“In my role as a managing broker, it’s important I am aware of the<br />
issues relevant to our industry and useful tools for our brokers. The<br />
Chicago Association of REALTORS ® offers a platform of tools, training<br />
and advocacy. Being involved has allowed me to be a resource by<br />
sharing information I would otherwise not have. I take advantage of<br />
this opportunity and share my knowledge with our agents.”<br />
— Drussy Hernandez, Conlon/Christie’s Real Estate<br />
“Becoming involved with C.A.R. has helped my business<br />
exponentially. I’ve met hundreds of agents through fellow advisory<br />
board members and C.A.R. events, and many of these agents have<br />
become the familiar faces I see when I’m out with my clients. It says<br />
something to my clients that I’m involved. I’m a dedicated real estate<br />
professional with a vested interest in the future of my industry; that<br />
passion shows through in every listing appointment and at every buyer<br />
tour. My clients take comfort in my involvement and I feel great knowing that I’m supporting an<br />
industry that has done so much for me. As an added bonus, it’s a great way<br />
to meet people and create lasting relationships.”<br />
— Grace Goro Kaage, Coldwell Banker Residential<br />
“I have gained so much personal and professional satisfaction by<br />
networking, joining industry organizations and volunteering my time.<br />
Over many years, I have used their tools and resources to better<br />
my ability to provide quality service to both the consumer and the<br />
membership I serve. I enjoy helping raise the professionalism in<br />
our industry and providing our members the absolute best services<br />
possible as an association leader.”<br />
— Bob Eby, Century 21 Affiliated<br />
