A LE T T ER FROM T HE PR E S I D E NT
The summer is behind us and fall is
upon us. I hope all of you took time to
relax with your family and friends over
the summer. “Season” is just around the
corner and our streets will be flooded with
Northerners, Midwesterners, and so
on. Fortunately, the market has been
steadily active all year. This season, we
will be faced with low inventory, but
anticipate many more homes entering the
market as we move forward.
Expo is also coming to Orlando, from
November 4-7. This will be a great
opportunity to educate, innovate and
“Celebrate” with some of the best educational classes, motivational speakers and
latest technology tools. Plan to attend one
of the largest trade shows all year and take
advantage of the fantastic opportunities to
network with Realtors® worldwide. Our
District 5 will have a booth at the
convention, promoting Southwest Florida
to REALTORS® all over the world. Be sure
to stop by!
