We want YOU to be part of Housapalooza!
Housapalooza is a first-of-its-kind experience for first-time homebuyers and sellers. The event will be held IN PERSON on Saturday, April 23rd from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the Holiday Inn® Denver East (3333 Quebec St.)
This will be our very first public-facing homeownership event and is FREE to the public. The day will include Albus Brooks as our keynote speaker to talk about building wealth through real estate, a panel of recent homebuyers, two expert panels, vendor booths and lunch.
This is a GREAT opportunity for you to get in front of the public and help us educate first-time buyers on homeownership. We want to bust the myths and spread some actual knowledge. If you're interested, please contact sponsorship@dmarealtors.com.
Please note: The event will be a no-pitch zone. We will not allow any sales activities on the floor during the event (e.g. randomly passing out business cards to attendees without request) and we are asking that, as sponsors, you focus on business by education.
