I SURVIVED REAL ESTATE 2024

The Norris Groups 7th annual award-winning event, I Survived Real Estate, is Friday, October 25 at the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda. Our 17th annual black-tie gala will benefit Make-A-Wish. Since 2008, together we’ve raised well over $1,000,000 for charity!

In a year of lingering inflation, housing shortage, sticky high interest rates, national affordability challenges, a dangerous war and an uncertain upcoming election are just some of the headwinds we face as an industry and a nation. What will the FED do as year year finishes out? How big will the FED decision loom on this year and the expectation of a better 2025? Oh yeah, there is that little decision the country is going to make as this year looks like a big presidential election in terms of what the economy will look like for the next four years. Our panels are always some of the brightest minds to help us tackle topics we never thought we’d have to consider and how they might impact real estate.


In this episode:

• Expert Insights on Real Estate Market Trends and Opportunities
• Operational Strategies for Success in Today's Economy
• The Transformative Impact of AI on the Real Estate Industry
• Building a Lasting Legacy in Real Estate: Key Lessons and Strategies
• Inspiring Personal Stories Behind Real Estate Legacy Projects
