RISMEDIA, July 6, 2011–Agents from CENTURY 21 Award recently attended Market Connect 2011, held annually by the franchise to provide its members the chance to learn about relevant real estate industry trends, hear from special guest speakers, and showcase company pride. The 2011 celebration was exceptionally jubilant as CENTURY 21 Award had recently been named the #1 CENTURY 21 Franchise Worldwide for 2010.
“Market Connect 2011 is a celebration of our agents and can be summed up in one word: Pride!” said David Romero, president and CEO of CENTURY 21 Award. “Pride in who we are and what we stand for. Pride in everything we’ve accomplished. Pride in our brand and pride about our future… it looks extremely bright!”
This year’s event was held at SeaWorld San Diego and Rancho Las Lomas in Orange County.
