The Greater Toledo Realtist Association (GTRA) held a First Friday Social Happy Hour at Toast and Tap on September 6, 2024.

Members and guests enjoyed appetizers, refreshments and meals in between laughter and conversations.

“The purpose of this event is to bring information about our organization to the community,” began Faye Smith, GTRA membership chair.

The Greater Toledo Realtist Association (GTFA) was re-established in 2019 with a mission to educate the community, advocate on behalf of our community, elevate the real estate businesses in the process, become a positive and dominate influence in the Ohio real estate market and represent a unified voice for African Americans and other underserved populations.

The membership is comprised of individuals interested in breaking down barriers in Black homeownership. For additional information about the organization visit,
