2023 Ones to Watch Rising Stars: Audley Clarke, TrueRate

Audley Clarke 
Senior Associate
TrueRate

Number of years at firm: 2

One thing on my bucket list: Buy my mom a house and let her retire early.

When I am not working, I am: Networking, researching, and studying.

What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? Last year marked TrueRate’s first full year of operation and I’m undoubtedly proud that our original team of three people sold just under $100 million of commercial real estate in that time frame and the foundation that has been built among our team to ensure long-term success for the new team members to come. Over the coming years, we’ll be continuing to expand in size with the goal of becoming a billion-dollar sales volume team, consistently utilizing cutting-edge and data-driven technology to differentiate our processes, and evolving our approach to suit every client and their unique needs. 

What makes this nominee a RISING STAR? 
“From his first day with TrueRate, Audley has displayed the hunger and drive necessary to become an elite broker in this business. His keen attention to detail, desire to learn, and strong determination sets him apart from other players in the space. Audley will undoubtedly have a lot of success for many years to come.” - Samuel Finkler, Senior VP at TrueRate
