Park Georgia Luncheon

Once a year we have a luncheon to celebrate the top producers in the office This year we went to The Hart House at Burnaby's Deer Lake.

I always enjoy going to these luncheons to connect on a more personal level with others in the office AND also compare notes with the other realtors as to what is going on with their business ...... something we don't seem to have time to do when we are rushing into the office to meet clients or trying to meet deadlines. Steve Chung in our office specializes in servicing the Korean community AND it was most interesting to listen to what he is up to.

George Lay from RBC Royal Bank was also at the luncheon. George is a mortgage broker, so his focus on mortgages was a very good update. George predicts that short term mortgage rates will soften in the next few months. This is good for business as lower mortgage rates help entry level clients get into the market.

The Hart House provides a perfect venue for small meetings AND their food AND service is good. It sets the stage to mingle and in this case talk shop with the other realtors. A very pleasant way to get insights to how others are doing business AND to swap new ideas!
