Join the GHAR YPN as we check out our neighbor- the first ever food hall in CT - the Parkville Market! There's a ton of outdoor space, great food and beverages. Live music starts at 6pm. We will have a table saved outside so let's get social-ly distant! Everyone welcome!

Make an Offer! Online Auction - NEW ITEMS ADDED!
Overnight stay, cigars, lottery tickets, and more!
The Government Affairs Committee of GHAR has organized an Advocacy Auction to support our industry, protect homeownership and property rights. It takes money to fight for things like flood insurance protection, unemployment benefits and loan programs for REALTORS®. The Advocacy Fund promotes the REALTOR® positions to the public. Your investment helps us influence the decision-makers at the local, state and federal level! Check back often - auction ends 10/19!
