Tom Maeser Quotations

Oceanfront reaches a certain level where it just makes the inland stuff more popular. You don't have an endless supply of rich investors out there.

That's healthy that we're seeing the big guys come.

That's a large chunk of people that just in that year have been cut out of the market.

The state does not reimburse colleges for new programs or expansion of programs for three years. So, they have to start it themselves and have it up and running.

As we see more and more investors moving inland, we're seeing a decrease in affordable housing.

My guess is we have people who have these beliefs here but they are not going to publicly demonstrate here as much as they would somewhere else.

The real problem is we're squeezing out affordable housing, and that's where our greatest need is.

Agents have to be very, very careful. If I have a buyer client and I'm showing them houses that I would get extra money for, they could question that because it is a conflict of interest. There's a potential code of ethics problem and a potential disclosure problem with your clients if you don't do it correctly.

This points to a potential problem if we keep our rates low. You can't cash flow a high-end unit based on the rental rates.

It's a significant issue for the business. We need to do a much better job in preparing our real estate agents for the real world.
