It's my great pleasure and personal honor to welcome you to my blog The Inside Associate. The idea to have a blog has been marinating on my brain since about late December of 2010. I wanted a forum to point out interesting developments in RE coming about from Macro-Economic events.
My personal goal for this blog is to be a place where somebody involved within the industry can visit. Look around and add to their perspective on current events and things happening in our field. I will focus on things directly and indirectly "making waves" in RE and provide thoughts that are "Sub Rosa" hence the term "Inside". I will be looking at this from the point of view of a "Young Turk" making my way through our industry hence the term "Associate".
I will consistently try and gather information from both sides of orthodoxy. The optimist, the pessimist, the bull, the bear, the extravagant, the frugal. I will not try to referee who or what is right or wrong at the time. In my experience life and business isn't black or white. Many times it's shades of gray.
The format will revolve around finding an interesting view on the industry in it's current state. I will try to do some groundwork and provide a take to add to the topic or news and move from there. Every so often, I will try to get some opinion leaders, industry movers, and thought drivers to provide their perspective on things.
So to recap, this blog will provide a point of reference on large scale events causing ripples or movements within the RE industry. This blog will try to give context and proportion, and a little of the "inside baseball" that is beneath the surface. What this blog won't be is political beyond talking about government actions and ideas or a platform to push an agenda. What this blog will be is informative, expansive, unafraid, and possibly a little irreverent.
For now, that's all I got. I'm looking forward to getting underway and getting your feedback.
Till next Time
The Inside Associate
