Platinum Living Realty announced award-winning real estate agent and coach Bret Ceren has joined the brokerage.

With a background in corporate marketing, finance, and operations, Mr. Ceren launched his real estate career in 2014 and has excelled as a specialist of North Valley residential properties, according to a press release.

“The greater North Valley is already an amazing place, and it still has so much potential,” he said in a prepared statement. “For years I’ve had a vision of what it can be to live in, work and play here. Helping home buyers and sellers accomplish their real estate goals here is extremely fulfilling.”

Among Mr. Ceren’s many accolades include 2019 Scottsdale Association of Realtors 40 Under 40 as well as The American Dream TV’s “Power Player of Real Estate” designation.

Jay and Michelle Macklin, co-owners of Platinum Living Realty, say adding Mr. Ceren to their roster of agents will lead to their expansion plans across the Valley.

“Bret’s reputation as a sought-after realtor in the North Valley is well known,” Mr. Macklin said in a prepared statement.

“I’ve been able to see Bret’s strategic mindset and work ethic firsthand through the Craig Proctor Real Estate Coaching program, one of our industry’s leading programs. He will be a valuable asset as part of the Platinum Living Realty team.”

Mr. Ceren said he’s worked alongside Mr. Macklin for many years, training and developing agents across North America.

“To be able to join him and Michelle with all they have happening at Platinum Living Realty is a tremendous honor,” Mr. Ceren said. “It will be exciting to see what we are able to accomplish in the North Valley.”

Craig Proctor Coaching is an International Real Estate Success Coaching organization that has shaped the lives of over 30,000 Real Estate Agents across the globe. Both Mr. Macklin and Mr. Ceren are members of the Craig Proctor Real Estate Coaches Network.

“Bret soaked up everything we offered and was quick to implement, resulting in rapid growth in his business that earned him our Rookie of the Year Award in 2017,” Craig Proctor, founder of Craig Proctor Real Estate Coaching & Seminars, said in a prepared statement.

“Furthermore, both Bret and Jay are fine people and smart businessmen. Working together within Platinum Living Realty they are undoubtedly destined for massive growth and a brokerage to watch.”
