Calling All Brokers! Posted by Dick

Earlier this week, 2008 First Vice President Vicki Cox Golder and I spent some time in Parsippany, N.J., with some of our friends at Realogy Franchise Group. It was a great meeting, and it reminded me just how strong we all are when we work “All Together.”

So many of our large brokers are making incredible contributions to this organization. Judy Reeves, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of NRT, LLC was on NAR’s Executive Committee last year, and Alex Perriello, CEO and President of Realogy, has been a great liaison to the large brokers, and made excellent contributions to the Strategic Planning Committee last year. They are just two examples. So many other brokers – large and small – are working hard to get more REALTORS® engaged in this organization – from political advocacy to education and business tools.

Their leadership is a call to action for every single member of this organization. No matter what firm you work for, or where you work across the country, I challenge you to answer the call and join NAR’s team. Contact your local association or your brokerage, or leave a comment on this blog! Everyone has a role to play in our current and future success. – Dick Gaylord, 2008 NAR President

The meetings in DC were great. What was the name of the 97-year old lady who gave the talk at the 59-1/2 minute presentation in Washington DC? Does anyone know how I can get a copy soon? I would like to show it for the CAR membership committee in Sacramento on 6/5/08.
Could you send it to CarmenP@car.org
Thank you.
