""Real estate and financial service professionals can share ideas and access valuable resources through our online community including webinars, talk radio, blogs, forum, newsletters and special reports about all things concerning military housing and service-member economic development,"" said Son Nguyen, president of VAREP. ""Members will have their professional profile listed on VAREP's professional database for military families to choose from to fulfill their real estate needs.""
