THE ST. REGIS BAL HARBOUR RESORT & RESIDENCES HOSTS BROWARD MASTER BROKERS FORUM ADVISORY BOARD

MIAMI, FL -- St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort & Residences, Bal Harbour, a partnership between The Related Group and Starwood Hotels & Resorts, recently hosted an advisory board meeting of the Broward Master Brokers Forum (MBF). The MBF is an organization comprised of South Florida’s elite real estate agents.

St. Regis hosted the meeting at Carpaccio in the Bal Harbour Shops, where Master Brokers were treated to personal presentations from Leeor Bar Haim and other sales executives from the project.

“We hosted the Miami chapter of the Master Brokers Forum last year, and the response was so positive that we felt compelled to invite the Broward chapter leadership to come and learn about us as well,” said Alicia Cervera Lamadrid, president of Related Cervera Realty Services. “We know that these top producers retain the kind of clients who would be interested in the St. Regis, and look forward to doing business with them in the future.”

“The MBF is very much a regional organization, and we have a strong record of networking and exchanging business across all three counties,” said Carolyn Block Ellert, chair of the Broward MBF. “We were thrilled and grateful to have our Broward chapter hosted by a Miami-Dade property, especially one as extraordinary as the St. Regis.”
