[Read the original](https://www.franchising.com/news/20260430_the_century_21_brand_fortifies_its_presence_along_the_chesapeake_bay_with_l.html).* ## Key facts - Century 21 affiliates with Together Home Group - Lakisha Brown-White leads the boutique brokerage - Brokerage serves military veterans and families ## Story ## New affiliation The boutique brokerage is led by the husband and wife duo of managing and principal broker, Lakisha Brown-White, and co-founder, Brian White. Brown-White has leadership experience as Together Home Group has launched multiple brokerages. She is a results-driven leader who instills in her team a commitment to treating every client with a "luxury" level of service, regardless of the price point. Before becoming a licensed real estate professional in 2018, she independently operated her own hair salon business, which is where she discovered her natural ability to foster customer relationships. Today, Brown-White is not only an experienced broker, but she is also a Certified Real Estate Staging Professional, a Certified Luxury Home Agent, and a Certified Buyers Agent. A significant portion of the firm’s business comes from military veterans and their families, thanks to the pair’s status as Certified Military Relocation Professionals, as well as White’s background as a former U.S. Marine. White spent five years in the Marine Corps, including two active duty tours of Iraq where he eventually reached the rank of Sergeant before being Honorably Discharged. Once White returned to the U.S. , he briefly worked as an IT professional before entering the real estate industry. Now, he, Brown and their affiliated agents serve residents throughout Hampton Roads and the Peninsula metro areas with everything from luxury and investment property assistance to historic home expertise, design and staging, and first-time homebuyer support. ## Century 21 benefits Now operating as CENTURY 21 Together, Brown-White, White, and their independent sales professionals will have access to the brand’s world-class technology, marketing resources, lead generation, agent learning, and coaching. As a relatively young brokerage, the duo looked to the CENTURY 21 brand to help jumpstart their recruiting efforts by leveraging the brand’s resources and widespread name recognition. “As a results-driven real estate leader, I approach my work with a genuine family-focused mindset that always prioritizes the needs of my clients,” said Brown-White. “The CENTURY 21 brand aligns exceptionally well with that mission while also providing us with the tools we need to pursue our future business goals. Having the support of a recognizable, respected national brand is truly invaluable.” CENTURY 21 Together is a boutique, veteran-led brokerage serving its local community. Through its people-first, legacy-driven culture and experience serving military families and diverse demographics, clients buy and sell through the firm with confidence. “We only look for local agents who view our community as an extension of their own family,” said White. “Our work revolves around empowering clients through personalized service, professionalism and guidance. At CENTURY 21 Together, we don’t just handle transactions – we transform your real estate dreams into reality, together.” Hampton and surrounding communities in Virginia include coastal living options and an economic base with nearby military installations, port-related jobs, and a NASA research center. The area’s higher education opportunities and waterfront landscapes contribute to local activity. “It’s especially meaningful to welcome a veteran-led, family brokerage into the CENTURY 21 Network,” said Mike Miedler, president and CEO of Century 21 Real Estate LLC. “Lakisha and Brian have proven more than once their ability to build a business grounded in trust, service and commitment, all of which align them perfectly with the CENTURY 21 brand. Their commitment to supporting military families and other at-risk groups resonates deeply with Hampton residents, and we’re proud to join them in their mission of making homeownership attainable for all.” CENTURY 21 Together is an independently owned and operated franchise affiliate of CENTURY 21 Real Estate LLC. The CENTURY 21 brand equips its system members with industry-leading tools, resources, and marketing assets that help take their business to new heights.
