LEGAL CORNER: NYC Passes the FARE Act and Restricts the Payment of Commissions by Tenants
The real estate industry has expressed concerns regarding the potential repercussions of the FARE Act.
Houlihan Lawrence recently announced that more than 45 of its agents have been ranked as part of REAL Trends and Tom Ferry’s America’s Best Real Estate Agents, placing them among the most successful sales associates in the industry.
The nationwide list ranks more than 14,000 real estate sales associates state-by-state. To be included, agents must have closed at least 50 transactions or $20 million in closed sales volume in 2019. Teams must have closed 75 transaction sides or $30 million in closed sales volume in 2019. New in 2020, America’s Best breaks teams into the following three categories by size: 1. Team – Small (2-5 licensed members) by volume or transactions; 2. Team – Medium (6-10 licensed members) by volume or transactions and 3. Team – Large (11+ licensed members) by volume or transactions. All production numbers are independently verified by a third-party to ensure accuracy and report integrity.
“Our agents work incredibly hard for their clients. We’re always so proud to see them receive the national recognition they deserve,” commented Liz Nunan, President and CEO of Houlihan Lawrence.
Below is a list of the agents recognized, organized by state and brokerage.
