T Fair Appraisals
Every builder in this industry is searching for answers to the difficult puzzle of fair and accurate appraisals. Many thanks to Frank Lucco, our February BABA luncheon speaker, for his educational and extremely enlightening approach to this timely topic. Lucco offered some helpful tips for all of us. Most importantly, he recommends builders must do their homework, research comps in the area, and provide complete and accurate information for each and every house they build.

The Crystal Ball
In May, we look forward to one our most popular meetings of the year, Forecast Luncheon with David Jarvis of Metrostudy. Jarvis will break out his "crystal ball" and give us an insightful economic forecast for the Bay Area and how the homebuilding industry will be affected. Sound intriguing? Sign up early, as this luncheon usually sells out. And you have to be here to get all of the helpful information and take advantage of the expertise he brings to the table!
Support Our Troops
Need a little inspiration? Join BABA in June for the BABA Support Our Troops / Operation FINALLY HOME presentation. We are excited to hear from Dan Wallrath about upcoming projects supporting and building homes for wounded U.S. servicemen and their families. This is one way we can give back to our service personnel and make the dream of homeownership come true for those who have sacrificed so much for our freedoms. Please be a part of this luncheon, and be inspired by stories from our heroes. You won't regret it.
BABA is proud to present such great topics to help you boost your bottom line. Why not go ahead and sign up for the rest of this year's luncheons? Contact Karen Krenek at
kkrenek@ghba.org to request registration for the remainder of the year; advance payment of all luncheon fees is required.
