Ralph Morton, editor, Broker News had this to say:
“Preparations are fully underway for what promises to be another terrific awards event this year. We designed the event to celebrate excellence in our industry and, after a pretty tough 2024, this will be the perfect way to celebrate our industry’s achievements. The quality of the entries gets better every year and I can’t wait to see who will walk away as 2025 winners.”
