Experts Cautiously Optimistic
About Local Property Markets
Real Estate Media vice president Michael
Desiato welcomes guests to the second-annual RealShare South Florida.
About 300 commercial real estate professionals attended Real Estate Media’s second-annual
RealShare South Florida event, held Nov. 6, 2007 at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables.
The half-day conference featured experts from a broad range of property sectors and offered an in-depth look at the current climate for the dynamic South Florida market, along
with predictions for its future. The consensus was an equal amount of caution and optimism
for commercial markets approaching 2008.
Numerous panel discussions and networking sessions filled out the afternoon’s agenda,
and the evening concluded with a launch party for Real Estate Florida.
