EXIT Realty of Daytona will host Realtor Boot Camp with Real Estate Veteran Aug. 19-21

DAYTONA BEACH – Alex Szinegh – a nationally-known, self-taught real estate guru – will present a Real Estate Boot Camp for Realtors next month in Daytona Beach.

The unique, three-day, hands-on training program will be presented Aug. 19-21 at the St. Demetrios banquet hall located at 129 N. Halifax Ave. in Daytona (32118), according to Aswin Suri, owner of EXIT Realty of Daytona, the innovative real estate firm hosting the event.

“This is the only one of this kind in North America,” Suri said of the riveting type of seminar that Szinegh – EXIT’s senior regional vice president – presents. “Agents have the oppurtunity to be trained as a top producer for less than $100 a day.”

Included will be instruction on interactive prospecting, handling objections, scripts, role playing and goal setting. Szinegh will help those attending lay a foundation to attain wealth in real estate, as well as their own attitude and lifestyle, Suri explained.

With English as his second language and a 10th grade education under his belt, Szinegh quickly grasped the art of selling real estate and has consistently received more than $500,000 annually in commissions during his 25-year career.

His personal accomplishments, according to Suri, include selling more than 2,100 homes in a 19-year period.

“He’s a fascinating and dynamic presenter and a brilliant entrepreneur who teaches others how to use his knowledge, skills and experience to master their own real estate careers,” Suri added.

Those interested in registering or receiving more details about the Aug. 19-21 session, are asked to contact Arlene Ferro at EXIT Realty of Daytona, 386-257-3948 or Arlene@EXITrealtyofdaytona.com.

EXIT Realty of Daytona Hosts National Power Selling Seminar That Draws More than 130 Realtors

EXIT Realty of Daytona Hosts National Power Selling Seminar That Draws More than 130 Realtors

DAYTONA BEACH – Realtors who attended a recent Power Selling seminar at Aswin Suri’s EXIT Realty of Daytona got a lot of bang for no bucks.

The session, titled Power Selling 101–Mindset 2009, was offered free to the more than 130 Realtors who attended the daylong event, which included an afternoon catered lunch and an evening wine and cheese mixer, according to Suri, owner of EXIT Realty of Daytona.

“We had an amazing turnout with Realtors from nearly every brokerage in town,” he said.

“There also were several Realtors here from out of town offices.”

The Power Selling seminar – which was presented in June by EXIT Founder and CEO Steve Morris – typically costs $500 per person. But, because Suri wanted to share the information with as many Realtors as possible, his company picked up the check for those attending.

Morris, the mastermind behind the EXIT system of selling real estate, packed a week’s worth of valuable information into the eight-hour session which Suri describes as the “apprenticeship of the EXIT training program.”

With more than 32 years of real estate experience in both management and sales training, and a background in life insurance and the stock market, Morris is known as one of the most knowledgeable and effective real estate coaches in the industry, Suri added.

“Steve offered detailed information on topics like the psychology of selling, canvassing for business and setting and achieving goals,” Suri said. “It was the kind of information that can be used by everyone; from top producers to those just entering the market.”

Those interested in more information on Power Selling 101 or the EXIT system of selling real estate, may contact Suri or Natali Levine for details at 386-257-3948.

Veteran Malpractice Lawyer Named Partner in Volusia County Personal-Injury Firm

PORT ORANGE, Fla. – Attorney Kim E. Bouck has been made a partner at Rue & Ziffra, a 25-year-old Volusia County law firm with offices in Orange City and Port Orange.

Bouck specialized in medical malpractice cases for more than 20 years before joining the personal injury firm in 2005, according to firm President Allan L. Ziffra.

But, her previous expertise was in representing health care providers and insurance companies instead of injured plaintiffs, he said.

“Kim’s knowledge and experience from the opposite side of the courtroom – as well as her understanding of both side’s strategies – have proved invaluable to our firm and to our clients these past three-and-a-half years,” Ziffra said.

With a bachelor’s degree from University of West Florida and a juris doctor degree from Loyola University New Orleans College of Law, Bouck is a member of the Volusia County Bar Association, the Florida Bar and the Florida Justice Association.

About Rue & Ziffra:

Founded by John D. Rue and Allan L. Ziffra, the personal-injury law firm of Rue & Ziffra has served the Central Florida community for more than 25 years. The firm’s commitment to its profession and its clients has earned it a reputation as one of the top personal-injury law firms in Central Florida. Known for handling everything from automobile and motorcycle accidents to medical malpractice, wrongful death, and social security and disability cases, the firm has recovered millions of dollars for injured clients and their families. With a staff of eight attorneys, Rue & Ziffra maintains offices in Port Orange and Orange City.
