Alexandria, VA | January 28, 2026 — At Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty, we believe that where you work should be as inspiring as the communities you serve. That’s why we are so excited to announce that our Columbia office has officially found a new home in the heart of Ellicott City as the Howard County Regional Office. This transition is much more than a change of address—it is a reflection of our deep roots and commitment to Howard and Carroll counties and to providing our agents with a workspace that matches their high-performance standards.

Ellicott City has always been a special place, blending rich history with a vibrant, modern energy. By pivoting to our new Howard County Regional Office, we’re placing our agents right in the center of the action. The new location offers a unique blend of high-visibility branding and a welcoming, community-focused atmosphere. With premium signage and a steady flow of local foot traffic, the office will act as a natural bridge between our professionals and the neighbors they serve—creating those rare, organic opportunities for connection.

We also know that for a busy agent, the "little things" are actually the "big things." We’ve designed this space with convenience in mind, featuring easy access and front-door parking that makes client meetings or quick pit stops between showings completely effortless. This move is about providing a platform where our team can elevate their professional profiles, engage with a higher-priced market, and ultimately grow their businesses in an environment that feels as prestigious as our Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty name.

While our location is new, our accessibility remains the same—we’ve kept our original office phone number to ensure business continues without an interruption.

Shawn Guzzo, Regional President for PenFed Realty, shared her perspective on this milestone, "By moving to this beautiful, high-exposure location, we are giving our team a competitive edge through unmatched visibility, better access to high-end markets, and a professional environment that reflects the powerhouse status we are building in Howard and Carroll counties. This new location will make our agents more accessible to their clients and more prominent in the community, ensuring they have the best possible platform to grow their businesses."

We are incredibly proud to plant our flag even deeper, serving as a primary hub for our clients in Columbia, Clarksville, Sykesville, and Eldersburg. We can’t wait to welcome you into our new office during our Grand Opening celebration this February!
