Congratulations to Those Who Made Chicago Magazine’s The New Power 30 List
Past President Zeke Morris, EXIT Strategy Realty, Treasurer Sarah Ware, Ware Realty Group, and Dearborn REALTIST® Board President Courtney Jones, Chicago Homes Realty Group, were featured on Chicago Magazine’s The New Power 30 list.
They were honored for their efforts to stop hate speech, which led to NAR’s Code of Ethics changes at the end of last year, making the use of harassing or hate speech toward any of the protected classes a violation of the Code of Ethics. Congratulations on your success!
CAR Named One of Crain’s Chicago Business’s Best Places to Work
Each year, employees of applicable companies are surveyed about their workplace. The survey responses are then compiled, and those companies that meet the set criteria are named finalists for the year.
A happy and healthy staff team is critical to providing you, our members, with the best services possible, and we are proud to be honored on this list. Congratulations to our team for this incredible accomplishment!
