1stView named Vancouver Island Real Estate Company of the Year

1stView has been recognized as the Real Estate Company of the Year at the 11^th Annual Business Examiner Awards.

“Celebrating Business Excellence on Vancouver Island” the BE Awards were presented Jan. 27 at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre in Nanaimo. Awards were presented in 17 categories.

“I was honoured,” said Clarice Coty, owner of 1stView, of winning the award. Not a traditional real estate company, 1stView helps people find new Vancouver Island real estate including homes, vacation units and investment properties. 1stView is the premier online directory for home buyers and investors looking for new Vancouver Island real estate.

“There are some amazing stories to be told,” said Mark MacDonald, Business Examiner and Business Vancouver Island publisher, “and we are grateful to have the opportunity to highlight as sterling examples of what can be, and is being done in our region.”

In 2010, 1stView grew to see more than 20,000 visits per months, expanded its staff with the addition of a new marketing director, and a sales person for the launch of its new Vancouver Island Real Estate and Construction Directory. 1stView will soon launch a redesigned website, making it even easier to find new residential real estate and homes on Vancouver Island.
