CCAR goes GREEN

Well, I could not imaging the presentation going any better. I have uploaded the video of the presentation to YouTube.com. The video is 30 minutes in length so I had to divide the presentation into 3 files. The linkes are:

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdLmeoQ9Dv0



Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mACCXZoT-us


Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlV4qh7IkAc


I'll be sending out an email to each of the attendees thanking them and offering to help them with recycling and perhaps doing the presenation for their local office.

THANK YOU to everyone who helped out!

Bob

PS. Mary issued a TREPAC challenge to TRLP Classes I & II. She'll post more on that later.

Sad news

Hello All,

This is to inform you that I have to drop out of the Texas Realtor Leadership Program. I have had to give this a great deal of thought and it has been a very tough decision. As you all know, I applied to this program when I was employed for Chicago Title. My branch manager thought it would be a great opportunity for me to gain leadership skills and grow my place in this business. Prematurely in my opinion, Chicago Title let me go due to corporate downsizing and I feared the worst, that I would not find another title job and would have to get out of the business altogether, with all the prediction of gloom and doom. Thank God that was not the case!

Since I took the job in Dallas at Ticor, now Alamo, it has become increasingly difficult for me to attend CCAR meetings, and I am finding it even harder to take the one day each month to meet with all of you for our classes. The office I work in is a smaller office and it is difficult for me to get away for an entire work day when everyone has to cover for me. My business is growing, which is another blessing!

Anyway, it is with great sorrow that I have to drop out but I hope to keep in touch with you all. Bob, I would like to continue meeting with your group each month for lunch....I really enjoyed that. I hope you all will keep me in your email lists because if I can attend a meeting, I would like to....maybe just not an all day event. I am still planning to come to Austin this weekend so let me know where you are all going to meet on Saturday night....I would love to meet up for a little while....but I probably won't be attending class on Sunday.

Best wishes to you all and I hope to see you soon!

Craig Moves on...

I was recently hired as senior property manager for AmREIT, a Houston based firm. I am reponsible for all Dallas properties. As such, I regret to tell you all I have resigned from my position as chair of TRLP, along with TREPAC and CCAR and TAR Boards. I will retain my license with KW and continue to complete transactions with my existing clients. As vice-chair, Michael Elliott will assume my responsibilities. I presume President Narisi will appoint Michael to the chair position. I am sorry I must step down, but know the program is in good hands. I look forward to seeing all of you in the near future. Best wishes in completing this great program!
