Plus, be on the lookout for other events throughout the year hosted by our team. Make sure to follow Kelly, Realtors on socials to find out about some of our own events as we announce them to the public closer to event dates. In the meantime, our real estate agents suggest checking out the following events coming to Waco in 2022:
