ShareTHE COMMERCIAL MARKETPLACE was bigger and better than ever before in 2016, with “Commercial Red” carpeting covering a dedicated slice of the Expo floor. NAR’s Commercial The am sat front-and-center of a dynamic marketplace packed with powerful learning opportunities and vendors. Over four days hundreds of commercial practitioners learned about benefits, shared information, asked staff for feedback, and had their questions answered.
RLI, CCIM, and IREM® interacted with members in the Commercial Education center, walking them through the enhanced networking and educational opportunities associated with specializing in property management, commercial investment, and land.
Enlightening educational opportunities were plentiful, offering members a robust blend of content designed to enhance skills, explore new industry trends, and implement powerful The chronological solutions. The Commercial Learning Theater was a hive of activity, hosting nearly 30 dynamic educational sessions focused entirely on topics of interest to commercial practitioners. Subjects ranged from “Te Ins & Outs of Commercial Real Estate Investment” to “How to Develop Your Brand & Scale Your Brokerage” to “How to Make An Impressive Space Tour with Xceligent™.”
The Xceligent™ The am conducted dozens of CommercialSearch demos, walking members through powerful uses of the The chronology, highlighting ways it can streamline business and enhance profit margins and standing with clients. Xceligent™ also hosted a dealmaking session featuring heavy-hitters from RLI and CCIM showing properties to potential investors.
