Real estate growth rarely happens alone. The right conversation, referral, or professional connection can lead to your next client, partnership, or opportunity.
Chicago Real Estate Networking Breakfast: Deals & Referrals brings together residential and commercial real estate professionals for a focused morning of practical insights, breakfast, and genuine industry connections.

This session will also feature a guest speaker: Michael R. Thompson, a Chicago-based real estate broker and investor with over 15 years of experience in residential and small commercial transactions.

Michael has built a reputation for consistently generating deals through strategic referral networks and long-term client relationships. He currently leads a boutique brokerage team focused on helping agents and investors scale their business through relationship-driven deal flow.

During this session, Michael will share real-world strategies on:
