For the second year in a row, Richmond real estate broker Charlie Polk beat out brokers from larger markets to capture the companywide 2004 top producer award for Advantis/GVA. The commercial real estate services company employs 175 agents in 14 markets throughout the Southeast, including Atlanta and Washington, D.C.

The top award is based on gross dollar production. Polk’s sales and lease transactions exceeded $88 million, and he brokered more than a million square feet of space. “He has developed a number of key relationships for us including Saxon Mortgage, The Timmons Group, Chevy Chase Land Co., VCU Health System, Charter One Mortgage and Swedish Match,” says Jamie Thomas, senior director of Advantis/GVA’s Rich-mond firm.
Polk has been with the company for more than 16 years.
