Realty Executives International and Realty Executives Associates of Knoxville, Tennessee congratulate agent Trent Rogers on being named a RisMedia 2025 Rookie of the Year! Out of thousands of agents, Trent was selected as the South Regional winner. The winner of this award exemplifies a strong sales record, commitment to the industry, and promising future in real estate.
A self-proclaimed lifelong dabbler in real estate, Rogers officially entered the business after a career in the luxury automotive industry. His background helped him to quickly excel and provided him with a true appreciation and knowledge of customer service, which he can apply to real estate daily.
Rogers describes his Regional Rookie of the Year recognition as a testament to the people he’s been fortunate enough to work alongside.
“That would include my mentor, managing broker, team members, transaction coordinator and certainly the admin staff at my brokerage,” says Rogers. “And my biggest cheerleader, my wife Hayley. There is ZERO chance I could have had a year like 2024 without their support.”
Rogers also attributes his rapid success to his commitment to staying in touch with clients and customers. He values keeping up with clients and providing value to them even after closing.
“There are two mottos that resonate in my head the most,” he says. “One is ‘take care of the people, and the money will take care of itself,’ and the other is, ‘the fortune is in the follow up.’ I’ve seen both of these hold true over and over and over again in my sales career.”
COO of Realty Executives Associates, Pat McGill, stated “Trent is a fantastic agent, and this recognition is fitting for him. He puts his all into his work every day and serves his clients to the best of his ability. In such a short time, he has proven to be a successful and strong Executive. We are grateful that he calls REA home.”
