Fairway's Elevate events introduce real estate professionals to cutting-edge strategies that can elevate brands, mindsets, and business in today’s competitive market. 

"Under Haley Parker's leadership, Elevate has grown into a cornerstone of Fairway," said Julie Fry, chief people and engagement officer for Fairway. "This platform has been embraced nationwide, making a meaningful impact in local markets and creating tremendous momentum. It's clear Elevate deserves its place as a standalone program within our organization, and we're thrilled to see it expand — with seven cities already planned for 2026. The energy and impact are undeniable."

Jon Tobias, president of branch production at Fairway, added: "We are thrilled for Haley 一 her passion is unparalleled, and it's been exciting to watch what she has done with Elevate unfold. What she has accomplished has been incredible to watch first-hand.
