Local professionals supporting each other and giving back to our community. That is what Impact Networking is all about.

Today we had a great illumination topic about how this snowy and bitter cold Winter has impacted the real estate market. Thanks to Justin Guerrera-Regency Real Estate for providing this insight.

Our spotlighted member this week was Shelley Rinaldi Interiors, who gave a presentation on working with a designer, including what questions to ask a designer at the consultation and highlighting how a designer can help you solve pain points in your home to create spaces that are practical in both functionality and beauty.

When local professionals come together, the entire community benefits.
That’s what Impact Networking is all about.

From helping homeowners and business owners find reliable resources, to supporting families in need through local initiatives, Impact Networking is proud to be a group that gives back directly — without corporate oversight or out-of-state agendas.

It’s a simple idea:
Local people.
Local businesses.
Local impact.

If you’re a professional who values collaboration, accountability, and community — or if you’re looking to connect with people who genuinely care about doing business the right way — we’d love to meet you.

Protect what you build — the right way. 🧱⚖️

At this week’s Impact Networking & Referral Group meeting, we spotlighted our member Attorney Patrick McGrath of Cicchetti, Tansley & McGrath LLP.

Patrick led a fantastic discussion on properly protecting assets within LLCs — breaking down what business owners and real estate investors should have in place to ensure their entities actually do what they were created to: safeguard assets, reduce risk, and create peace of mind.

From separating personal and business liabilities to keeping your corporate structure compliant, Patrick reminded us how a few proactive steps now can prevent major issues later.

It’s always great to see professionals like Patrick share valuable knowledge that directly helps our members and local business community make smarter moves.

Smart home care = long-term savings. 🌿🏡

At today’s Impact Networking & Referral Group meeting, we spotlighted Phil Owens of Bright Green Roof — and wow, what a value-add for homeowners and property investors alike.

Phil shared how Bright Green Roof’s plant-based, non-toxic shingle preservation can extend the life of a roof by replenishing lost oils, increasing flexibility, and protecting against UV damage and weathering — often at a fraction of the cost of replacement. It’s a smart way to protect one of your property’s biggest assets while stretching dollars further.

From single-family homes to investment properties, proactive roof preservation keeps properties performing, prevents surprises, and supports long-term financial sustainability — music to any homeowner or investor's ears. 🌱🛠️

We’re grateful to have industry pros like Phil in our group — educating, sharing, and helping our community grow stronger together.
