The 16th Annual Luxury Real Estate Fall Conference was recently held Monday, October 10th to Wednesday, October 12th, at the Grand Del Mar. Keynote Speakers included Robert Frank, wealth columnist with the Wall Street Journal and Joe Stumpf, of By Referral Only.
The conference was hosted by John Brian Losh, Chairman/Publisher of Luxury Real Estate, (LuxuryRealEstate.com and Who’s Who of Luxury Real Estate), a membership-driven luxury brokerage assemblage based in Seattle, Washington. The network includes the most prominent global luxury brokers and meets three times each year, nationally and internationally, to discuss current real estate trends.
