The fall season is quickly coming upon us and with it the first annual NYC Real Estate Expo is to arrive, on Friday, October 30th at The Roosevelt Hotel, from 10am-5pm. “We are excited about showcasing our exhibitors, vendors and speakers as we are certain they will make our inaugural year the preeminent real estate event in New York City,” Executive Director Anthony Kazazis stated. The NYC Real Estate Expo is the only real estate show in the city geared exclusively towards the real estate and real estate related professional. “We are dedicated to bringing in the highest quality real estate suppliers and service providers to meet and talk one-on-one with. Our exhibitors, all experts in their fields include: bankers, attorneys, real estate brokers, developers, mortgage companies, title insurance companies, accountants and financial planners, to name a few. We have over 100 exhibitors participating and are expecting thousands of professional consumers from a vibrant cross section of the industry.”

This year, most of the city’s real estate events were cancelled due to the industry downturn. But according to Kazazis, this event couldn’t come at a better time. “With the continuing changes and uncertainties in the real estate market it is imperative for real estate professionals to keep abreast of the latest trends and stay on top of the best products and services that our area businesses have to offer.”

In addition to the exhibitors there will be free Educational Seminars going on over the course of the day. “This is a great opportunity to learn from the stories and tested methods of our hugely successful speakers as they cover the most relevant topics affecting the real estate market today. Some of our speakers are: Steven Spinola / REBNY, Tom Anderson / Pensco Trust Company, Robert Knakal / Massey Knakal Realty Services, Jorge J Lopez / Con Edison Solutions, Staff of StreetEasy / StreetEasy, John Kazazis / ARS Abstract Ltd., Raymond Villani / Bid on the City, Ryan Slack / Greepearl.com, Marilyn S.

Weinstein, Esq. / Ingram Yuzek Gainen Carroll & Bertolotti LLP and George Eliopoulos / MW Commercial Capital Corp.”

As Anthony Kazazis pointed out, “there is still time to sign up for those interested. This event is an effective and affordable way to maximize your exposure and visibility to highly motivated professional consumers. Meet and connect with fellow real estate professionals, investors and small business owners looking to invest in the real estate industry and in their lives. This is an exclusive opportunity to share contacts, exchange business leads and network with targeted exhibitors and high quality real estate-minded professionals.”
