2022 HALLMARK Awards

TOP CENTRAL FLORIDA CRE PRODUCERS AND LEADERS RECOGNIZED AT HALLMARK AWARDS

CFCAR and the Central Florida Commercial Real Estate Association bestowed the Wilbur Strickland Lifetime Achievement Award to James M. Seneff, Jr. last week during their annual HALLMARK Awards.

Mr. Seneff founded CNL Financial Group in 1973 and has guided the company over the past 49 years.

The HALLMARK Awards, held May 13 at the Orlando Marriott, Lake Mary, recognized top producers and excellence in the commercial real estate field for 2021 at their annual event. CFCAR, short of Central Florida Commercial Association of REALTORS, is a 10-county overlay board that servers CRE REALTORS in the Central Florida Region.

Kent Cooper, a CFCAR past president, was awarded Deal of the Year for his dedication to helping  a Cocoa heavy construction company reach their full evaluation in 2021. That decision paid off for both, earning the client an extra $3.6 million on the sale and Cooper the largest deal of his career.
