CONGRATULATIONS to the Douglas Elliman agents who cycled their way to a $200,000 pay day for God’s Love We Deliver.
MAX DOBENS
Max Dobens, Douglas Elliman’s senior regional executive manager of sales for Brooklyn, led a team of 61 agents from around the country to cycled from Highlands, New jersey to REiNVENT, Douglas Elliman’s annual national sales and networking conference, in Atlantic City. The 2016 Ride to REiNVENT brought together agents from Connecticut, Westchester, Aspen, LA, Florida, Long Island and New York City. Together, and with Elliman’s support, the participants raised $200,000 for charity that provides nutritious meals to people who are too sick to shop or cook for themselves.
