The Society of Real Estate Professionals (SOREP) is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit dedicated to serving Tampa Bay’s commercial real estate community by hosting insightful events on relevant industry topics, valuable networking opportunities, and our signature “Meeting of the Minds”. SOREP is also committed to supporting higher education in commercial real estate by sponsoring an annual scholarship fund. The fund is offered to eligible full-time undergraduate or graduate level students who are pursuing a career in real estate with an interest in potentially moving to Tampa Bay after graduation. The scholarship is currently available to students attending the University of Florida, Florida State University, the University of South Florida, the University of Tampa, the University of Miami, or the University of Central Florida. Since the scholarship’s inception in 2018, SOREP has awarded $165,000 to 68 students!
