Realtor® News - September & October 2025
Fund Senior Manager, Legal Education, Michael Rothman presented Real Estate Agents Guide to Florida’s Condo Safety Laws Post Surfside to the Central Panhandle Association of Realtors® on June 10, and again to the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors on August 7.
On August 15, Rene’ Rutan, The Fund’s Manager of Events, Affiliate, REC & Realtor® Relations was invited to speak at the quarterly Florida Realtors® Education Director Committee Meeting to discuss opportunities to partner on Attorney/Realtor® education events. We are grateful to the Education Directors, representing numerous local boards, who shared testimonials about their positive experiences working with The Fund and the Real Estate Councils,
and we look forward to expanding our reach to additional associations across the state.
Since we do not have a Real Estate Council in St. Lucie County (Yet – but stay tuned for news coming soon!), The Fund collaborated directly with the Broward, Palm Beaches & St. Lucie Realtors® to host their very first Legal Lane Live: Speed Rounds with Attorneys’ Council at Tradition Town Hall in Port St. Lucie on August 22. Local Fund Members and attorneys from neighboring RECs, including Indian River Real Estate Council, Real Estate Council of Martin County, and the Attorneys’ Real Estate Council of Palm Beach County came together to deliver an engaging program to over 50 agents.
YOU HAD TO BE THERE! The Fund hosted a booth at the 2025 Florida Realtors® Convention & Trade Show and shared stories about the value of involving a Real Estate Attorney in EVERY transaction – not just the hard ones. Fund Members a/k/a “Caped Crusaders” from far and wide brought the personal touch with their own passion for serving their clients.
