NARPM Keeping Up With NARPM

March and April were packed with so many opportunities for our NARPM members. On March 22nd we filled a charter bus and made the journey to the Texas Capital for REALTOR® Day. Once there we joined the other 3,000 REALTORS® from around Texas that canvased the grounds with the goal of meeting with as many legislators as possible to discuss Private Property Rights and other real estate issues. If you have ever been to the Capital you may agree with me that it’s easy to find yourself feeling lost at times, due to the vast area and multitude of offices. That is the importance of going in large numbers to be able to cover more ground. If you were lucky enough to gain a space to stand in at one of the Representative’s offices, you would have observed the REALTORS® that were chosen to lead the conversation and deliver our message. The professionalism and leadership shined through. At the end of the day as we all headed back to the buses it was a sight to see how many agents knew each other and stopped for a photo op, a hug, or a quick laugh. Although it was a long day, it was productive and if you missed the trip, make sure to mark your calendar for the next one in 2025, take the day off and invest in yourself.

Then on March 29th, we held our Chapter Meeting and Educational Event at the Old San Francisco Steak House where we heard from not one but two speakers. Our first speaker was Attorney, Carl Jay Quezada who spoke about HOA’s and how the latest rule changes have impacted property managers. Our second speaker was Property Manager, Brian Birdy who presented his 2023 Property Management Forecast. We are thankful to our speakers for sharing their knowledge and expertise.

Let’s move on to April. Although property managers work hard, there are times that we need to take a step back and reset. What better way to do so than to celebrate Fiesta style with great food, fantastic company, fiesta medals and mariachis. April’s social was brought to us by our host and affiliate Barton Carpets at their showroom on Bulverde Rd. Lastly, on April 14th a few of our NARPM members headed over to “Dress for Success” (2023 Charity of Choice) to help with their Spring clothing sale. It’s always an enjoyable time helping our partners.

As you can see, we are not only property managers, but also community leaders, advocates and friends. If you are looking to be a part of a property management organization, gain industry knowledge, earn a designation, participate in volunteer opportunities, enjoy social events or become a NARPM Advocacy Fund investor, this is the place for you.
