I just got back from attending the 6th annual "CyberStars" Realtor convention ( www.cyberstars.net ) in San Antonio, Texas.  I have been to every one of these, and always find it useful to help me sell homes in Portland Oregon.

This year there were 107 attendees, and many good subjects.  I was talking about our property investment profile program we offer which is doing an automatic market analysis of your house and then triggering it to automatically email it to the seller every 30 days with updates on active, pending and sold homes, even all mapped out too !  I also learned about other tech toys including a tiny battery operated projector which I immediately ordered too.

But at the end of the day, it is a place for me to socialise with other very successful and techy Realtors from all over the USA who think and act just like me, and also talk about home opportunities.  In fact, while there I sold a home in Hillsboro which I hadnt even started to market yet to one of my Realtor freinds from Berkeley, California.

I will continue to attend all these types of events, and im fact speaking at a one day event in Atlanta for Howard Brinton's Star Power ( www.gostarpower.com ) in early February, and again then at the Prudential Real Estate annual convention in San Diego at the end of March, this time in front of about 7,000 people.

Being a top selling Realtor team is about knowledge and about connections and about freinds.  By cultivating all of these, I can do a better job selling homes here in Portland, Oregon
