Inside this Issue – Autumn 2009


Welcome to the 2009 Autumn Issue of the S.E.C. Observer. Tom Langel, S.E.C. President, encourages us to “Mine Our Resources” and tap into the talent available today to take advantage of the opportunities in our current market.
Stephen D. Barker, S.E.C., CCIM, has written another episode in the life of “Harry the Hustler”, and Doug Turner provides us excellent advice about “making the most” of your website. Philip D. Corso, S.E.C., takes us for a ride down “Creativity Street”, and Bill Stonaker, S.E.C., CCIM defines the “New Normal” as “Change”.
Don Dobroski, S.E.C., is featured in In the Spotlight . Lance Warner, S.E.C., 2009 President of the S.E.C. Education Foundation, reports on the expansion goals of the foundation. The History Files continue to amaze with “Questions and Answers with Richard Reno”, which was written 34 years ago and is just as relevant today. Cliff Weaver outlines strategies for you to “Build Your Estate”.
Our national sponsor, Bill Exeter, Exeter 1031 Exchange Services, LLC, keeps us up to date on issues that concern our marketplace.
