Last Thursday, December 8, Residential Properties Ltd held their annual Relocation Awards Banquet at the Radisson Hotel in Warwick. The event was created to recognize RPL relocation trained sales associates for their professionalism and dedication to their customers -- individuals that are relocating in or out of the state. Elizabeth Messier, Vice President of Corporate and Relocation Services, says, "Relocating to a new location can be a highly stressful event for individuals and families and our agents go the extra mile for our clients – consistently exceeding the expectations of our transferees." While months of planning go into the banquet, the event is designed to be fun – with lots of surprises for the agents. This year's theme was The Magic of You and began with a performance from magician Lon Cerel. To thank our agents for a job well done, there were several raffle prizes in addition to the awards ceremony. Below you'll find the complete list of the award winners and raffle prizes. Thank you to all of our agents! Raffle Items
