Nest Realty Group On A Tear

Our friends and clients at Nest Realty Group have been on a tear as of late.

In addition to some new digs, last week Inman News announced them as finalists for the 2009 Innovator Awards.

From the official press release – the award honors:

“…companies that use
technology and innovation to enhance the real estate transaction
process and improve the overall experience for consumers and real
estate professionals…”

In case you don’t know, Inman News is pretty huge in the real estate biz. And the award winners of past years – and finalists for this year – run the gamut of big real estate brands like Coldwell Banker and Better Homes and Gardens to Web 2.0 darlings Zillow, Redfin, and Frontdoor.com.

Barely 6 months out of the gate, it’s great to see their hard work pay off with this type of recognition.

Here’s their competition in the “Most innovative brokerage or franchise” category:

• @properties
• Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate
• Coldwell Banker
• John L. Scott
• Nest Realty Group
• Redfin

Winners will be announced at the Real Estate Connect conference in San Francisco. The conference runs from Aug. 5-7, 2009

So congrats to Nest Realty Group team again – here’s to all the hard work, thinking and new standards that went into the formation and launch of a successful new real estate brokerage in the midst of the biggest downturn ever.

P.S. While we’re eagerly awaiting new pictures and updates on their new office space, check out this great idea for wall art – it’s their “Wordle” blown up in giant size.
