Inman is known for covering real estate's key leaders, newsmakers and market movers. Today Inman unveiled the debut class of Power Players award recipients -- a list of the most powerful people in the residential real estate industry.
TALLAHASSEE, Tenn., Jan.12, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Inman, the leading news source for real estate agents, brokers, executives and technology leaders, today unveiled its inaugural Power Players awards, a highly anticipated index of the most influential figures working across the residential housing industry.
Clocking in at 121 trailblazers from residential real estate, mortgage, finance and technology, the 2023 Inman Power Players kick off a year of new and expanded real estate awards at Inman.
"It's appropriate to start the year with the naming of Inman Power Players — the leaders whose ingenuity, strength, conviction and persistence are driving change across the real estate industry," said Emily Paquette, Inman's chief executive officer. "These are the best of the best."
Longtime Inman readers may recall the Inman 100 and Inman Influentials lists of years past. Power Players builds on that foundation, Paquette said, but is even more representative of the real estate industry as a whole.
This inaugural class of Power Player award winners include AJ Barkley of Bank of America, Andy Florance of CoStar Group, Bob Goldberg of National Association of Realtors, Christy Budnick of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services, Jay Farner of Rocket Companies, Melissa McSherry of Anywhere Real Estate, Rich Barton of Zillow, Robert Reffkin of Compass, Ryan Schneider of Anywhere Real Estate, Sarah Friar of Nextdoor, and many more influential members of the real estate community.
The complete list of the 2023 Power Players recipients can be found on the Power Player awards page.
