Premier Multifamily Firm RKW Residential Earns Numerous National and Regional Business Awards for Recent Achievements

CHARLOTTE, NC - RKW Residential, one of the nation’s fastest-growing multifamily management firms, and its team members are racking up industry and business awards from national and regional media outlets. Recent recognitions honor RKW, firm President Marcie Williams and the Marketing team led by Senior Vice President Joya Pavesi.

On Dec. 2, national multifamily publication Multi-Housing News presented RKW with a 2021 Excellence Award in the Marketing Campaign category. RKW earned the prestigious award for its innovative “15 for 15” COVID-19 Video Series, in which RKW provided much-needed thought leadership early in the pandemic through insightful 15-minute conversations with industry leaders.  The collaborative effort brought together two RKW teams, as the video series was conceived and hosted by Senior Vice President of Client Services John Zalkin.

“We are proud to receive this recognition from MHN for our “15 for 15” series, which was truly a team effort,” Pavesi said. “We started the series with the goal to guide apartment owners and residents through this unprecedented challenge in a concise virtual format. It quickly became a vital source of timely information for the multifamily sector and broader real estate industry.”

In Charlotte, RKW and President Marcie Williams were honored by Charlotte Observer and Charlotte Business Journal, respectively.

The Observer named RKW one of its Top Workplaces of 2021. Each year, the publication uses employee surveys to recognize Charlotte-based companies that have strong corporate culture and employee engagement.

Williams earned the Business Journal’s 2021 Most Admired CEOs award. She received the honor for a second straight year, an extremely rare accomplishment. The same publication recognized RKW as one of the 2021 Fast 50, a ranking of the Charlotte region’s 50 fastest-growing private companies based on revenue growth over the past three years. This was also a repeat placement for the organization, which was also recognized on the 2020 list.

“It is exciting and gratifying to see us consistently recognized for our unique corporate culture and growth,” Williams said. “These awards also serve as motivation to continue innovating, leading and serving our community in 2022 and beyond.”

In South Florida, RKW was recognized as the Daily Business Review’s top multifamily property management firm in the publication’s “Best of 2021” feature. This is the fourth consecutive year RKW has achieved “Best of” status.

Founded just six years ago, RKW is one of the multifamily industry’s most compelling entrepreneurial success stories in recent memory.

The company was recognized by Multi-Housing News as the nation’s third-fastest growing multifamily management company in the publication’s 2021 rankings. It also made MHN’s annual “Top Property Managers” list for the third consecutive year.
