REEC FACTS

Founded in 2003, the Real Estate Executive Council is a 501 (c) (6) professional trade association composed of minority men and women executing business in the commercial real estate industry.

The commercial real estate industry has a market valuation of approximately $5.0 trillion and employs 100,000 professionals; 36% are women and less than 3% are minorities.
