Stay Connected With the Industry at Connect
By Inman News, Thursday, December 4, 2008.This year has been a period of tremendous upheaval. Our industry in particular has been heavily hit and every day we hear about more and more of our friends and colleagues that have been laid off due to these unprecedented economic conditions.
Inman News wants to help. Our Community section, for example, features a number of available positions in our job search board.
We also recognize that our upcoming Real Estate Connect conference in New York City is the industry's premier event for high-level networking. In the spirit of keeping our community strong, we want to extend a special opportunity to any industry professional that has recently lost their job to attend Connect and take advantage of this unique networking opportunity.
If you would like to attend Connect but are unable to do so due to a recent job loss, please send an email to elaine@inman.com or call 1-800-775-4662 ext. 128 for special consideration. All information will be kept strictly confidential.

The real estate industry has indeed taken a severe body blow and there is likely further pain to be inflicted. There is virtually nowhere to hide. The real estate industry has been relatively responsive to the economic downturn. But just as the financial industry has been given enormous attention by the federal government, the real estate industry deserves and badly needs such attention. It seems that we may finally be getting some help, hopefully not too little too late. NAR and others have been making some good suggestions and the Congress needs to demonstrate greater leadership and creativity in addressing the real estate downturn and helping resolve the numerous related real estate issues.
