In recent years I've traveled to educational events throughout the country learning how to utilize state of the art technology in the real estate business today. Understanding technology, as it relates to growing and keeping your business running successfully, has been quite a learning curve. I learned to do paperless transactions and how to best communicate with busy tech-savvy professionals. Even though it wasn't easy, I got a handle on it and I've found it to be very beneficial.
