D CEO magazine has announced the finalists for its 2018 Commercial Real Estate Awards program, which honors outstanding projects, deals, and industry players. Last year was an outstanding one for real estate activity in DFW—and the number and caliber of nominations submitted to the publication reflected that.
The competition was especially fierce but, in the end, 52 finalists were selected for recognition in 16 categories. Winners will be revealed at a March 28 awards gala and featured in the April issue of D CEO. To RSVP or buy a company table, please click here. This event sells out quickly, so register today to ensure a spot.
Here’s a list (alphabetically, by last name) of those who will be recognized in this year’s program. Be watching D CEO Real Estate for profiles of the winners after our awards celebration next month. (Click here to see a photo gallery from last year’s Commercial Real Estate Awards program.)
