Читать книгу Inside Real Estate - O'Malley Peter - Страница 5

To bring a book to completion is a real team effort over a lengthy period of time. While the author may be given credit for the work, the standard of Inside Real Estate was unquestionably raised by the many people that kindly offered insight and direction.

To that end, I am so grateful for the efforts of editors Jacqui Macarthur, Jane O'Connor, Jem Bates and Ken DeGaris for their respective advice and guidance at various stages of writing. Thank you.

Ivan Spanicek, Kerry Rowley, Arthur Kolovos, Gary Pittard, Michael Johnston, Patrick Bright and Tim Altass are all successful long term real estate players. Collectively they ensured the material was modern in identifying market trends yet timeless in outlining the principals of success in the property game.

Ethan Szerenga was a constant source of inspiration throughout the writing of the book. I look forward to reading Ethan's book on his chosen field one day.

The team at Harris Partners Real Estate constantly offered real time market feedback to ensure the consumer will learn of the many changes evolving in the marketplace. In the face of constant challenges, I am proud of the commitment that the Harris Partners team displays on a daily basis.

The silent auction process is now more widely accepted and acknowledged than it was when we released Real Estate Uncovered in 2013. For the many clients who took a chance and selected us to sell their property by silent auction, I would like to say thank you for your trust. When the wider industry is passionately wedded to the public auction process, believing there is a better way takes faith and courage.

For the many agents that supported Real Restate Uncovered, I hope that Inside Real Estate meets and exceeds expectations. The greatest asset a real estate agent can have is a knowledgeable client that ‘gets it'. Hopefully Inside Real Estate assists consumers and agents to separate the spin and find the real substance when transacting. If so, I am certain it will create a more harmonious relationship for both the agent and client.

The entire team at Wiley have been immensely supportive and professional. Their belief in the merits of Inside Real Estate is comforting.

Finally, I would like to thank my beautiful wife Clare and our three boys, Henry, Reggie and Billy, for their love and continual support.
