RE/MAX agent James Shiparski, Andy, Ray, Shannon, and Greg speaking to happy-hour attendees.

Our “You Can” happy hour at Birch restaurant in Milwaukee last week gave attendees a chance to hear financial advice while enjoying a craft beer tasting courtesy of 1840 Brewing Company. The event was inspired by North Shore Bank’s “You Can” series of pieces in the Shepherd Express alt-weekly.

“We had a great turnout, but even better, we had great conversations,” said Shorewood branch manager Shannon Weber, who spoke at the event with investment consultant Andy Eichel, North End branch manager Ray Guardiola and mortgage loan officer Greg Kroll. “It was so nice to see people come out and enjoy this time together, but especially to be able to help them with their financial questions.”
