You Missed A Great Time At The NAR Chicago Meet Up!

By
Real Estate Agent with Lisa Von Domek Team TX License #0552989

Fellow Rainers - our 2nd Annual Meet Up at the NAR Conference in Chicago, IL was tonight - and it was awesome!  We all met at the Chi Bar at the Sheraton Grand Chicago on Friday, November 3rd from 5:30pm to 7:00pm...but we visited well past the 7:00pm time!  Even with the busy NAR and CRS meeting schedules, we had a fabulous turnout as you can see by the group photo below. 

 From left to right your fellow Rainers:  Larry Johnston, Evelyn Johnston, Alan May, Noah Seidenberg, Wayne Martin, Lisa Von Domek, Debbie Reynolds, Margaret Goss and Jeff Dowler

 

Additional photos (and more will be posted by others in their meet up write ups)

 

 

Great conversation...

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Some adult refreshments...     

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Swapping stories...

 

 

 

 

 

And there were hugs all around...

You will note that this meet up is called the CRS/NAR Conference...I added the CRS Conference as it begins just before the NAR Conference and here is the initial information provided by our CRS site:

 

Join us in Chicago, IL in November 2017 to network, get the latest industry news and product information, and be a part of the committee meetings for the Council of Residential Specialists. The CRS Annual Business Meetings are held in conjunction with the NAR Conference & Expo so CRS members active on NAR committees or with state lobbying initiatives can participate in both meetings and take advantage of the NAR trade exposition and other programs.

 

 

Here's the fabulous group of Rainers from our Orlando, FL NAR Meet up last November:

So glad you all had such a great time, Lisa Von Domek ... what a great turn-out!  Was so hoping that my closing time would make it possible for me to join you, but ... unfortunately it did not.  Looking forward to upcoming meetings in the future ...

Hello Paul S. Henderson, CRS, REALTOR®, the only way we could have had more fun is if more Rainers like you had been able to join us!

Lisa, that had to have been fun!  You got a great group together - and we've been hearing a lot about the hard work that NAR is doing on tax reform.

We had such a lovely time Patricia Kennedy and I am already planning our NAR 2018 Meet Up in Boston next November.

Hopefully tax reform will get done...whether it will get done right is what we are all holding our breath(s) over!
