Colliers names 2023 award winners in the Colliers New Hampshire and Maine offices

Portsmouth, NH Colliers has named its 2023 award winners in the Colliers New Hampshire and Maine offices.

The Colliers Portsmouth office swept the awards ceremony this year! David Choate earned the 2023 Top Producer Award, which he has earned six times in the last decade. Choate and Abby Bachman won the Deal of the Year Award for the sale of Mill Plaza in Durham, NH, for $8.8 million. 

Bachman also earned the Most Improved Award for 2023, as she more than doubled her transactional value from 2022 to 2023.

Lastly, Bachman won the Darlington DeStefano Inspiration Award which is given, as a tribute to two of our late coworkers, to someone who conducted themselves in their business and/or personal life in an inspirational way over the last year. For Bachman, it was her volunteer work at Soul Models as a member of its board of directors and her efforts towards its annual fundraiser. She is a member of the 100 Women Who Care organization. 

Bachman also helped organize the CelebrateHer Luncheon, hosted by the Women’s Business League and The Chamber Collaborative of Greater Portsmouth, which honored women in business in several industries. Additionally, she serves as an alternate member to the Town of Newmarket’s Planning Board.

“David had another spectacular year in 2023. He continually demonstrates how to attain excellence. It was exciting to see Abby excel as she paced Colliers in business growth while significantly giving back to the community," said Bob Rohrer, managing director | New Hampshire, Colliers.

The Manchester, New Hampshire, and Portland, Maine, offices look forward to challenging them in 2024.
