I just returned from the NAR convention in Orlando. The weather was great and the convention was even better. It was interesting to see the number of breakout sessions, vendors and networking events that catered to young professionals. It tells me that now more than ever is a great time for a Gen X or Gen Y professional to enter the real estate industry.
I also had an opportunity to attend the Young Professionals Network “Mix and Mingle”at the Red Coconut Club at Universal Studios. It was refreshing to be surrounded by a group of optimistic real estate professionals. I can honestly say that I did not hear one negative word about the economy or the real estate industry. Everyone was so focused on the future, they refused to take the time to listen to the media. There were over 300 in attendance; including Madison Hildebrand, star of BRAVO’s “Million Dollar Listing” and also a fellow 30 under 30.
I recommend you take the time to start a YPN chapter in your community.
