One June 2, 2008- Koki was selected by REALTOR Magazine as one of the thirty most talented, up-and-coming realtors in the U.S. This year's "30 Under 30" honorees outshone their competitors from a pool of 400 applicants. Selection criteria for the annual award include business success, professional leadership, and community involvement.
Adasi's award comes only three years into his real estate career after a year of significant professional achievement and community service. In 2007, Adasi-Efuya logged $6.3 million in sales, selling every house he placed on the market. He also began serving on the YMCA Youth & Family Services Board of Directors and continued his tenure on the Community Service Committee for the Greater Capital Area Association of Realtors where he's served for the past two years. His other volunteer activities include coaching the Junior Varsity basketball team at The Bullis School (fall 2007-summer 2009), volunteering with autistic children at The Forbush School at Oakmont, speaking to at-risk high school students and preparing food at DC Central Kitchen.
Adasi became a Realtor after working in accounting at Bethesda's Seawright Homes (a subsidiary of Clark Construction) and realizing he preferred a more people-oriented job.
"What I love about selling real estate is interacting with my clients. The relationships I've built are phenomenal. It isn't work. I don't think of myself as a salesperson, but as a consultant who is helping my clients make one of the biggest decisions of their lives," Adasi-Efuya said.
Adasi was one of only two African-Americans selected for 2008's "30 Under 30." He was also featured on CNN's The Situation Room in October 2009. Koki was also a guest on NPR radio to give his advice on staging to sell in September 2009. He was just recently featured on HGTV's House Hunters in October 2010.
