The Closing Place holds grand opening for new location - Murphy, NC 28906
(Murphy NC)
The Closing Place’s grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony was held last Wednesday at its new location on Tennessee Street.
Business partners Sherry Snyder and Angie Ledford opened the first office in Murphy in October 2000 with six employees. Soon a new building was constructed on Tennessee Street next to Foxfire Realty, now occupied by the law firm of Cowan and Cowan.
When Snyder saw her business growing rapidly and recognized the need for more employees, the 1898 Coward building was purchased. It took six months for the renovation of the historic landmark.
The Closing Place now has a staff of 23 and is growing.
Joining the ribbon-cutting were Cherokee County NC Chamber of Commerce directors, ambassadors, Mayor Bill Hughes, and Closing Place staff. Angie Ledford cut the ribbon as Sherry Snyder peeked over the mayor’s shoulder.
