A commercial associate and top producer with the Santa Barbara office of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties, Stapelmann was praised for her in-depth market knowledge, negotiating skills and expertise.
“Reyne earned this prestigious award for her continuous leadership and participation in the issues requiring the Realtor voice, and her consistent caring and support of the Realtor cause,” said Kyle Kemp, Santa Barbara County District Manager for Berkshire Hathaway.
“She meets regularly with elected officials and represents the rights of property owners as well as Realtor issues. She was the 2015 president of the association and serves as 2018 regional chair for Region 11 in the California Association of Realtors. We are extremely grateful to have such a dedicated, caring professional supporting agents and clients in our Santa Barbara County branch offices in Santa Barbara, Montecito and Santa Ynez Valley,” Kemp added.
