Commercial Information

 
GHAR serves the needs of our commercial members as they shape and unify the commercial real estate brokerage and service industry.

Commercial REALTOR members develop, buy, sell, lease, and trade commercial, industrial, retail, and warehouse property. Some commercial members may also be property managers. Our Affiliate members supply services to the commercial/industrial market.

The Industrial Commercial and Investment Council (ICI) was formed in October, 1993 to help GHAR better serve our commercial members. The purpose of the ICI is to provide for the education, exchange of information, mutual cooperation, and fellowship of those REALTORS and Affiliate members having interest in the industrial, commercial and investment segments of the real estate field. In March 2010, the ICI was accredited by the national REALTORS Commercial Alliance (RCA).

The ICI meets most months, usually on the first Thursday of each month for a breakfast meeting. The ICI is led by a volunteer Board of Directors.

SAVE-THE-DATE:
Join us for “A Night at the Museum”

ICI Signature Event
Thursday, May 3, 2012
5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
The State Museum of Pennsylvania

Harrisburg

Join us for an evening of fun and fellowship with friends at one of Pennsylvania’s finest attractions.

Please plan to attend the inaugural ICI Signature Event on Thursday, May 3, 2012, at the State Museum of Pennsylvania. This unique event will provide attendees with the opportunity to network with your colleagues and to explore all that is offered at the State Museum. Commercial REALTORS and affiliate members from neighboring REALTOR associations also will be invited to attend this event.

Invitations will be mailed in March. Please watch for additional information in the invitation and in the Commercial E-News.

Sponsors Needed!

We currently are looking for sponsors for the event. The ICI Signature Event is a great way for your company to reach REALTORS and affiliate members from various Associations around the South Central Pennsylvania area.

There are 4 different levels of sponsorships, but please note there is only 1 sponsorship available at each of the top two levels.

If you or your company is interested in sponsoring, please complete and submit the Sponsor Sign-up Form or contact Sherri Pursel at the Association.

For more information, please contact Sherri Pursel at GHAR at sherri@ghar.info or at (717) 364-3200.
