Bob, I just wanted to congratulate you on last night's meeting, it was amazing! Your wife Alex gave some great tips on performing Short Sales and Paul Woods presented some incredible information about Florida Land Trusts. My company, Apex Title & Escrow, has found that being a corporate sponsor for the MREIA is the best value in town. Where else can you present information about your company to a targeted group of people, as well as having your own table, for only $30 per meeting? Thanks again for everything. Best regards, Joey Rodriguez President Apex Title & Escrow
