MetroTex Southwest Dallas Area Meeting and Tour's cover photo

Hilton Garden Inn Duncanville, TX Hotel near Fort Worth

DO YOUR CLIENTS NEED TEMPORARY HOUSING??

From our MLS team at Metrotex:

We received this offer from the Hilton Garden Inn in Duncanville. I though I would share since we have had our MLS Area meetings there for several years now. I hope you can find a ways to support them:

I am reaching out to our loyal Clients and encouraging them to think of Hilton Garden Inn and Conference Center Duncanville as a "Shelter in a Time of Storm". COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on the world and the industries, therein. In order to be of better service to our community, we have become flexible with our rates for those Clients who are in limbo between their old home and their new home. Day use rates are available as well as extended stay rates. We have king standard and two queen standard rooms readily available and can move someone in as early as tomorrow. Day use rates are as low as $59 a day from the hours of 10am-4pm. Extended stay rates are as low as $39 a day, depending on room type. Please help me spread the word. All reasonable offers will be considered. If you know of anyone who could use our assistance, please have them reach out to me directly at 214.271.8264 or [email protected]. Our website is www.dallasduncanville.hgi.com.

hilton.com Few Duncanville hotels can top our plush beds, mini kitchens, flat-screen TVs and free high-speed internet. Book today at the Hilton Garden Inn Duncanville.

Tomorrow is MLS Meeting. Don’t forget to get those listings in for Broker Tour after the meeting. 12pm is the deadline!

MLS Meeting is Tuesday! We have a great sponsor and speaker. Let’s not forget to get those listings on tour Tuesday! Monday at noon is the deadline. Please encourage fellow agents to put their active listings on tour as well.

Agents! Don’t forget to get those listings in my noon today for broker open tour tomorrow following the MLS meeting! We look forward to seeing you 😀

Due to unfortunate circumstances at the Hilton, our monthly MLS meeting that was scheduled for this coming Tuesday, December 10th is being rescheduled for the following Tuesday, December 17th.

Please bring your gift cards for Promise House as planned. Change your dates in MLS for your open houses, and please spread the word to your office and anyone who usually attends the meetings.

Thank you, we look forward to seeing you on the 17th.
