IREM Industry Recovery Forecast Event
On January 28th we hosted, along with Chapters 8 & 92, a virtual Economic Recovery Forecast Webinar. The economic forecast was presented by Lawrence Yun of the National Association of Realtors. The panel of industry experts included Noelle Sharbaugh of Greystar, Bobby Rassuli of First Washington, John Sikaitis of Avison Young and was moderated by IREM International President Chip Watts, CPM.
The informative and engaging discussion explored the impact of the pandemic on all local markets, clips of which can be viewed in this short highlight video . Although the annual trade show could not be held in person this year, we were thankful for the following sponsors for adding a fun door prize segment to the event.
