Select Caribbean Properties – Sabine Mertes-Urbahn Speaks at Global Real Estate Symposium in Vienna 2017

Real Estate Symposium, Vienna, Austria

Global Symposium 2017 in Vienna

Cabarete, Dominican Republic – October 7th, 2017 –  Sabine A. Mertes-Urbahn, Broker with Select Caribbean Properties, was a speaker at the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® 2017 Global Symposium, which took place September 24-26 in Vienna, Austria. Open to members of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® (LeadingRE), a selective global community of the highest quality independent real estate companies, the Symposium attracted top-tier real estate professionals from 22 countries.

Participants explored the factors impacting real estate worldwide, with discussions focusing on patterns in international real estate, the global economy, the motivations of today’s affluent consumers, the future of technology in real estate, and what LeadingRE members are doing to respond to these trends in their local markets and collectively as a network.

Sabine Mertes-Urbahn was among a talented line-up of speakers who addressed timely global real estate topics, speaking on the topic of WORLD OF REAL ESTATE. One topic was, for example, the state of the real estate market before the hurricanes Irma & Maria- in terms of a stronger buyer’s or seller’s market, the most active price point and the average days a property is on the market.

Also presenting were keynote speakers Debra Searle, a professional adventurer, and entrepreneur who shared key motivational strategies for achieving the impossible, and Geoff Ramm, a customer service expert and author who offered ideas on creating exceptional client experiences. Additional speakers included LeadingRE’s President/CEO Pam O’Connor, COO Paul Boomsma, Chief Economist Marci Rossell, Dean of Innovation Matthew Ferrara, Executive Vice President of Global Operations Chris Dietz and Luxury Portfolio International® Executive Vice President Stephanie Pfeffer Anton. Numerous member speakers provided first-hand reports on their local market trends and business practices.

“What a fantastic opportunity to meet many of the global members at the Symposium in Vienna and to speak about real estate in the Dominican Republic especially after hurricane Irma and Maria,” said S. Mertes-Urbahn.
