By Stefanie Hahn At the recent REtechSouth conference in Atlanta I had the chance to see Robert Hahn of 7DS Associates speak on a subject he titled, “A Time for Greatness.” This presentation was geared to association execs and REALTORS® who are leaders within their organizations – a group well represented in the RETSO crowd. Since YPN has given me …
By Brett Caviness I simply couldn’t wait two more years to graduate college before entering my dream career as a REALTOR®, so I didn’t. I went active as a real estate agent in Cedar Falls Iowa in 2009. Since entering the business, I have worked hard to manage my time. With class, work on campus, activities and friends I was …
By Chris Nichols I just got back from the 2011 NAR Issues Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico and wanted to share with the YPN Lounge some of the highlights of this wonderful event. This is, by far, one of my most favorite meetings of the year. It was exciting to see a good number of YPN members in attendance. …
By Kelly Reark We were all standing around complaining about our feet hurting in the shoes we chose, wondering if it was our third or fifth cup of Starbucks that day, when the idea hit me that maybe I should put together a quick list of dos and don’ts for anyone attending one of our marathon REALTOR® conferences throughout the …
By Nobu Hata I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about what to do after YPN. You know, when we’re OPN. Where do we go next? What can we do now? How about professional development and education? Are you digging the “Leadership” thing? Both your local association and NAR offer Leadership Academies where your leadership style is honed, your …
By Drew Burks 2010 Real Estate Connect San Francisco This is one event I have always wanted to attend but never have. Well, this year I made the choice to not only attend the event but to participate with my fellow YPNers during the afternoon session of Agent Reboot. Life is what we make it and we get out of …
By Nobu Hata I am loathed to do this, but I’m going to plug a class. If there’s one class or certification training you take this year, make it NAR’s Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR) training program. I must admit, after hearing about it from the kind folks at REBAC, hearing about my own company’s training program, and learning …
By Rob Reuter, YPN Manager I was recently approached by staff of REALTOR® Magazine and asked if I could start blogging in the YPN Lounge. I remember thinking to myself “cha right, have you seen my to-do list?” Well here I am and for my first blog in the lounge, I get to write about an exciting topic: the word …
By Maura Neill Sure – the economy’s tanked, your market stinks, and money’s tight. I get it. But pull yourself up by your bootstraps and get on down South, ya’ll, for two of the best events you’ll attend all year. If you’re like me, you’re carefully planning where and when to spend not only your money but also your time. …
The Greater Nashville Association of REALTORS® (GNAR) chapter of the Young Professionals Network held its “Academic Advising 101” on Feb. 12 in the Hal Wilson Education Center. This event provided an opportunity for new and young REALTORS® to get a better understanding of REALTOR® education, designations, and how to earn them. GNAR President Lucy Smith and GNAR YPN President Hagan …
