PRESIDENTS'S MESSAGE - 2012.7 William H. Kinn, MAI, CRE Long Island Chapter President - Year 2012.7 Dear Friends and Colleagues,
We are now officially in summer mode with the passing of the summer solstice and have already experienced our first heat spell. The Long Island Chapter had a number of dinner meetings with insightful speakers during the first half of 2012 and offered many educational programs and events.
We have a number of interesting meetings and events planned for the Fall including the Long Island Real Estate Conference which will take place on Tuesday, October 23rd. The Long Island Real Estate Conference is a special afternoon seminar that will feature real estate professionals from the Residential and Commercial sectors. Some of the planned speakers include Dottie Herman, David Hunt and Barry Stein. Ms. Herman is President and CEO of one of the country’s largest and most well-known residential real estate companies, Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate. David Hunt is President of Hunt Corporate Services, Inc., an industrial and commercial consulting and brokerage firm, and Hunt Construction Services, Inc. Barry Stein is the president of Rohman & Stein Associates, Inc.; a 30-year old commercial real estate financing firm that is responsible for over $2.5 billion of mortgage and equity financing. The aim of the conference is to provide an overview of the Long Real Estate Market. This will be a new event for the Long Island Chapter and I believe that it will provide meaningful insight for our members and virtually anyone else active in the Long Island Real Estate Market. It is my hope that this conference will become an annual occurrence.
I had the opportunity to attend the 2011 National Conference in Las Vegas last August and will be attending the regional meeting and national conference this summer. The 2012 National AI Meeting is scheduled for August 1st in San Diego, California. I would encourage all of you to consider attending this event. Please let me know if there are any issues or concerns you would like me to discuss while in attendance.
National has enacted the Candidate for Designation program and it will take effect on January 1, 2013. “The Appraisal Institute’s Candidate for Designation program will help identify and motivate qualified individuals to become designated in a timelier and more effective manner so that they can use their skills to better serve the public”. This program should provide a clear path to designation with courses scheduled in a comprehensive and timely manner.
I would encourage all Associate members to sign-up for this program before August 31st to take advantage of the special discount being offered. Being a designated member of the Appraisal Institute allows you to enhance your career potential and the educational benefits and prestige are well worth the effort.
Our next Chapter meeting is scheduled for September 19, 2012. Topic is “Revitalization of Hempstead Village”. Our first Fall Board meeting will take place just prior to the dinner meeting at 4:30 p.m. It is important that all Board Members are in attendance. Please check the chapter website for upcoming courses and programs at: www.liappraisal.com.
The chapter has had a productive first half and I would like to thank all of the members for their hard work and participation. I hope you will all take some time to enjoy the summer and I look forward to seeing you this Fall.
Sincerely,
Long Island Chapter of the Appraisal Institute
William H. Kinn, MAI, CRE
