FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CHICAGO (Oct. 10, 2008) - PERL Mortgage partners with Jameson Real Estate to co-host the 2nd annual Crystal Ball on Thursday, Oct. 23, 2008, to allow industry professionals the opportunity to network and also raise funds for Windy City Habitat for Humanity. This landmark event takes place from 7 to 10 p.m. at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum on 2430 N. Cannon Dr., Chicago, Illinois.

“As a trusted lender in Chicago, PERL Mortgage is excited to be a part of this year’s Crystal Ball and give back to the community,” says Ken Perlmutter, president and founder of Chicago’s leading mortgage banker, PERL Mortgage. “This is a great opportunity to gather with fellow industry professionals and spend some time networking, while giving back to an important and worthy organization.”

This year’s Crystal Ball unites Chicago’s top real estate professionals for the opportunity to network with some of Chicago’s finest, while saluting the spirit of stewardship that helps Windy City Habitat for Humanity bring the American dream to life. Industry experts, including developers, realtors, mortgage professionals, insurers, builders, attorneys, and marketing executives are expected.

The night of entertainment and celebration marks the second year of hosting for Jameson Real Estate and sponsorship for PERL Mortgage. Billed “The Party of the Year” by attendees, the Crystal Ball drew more than 800 real estate professionals in 2007 - this year’s event projects a sellout.

Sponsorship packages are available and donations to the Windy City Habitat for Humanity organization are welcomed. With the help of generous industry professionals, donations from the event can raise enough money to allow Windy City Habitat for Humanity to build a home for a deserving family.
