The Real Deal picked up 13 awards from the National Association of Real Estate Editors

The Real Deal‘s editorial team won 13 journalism awards from the National Association of Real Estate Editors this year — a record haul for the publication.

“This was genuine journalism of a very high quality that digs beyond the surface,” the judges noted about TRD‘s gold award for best commercial trade magazine. The accolades were announced Friday in Denver at NAREE’s annual conference.

TRD reporter E.B. Solomont received NAREE’s platinum award for best individual entry – the top prize of the night – for her investigative feature on the title insurance industry. Solomont also took home a silver award for best residential trade magazine story for her attempt to assess the true value of residential brokerages, and a gold award for best team report for her feature with senior national reporter Katherine Clarke on money laundering.

(That piece also received a silver award for best team report and, separately, a Deadline Club award.) He took home another bronze for best commercial trade magazine story for his ranking of the city’s largest residential landlords.

Associate web editor Mark Maurer received gold awards for a feature on Hasidic Brooklyn’s real estate machers and for a profile of controversial young landlord Raphael Toledano.
