Kent Island office recognized for its exceptional team
Long & Foster Real Estate’s Kent Island office has been honored by The Shore Update, a popular local publication serving Kent Island and greater Queen Anne’s County. In The Shore Update’s annual Best of awards, its readers recognized Long & Foster as having the friendliest staff in the region. This is the first time that a real estate company has won this award.
The Kent Island office earned the honor by a landslide, standing out among dozens of competing brokerages in the area. The Best of The Shore awards are voted on by the public, making this recognition a direct reflection of community trust and support.
“This award is especially meaningful because it comes from the people we serve,” said Tom Richardson, managing broker of Long & Foster’s Kent Island office. “To be recognized not just alongside other brokerages, but in a contest that includes restaurants, shops, marinas and more, is a true testament to the visibility and value our team brings to the Eastern Shore.”
In addition to the office win, numerous Long & Foster’s agents received individual honors, including Jimmy White and Larry Doyle, who captured two of the most coveted real estate categories—Best Real Estate Team and Best Luxury Realtor, respectively. Their recognition, along with that of their colleagues, underscores the strong relationships Long & Foster agents have built within the community.
