Jo, This sounds like it will help many professionals---and looks like they'll be in many places as well. I'm sure they'll get good attendance, everyone is looking for ways to help their businesses.

Hey Jo,

Sounds like good info for Canada's real estate community. Our nat'l event is coming up in FL in a few weeks, I plan on being there.

BTW, right now I'm on vacation in Mexico and I've met so many wonderful Canadians here. They're primarily from Vancouver. Actually I think we've met more Canadians here than American. Absolutely delightful people, with a great sense of humor.

Jo-Anne, I look forward to reading more from you as the conferences are held about your Ontario real estate market. I find it fascinating to hear about what is going on in the other areas of our world in the housing market.

Hi Jo,
These conferences are a wonderful opportunity for education and network--both oh so important in our industry.

hi Carole,

I agree, the conference looks very interesting and will help many to do a better job for their clients and for their own businesses.

hey Lynda!

I'm glad to hear you're on vacation in Mexico and enjoying it.....thanks so much for your kind words about Canadians; you're a sweetheart!

I hope you have a good time at your conference in Florida.

hi Kris,

There's so much happening worldwide in the real estate market....I enjoy learning about what's going on worldwide too. Somehow we're all in this together....

thanks for stopping by!

hi Cynthia,

I enjoy going to conferences very much and always meet tons of very nice people.....I'm hoping to make it to one of the CMHC ones too.

thanks for dropping by,

Jo, thanks ... I am actually checking up on this, as I read your blog. :)
Thanks for the information ... I hope to make it there.

Jo - We might have an opportunity to meet some of our fellow bloggers there

This is certainly a worth while cause.

Sincerely

Tom Braatz

hi Sylvie!

thanks for stopping by...perhaps I'll see you at the conference! If not, then I hope we can get together some other time within the coming months.

hi Kathy,

I think it would be great if we organized a get-together for all of the southern Ontario AR bloggers sometime within the coming months...maybe before Christmas or early in the new year. What do you think?

hey Tom!

Thanks for visiting this post...conferences where knowledge is imparted are certainly worthwhile and help not only ourselves, but our clients as well. We can never have too much knowledge in this business....

Great post Jo-anne-Networking in person is key in our business - sounds like a great event and so convenient for professionals to attend as it travels to several areas around Canada all in one season!

Sincerely,

Grace

hi Grace!

Networking is certainly paramount in our business and helps us to serve our clients better too when it comes time to refer them to agents in areas that are outside of our service area.

thanks for visiting!

Jo - it would be a challenge to find ones active enough to be interested. There is a definite lack of interest by Canadians to stay involved here in the rain. Barrie did a meme type of challenge to Canadian Bloggers a way back and it stopped dead in its tracks.

Kathy,

true....although there are about 4 or 5 of us in the GTA or close enough who are fairly active. I remember the meme type challenge that Barrie did....I'm guilty of not continuing with it (I was so busy at the time and then completely forgot about it). I still haven't written the two 'friendship ball' posts that were passed my way approximately a week or more ago. I'm going to try and get to them sometime this weekend.

anyhow, perhaps you and Sylvie and Marg and Hillary and I could get together? Barrie would be welcome too, of course. ((-:

This looks like a great opportunity for real esate professionals throughout Canada to get a good feel for what is happening in the marketplace. You will have to keep us posted on what you learn! It should be very interesting. An AR get-together looks like a good idea as well.

hi Joan,

Thanks for dropping by and visiting this post! Conferences are always a great way to network and get to know other agents in our area as well as keeping up with the constantly changing real estate scene.
