National Real Estate Convention in Las Vegas, NV

I just returned home from the NAR (National Real Estate Convention) in Las Vegas, NV.  It was very exhausting, but also extremely enlightening!  I learned so much and met alot of interesting people from around the world!  There were real estate professionals from Russia, Italy, Guam, England & Japan, just to name a few.  There were so many languages spoken sometimes it felt as if English was a “foreign” language!  One thing that was for sure there was the common language of real estate that was spoken.  I believe one great thought that I will take home from this convention is the fact that real estate is not in the horrible slump the news media would like the general public to think it is!   I think many of you will find this link to be enlightening:  http://www.realtor.org/RMODaily.nsf/pages/News2007111401?OpenDocument  I also know that many buyers are interested in foreclosures, which are becoming more prevalant.  I found it interesting that Las Vegas actually leads the nation in the most foreclosures.  There are also new programs to help those that use subprime lending and often times suffer with high interest rates!

I will never remember everything I learned, but if I can just remember a fraction of it then I will be better prepared to be even more professional in my service to others with their real estate needs!
