ActiveRain Meetup in Ellicott City, MD
The weather was perfect yesterday for 19 real estate professionals to meet up at Bare Bones Grill and Brewery in Ellicott City yesterday. Some of us had known each other for years and done deals together, for others it was the first time to put a name to a face we'd only seen on our computers here in ActiveRain.
I had known Brent Kluge, the 203K Loan Expert, for some time because we had done some transactions together, we've talked on the phone but we had never met in person.
Margaret Rome and Martha Brown were the perfect hostesses and made sure we all had name tags so we'd know who each other were.
Bare Bones Grill and Brewery was a great location, we had our own room and the location was easy to get to and the menu had something for everyone, even though many at our table had the same thing!! Great minds think alike!!
ActiveRain is a perfect platform for us to come together and learn from one another. As Realtors, Loan Officers, Title People and other professions involved in the real estate industry we don't often get the opportunity to interact with each other outside of the deal. But Meetups are a great way to add the Water Cooler to our every day work life and build and solidify those relationships with folks we might not ever meet in person.
At the end of the day, there were a few die hard folks that always hang out until the end, talking, laughing, sharing stories and having a great time.
