FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

11.15.2009 - A Recession is a Terrible Thing to Waste - We in real estate experience a recession every seven years on average, twelve of them since 1929. We all know this is a cyclical business yet every time we go through down turns we act surprised and hear the same sorrowful laments. Each down turn is different in nature due to compounding economic factors of the time, but the effect is the same for our industry. Recently, I heard Brian Buffini use this title phrase and it sent me reflecting on some truths of our business that may possibly help you now or in the future.

08.19.2009 - Real Estate, It’s not as hard as it looks by Bob McKinnon
For forty years now I have watched the ongoing cycle of this business of thousands of people each year going into real estate while the same number leave the industry having failed or not liking it. In many cases the process damages these well meaning individuals financially and emotionally in significant and sad ways. Granted many were not suited for our industry or prepared for the realities of it but so many could have made it if pointed in the right direction earlier.
