Colliers' Michael Fay Honored With Awards

Colliers International South Florida Chairman – Founding Partner Michael T. Fay has been honored with two prestigious awards from the corporate team of Colliers International. Fay has been named to the Colliers Everest Club; a group of brokers recognized as the top 10% in revenue within the United States.
In addition to the top producer award, Fay, along with his executive assistant Shawna Kemper and fellow Colliers team members Jon Barry and Heather Francis from the Atlanta office, were also honored with the Team Innovation Award. This award honors and recognizes revolutionary, enterprising ideas and actions resulting in an incremental or radical advancement in thinking, processes or outcomes. Fay’s client relationships with banks and special servicers, as well as the creation of exclusive technology for specific clients, earned his team this win.

Blake in the sale of a 238,000-square-foot vacated auto dealership to WalMart, where a new neighborhood market store is planned. In a bank REO transaction, Fay also worked on a team that sold a prime piece of land at 2121 N. University Drive in Pembroke Pines, originally planned for medical office.
