2015 Realtors® Conference & Expo - In Fast Forward

NAR 2015 - San Diego

Fast Forward Stories was an exhibitor at the NAR conference.  About 20,000 attendees, according to our NAR contact.  Almost 400 exhibitors, and nearly 1/3rd of them were new to NAR.  Hmmm - think there's some innovation and capital coming into the real estate sector?

Here's the high-speed tour:

San Diego's downtown was pretty vibrant - I hadn't been there in well over a decade. The convention center is across the trolley tracks from the Gaslamp District.  (Deft urban design to ensure that a healthy % of conference budgets remain in San Diego.)

Word of advice if you go to a conference there:  if you have a car, leave it in the convention center and walk across the trolley tracks.  I didn't - fortunately - because that lead to a wonderful restaurant, the Farmers Bottega in the Mission Hills district.  Terrific farm-to-table fare - they cook almost as well as my wife, which is VERY high praise.
