Trevor Musgrove, Managing Partner at The Agency Turks & Caicos, has been re-elected as the Turks & Caicos Real Estate Association (TCREA) Ambassador for a second consecutive term.
Musgrove was unanimously nominated. On Thursday, October 20th, his peers officially re-elected him to continue as a key representative for the esteemed body at the association’s AGM and Election.
When first elected to the role of Ambassador in 2021, Musgrove shared his interest in bringing more awareness to the association's work, building the organization’s connectivity to the community, and embarking on educational outreach. He was keen on developing initiatives to share the merits of the local real estate industry with the youth of the country – a group he is passionate about connecting with and empowering.
During his first Ambassador term, Musgrove developed and launched the TCREA Mentorship Program and garnered the support and endorsement of the Ministry of Education.
Upon launch, ten mentorship spots were made available to teens throughout the Turks and Caicos Islands, and a committee of local realtors who shared Musgrove’s passion and vision was formed. Since then, the Mentors have hosted in-person sessions teaching the Mentees the industry’s terms and principles, how to research and sell listings, and how to conduct an open house with potential investors and buyers.
“The response from the community has been overwhelming, and I am proud that our association has seen fit to endorse a program of this nature,” said Musgrove. “I cannot thank the Honourable Rachel Taylor and her team at the Ministry of Education enough for their support of the program. They have been present since orientation day and have ensured that our sister island Mentees have a chaperone and transportation to Providenciales for every session. The Minister herself was one of our mock buyers at the recent open house, which was a real treat for the teens.”
Musgrove has openly shared that he is committed to the program's continuation and encourages parents with interested teens to look out for the application period for the second run, which will begin in January 2023.
In his acceptance of the Ambassador role for 2022-2023, Musgrove congratulated the newly-elected TCREA board members, now led by President Charles Missick and Vice President Robert Greenwood. He encouraged his colleagues to continue the spirit of ‘paying forward’ and giving back to the community, citing the biblical principle, “to whom much is given, much is required”.
Still operating in the role of President of the TCHTA, Trevor says his excitement in being of service to two of the most critical industries in the country only grows stronger. He is humbled by the support of his contemporaries and eager to continue making an impact in the country.
“As professionals in this industry, we have been blessed to experience a successful year, and all indications are that this will continue. We are a pool of dedicated professionals and to be a representative for this hardworking group is an honour”, said Musgrove. “As we continue working arduously to grow the economy, we are committed to growing our partnership and engagement, building bonds that will aid in the sustainability of our industry and product.”
