We cordially invite you to join us at the 14th Annual NYS Commercial Real Estate Conference, June 8-10 at the Turning Stone Resort & Casino, Verona, N.Y. The conference is sponsored by the New York State Commercial Association of Realtors, NYS CCIM and the Society of Exchange Counselors. Brian DiNardo (DiNardo Realty Corp., Rochester) is the conference chairman. This is the 20th Anniversary of NYSCAR's founding, so the event is going to be special.
This year's program has something for everyone. We have great commercial education courses, an investment property marketing/networking session, a legislative update with Mike Kelly (NYSAR's director of government affairs), updates with organization leaders and a keynote session with top-notch panel members to discuss "Identifying Strategic Partnerships: A Realtors Guide to Community Resources."
The panel will be moderated by Anthony Capece, Central Ave. BID. The panel will consist of the following speakers: Wade Beltramo, general counsel to the NYS Conference of Mayors and Municipal officials; William Bingham, Small Business Development Center, Kathleen Bronson, executive director of Albany County Land Bank, and Honora Spillane, economic development specialist with the Onondaga County office of Economic Development.
Each year the million dollar marketing session is a great networking event - a chance to do business - make connections - connect with colleagues. For June 9, we are fortunate to have Jim Wilson, CCIM, SEC (Florida) and Chuck Sutherland, SEC (Texas) as the lead moderators for the event, assisted by Nick DeMarte and Jim Walker, CCIM. The association also appreciates our education chairman, Bob Giniecki, CCIM, who not only plans the education for the event, but also plans the marketing session. Wilson will also instruct "More Transactions from Real Estate Marketing Sessions" on June 8.
We are pleased to welcome Joe Larkin, CCIM, SIOR, Tim Conley, CCIM, SIOR, and Maine Shafer, JD as this year's instructors for the commercial education programs on June 10! Shafer will present a program on "Tax Strategies for the Commercial Real Estate Professional;" Conley will present "Comprehensive Due Diligence is Key in Real Estate and Larkin will present "Valuation of Leases and Investment Strategies for the Landlord," and "Negotiations of the Commercial Real Estate Transaction."
As always, we appreciate our sponsors.
