Carol Vitale, Rob Shaffer and Jim Kaschalk, brokers and owners of RE/MAX First, were named Multi-Office Broker/Owners of the Year at the RE/MAX R4 Convention in Las Vegas. The annual event was held earlier this month at the Mandalay Bay Events Center and was attended by more than 6,000 RE/MAX agents from 64 countries.
RE/MAX First was selected for this prestigious award based on their recent office growth and expansion, agent productivity, community involvement and participation in RE/MAX events and programs. The team recently opened a new office in Chesterfield and also acquired an office in St. Clair Shores earlier this year. In addition, RE/MAX First has received recognition throughout southeast Michigan as a top supporter of the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH), the official charity of RE/MAX.
"We are extremely proud of The RE/MAX First owners," said Jeanette Schneider, senior vice president, RE/MAX of Southeastern Michigan. "I have worked with these broker/owners closely over the years and know first-hand how hard they have worked to provide a superior environment for their agents and an excellent experience for their clients. It is a pleasure to see them achieve this great honor."
