South East Branch

Our branch membership continues to grow and has recently hit the magical 400 mark but we are not resting on our laurels. Our New Members’ night on 30th October was attended by over 70 people and we look forward to welcoming many of those who attended as new members. If you are apprehensive about coming to an event on your own, can I assure you that you will be made to feel most welcome by our members and guests.

Roadshow 2008

Our second annual Schools Roadshow on 22nd October 2008 was a triumph. In association with the O2 and Matter London (sister of Fabric Nightclub), 127 Year 11 students from Lilian Baylis School participated in a team building challenge, working together on a construction project. There was genuine interest in the world of property careers that we opened up to them.

Satellite Branches

Thames Valley Satellite was successfully launched in Oxford on 23rd September 2008 and already a committee is in place planning events for 2009. Solent (South Coast) Satellite launches on 18th November at Ocean Village in Southampton. The launch of the satellites enables us to bring our events programme closer to our members outside London.


Events

Our superb rolling programme of events continues with something for everyone, both at branch and national level, involving a combination of speakers, seminars, site visits and socials over breakfast, at lunchtime and in the evening - with unrivalled opportunities for networking.
I look forward to meeting you all during the course of my year as Chairman.
