Harney Named To LeadingRE Institute Faculty

CHICAGO (July 22, 2009) — Leading Real Estate Companies of the World^® (LeadingRE) has named Steve Harney to its faculty for the LeadingRE Institute, a cutting-edge training resource for member brokerages and their sales associates.  Harney is one of the leading experts in negotiation, market data usage and sales training for residential real estate professionals.

Harney’s 20-year real estate career began as a top performing residential agent before he and a partner steadily built their own 500-agent real estate firm. It was during that process that he established his method for raising average sales agents and managers to the level of top performers. Recognizing this industry-wide need, he founded Steve Harney, Inc. to offer his own brand of training and negotiation seminars.

Harney also authors the popular monthly Keeping Current Matters™ audio visual report for top agents and managers. In the current housing market, he has become one of the most popular speakers at LeadingRE events, using up-to-the-minute market data to help real estate professionals manage rather than react to the market.

“Steve is an outstanding educator whose insights add tremendous value for our members,” said Dan Schmitz, director of broker resources for LeadingRE.  “By assessing and analyzing hundreds of housing news and information sources each week, he summarizes the relevant points that professionals can use immediately, interpreting the market in a manner that sellers and buyers understand.”

Harney is pleased to formalize his relationship with LeadingRE.  “I have enjoyed a long history with LeadingRE and have the highest regard for the network’s brokers, who are true leaders in the industry and the communities they serve.”
