Hi Martin - I think that the best way for me to respond is with a few paragraphs from my advice in the upcoming Donald Trump book,"The Best Real Estate I Ever Received" (due out this fall): Several years ago I was preparing to deliver the keynote address to 500 members of the Commercial Investment Real Estate Institute at their annual educational conference in Toronto. That evening many of CCIM members were accompanied by their families and there were about 20 children at the banquet. Because magic has been a hobby for several decades I often use a couple of “miracles” as part of my talks. That night I asked the event organizers to create a small open space in front of the riser where I was to deliver my talk and to assemble the children (ranging from 3 to 13 in age) there seated on the floor. With the 500 attendees hushed after I was introduced I asked them to sit back and watch for a couple of minutes before my talk because I wanted to do a couple of tricks for the children. In the course of my “mini magic show” I asked the assembled children how many thought they would go into the real estate business like their mom or dad. Three of 19 children raised their hands (the 20th was asleep!) Spotting a spare chair near me on the stage I took a huge chance and with no script or plan, I invited an 11 year old girl who had indicated that she might get into real estate up onto the stage with me, The 500 real estate pros watched. I shared the microphone with her as we chatted briefly and her sincerity impressed me. Then I took the biggest risk of my speaking experience. I asked her what she thought the real estate business would be like at the time she would be entering it in 10 or 15 years. I held my breath knowing that if she wanted she could give me a blank “are you crazy” look as just say “I have no idea” leaving the whole impromptu exercise flat as a pancake! But she didn’t. She looked at me with all the sincerity an 11 year old can muster, without a beat and very matter-of-factly said “Everything will be very small and very fast!” In those simple words she described the future better than all of the touted prognosticators rolled into one. I still get chills when I think about her description of the future for real estate. Think about it every once in a while and I’ll bet you will too! The changes we have seen since then will pale into insignificance when we see how rapid change will affect our real estate industry in the next 5 years. We will be gathering, organizing, arranging and presenting information to help perfect the accuracy of our real estate decision making process -- and everything will be very small and very fast!
