2017

Once a year, we host our Annual Partner Agent Summit. This year will be our 6th Annual Summit and it is also the 10th anniversary of the launch of 55places.com, so you don’t want to miss it!

Partner Agents attend the Summit every year because they learn incredible strategies that help them sell more homes, they get to network with top agents around the country, and they have a great time! The Summit includes some of the best sales training you will ever receive, special guest speakers, breakout sessions, and an awards dinner where we recognize the success of our Partner Agents.

The Summit will be held in downtown Chicago at the Holiday Inn Mart Plaza right on the Chicago River. The dates for the Summit are Monday, October 9, through Wednesday, October 11, 2017. The Summit will begin with a Welcome Reception hosted by the Neighborhoods.com team at 6:00pm on Monday evening and will conclude at 12:30pm on Wednesday afternoon. When booking flights, please plan to arrive in Chicago by 4:00pm, October 9 and leave no earlier than 4:00pm, October 11.

Our success depends on having the right partners. We are proud to consider you a partner, and will do everything we can to help you achieve great success. We look forward to your attendance at our Summit this fall for a one-of-a-kind experience that will make you a better real estate agent!

The number one reason to attend the Partner Agent Summit is because you will sell more homes and make more money every year because of the things you will learn at the Summit. Every agent starts asking themselves questions like "can I afford to be away from my business, can I afford to go, will this year be different than the last etc?" We challenge those thoughts and ask, "Can you afford not to attend?" Data doesn’t lie.

For those of you considering attending your first Summit, the return on the investment is obvious. First-time Summit attendees' average conversion rate increased by 39%! Would you want to invest in something that had a 39% rate of return?

For those of you planning on attending your second, third, fourth, or fifth Summit, the 2016 Summit attendees’ average increase in conversion rate over the last year has been more than three times that of non-attendees!

We truly believe in you and our partnership and know what your attendance at the Summit can mean for your business.
