Real estate businesses are no strangers to the need for resilience in the face of adversity. While most may have a gameplan for dealing with unfavorable market conditions or regulatory uncertainty, how many are prepared to weather adversity caused by Mother Nature? In this episode, October Research Chief Knowledge Officer Mary Schuster spoke with Mike LaRosa and Aaron Davis of the Florida Agency Network about their first-hand knowledge of the importance of being prepared for a crisis, having managed to maintain operations through two hurricanes in short succession. The experience of helping clients complete closings on their new homes while they and many of their staff were temporarily displaced from theirs was harrowing, to say the least. Fortunately, they received help as well from the close-knit title business community. Learn from their ordeal how proactive strategies and communication proved crucial to navigating unprecedented challenges.
