Christina Asbury, with Wilmington-based Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage, has been recognized as part of the 2021 APEX Producers Club by the Realtors Land Institute (RLI) as a part of the RLI APEX Production Awards Program, sponsored by The Land Report.

Asbury was recognized by RLI Chief Executive Officer, Aubrie Kobernus and The Land Report co-founder Eric O’Keefe on March 24, during RLI’s 2022 National Land Conference in San Antonio, Texas, according to a news release.

“I’m truly honored to be recognized as a top land professional in the USA. This is simply one of the most important accomplishments of my career. I am grateful to the clients who trusted me and my company for supporting me through a stellar year,” said Asbury upon receiving the award.

Asbury has been Onslow and Pender County’s only Accredited Land Consultant (ALC) since 2007.

"The ALC designation is given to land real estate agents proven to be the most educated, experienced and trustworthy land sales professionals in the industry," according to the release. "Land transactions require the specialized expertise of an agent with education and experience in the land market. Using an ALC gives land investors, buyers, and sellers confidence in their agent as the most qualified expert to help them with their land transaction."

All land professionals recognized as part of the RLI APEX Producers Club are active members of RLI and had at least $5 million of qualifying production volume in closed land sales in 2021.
