Advance Realty in Bel Air Joins the Most Recognized Name in Real Estate to Support Future Growth in Northeast Maryland
BEL AIR, Md. (July 24, 2025) – Century 21 Real Estate LLC, a global industry leader and the most recognized name in real estate*, is fortifying its brand’s presence in the greater Baltimore area with the affiliation of Advance Realty in Bel Air.
Terry Berkeridge started the company in 2005 and is still with the business as an associate broker. The full-service brokerage was purchased by the current owner, Patrick Campbell, in 2020. Patrick is a lifelong salesperson, who joined Advance Realty in 2009 and has since developed an array of real estate skills that can help his clients and agents alike.
Under his leadership, the firm provides residents throughout Baltimore City and Baltimore, Cecil, Harford, Howard, and Montgomery counties with in-depth, personalized assistance with residential real estate needs.
Now doing business as CENTURY 21 Advance Realty, Patrick and his independent sales professionals will have access to the CENTURY 21® brand’s world-class technology and marketing, lead generation, agent learning, and coaching. Patrick intends to use these tools to bolster organic growth efforts through local recruiting, as well as to pursue nearby M&A opportunities.
“To be able to join the most recognized name in real estate* is an opportunity that we knew we couldn’t pass up,” said Patrick. “No matter where you are, the CENTURY 21 brand is synonymous with respectable, reliable service. We’re incredibly proud to be the latest to join the C21® network, and I’m confident that our affiliated agents and clients alike will benefit tremendously from the new tools and name recognition that come from affiliating with the CENTURY 21 brand.”
The firm’s guiding philosophy is that belief that people are the drivers behind today’s real estate industry. Regardless of talent or education, they only welcome new faces that fit their business philosophy of providing stress-free, rewarding service. This commitment to excellence is largely why the brokerage is still successful more than 20 years after it was originally founded.
“No one can truly provide the best service without a network of specialists supporting them,” said Patrick. “That’s why everything we do is with collaboration in mind. No client or agent is ever alone in the transaction process. We all have each other’s backs and are eager to lend a helping hand in our unique areas of expertise whenever we can. Now, with the support of the CENTURY 21® brand, our emphasis on collaboration will be even more prominent.”
The CENTURY 21 Advance Realty office in Bel Air is located well within driving distance of two major metros – Baltimore and Washington, D.C. The area is home to several prestigious universities, reputable healthcare facilities, and major employers. Patrick notes that many families, retirees, and military veterans alike are drawn to his business thanks to those drivers, and as a result, the firm has become accustomed to serving residents from all walks of life.
“Patrick represents everything that the CENTURY 21 brand looks for in a potential broker – deep personal knowledge of the community, a proven track record of success and client commitment, and a desire to innovate,” said Mike Miedler, president and CEO of Century 21 Real Estate LLC. “Not to mention, Patrick also serves an incredibly lucrative market, just outside of Baltimore and with close proximity to D.C. metro as well. We can’t wait to provide his company with access to the technology and resources to help further expand their reach throughout the area.”
The CENTURY 21 Advance Realty leadership is looking for motivated and ambitious sales professionals to join this growing real estate company. Whether exploring a new professional opportunity or looking to elevate a long-lasting real estate business, new faces are welcome. Area residents who are looking to make a move in the future are encouraged to visit at 2021 A Emmorton Road, Suite 120 in Bel Air, MD 21015 or call 410-688-3117 to learn more about this opportunity.
