Century 21 said the winners are not ranked in any particular order. But in an email to Inman, a brokerage spokesperson highlighted several agents who “exemplify the qualities of this year’s group of winners.”
The first agent is Noah McBride, broker owner of Century 21 Magnolia in Augusta, Georgia. McBride, 25, began her real estate career in 2020 at Century 21 Magnolia under former owner Larry Miller. When Mr. Miller retires in 2023, Mr. McBride takes over the reins of Century 21 Magnolia and has since grown the brokerage’s agent count from 18 to 65. Outside of real estate, Mr. McBride volunteers as a youth baseball coach.
“I am honored to be named to 30 Under 30 for a brand that means so much to me,” McBride said in a prepared statement. “I hope this inspires the next person to do even greater things.”
The second agent was Jonathan Lopez, a Chicagoland agent who began his real estate career after purchasing his first property at age 22. Lopez, now 30, has been with Century 21 Circle for three years and has completed 300 transactions. In addition to sales, Lopez founded a rental investment and management group and hosts educational seminars to help young Hispanics enter real estate investing. Lopez is also a member of the Lake County Board of Directors of the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals, the Stone Park Village Zoning Board, and the Iscari Youth Ministry.
“I am honored to be selected as a CENTURY 21 30 Under 30,” Lopez said in a written statement. “This recognition motivates us to continue to empower our communities and build generational wealth through education about investment opportunities, while providing exceptional service to our clients.”
The third agent is Caitlin Grisier, 30, of Century 21 Platinum Properties. Mr. Grisier joined Century 21 in 2020 and is a recipient of the Franchisor’s Master’s Ruby Award and the Quality Service Pinnacle Producer Award.
Outside of real estate, Grisier has started several networking and non-profit groups in Clarksville, Tennessee. These include Coffee & Connections and Empower Her. Empower Her provides scholarships to women and girls pursuing college degrees or professional training. She also serves on the boards of SOS (Spreading Our Support) and Handbags for Hope, two Clarksville groups that raise money for charities and women’s homes.
“Winning this award is a great honor to the brokers who have guided and believed in me (and who have fielded millions of calls, including those in the middle of the night), my clients who have trusted me every day, and my family for their support and encouragement. is a testament to my greatest support system (we work late nights and weekends when our clients need us),” Grisier said in a prepared statement. “I couldn’t do what I do without all of them.”
“This year has been a tough year for most real estate agents (that I know), including myself. My volume this year has not been what I wanted, and I’m sure others are feeling it too. “I was very hard on myself because I knew that,” she added.
“When I received this email, it was a gentle reminder that it’s not the quantity that matters most. I’ve been able to impact the lives of so many people in the real estate industry over the years. This year is no exception. Also, this year, the children’s book return area will be closed. We’ve had more time to be more involved in the community, such as setting up offices at the Linda Darby Foundation.So some years are better than others quantitatively, but what we’re doing is numbers. Thank you for reminding me that it is so much more than that.”
