President’s Message

Dear Members,

It is with great pride that I take on the role of President for the 2011-2012 season. For me, WIRRE has always played a role my real estate career and I am continually amazed by the caliber of women that the group attracts and retains. Last year’s Executive Committee did a great job of continuing to promote the organization and offering relevant programs in a tough economic time. The fact that WIRRE members continue to prosper is a testament to the strength of the organization.

This season, with Kerry Putnam, WIRRE’s President-Elect for 2011-2012, I hope to return to WIRRE’s original founding principles with a theme of “back to basics.” Most importantly, I hope to grow our membership by promoting WIRRE’s strongest asset: the generosity and openness of WIRRE’s own members to support each other. Additionally, I am particularly excited about the strength and creativity of this season’s Executive Committee. With their help, I plan to upgrade WIRRE’s social media platform and offer programs to the greater real estate community that are not only informative, but offer a special insight that only a small organization can present. Keeping the “back to basics” theme in mind, please feel free as members to pass on your thoughts to the Executive Committee.

Finally, thank you all for participating in this year’s member survey. We are working hard to make sure your ideas are heard so that you get the most out of your WIRRE membership.

I am looking forward to a fantastic year of returning to the traditions of WIRRE that have made this group so meaningful.

All the best,

Stephanie Cramer Friedman, WIRRE President, 2011-2012
