Gina Roseberry Awarded Midwestern Ohio Association of REALTORS® Lifetime Achievement Award
Gina Roseberry of Henderson Land Investment Company, has been awarded as this year’s Mary Pollock Lifetime Achievement Award recipient by the Midwestern Ohio Association of REALTORS®. This award is presented to a REALTOR® member who represents the outstanding attributes of the REALTOR® profession over the course of their career. The award recognizes REALTORS® who have made a real commitment to the real estate industry and who have been a licensed real estate agent for at least 20 years.
Gina’s real estate career spans 27 years. That is 27 years of setting and reaching goals and accomplishments, and building a wonderful career. In the beginning, like most new Realtors, she learned how to work hard through difficult markets, but has persevered and come out stronger, with wisdom that she now uses to help guide others as an office manager at Henderson Land Investment Company.
There are many adjectives that Gina’s peers would use to describe her. Loyal, funny, fair, thoughtful and kind. These character traits have allowed her to succeed in many facets of life and to be steady and sure in her accomplished real estate career.
Gina has faithfully volunteered her time and expertise back the industry by serving for many years on the WRIST, Inc. MLS Board of Directors, and also serving on several Midwestern Ohio Association of REALTORS® committees throughout her career where she has provided much humor, wisdom and guidance while working with her peers to give back to the industry.
She also gives back to her community, supporting her local county fair and other community programs and events.
You would be hard pressed to find a more hard-working, kind, professional person in ANY industry…the Midwestern Ohio Association of REALTORS® is grateful she answered a “help-wanted” ad for a real estate office manager over 25 years ago and has chosen to share her dedication, humor and professionalism in our industry ever since.
From humble beginnings of helping her future broker hand paint real estate signs in her backyard during college, to establishing herself as an exemplary REALTOR® all while raising a wonderful family, and lots and lots of cows; Gina is a wonderful example of an excellent real estate agent…and human being.
Midwestern Ohio REALTORS would like to congratulate Gina Roseberry on receiving this year’s Mary Pollock Lifetime Achievement Award.
