operate under
the name Keller Williams® Greater Des Moines effective
immediately. Doug Burnett, who founded Burnett Realty in March
2000, will remain with Keller Williams as an investor. Kacy Bell,
of Tulsa, Okla., will lead the firm as its operating principal.
This is the second market center for Keller Williams® Realty in
Iowa, the first of which is located in the Quad Cities. They are
excited to enter one of the few major markets without a Keller
Williams® Realty. This focus on growth has grown the company
34.8 percent between 2005 and 2010.
“This merger’s synergies will have a positive effect on our
agents and for the buyers and sellers we serve in the greater
Des Moines area,” Burnett said. “Burnett Realty has always
had a solid reputation for high-quality client service and
unparalleled ethical standards. The decision to become a Keller
Williams® franchise was based on our similar beliefs in cultural
and professional standards.”
“Keller Williams is excited about opening a new market center
in greater Des Moines,” said Mark Willis, chief executive offer
of Keller Williams® Realty International. “Our company has
a policy of limiting its market presence by selecting only the
premier partners in a given area. These individuals are top
producers – or have the potential to be so. By maintaining our
standards of excellence, we can provide Keller Williams Realty
customers with the best real estate experience possible.”
He added, “A large part of making this decision is that this
really was the only way we were going to grow and grow in a
way congruent with our values. And, growth is very important
to give agents all the tools they need to succeed and to serve
our clients.”
Bell said Keller Williams® Realty distinguishes itself in
education and support of the Realtors® and service to their
customers. Aspects of support include a network of nearly
80,000 associates and a unique use of technology that takes
advantage of 300 search engines that ensure every potential
lead ends up in the hands of the listing agent.

QR Codes are Revolutionizing Real Estate
What is a QR code?
A QR or Quick Response code, also known as a 2D barcode, gives
users information on their smart phone or cell phone in an
instant. In the simplest sense, think print-based link to web.
If you see these QR codes, you take a photo through an
application on your smart phone or cell phone, the program
analyzes or scans the barcode, and it asks if you’d like to be
redirected to a web address/URL.
Can I use QR codes on my phone?
Because this technology is relatively new, there is no standard
program or application for you to use. iPhones® and BlackBerrys®
accommodate QR scanning applications quite easily and have very
inexpensive (or even free) downloads available from their respective
application stores.
Even some cell phones allow it.
Go to this website to see if your smart phone is compatible and
to download code reader software to get started with QR Codes.

Polk City
Nestled in the heart of Iowa’s Lake Countr y, Polk City,
Iowa combines the best of small town living, outdoor
activities, and big city convenience.
“It is important to us to keep the small town feel,” said
City Administrator Gary Mahannah. “Through our smart
planning and zoning Polk City has great connectivity and
we see comprehensive sustainable growth.”
Located just 20 minutes north of Iowa’s capitol city Des
Moines and 18 miles south of Ames, Polk City offers
easy access to a wide range of cultura l, educational,
entertainment, and transportation centers. Shopping
malls, movies and great restaurants are all close enough
for Polk City residents to take advantage of, but far
enough away to leave the noise and congestion behind.

Stanbrough Realty, with its distinctive gold signs and black lettering was a family-operated enterprise through the 1960s
and early 1970s playing a part in Des Moines' great comeback era of the late 1970s and 1980s. And through the family
name has been in the real estate market ever since the start on New Years Day 1960, the name itself is undergoing a
renaissance as a business icon.
For advertising information,

Stanbrough Realty changed its name to First Realty in 1983, with Dan as president, grew to 700 sales associates in 60
offices; the family company was later merged into a regional financial institution.

"In 2001, my two sons were in their early 20s and interested and already both investing and building. We decided to
bring the family name back into the market, something people hadn't seen in many years. I was encouraged to see how
much familiarity our name still had in the community as a real estate company." Gold and black is back!

"We try to spend our time understand out customers desires. We ask, 'What do people really want?', 'Where do they
want to live?' We know people want nature and amenities such as trees and water; they don't want just buildings, they
want quality recreation and lifestyle aesthetics. We're very conscious of conservation. We work around nature. Our
new neighborhoods reflect our commitment to developing in harmony with nature."
