8 to 9 a.m.                                  Breakfast

9 to 9:05 a.m.                             Welcome
Susan Cole, 2025 NHAR President

9:05 to 10:05 a.m.                      “Always Inspiring: YOU!” 
Matthew Ferrara
What are great professionals doing to win the future? In this high-energy, story-rich keynote, Matthew Ferrara challenges audiences to rethink success by starting with the most powerful tool they already possess: themselves. Blending inspiration with practical business strategies, this program helps real estate professionals reconnect with their purpose, sharpen their mindset, and embrace the tools and growth techniques that drive success in today’s fast-changing real estate market.

10:05 to 11:05 a.m.                   Economic Update
Dr. Jessica Lautz
Where have we been, and where are we going? Deputy Chief Economist and Vice President of Research at the National Association of REALTORS explores national and statewide data to assess the fundamentals of the economy and housing market across the country and here in New Hampshire.

11:05 to 11:15 a.m.                     Break

11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.           “The Lions of Winter”
Ty Gagne
Lessons from Lions: What motivates someone to leave the warm confines of home, their family, or work on a moment’s notice to help others in need – even when those others may have “decided” themselves into trouble? Using his latest book, an historic and tragic story on Mount Washington, Ty explores the values of service and community – and the parallels to the space in which real estate professionals use the Code of Ethics as their guiding light.

12:15 to 1:15 p.m.                     Lunch

1:15 to 2:15 p.m.                       Dancing with AI
Matthew Ferrara
In this energizing workshop, real estate professionals learn to partner with AI not just for efficiency, but to amplify creativity, deepen client relationships, and unlock new business opportunities. Through real-world examples and hands-on strategies, participants will reframe AI as a growth tool, identify high-impact use cases in marketing, sales and service, and develop brand-aligned prompts and workflows. The session builds confidence in using AI ethically and creatively, enhancing, not replacing, the human touch.

1:15 to 3:15                                Government Affairs/Legal Update
Bob Quinn and Matt Johnson
2 CEU NH
Following a legislative session in which housing was a clear priority, NHAR Chief Executive Officer Bob Quinn will provide a review of the results and an update on their real estate implications. Bob will share the stage with NHAR legal counsel Matt Johnson, who will share a legal update and more best practices for risk management in today’s real estate climate.

2:15 to 3:15 p.m.                       Building a Legally Compliant AI Framework
Brian Bouchard, Esq.
Join Attorney Bouchard of Sheehan Phinney for an engaging, interactive presentation on leveraging artificial intelligence in business and real estate fields. Using real-world examples, Attorney Bouchard will discuss the legal implications of using (and in some cases not using) AI, policies every business should consider, concerns involving algorithmic discrimination, recent regulatory initiatives surrounding AI use, and why AI may not always be the bargain it seems. Don't miss this chance to gain insights on this topic and stay ahead of the curve on this rapidly evolving technology. Walk away with actionable steps to implement AI responsibly, ethically, and legally.

3:30 to 4:30 p.m.                       Manufactured Home Financing
Tammy Verani

3:30 to 4:30 p.m.                       REALTOR Safety
