efficiency and benefits to our members through several new initiatives.
In particular, I am proud to announce that REIC is now recognized as an
official IREM Region, which will lend benefits to all REIC members.

| FROM THE DESK OF THE ED |
|
So many of us greet each other with the
question “What’s New?”
Around the REIC office these days, however, it is more a question of “Who’s
New?” That is why in this issue of Exchange we have included a brief
staff listing as a way to introduce those who have recently joined REIC
National. I hope that you will all help me in welcoming them to the REIC
group. Please refer to the story in this issue of Exchange or in the
Contact Us section at www.reic.ca.

| Atlantic Connection Wrap Up |

In September 2006, we participated in the 2nd Atlantic Connection in Halifax, NS.
This tradeshow is the largest conference for real estate professionals in Canada's
Atlantic Region, attended by over 500 delegates from both the residential and commercial
real estate sectors. Our presence at this show would not have been possible without the
generous support of the REIC Nova Scotia Chapter.
