Best of NAR MidYear Meetings
This year's NAR Mid Year Meetings in DC were attended by 10,000 of us.
I enjoyed the trade show and the education sessions and meetings, and found the networking the most valuable part. It was fun to visit with ePROTalk and RealTalk folks. The Internet Crusade treated us to libations! What great guys!!!!
Some highlights:
NAR Chief Economist David Lereah statistic-filled presentation, After The Boom, indicated deceleration in 2006 after five straight years of spectacular growth. He does not predict a bust and suggests we may see more growth and appreciation in 2007 after some cooling this year. Future strength will be impacted by the favorable demographic trends, the baby boomer retirement and 2nd home purchases, the growing Asian/Hispanic populations and more balanced markets.
It gives you a toll free fax line, on line storage vault and ease of encrypting signatures. This is the key to becoming paperless!!! Their website has some terrific, short videos on using the tablet, and the differences between a notebook and a tablet. They will educate you to all the important criteria when choosing.
Use my name when ordering to get a $50 discount on the software.
WCR honored me with their Connections Best Article 2005 Award at the Awards Dinner last Friday! What a delightful surprise. This was my article on Tablet Computers. If you are thinking of buying, my article will help!
My new preferred provider for the Motion Computer Slate Tablet is www.toptabletpc.com I can offer you a $50 rebate to you if you order through them for your Tablet.
Trade show had few new products or vendors.
Although I guess just still being there is an accomplishment! I mostly gathered giveaways to bring home to Lily.
We saw 3 booths with lights for your signs-how long will those last before being stolen, I wonder?
One new product called Hyperhitch caught my fancy. Turn your vehicle into a moving billboard!
