It's 2011 and we have survived another dynamic year in
real estate! Again this year, I am honored to serve as your Greater
Fairfield Board of REALTORS President.
This year will be about engagement in the community
and giving back. As the Greater Fairfield Board of REALTORS ,
we have been part of the Fairfield fabric for over 50 years and have
seen what active involvement can accomplish.
Our focus will continue to be on our clients and
the vibrant community of Fairfield. We have many initiatives that will
give us the opportunity to build relationships and make a difference.
Our Good Neighbor Award will continue this year, as well as direct
involvement with town committees. We will be giving back to our REALTOR
community through the Gates Scholarship fund raising, which offers
scholarships to college-bound children of REALTORS.
As consumers and clients become even more informed,
we have to answer the call of learning about the many industries
that touch real estate. We continue to do this through our extensive
training and our board meetings which cover the latest trends. We
also strongly encourage affiliate membership to our board for any
company or individual seeking a networking opportunity.
I invite all of you to participate in the board this year
through committees and projects. The reward is immense and greatly
appreciated.
I look
forward to leading you in 2011!
Regards,
Melissa Riley
2011 GFBOR President
