Welcome to day two of the RE/MAX International Convention in Las Vegas.   My group and I from RE/MAX Realty Plus in Sebring, Florida had a great opening general session with Dave Liniger the founder of RE/MAX International as the keynote speaker.  Listening to Dave Liniger confirmed that I am working for the greatest real estate organization in the world.  Mr. Liniger talked about our tough market ahead and how RE/MAX provides the best tools for all it’s agents and makes us stand out as the best in the world.  Nobody sells more real estate than RE/MAX — but I already knew this.  Just as nobody sells more real estate in Highlands County - Sebring, Avon Park, and Lake Placid than RE/MAX Realty Plus.  We also previewed some of the new T.V. commercials that will soon be release.  Since this is the 35th anniversary of RE/MAX we all enjoyed a step back in time watching commercials from the past and watching to dancers and listening to music from the past 35 years.  This brought back a lot of memories since I graduated the same year RE/MAX was founded in 1973!

I made new friends from around the world today — a nice group from Santo Domingo that was sitting in front and behind us…Wilton Muese, Roberto Abreu, Paola Ridriguez, and Linabel Martinez of RE/MAX Metropolitiana.  From Switzerland in the lobby I met Bernard Stauffer of RE/MAX La Cote from Switzerland who flew 20 hours to attend the convention.  Tonight at the ice cream social we met a fun group of guys from Germany.  Sven Gartner and his friends from RE/MAX  Immobilien Concept  were having too much fun!  We first noticed them at the convention walking around in native dress.  I think they stood out as having the best time of all.  At one point we saw them all in the spa out by the pool having a great time.  Later we exchanged business cards and converstation and took our photo together.  Hopefully, when European buyers decide that Florida will be a great place to find a second home, they will send referrals to me in Sebring!
 
Today was work too.  I continue to confirm my internet marketing is second to none in Highlands County.  I have pick up some great marketing ideas that I cannot wait to put into place once I return home on Friday!
