“The EXIT Realty of Lubbock office is a monument of class, professionalism and commitment to the real estate industry and the owners lead with passion and purpose in everything they do,” said Craig.  “Russell and Gene have earned our Broker of the Year Award and we couldn’t be more proud of their leadership. They have grown an office culture of caring, sharing and overall concern for everyone’s success and we are so thankful they are part of our brand here at EXIT.”
