Online WalkThru just completed a two week stint out West. We had the privilege of attending the CEO Exchange in Sedalia, CO and Inman Connect in San Francisco, CA. One interesting segment at the Inman conference was Trulia's Jamie Glenn discussing the Top 50 Online Ways to Market Real Estate.

We had wonderful intentions of posting each and every one of these, but alas the work waiting at home made it impossible. Well, thanks to the Inman blog and Jamie Glenn, the presentation was posted online for all to benefit from. (Of course we'd love to see a list like this for luxury). But kudos to Trulia and Inman for teaming up on this information.

From her start in the travel industry to her success in the Manhattan residential real estate market, Jacky Teplitzky tells us her story on the latest Vox One episode.

Fresh off our trip to Sedalia Colorado for the CEO Exchange, Online WalkThru is heading back out west for Inman Connect in San Francisco.

Held at The Palace Hotel in downtown San Francisco, this event always draws a large contingent from both the real estate and technology sectors. With new players entering the market each day, Connect is an opportunity to take a look at some of the emerging technologies and see what kind of impact they may have in the near future.

This year Online WalkThru's Lathe Poland will be a guest panelist on one of the Innovation Tracks - Digital Video: Adding Dimension that Works. Stay tuned for this and other coverage from Inman Connect SF.

Set on over four acres, this home offers European ambiance and over 6000 square feet.

Westport, CT is a beautiful community with a village right on the water and close proximity to New York City. It certainly falls in the category of a luxury market and real estate competition is plentiful. So how has top producer Michelle Genovesi thrived in the Westport market for over 20 years?
