BiggerPockets

I was asked to join a panel of real estate experts yesterday for the #140 Conference in Detroit. Held throughout the country, the #140 conferences are some of the most "wired" in communities I have seen. The Detroit conference was held at the Fillmore in Detroit and featured over 70 speakers in 10 minute time slots. Everything moved pretty quickly and speakers found themselves talking to the crown of most people's heads because they were listening and tweeting at the same time. It was surreal.

As part of the real estate panel we were asked some pointed questions that I open to you and your feedback.

Where do you see Social media taking real estate in the next 5 years?

With the wealth of information available on the net, is there a need for real estate professionals in the future?

There is an overwhelming  change in the way business is done. Social media, be it Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Delicious, Youtube, etc. is changing the landscape of communication and industries.
