Regency Named Best Nationwide in Tenant Satisfaction for Fourth Time

Regency Properties, a retail commercial real estate company specializing in county seat communities, has won the coveted 2015 National Commercial Real Estate Award for Customer Service Excellence from industry analyst CEL & Associates Inc. With only one award given annually in each of five portfolio-size categories nationwide, the award is a testament to the truly superior customer service Regency delivers to its commercial tenants. Regency is also among an even more elite group of companies that have received the award in both successive and multiple years, having won the top award in 2011, 2013 and 2014.

Since 1998, the Real Estate Award for Customer Service Excellence, also known as the ‘A List’ award, has become the industry-leading benchmark for property performance and tenant satisfaction. Each year, CEL conducts more than 2.5 million tenant surveys to measure performance of commercial properties throughout the country. Survey questions include evaluation of leasing and property management, maintenance services, readiness and responsiveness to solve problems, property condition and lease renewal intention. Survey respondents rated Regency’s services and property staff as “Outstanding” among their class.

“Our ‘A List’ award is reserved for the top performing companies in the country,” said Christopher E. Lee, president and CEO of CEL & Associates. “The 2015 Real Estate Award for Customer Service Excellence shows Regency Properties’ commitment to truly superior service satisfaction. We congratulate Regency Properties on earning this prestigious award for the third year in a row and four out of the last five years.”

“The 2015 award is very meaningful for us because it demonstrates our continued strategic commitment to maintaining an industry-leading level of tenant satisfaction while aggressively growing our portfolio of shopping centers located in county seat communities,” said Kevin Hammett, president and CEO of Regency Properties.
