7 REASONS TO BE UPBEAT ABOUT REAL ESTATE

7 reasons to be upbeat about real estate

Tired of all the gloom and doom media reports about the real estate market? Yes, and rightly so. In highly energetic workshop sessions, Jim Manke , CAE, explains why there are “7 Reasons to be Upbeat about Real Estate.”

  • According to Manke, these are the reasons:
  • Americans remain optimistic about home ownership.
  • Interest rates are at historic lows.
  • Stimulus package will pump money into real estate.
  • Buyers have so many choices and need a REALTOR® more than ever.
  • Sellers need to differentiate and need a REALTOR® more than ever.
  • REALTOR® knowledge will be scrutinized and valued.
  • Real estate is part of pop culture.

“After all, we’ve faced tough times before,” says Charles McMillan, 2009 National Association of REALTORS® president. “As long as we continue to work United Toward Tomorrow, I know we will come out on top.”

It’s when business is difficult that associations show their real value. Help your members understand that better days are on the way with Manke’s workshops. His presentations will help your members cope with today’s economic conditions and will pay dividends back to the association for years to come. Manke has worked with hundreds of REALTOR® associations during the past 10 years.

Presentation can be made in both one- and two-hour formats. To schedule a “7 Reasons to be Upbeat about Real Estate” workshop, call (219) 916-4821 or e-mail Manke at Jim@JimManke.com.
