Joan Herlong & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty honors top associates
March 8, 2023
Joan Herlong & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty has honored its top Associates for February.
In the Greenville office, the top Associates for listings sold were Caroline Turpin and Jeff Inman, and the top associates for buyer transactions were Britney Bolt and Michael Kingsmore. In the Clemson office, Diane Bostrom was the Associate with the most listings sold.
One of the brokerage’s more decorated Associates, Turpin was the company Rookie of the Year in 2017, Most Valuable Associate in 2019, incoming referral leader in 2020, and in 2022 earned a President’s Circle Award, which is for Associates who did more than $5 million.
Inman joined the Joan Herlong & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty in May 2021 and welcomes the opportunity to show clients the specialness of Greenville and its surrounding areas. He was named to the company’s 2022 President’s Circle Award.
Licensed since 2012, Bolt describes herself as a naturally-curious “lover of relationships.” A Greenville, native, Bolt comes from a real estate background, and meeting new people, learning about them, and learning from them is one of the most rewarding aspects of her work.
Kingsmore spent more than 35 years as a leader in the textile industry winning numerous honors and accolades. A Clemson graduate, he joined the firm in 2022 seeing real estate as a great use of his skills. He loves building relationships with the families he works with as they search for their new home in the Upstate.
Bostrom has been with Joan Herlong & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty since April 2021 and she became a member of the Chairman’s Circle in 2021 and the President’s Circle in 2022. She is committed to her clients—she once drove from Clemson to Charleston and back just to help a client with a closing.
“Every Associate with our company is working hard for our buyers and sellers in the first few months of 2023,” said Joan Herlong, the company’s owner and CEO. “These Associates are a shining example of the dedication you will find when you choose Joan Herlong & Associates Sotheby’s International Realty.”
