Carmel hosts Luxury Real Estate Conference
Last week, there were 150 luxury real estate professsionals in Carmel-by-the-Sea for 11th Annual Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate Spring Retreat. Carmel Realty Company played host - inviting attendees to local wine tastings at our office on Dolores and opening up some of our exclusive listings for an unmatched Pebble Beach Golf & Ocean Property Tour. In addition, our very own Bill & Vicki Mitchell received the Luxury Real Estate Lifetime Acheivement Award for their more than 30 years experience.
It was a great opportunity for luxury real estate professionals to network, exchange best practices and learn from our colleagues.
The 11th Annual Luxury Real Estate Spring Retreat was recently held Sunday April 21st to Wednesday April 24th, at the La Playa Hotel in Carmel, California. Keynote Speakers included International Race Car Driver and Indianapolis 500 winner, Danny Sullivan and Digital Marketing Strategist, Philippa Gamse of Websites That Win.
The Retreat was hosted by John Brian Losh, Chairman/Publisher of Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate, a network of top luxury real estate brokers. The network includes the most prominent global luxury brokers and meets three times each year, nationally and internationally, to discuss current real estate trends.
At the conference, discussions centered on topics pertinent to those who serve the high net-worth demographic in real estate, with particular emphasis on public relations, how the financial markets are driving luxury sales, entrepreneurship, team-building, website effectiveness, and running an efficient business. The Board of Regents, the governing body of the network, met preceding the conference. Other networking activities such as a Carmel & Pebble Beach property tour, wine tastings and a golf outing were held. Sponsors included Title Sponsor RPM Mortgage, Carmel Realty Company, the Wall Street Journal, Hualalai Realty, Unique Homes, duPont Registry, and Empower Consulting Group.
The presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award to Vicki and Bill Mitchell of Carmel Realty Company was the culmination of the event.
