Inc. magazine recently revealed that Richardson Properties is No. 3097 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment — its independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“It’s truly an honor to be nationally recognized for our growth over the last three years,” said Chris Richardson, President of Richardson Properties. “I’m extremely proud of our team who continue to be recognized for their excellence in the real estate industry. I’d also like to express gratitude to our clients who allow us to serve them and give back to our communities. This recognition is a reflection of our thriving real estate market and economy, and really puts SLO on the map as an increasingly desirable place to live.”
The Inc. 5000 ranking is the latest in a series of recent accolades awarded to Richardson Properties. The brokerage achieved the highest total sales volume in San Luis Obispo County during 2020, surpassing the larger franchises who normally occupy the top spot. The firm was named Best Real Estate Company in San Luis Obispo by the New Times Best of SLO County Readers Poll in May for the fourth year in a row. Several of its realtors were also nationally recognized for excellence in their field – selected for this year’s RealTrends The Thousand List and Christie’s International Real Estate Master Circle in June. And most recently, one of the brokerage’s listings was selected as a finalist in HGTV’s Ultimate House Hunt 2021 in July.
Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria was released by Inc. on August 17.
