Carrington Real Estate Services’ success in building our teams and market share is due not only to our ability to recruit talent, but also to our commitment to develop talent within the company and help our real estate professionals reach their career goals. Lisa is a prime example of this, and we are very pleased she will lead the Las Vegas market.”
