Whether you’re a seasoned Realtor or new to the industry, here’s everything you need to know about this year’s Maryland Realtors Annual Conference and why it’s an essential event to mark on your calendar.
A Triumphant Return with High Attendance
After previous years of low attendance due to the pandemic, this year’s conference saw a significant turnout. The “Back to the Beach” theme added a lighthearted atmosphere, reminding everyone of the beach as a place for both relaxation and networking. Real estate agents from Maryland, DC, and Virginia gathered under one roof, eager to make connections and learn from top industry experts.
Title Sponsor Eastern Title and Settlement Leads the Way
As the conference’s title sponsor, Eastern Title and Settlement played a key role in promoting and organizing this year’s event. Josh Green, a representative from Eastern Title, expressed his excitement about being involved and highlighted the importance of supporting the Realtor community. Eastern Title also had a booth set up at the convention center, giving attendees a chance to stop by, learn more about their services, and explore opportunities for collaboration.
The brand recognition that Eastern Title received from this event was invaluable, as they were able to connect directly with hundreds of agents. Through interactions at their booth and on stage, Eastern Title reinforced their commitment to the real estate community.
A Platform for Realtors to Shine on TV
One unique offering from Eastern Title this year was the chance for real estate agents to appear on television at no cost. Through Eastern Title’s partnership with the DMV’s Channel 9, Realtors had the chance to get their listings featured on local TV. This exciting opportunity allows agents to reach a broader audience and potentially sell properties faster, giving them a competitive edge in the market.
This unique TV segment is also available through the D Marva Home Show, where Realtors can showcase their listings to an extensive local audience. With open spots still available, interested agents could visit Eastern Title’s booth to sign up and explore how this media exposure could benefit their listings and brand presence.
Exhibit Hall Buzz and Engaging Activities
The exhibit hall at the convention center was a bustling space filled with vendors, local businesses, and real estate groups. Each exhibitor brought something unique to the table, whether it was services, new technology, or fun activities for attendees. One vendor even set up a golf game, creating a fun environment where agents could mingle, relax, and connect in a more casual setting.
For Realtors, the exhibit hall was a perfect opportunity to network and discover resources that could help streamline their work, from digital tools to marketing services. It wasn’t all business—plenty of friendly chatter and laughter filled the hall, making the exhibit experience both valuable and enjoyable.
The Tiki Hut Center Stage: Presentations and Keynote Highlights
One of the main attractions was the Tiki Hut Center Stage, where presentations and special announcements took place. Josh Green and Jay from Eastern Title took to the stage to discuss their latest initiatives, including the D Marva Home Show and their ongoing partnership with top real estate performers. Their presentation was well-received and served as an open invitation for Realtors to join their popular TV segments.
Eastern Title emphasized the opportunity for Realtors to share their listings on these segments, which air monthly. They encouraged agents interested in boosting their visibility to visit the Eastern Title booth to reserve a spot. With 26 spots available in the DC area and 12 spots at the D Marva Home Show, this initiative allows agents to leverage media exposure for brand growth and listing promotion.
“Back to the Beach” Theme: Fun and Festive Decor
The “Back to the Beach” theme was thoughtfully executed, with decorations that brought a beach vibe to the convention center. From blowup surfboards at the photo booth to ocean-themed backdrops, the ambiance was perfect for a coastal escape. This creative decor gave attendees a memorable experience and highlighted the importance of having a fun and inviting atmosphere.
Networking and Meet-and-Greet Opportunities
Networking was at the heart of this year’s conference. Agents had countless chances to meet potential clients, partners, and mentors. Eastern Title also hosted a meet-and-greet session, inviting attendees to chat and learn more about their services. The friendly, welcoming environment was ideal for Realtors looking to build connections that could lead to valuable collaborations in the future.
For Eastern Title and the event organizers, this meet-and-greet offered a chance to thank the Realtor community for their support and strengthen their relationships with industry professionals.
