Prudential Chambers-Fite Realty hosts reception for new partnership

Prudential Chambers-Fite Realty in Hillsboro hosted a May 7 reception in recognition of the new partnership between Lowell Chambers and Rusty Fite.

Real estate professionals and many members of the business community stopped by the office at 216 N. High St. during the two-hour open house Wednesday.

Earlier this year, Prudential Chambers Realty announced the formation of Prudential Chambers-Fite Realty, effective Jan. 1, 2014, when longtime Realtor Rusty Fite became a partner in the local real estate business.

Lowell Chambers and Rusty Fite have a combined 74 years of experience in the real estate and auctioneering profession. Lowell has been in the business for 53 years and Rusty is in his 21st year, including the last 11 years as a broker.

The new Prudential Chambers-Fite Realty traces its origin to the former Hunter-Mayhugh Realty and Auction Company, which was located on East Main Street in Hillsboro, with owners Charlie Hunter and Delmar Mayhugh.

According to the company's website, www.chambersrealty.net, in 1969 Mr. Mayhugh retired and Lowell Chambers became the new co-owner.

The business became Chambers Realty and Auction Company and moved to its present location at 216 North High Street, Hillsboro, in 1993.

In 1995, the company affiliated with Coldwell Banker, a national real estate company. In 2006, Chambers Realty aligned with Prudential and became Prudential Chambers Realty, with 13 full-time agents at that time.

The company has been in business since 1959 and handles everything from commercial real estate to residential, farms, vacant land and auctioneering.
