James Craig, a real estate sales representative with CBRE Limited, has been elected to serve as the Kitchener-Waterloo Association of Realtors’ (KWAR) president.
Craig has been involved in the real estate industry since 2001 when he started in the research department of a local commercial real estate firm, and received his license within one year. He has worked in the Waterloo Region market since then, focusing on multi-residential and investment sales.
In 2013, Craig became a director of KWAR. He has served on and chaired several committees including MLS services, commercial, charity golf tournament and finance. A community champion, Craig is also a board member of the Waterloo Regional Apartment Management Association and a volunteer with minor hockey.
“It is a great honour to be taking on the role of president for an organization that has been supporting Kitchener-Waterloo Realtors since 1937,” says Craig. “Working alongside my fellow board members, I look forward to leading the association as we continue along our path of providing the very best services and technology to our members.”
Joining him as officers of the association are Charlotte Zawada of Re/Max Twin City Realty as past president, Tony Schmidt of Howie Schmidt Realty as first vice president, Brian Santos of Peak Realty as second vice-president and EO Bill Duce. New to the board of directors this year is Nicole Pohl of Re/Max Twin City Realty.
