Distressed Real Estate Summit: California – Testimonials

Distressed Real Estate Summit: California is a conference designed by and for commercial and residential real estate executives in California and southwest regional markets. The agenda will speak to the issues unique to the west coast: an abundance of distressed hotels and broken condo deals, and the myriad of opportunities in office, retail, multifamily and retail properties and debt. If you work in this region, make plans to attend February 4th to find out how who is selling, and what it takes to get deals done in a distressed environment.
—Fred B. Córdova, III Senior Vice President, COLLIERS ASSET RESOLUTIONS TEAM

I participated in GreenPearl’s New York Distressed Real Estate Conference, and was impressed with the overall turnout and content. I’m attending their February 4th conference in LA as it promises to provide an objective analysis and review of the new state of our industry.
—Leslie Lundin, President and Managing Partner, LBG REALTY ADVISORS LLC

In these trying times, I always find it beneficial to use all the tools available including meeting with fellow professionals and learning first-hand how to deal with challenges, recognize opportunities and learn what is truly happening in the market.
