Army mates open Ray White Coffs Harbour

In exciting news, exArmy mates Ben Hottes and Russell Snedden have banded together and opened up Ray White Coffs Harbour.

Mr Hottes will leverage off the exceptional customer service he already delivers in Grafton where he has owned the local Ray White business for the last five years with his wife Kylie.

Both Ben and Russell had long and successful careers in the Australian Army where extraordinary commitment to service and work ethic are instilled.

Ben started working for Ray White and his career has continued to thrive ever since. “Ten years later we are still going strong and now expanding. I am so excited to be opening Coffs Harbour with Russell. He and I joined the Army on the same day 22 years ago and now we are excited to be working together again.

“Coffs Harbour has 70,000 people in the greater area. It’s very much a tourist destination and an attractive place to live and work.”

After the Army, Russell became a professional firefighter serving both in the ACT and Western Australia.

“The partnership with Ben has been seven years in the making. We have ridden the highs and lows together providing support to each other in our individual pursuits. My career in the Army and later as a firefighter requires an unconditional level of service and commitment which will now be demonstrated through our partnership with Ray White. We know what excellence looks like, and we will deliver that to the Coffs community,” Mr Snedden said.

“Coffs is a great place for my family and I to establish ourselves. We love the beach and we are looking forward to becoming part of the community”

Coffs Harbour has been named the best Australian town to visit in 2020 by online travel site Wotif.

Ray White Coffs Harbour is offering free online marketing, photography, videography and floorplans till the end of the financial year.

Ray White NSW CEO Jason Andrew said he was delighted to see Ben Hottes and Russell Snedden open in Coffs Harbour.

“Ben is an established business owner and Russell is an exciting addition to an already proven performer. I cannot wait to see what the future holds but I know these two former soldiers will serve their community well. We look forward to supporting them in all of their endeavours.”
