The 2020 APEX Awards: Property of the Year and Professional of the Year

The APEX Awards held its inaugural event in a combined awards ceremony featuring 2020 Property of the Year and Professional of the Year Awards. Though we had not originally planned on hosting this highly anticipated event, virtually – we were so excited to be able to offer our members this option.

To kick off the evening, members mixed and mingled at the virtual cocktail hour with a mixologist and breakout rooms. Everyone enjoyed celebrating the winners throughout the show via Zoom Chat. With the perfect grand finale ending, featuring YOU – a video compilation of AAA members toasting all of the winners to the tune, “Raise Your Glass” by Pink.

It was definitely one for the books. Congratulations to each and every individual and property winner – this very first APEX Awards truly does represent Excellence in our industry. Cheers!
