About VREN

Networking for the Tri-Valley real estate community

Realtors®, affiliates, and professionals connect, learn, and build real relationships — every Friday morning in Pleasanton.

The Valley Real Estate Network (VREN) is the weekly marketing meeting for real estate professionals in the Pleasanton, Dublin, and Sunol area. We bring together agents, lenders, title reps, and other professionals to connect, share listings, hear from quality guest speakers, and build the relationships that drive our market forward.

Whether you're a seasoned agent or new to the Tri-Valley market, VREN is your go-to weekly touchpoint for staying informed and plugged in to the community.
