Luxury Real Estate Conferences are a mix of technology, markets and expertise and always looking for win-win situations. When we talk about expertise, Saul Cohen is probably one of the best brokers you can talk to. I first met him in Valencia in 2013, but it was in Seattle this year when I could spend some time talking with him. We were mainly talking about the markets, and afterwards I had the feeling that every single word I had heard was so important.
