PATRICK GINN
Local Realtor named “Top Real Estate Professional”
Southwest Washington Hasson Company Realtor Patrick Ginn was recently named one of “The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals” by The Wall Street Journal and REAL Trends.
Members of this annual list are ranked in the top one-half of one percent of more than 963,000 Realtors nationwide. Kathy Hall, a Portland-based Hasson Company Realtor, also made the list.
“Becoming a member of such an elite group as The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals is an incredible accomplishment in any market, but what Patrick Ginn and Kathy Hall did during these challenging times is impressive on so many levels,” said Marti Gallardo, vice president of classified advertising for The Wall Street Journal. “Their efforts topped 99.99 percent of the more than 963,000 Realtors nationwide.”
Ginn’s real estate team was also named as a finalist in the Vancouver Business Journal’s 2011 Business Growth Awards for the category of “Fastest Growing Business, 1-5 Years.”
