Ben joins exclusive group of industry leaders who have made newsworthy contributions to the real estate industry
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Californer -- Ben Bacal, Founder & Founder of Rila and Revel Real Estate, has been selected as a Futurist on the RISMedia 2024 Real Estate Newsmaker List—a dynamic group of key influencers making headlines as a result of their newsworthy contributions to the real estate industry and their efforts to positively affect the consumers and communities they serve.
A self-described "technology disruptor" and a luxury agent in the Los Angeles market, Ben has founded Revel Real Estate, a dynamic and innovative real estate agency and the AI-powered app Rila—the so-called "Instagram of Real Estate"—demonstrates that disruptor status. The app, which catalogs attributes of a home and connects a user with listings that display those properties—bringing buyers and agents together in a futuristic new way—was a finalist at NAR's 2023 iOi (Innovation, Opportunity, Investment) Summit Pitch Battle.
"We're putting the power back into the hands of agents by equipping them with more technology, administrative support, development tools and more freedom at Revel. The most fulfilling aspect of my career is the opportunity to inspire fellow agents to aim for excellence and emphasize the significance of innovation in today's real estate market, just as much as the art of selling homes," said Ben.
RISMedia, the leader in U.S. real estate news and information services, announced its more than 300, 2024 Real Estate Newsmakers, in both an online directory on RISMedia.com and in the February issue of its flagship publication, Real Estate magazine.

"It's always so inspiring to see the incredible accomplishments of so many real estate professionals around the country and this year's group of 2024 Newsmakers is no exception. From the creativity and innovation being implemented through the shifting and challenging 2023 market, to industry records being broken, to the wonderful charitable work being done across the nation, we continue to be amazed by the ingenuity and success of these real estate professionals, more than 300 of whom we are honoring on our seventh year of publishing Real Estate Newsmakers," said John Featherston, Founder, CEO and Publisher of RISMedia.
RISMedia will honor this year's Real Estate Newsmakers at RISMedia's Newsmakers Reception & Dinner, being held Sept. 5 at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C., in conjunction with our 2024 CEO & Leadership Exchange.
