What a wild year! From politics to real estate, 2016 has not been boring!
The brokerage (a digital, mobile and paperless brokerage firm) enjoyed tremendous growth seeing not only sales volume increase, but added staff, agents and upped transactions processed.
We also awarded several awards at our annual Christmas party that we are elated to spotlight. Find out who the 2016 ‘Salesperson of the Year’ is and others that #ExceededExpectations and are true realty ninjas!

The ‘Salesperson of the Year’ award was presented to Berkley Thompson. Berkley sold more real estate than any other agent in the brokerage and was ranked in the top 35 of agents in sales throughout the entire Texas Panhandle per the AAOR. We have enjoyed having both Berkley and her husband, Brock Thompson, as licensed agents with the brokerage since January 2015.
The next award presented was the ‘Top New Agent’ award. This is Triangle Realty’s first year to present this award which was presented to Tiffany Confer. Tiffany joined Triangle Realty in September 2016 and has been actively ‘Exceeding Expectations’ ever since.
To continue in ‘Exceeding Expectations’, this year Triangle Realty had a record number of agents’ cap out. The ‘Capped Out’ award was presented to Randie Baumann, Cindy Sherrod, Craig Cooper, Brock Thompson, Berkley Thompson, and Lori Wilhite.
This year’s ‘Shining Star’ winners are agents Lyndell McDaniel and Jordan Schulte. The two are true “go-getters” and are passionate about ‘Exceeding Expectations’ with everyone they work with!
