Aug 20 • Sauk Columbia's "Gyros for Heroes": Good Food, Great Cause
Join the Sauk Columbia Chapter for Gyros for Heroes, where a portion of sales from 11:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. goes straight to Dells/Delton Kops for Kids (and HDA is chipping in $2 from every t-shirt sold that day, too).
Dine in for the full menu or grab delivery from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. (limited delivery menu). However you order it, you're supporting kids in our area while enjoying a great meal.
Come hungry, support a good cause, and bring a friend.

Dear Members,
Growth doesn't happen by accident. It happens when we choose to invest in ourselves, our skills, and our community.
This month, I'd encourage you to do just that. Join us for the Women's Empowerment Conference on July 29th, a day built around real strategy and real connection for women in this business. Registrations are limited, so don't wait.
And take advantage of the smaller moments too: catch up with fellow REALTORS® at our Southwest Happy Hour on August 11th, or grab lunch for a good cause at Gyros for Heroes on August 20th.
However you show up this month, thank you for continuing to invest in your growth and in this community.

AI Use Widespread in Real Estate, but Most Professionals say it Falls Short
A Fyxer report found 90% of real estate professionals use AI, but only 35% consider it genuinely helpful. Researchers say reliance on generic tools, limited workflow integration and underused email automation are hindering productivity, while industry-specific, integrated AI platforms offer the greatest potential for meaningful efficiency gains.

Op-Ed: The Real Estate Industry Doesn’t Need More Agents. It Needs Better Ones
The residential real estate industry is shedding agents. And that is exactly what it needs.
After years of record transaction volume and historically low interest rates, the housing market has slowed dramatically. As a result, many real estate agents are exiting the business. Some view this as a warning sign. I see it as an opportunity.
