Pacific Northwest-based real estate company, John L. Scott Real Estate, was awarded with the prestigious Inman Innovator Award for “Most Innovative Real Estate Company” in the nation, at a national technology conference last week in San Francisco.
The highly coveted Inman Innovator Award is considered the real estate industry’s highest honor in real estate technology.
This is the seventh year the award has been given, honoring those companies and individuals who have driven innovation in the real estate industry.
John L. Scott Real Estate was selected because of the role the company, and its leader J. Lennox Scott, has played over the years as a pioneer and driver of real estate innovation.
John L. Scott was the first real estate company in the Pacific Northwest to post photos of their entire inventory of homes on its Web site www.johnlscott.com back in 1995 – and it was one of the first companies to do so in the nation.
Chairman and CEO, J. Lennox Scott, who himself has been recognized for being one of the most influential people in the nation in real estate, is honored to receive this coveted award, “The Inman Innovator Award is the highest honor a real estate company can receive for its Web site,” said Scott, “It’s truly a compliment to the incredible team we have here at John L. Scott.”
