Independent Broker Alliance
The purpose of the Independent Broker Alliance (IBA) is to provide forum for independent commercial real estate brokers/agents to share ideas, best practices, and market information. We meet monthly, usually with guest speakers. Our programs are focused on resources that commercial real estate brokers need to be successful and serve their clients more effectively.
