On May 10^th the Board of Directors of the Attorneys’ Real Estate Councils of Florida hosted the Annual Florida ARECS Leadership Forum at the Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek Resort in conjunction with Fund Assembly.

We were recently asked by Florida Realtors® to describe what Attorneys’ Real Estate Councils of Florida (“Florida ARECS”) does in 35 words or less for a promotional piece that will go out later this year.

The tagline for Florida ARECS is Together We All Succeed. In marketing, a tagline is a short phrase used by a business or brand to summarize its mission and identity. Creating a tagline to represent what real estate attorneys do is a pretty challenging task. How do you summarize all that you do? Advocate? Solve problems? Counsel clients?

September and October were, shall we say, “yuge!” for Real Estate Council Realtor® events. The Florida ARECS Board of Directors would like to congratulate the following RECs for their outstanding accomplishments in promoting positive Attorney/Realtor® Relations.

On August 25^th and 26^th, Florida ARECS hosted a booth at the 2016 Florida Realtors® Convention and Trade Show. The Florida ARECS Board of Directors has worked tirelessly to establish a relationship with Florida Realtors® and our participation in their convention was an extension of that effort. Fourteen volunteers representing Florida ARECS and seven local RECS descended on Orlando to share our message with the more than 3,000 real estate agents attending this year’s event.

Florida ARECS was created to support and promote real estate attorneys and our board is committed to delivering tangible solutions for our Strategic Priorities:

I hope this issue finds you and your family well.  The past year has presented countless challenges to us all personally and professionally.  There used to be distinct boundaries between “personal” and “professional” but with remote work and remote learning for children, we are all adapting to this new hybrid environment, and the Real Estate Councils are no different.
