Justin Bailey Selected as a RISMedia 2023 Real Estate Newsmaker



Justin Bailey, Realty Executives CEO, has been selected as a RISMedia 2023 Real Estate Newsmaker—a dynamic group of key influencers across the nation making headlines as a result of their newsworthy contributions to the real estate industry, and their efforts to positively affect the consumers and communities they serve. Bailey joins this exclusive group of industry leaders, and represents not only Realty Executives, but also Knoxville. Bailey is the only real estate leader from Knoxville named on the list. "I remember thumbing through the RisMedia magazines in my mom’s real estate office when I was a little kid and thinking how cool it was to see industry giants from around the world. To many years later be found among these faces of men and women I have so much admiration for is extremely humbling. I am proud to represent Knoxville and the state of Tennessee as a Newsmaker,” said Bailey.
