Our 5th Anniversary Issue!

Every issue of REE is special to me. But, in this, our April issue every year is always a very special issue for us to do!

There are several reasons why this issue is so special:
1. We get to celebrate another milestone with the magazine
2. We get to catch up with our last 12 cover honorees and find out what the
cover honor meant to them and what their thoughts are on the magazine.
(Centerfold)
3. We get to showcase our amazing “Publisher’s Advisory Board.”
4. We get to report on the HBJ “2007 Top Residential Real Estate Awards”
breakfast which I consider to be “The Academy Awards of Houston Real Estate.”

And, if the above were not enough, this issue we shine the spotlight on all 60 cover honorees of the last five years.

What an incredible honor it has been for me to have interviewed and showcased the 60 most powerful real estate professionals in the Houston market! Actually, there were 59 top producers honored and we celebrated our wonderful HAR Staff on the December 2005 issue.

At this year’s Houston Business Journal’s “Residential Real Estate Awards” breakfast, it was gratifying to see just how many of the HBJ award winners we have profiled over the years. Agents like Ronnie & Cathy Matthews (9/02), Joe Rothchild (1/03), Flo Newman (3/04), David Flory (11/05), David Young (4/06), Bruce & Diane Kink (7/05), Nadeen Stepp (8/05), Steve Hardcastle (5/03), J. Carter Breed (5/04) Ruben & Nancy Villarreal (2/05), Dale Ross (1/04), Larry Williams (12/02), Marion Franke (11/06), Don & Sherry Burns (7/03), Melinda Noel (8/03) etc., etc. have been featured in the last five years.

Check out our blog (www.realestateexecutive.blogspot.com ) for interviews I did with several of the above award winners.

This month’s cover honoree, Eura Miller of Coldwell Banker United-Memorial was my guest at this years breakfast. Eura, a top producer for Coldwell Banker United and a “Rising Star” in Houston real estate has all the attributes to make it to the breakfast next year as one of the award winners. Maybe she will bring ME next year! You will enjoy her story.

Well, it is about time to let you start enjoying this, our 5th Anniversary Issue!

As always, good reading and good sales!

Success to You!
