The Laughlin Tanner Group is pleased to congratulate Kathy Forrester, chief marketing officer of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, on being named one of HousingWire’s 2026 Marketing Leaders.
This national recognition honors marketing professionals who are driving growth, strengthening brands and shaping the future of the housing industry. HousingWire selected 70 leaders from across the country whose innovation, leadership and measurable business impact are helping their organizations stand out in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
Kathy’s leadership has played an important role in advancing the Premier Sotheby’s International Realty brand, championing innovation and supporting the success of advisors and clients in Sarasota’s luxury real estate market.
