Conrad is a Leader, a Mentor, a Teacher, and a Visionary for the ultimate real estate experience.
Recently I had the chance to watch that famous monologue by the actor Jeff Daniels from The Newsroom (2012), where he reluctantly answered the question, ‘Why is America the greatest country in the world?’ The scene was played at a real estate conference I attended recently in ...
Growing up in a disciplined Italian household, secrets were kept to the biter end. You see my parents did not really care which one of us broke something or attempted to murder the other, we would all somehow get disciplined, my sisters were at fault for not looking after me a...
I travel a fair bit and I’m baffled by the lack of technology which could make the experience that much better. Imagine a world where you enter the airport and an app would geolocate you and welcome you to the airport and tell you to turn right or left to check-in. It would kn...

This year I had the pleasure of doing some extensive travel. I started in January with trips to Vancouver and New York City. Then off to Palm Beach, Las Vegas, Athens, Naples Florida, Istanbul, Naples Italy then London and Paris. I still have Fort Worth, and will finish the ye...

I felt it was important to pull some interesting facts and weigh in on some important strategies to get us through the ‘Bucking Bronco’ that is the market.
