Boutique brokerage serving picturesque Bucks, Montgomery, Wayne and Pike Counties leans into real estate\u2019s lifestyle brand to connect with consumers<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

MADISON, N.J. (July 15, 2026) \u2013 <\/strong>Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Realty Connect today announced a merger with Exceed Realty in Pennsylvania, which has offices in Southampton, Yardley and Honesdale.<\/p>\n

The agreement follows last month\u2019s landmark merger<\/a> of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Maturo in New Jersey and Harrisburg, Pa., and Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Dream Properties in Long Island, NY, with Realty Connect USA, also serving Long Island, which created one of the brand\u2019s largest companies.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2019 by Robert Sulecki<\/a>, Exceed Realty will now do business as Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Realty Connect. Sulecki, a real estate veteran with 20 years of experience, will serve as the brokerage\u2019s head of growth and operations in Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

With this announcement, the combined company now comprises nearly 1,200 affiliated real estate professionals across 25 offices and a footprint stretching from Harrisburg, Pa., to Westhampton, NY.<\/p>\n

Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Realty Connect is led by co-owners Albert Faiola and Frank Stimiloski, who started their real estate company 10 years ago in New Jersey with a single office. Chief Operating Officer Steve Deans oversees the firm\u2019s New Jersey operations, which includes about 100 affiliated agent who are dual licensed in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

\u201cJoining forces with Robert gives the company a face and a foothold across the Delaware River and fortifies our presence in the East Penn market as we move forward on our westward expansion to Harrisburg and increase our market share in Philadelphia,\u201d explained Stimiloski. \u201cWe are a growing regional platform with a scope and scale that gives agents more opportunity, more connections, more referrals, more visibility, and more support,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cRobert\u2019s extensive knowledge of Bucks and Montgomery counties, popular destinations for many NJ residents, is invaluable, as is his experience serving the Lake Region of the Northern Poconos,\u201d said Faiola. \u201cHis boutique, hand-on approach to serving both clients and agents is highly respected, making him a great cultural fit for the firm and the ideal person to attract new talent.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAgents are excited about gaining more resources, support, tools, learning opportunities, marketing, and brand support without losing the local culture and relationships they value,\u201d said Sulecki. \u201cThe rare combination of local leadership, regional scale and national brand power gives them a stronger platform to grow their business and better serve their clients.<\/p>\n

Affiliated agents have access to numerous business-building resources through Be Better University\u00ae<\/sup>, as well as specialized programs such as the TrendmakerSM<\/sup> Accreditation course, designed to help agents identify and leverage emerging consumer and design trends. They also benefit from the brand\u2019s recognition and sophisticated marketing assets, including the Distinctive Collection by Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate\u00ae, brand\u2019s specialized luxury marketing platform.<\/p>\n
