Where Real Estate Gets Its Dirt

The talk of T3

I had a major case of FOMO last week, missing out on the T3 Summit. While Stefan was gracious enough to include me on their Power 200 list I had way too much going on (i.e. launching our new Cloud MLX product) to make the trek.

Rank-45-HeadshotWhile there were a lot of sessions covering some of the most talked about topics (Upstream, AMP, etc.) I’ve talked to a few people who attended the event and the one speaker/person who kept coming up and that everyone was impressed by was Amy Bohutinsky, the Chief Operating Officer of Zillow. She previously ran the marketing at Zillow and took the new role right around when they closed Trulia.

If anyone else has anything to share please say something in the comments. I tried following on Twitter but couldn’t keep up.

Well, there’s always next year. Word is they will hold it at the Four Seasons again in Westlake Village. This year the event sold out fast.

I missed this a couple of weeks ago. I remember speaking with Mike Barnett, CEO of Property Panorama, awhile back and was impressed with the number of MLS providers up and running with Property Panorama and the number of virtual tours they have created, which is now over “5.5 million”.

Kevin Hughes joins Centralized Showing Services (CSS)

Clareity Security customers got an announcement today notifying that longtime employee/partner Kevin Hughes will be leaving the company later this month. Kevin is joining CSS as their VP of Sales, Marketing, and Business Development (no word on janitorial duties as of yet). CSS is headquartered out of Kansas, where Kevin lives. From what I hear the news was a bit of shock to Clareity, but they are happy for Kevin and his new challenge. Looks to be a great opportunity, the online showing space has received a lot of attention in the past few years, with competitor ShowingTime making some big time acquisitions. Congrats to Kevin and CSS.
