The Fresno Association of Realtors recently installed its new leadership team for the year.

Don Scordino with Realty Concepts is the incoming president, taking that title during an installation event Jan. 10 in Fresno that included more than 400 members, association affiliates, friends, family and elected officials.

“I have a lot of people to thank, and that’s all of you, because that’s what our association is,” said Scordino during his installation speech. “We join together, just like our business is modeled after; two competing companies coming together on one transaction to make families happy and reach their goals. That’s the ‘Spirit of Cooperation’ we are celebrating here tonight.”

As part of the annual ceremony, the association awarded Brandon Uribe as its 2019 Realtor of the Year, and Kevin Lisitsin as its 2019 Affiliate of the Year. Member Ken Neufeld was also honored for becoming the newest member of FAR’s Hall of Fame.

Local elected officials in attendance were Fresno County Supervisors Sal Quintero and Steve Brandau and Fresno City Councilmembers Garry Bredefeld and Mike Karbassi. The elected officials gathered to commemorate the retirement of Mary Van Ness and declared Jan. 10 as Mary Van Ness Day in the City of Fresno after her 36 years of service and dedication to the association. Mary’s successor is Gerard Lozano, who is now serving as FAR’s executive vice president.
