On Thursday night, a select group of Trulia Voicers from across the NYC area made history by attending the first-ever Trulia Voices Unplugged meet up.

For one night, we decided to take the online conversation offline, meeting up at uber-chic Pravda Bar in NYC’s NoLita neighborhood to chat about what was happening in the local real estate market (heck, it might’ve been a bit too chic and hard to find without a sign on the door)! But in our opinion, the location and neighborhood were hot – lots of great eats and worth a look given that the Trulia NYC Heat Map still codes NoLita as still being a relative bargain.

Thanks to the Trulia Voicers who came – not to mention our friends Joe and Rudy at Sellsius who were in full force and voicing up a storm (see their pictures of the event here). We made great connections with some interesting and insightful people!

As a newbie Trulian, I came away with a few observations: first, people from across the real estate industry are using Trulia Voices to connect about real estate – bloggers, brokers, agents, lenders, home buyers, sellers, investors, and more.

Second, people using Trulia Voices can really see the benefits of an online community: a broker who networked with agents online, an agent who answered questions reaching consumers, and then there was Jeffery - a lender who had such a great online dialogue with a consumer that he now has a new client!

Pretty cool stuff, and an effective way to form new real estate connections in an increasingly online world. Thanks again to Adam, Joseph, Peter, Alex, Jeff, Barbara and everyone else who attended for making our Unplugged event a success!

This is just the start of Trulia Voices Unplugged. If you’d like to unplug Trulia Voices in your area, let your voice be heard!
