Pat Riley

Allen Tate Companies

President and CEO Pat Riley has overseen the expansion of Allen Tate Companies from three offices to 70. He led the 2022 acquisition of Beverly-Hanks, REALTORS®, a company with 18 offices, 500 agents, 80 employees, and $2.6 billion in closed sales volume.

Riley received the Charlotte Business Journal’s 2022 Most Admired CEO Lifetime Achievement Award. He serves on the Charlotte Executive Leadership Council and the board of Best NC.

“I chose a profession I have loved,” says Riley. “I’ve never felt like I was selling; rather I was coaching, counseling, and leading my clients and my work team, to help them achieve success. I am grateful to have been a part of most people’s largest investment. I have always aspired to be a servant leader, and I have been blessed to serve and give back to my local communities and improve quality of life.”
