Weichert recognized for outstanding achievement at international real estate conference

Weichert, Realtors was recently honored with a Member Achievement Award by the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World (LeadingRE). The award was presented at the LeadingRE annual conference in Las Vegas, which attracted a sell-out crowd of nearly 2,000 top real estate professionals from 17 countries.

“Earning a Member Achievement Award is a true distinction, signifying an exceptional level of real estate expertise and professionalism,” said LeadingRE President/CEO Pam O’Connor. “To be acknowledged among this elite group of market leading firms is a notable accomplishment, and we are delighted to honor Weichert, Realtors for being among the top real estate firms in the world.”

Weichert led the entire LeadingRE network in 2012 for outgoing closed referrals resulting from the most client introductions made to other affiliates throughout the network. This marked the 14th consecutive year the company achieved that accomplishment.

“That we have once again achieved the most outgoing referrals for the entire LeadingRE network speaks volumes about the hard work and dedication of the sales professionals at Weichert,” said Betsy Roche, vice president of relocation for Weichert. “I am proud of what we have accomplished, and of the relationships we have built with other member companies based on our ability to produce results.”

As a member of the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, Weichert, Realtors is part of a network of more than 500 premier, locally branded firms producing $235 billion in annual home sales.
