IREM West-Central MD Chapter 92

News & Updates - June 2024

Greetings IREM West-Central MD Chapter 92 Family,


As we reach the halfway point of the year, I want to express my heartfelt thanks to each of you for your continued support and active participation in our Chapter. Our growth and success are driven by dedicated members like you.

 

This year, our focus remains on fostering growth in both membership and engagement. Look out for our upcoming Member Spotlights, where we'll feature members with distinguished real estate careers and highlight how IREM has supported their journeys. These spotlights will showcase the many benefits of being an engaged member and how IREM can propel your career forward.

 

A major initiative for us this year is expanding our membership. Please support our Member Referral Program. Any non-member property management professional is welcome to attend a meeting for free, and we'll soon announce an incentive program for referrals. This opportunity is also open to Industry Partners, so please consider inviting your clients.

 

Additionally, IREM Young Professionals (IYP) is undergoing an exciting rebranding. Stay tuned for a new name and an invitation to a fun upcoming event.

 

I encourage you to actively participate in our Chapter’s activities. By getting involved, you'll contribute to our Chapter's success and have the chance to network with peers, share insights, and exchange best practices. The more engaged you are, the more benefits you'll reap, including valuable connections, professional growth opportunities, and access to industry resources. Your involvement can truly enrich your IREM experience and enhance your real estate management career.

 

I look forward to seeing you at our next event!

IREM has so many resources and tools available for members. Please make sure you are checking our websites frequently for updates. As always, please reach out to myself or our chapter office if we can be of assistance to you.
