Our team went to our first in-person conference in over a year at the Homevestors Association Summer Summit 2021 in Orlando in June. It was wonderful to be back face-to-face with customers, making connections, and discussing the real estate industry on a live panel.

Read below for an insightful recap from Ray Williamson, Director, Strategic Accounts, on the event and Kiavi’s experience there:

  • There was a large number of operators that attended the Mid Year Summit. The experience levels of attendees varied and our team came across many who had multiple investments or flips to their names. We noticed good foot traffic for both of the event days (Wednesday and Thursday). Also, HVA sponsored a vendor happy hour on Wednesday evening that was in the center of the vendor area. This allowed all participants to casually meet and greet and even schedule time the following day for a deeper conversation. It was an excellent chance to make connections and learn from others!
  • The rental topic of acquiring and owning rental properties was a very active discussion during the conference. This topic also allowed Kiavi to gain a deeper reach into the HVA community and their take on rentals, as well as an opportunity to share more about the Kiavi Rental Program with them.
  • Kiavi definitely has an established credibility at the conference which we are proud of. We are grateful that the executive team at HVA certainly appreciates and acknowledges our presence and ability to deliver value to the HVA community. Also, many of the existing customers felt strongly enough to pop by the booth and simply advocate for Kiavi to other HVA owners.  

Big thanks to the HVA community and our amazing customers who were there advocating for us. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait for the next conference!
