This time I talked to Sam Menda, from Lisbon, Portugal. Sam is Founder of See Real Estate and prior to founding Seed, Sam had been working for 17 years in the film and advertisement industry for some of the biggest brands in the world.

He then founded Seed Real Estate with his best friend Eden at the beginning of 2021. Being Turkish, Israeli, and Portuguese, Sam knows the importance of being international in this digital world.

On Thursday, I had the honour to talk to Teresa Rabenberg Grobecker from San Francisco, California.

Teresa is CEO of Real Estate Consortia (REC) which has the patent pending blockchain title token for every piece of real estate in the United States.

Teresa founded Grobecker Holland International, the first online real estate brokerage in San Francisco, in 2012.

In June 2018, Teresa merged GHI into US Capital Global, an investment bank where she also performs investment banking duties.

Teresa gives us an overview of the real estate market in San Francisco, its development and talks about her impressive career from childhood to present.

She then walks us through dynamics in the US- and global real estate market and where the MLS system lacks proper security measurements for various stakeholders: home buyers, home owners, mortgage companies and real estate agents.

Therefore, she decided to launch Real Estate Consortia which helps to overcome those obstacles by putting transactions on a common blockchain ledger.

It is great to see that she is bootstrapping her platform, too and as a solo-founder myself happy to create more visibility for her solution.

So, please check out her website to find out more about her solution: https://consortia.realestate/

This time I had the opportunity to talk to Daniel Yepez from Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Daniel is originally from Venezuela and lived a long time in the United States and has now been living in Costa Rica for about 20 years. He primarily worked in several sectors, such as real estate and biofuels as well as the Costa Rica News. He obtained the Award of the Top 25 Global Energy Entrepreneur selected by SHELL OIL and ran a successful real estate company promoting Costa Rica as a destination to buy real estate along a team of 100 people conducting calls and promoting this country.

In 2008, Daniel decided to make a cut in his life and started Resonance, which was inspired by his desire to create a space for those already awakened or on the path and looking to integrate that awakening, as well as to those on the precipice of a new perception of the world. Resonance is located on the Pacific Coast close to Los Pargos at Playa Lagarto and is a co-living ad co-working space with several boungalows, swimming pools and various activities to get closer to nature and to find innerpeace. As Daniel well describes, Resonance is a place which welcomes everyone who is seeking to find innerpeace and to search for it from within. The way to become part of the resonance movemet can be multifold and there are a lot of options to either be a guest or to collaborate via work exchange or to become part of the community: from spending days or weeks on a retreat, to contribute, or to invest and become a partner.

It was a very insightful and inspirational episode where Daniel talks not only about enlightment and the relationship to nature, food, and the mind but also gives very precious insights about epigenetics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigenetics) and dimethyltryptamine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N,N-Dimethyltryptamine).

The mission of Resonance is "to clear the mind, understand the gifts in our emotions and heal the imbalance in the body so we can choose the path of personal transformation and serve the world with greater clarity and compassion."

We encourange you to find out more about resonance here: https://www.resonancecr.com/the-resonance-movement

Today we talked to David I Hill from Westborough, Massachusetts who shares his sales leadership lessons and gives us an overview about the top techniques of selling and a quick overview of the real estate in Westborough, Massachusetts.

David Hill is a leading expert on telephone prospecting. Over the past 28 years, he has worked as a salesperson in numerous industries and depended primarily on the phone to make sales. When other salespeople have switched to email or social media to reach contacts, David has stayed true to the communication medium of his roots. In doing so, he’s invested approximately 30,000 hours talking to prospects on the phone, which is equivalent to a triple master’s degree in phone prospecting.

David’s experience selling over the phone started as a kid when he took his first job as a telemarketer. He quickly learned that what seemed to be a frustrating and difficult job for his peers came surprising easy for him. After his second telemarketing job, David helped build a magazine called Condo Media, where he spent most of his day cold-calling businesses to sell advertising.

David has spent much of his sales career in real estate, a highly competitive selling industry. In his first year at Keller Williams in 2002, David sold 42 homes through phone prospecting, far surpassing the average of only six homes per rep. In 2006, David founded Hill Team Associates, a sales division under KW, where he currently serves as CEO.

This is where he realized his passion for helping salespeople improve their skills to advance their careers. David’s drive and talent have enabled him to rise through the ranks of KW where he is now a member of the Gary Keller Private Mastermind, which is comprised of the top 100 agents, who get to mastermind with Gary, 4 times a year. He is one of only 100 certified National Instructors who are paid to teach at a national level—a major achievement considering the 127,000 agents at KW. KW University was awarded #1 Training Organization in 2015 by Training Magazine in 2015.

You can reach out to him via his website:

Today we are talking to Pamela J. Goodwin from Plano, Dallas Texas, commercial real estate agent and broker in Texas.

Plano is a city close to Dallas and has been one very favorite area to live in due to its proximity to Dallas, its high living standard, fantastic education, and great job opportunities. It is one of those destinations people choose when they decide to leave California and decide to move to Texas for better lifestyle and value for money.  

Pamela has vast experience in commercial real estate in Texas and guides us through the mechanics of the land purchase and the market dynamics of such.  It definitely was an amazing and insightful interview and helped me a lot to get a notion of what commercial real estate is about along the dynamics between the different stakeholders which all play an important role along the real estate development phase.

Overview of the Real Estate Buying Process in Panama

  1. Welcome

It is increasingly common that someone wants to buy real estate in a different country than his or her origin or residence, either for business purposes or for living. Therefore, we, HalloCasa strive to provide reliable information to our readers which also entails the specification of how the buying process works in detail.

According to the Panamanian Constitution, any foreigner has the right to acquire real estate in this country, except for the areas close to the borders to Colombia and Costa Rica (10 miles from the border).

  1. You like a property

We are glad to see that you are interested in a property published on HalloCasa. On HalloCasa, you will be able to use a lot of tools in order to understand the process of how to buy a property, in addition to obtaining general information about it. You will also find documents and additional available information, allowing you to investigate in detail the environment and infrastructure of the property, thus facilitating the process.

If you like a property and are interested to learn more about it, one of the first steps should be to research in the public registry office to confirm that the property is free of mortgage liens or limitations that may affect the process.

  1. Contact the seller

In Panama, property sales are made in two ways: directly through the owners or intermediaries such as real estate brokers. HalloCasa will indicate the language in which you can communicate with each respective contact person. Most agents speak English, but if you need a translator, you will also be able to find those on HalloCasa.

  1. You will receive detailed information on the property

The seller will send you all the necessary and available documents to you. However a visit to the property could be of interest to you. If you need help with travel arrangements, you can contact “Experts” directly via HalloCasa who are open to advise you at the time you contact them.

  1. You negotiate the contract and the purchase price

Contract negotiations are usually processes in which both sides gradually approach each other. It is important to note that in Panama specific conditions apply to the sales contract, so it will be useful to know its details. For example, you can read about additional purchase costs in our FAQs below, which might be interesting for you.

  1. You sign the contract and make payment

You are about to acquire your property! You sign the contract, either personally in Panama or through an authorized representative in Panama. In HalloCasa you will find information about notaries whom you can contact. Read our detailed buying process below of how to buy real estate in Panama.

  1. You become the owner of the property

Your property is now registered on your name in the Public Land Registry Department of Panama. Congratulations! You acknowledge that this country has great potential and believe this is a promising country. We are happy for you! Enjoy your property!
