Bloomington-based Forte Real Estate Partners garners its second Best Places to Work honor this year.

We celebrate each other’s successes and share in our challenges. We are passionate about creative thinking, transparent actions, [and] doing the right thing.”

For more about why Forte is a BPTW, we asked Principal Jim Jetland:
