The largest private lending conference in the country is coming to South Florida in less than three weeks.
Organized by Private Lender Law, a Marlboro-based practice, the National Private Lenders Association Conference will take place from March 7 to 9 at the Loews Hotel in Miami Beach. The event is slated to draw top lenders, brokers, investors and service providers who work in the private lending sector, featuring networking, education and entertainment.
Private Lender Law and Private Lender Title, an affiliate, are headlining the gathering.
“There’s no event like the NPLA Conference — it’s how I expanded my successful career in the private lending space and where I made the connections that make Private Lender Law a dominant leader in the lending industry,” said Jonathan Hornik, owner of the NPLA Conference and partner and chair of Private Lender Law, the practice group of LaRocca Hornik Rosen & Greenberg.
“Private Lender Law and Private Lender Title continue to benefit immensely from the connections made at the NPLA Conference.”
The 60th NPLA special guest speakers include renowned mentalist Keith Barry, a hypnotist and brain hacker who’s been featured in more than 40 TV shows over his 20-year career, according to a news release. He was also the chief magic and mentalist consultant on the films Now You See Me 1 and 2.
Guests will also hear from Lesley Deutch of John Burns Research & Consulting, who will deliver the conference’s keynote address covering the macro economy and current housing market conditions.
“The conference is revolutionizing the private lending industry and brings a whole host of positive changes eagerly anticipated by leaders in the space,” Hornik said. He noted that the Miami conference includes a golf tournament on March 7, followed by two days of conference seminars and networking opportunities with legendary housing and lending leaders.
“Private Lender Law will be an undeniable asset to this year’s NPLA Conference,” said Hornik. “We’re proud to be a part of this important event. Everyone who comes to NPLA will come away learning something new — and you’ll be entertained while learning.”
Registration for the event is tiered, with each of the three ticket levels unlocking different opportunities for guests, while a specially priced day pass is available for attending brokers. Later this year, guests can reunite with their connections at NPLA’s Atlantic City conference from June 23 to 25 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
“Our NPLA events are a well-planned balance of networking, education and entertainment,” Hornik said. “They give private lending professionals a one-of-a-kind opportunity to forge meaningful, long-lasting connections — and to have a bit of fun while doing it.”
