On May 29, members of the Guelph and District Association of Realtors (GDAR), the Realtors Association of Grey Bruce and Owen Sound (RAGBOS) and the Lakelands Association of Realtors (Lakelands) voted to amalgamate.
The new association, OnePoint Association of Realtors, will be led by executive officer Katrina Steffler and be effective on October 1. It promises enhanced services, stronger representation and greater opportunities for all members.
“The creation of OnePoint Association of Realtors is a monumental step forward for our members,” says Dillon Fraser, president of GDAR. “By joining forces under one association, we are positioned to provide unparalleled support, advocacy and services, ensuring our members thrive in an ever-changing real estate landscape.”
Bonnie Looby, president of Lakelands, notes that by pooling resources, interests and concerns of members will be more effectively communicated and addressed, and lead to more impactful outcomes.
“We are thrilled with the support from our members for the integration of GDAR, RAGBOS and Lakelands into OnePoint Association of Realtors,” says Doug Pool, president of RAGBOS. “This vote affirms our shared commitment to excellence, innovation, effectiveness and collaboration, and positions us to better serve our members, empowering them to excel and better serve their clients.”
