The Hudson Gateway Association of REALTORS® (HGAR) has announced that it has inaugurated its 2023 president, Tony L. D’Anzica of Dynamax Realty NYC Inc. in Manhattan. The inauguration was held at Marina Del Rey in the Bronx.
D’Anzica began his career in 1997 at the New York City real estate law firm Borah, Goldstein, Altschuler, Nahins & Goidel. In 2006, he became a licensed real estate broker and joined the former Manhattan Association of REALTORS® (MANAR). In 2010, D’Anzica became a MANAR Director and six years later, he was elected President of MANAR. That same year, in 2016, he successfully spearheaded the merger of MANAR with the HGAR. With the merger complete, he joined the Board of HGAR in 2017 as the Regional Director for Manhattan, a release stated.
Since then, D’Anzica has served on multiple HGAR committees, including as co-chair of HGAR’s Global Business Council. D’Anzica was responsible for expanding the annual Global Real Estate Summit from a collaboration between two local REALTOR ® Associations to an international event partnering with 11 REALTOR® associations, including NAR and the Canadian Real Estate Association.
