The city is home to numerous Fortune 500 companies, leading healthcare and research institutions, and a thriving art and cultural scene.

Like the ones i have owned over the years.. we just had like minded top producing agents that came to us after already established and did not want to work in the corporate culture anymore and short of starting their own gig  would come to a firm like ours.. mainly all builder developer flippers  investment property guys/gals

So if I set myself up to be an elite property manager, I figure I have two exit strategies, either just train people to do it for me under my own company, and hold them to my same cultural and productivity standards....or if I do go with another company I'll be able to confidently pick a fellow elite manager to do so.  

@Max Alford I think this is a really interesting question (and more complex than it might seem at first glance).A car can say a lot about a person (both good and bad), and there are a whole variety of car cultures that all have different traits.Weirdly, a car that's perfect for one realtor might be bad for another realtor, because a single car elicits different reactions in different contexts.For instance, if you show up in a Ferrari to show me (an investor) a standard $300k 1500 sq ft 3/2 in a C-class area, I'll think your car is totally out of place, and it will throw up tons of red flags.

this is where you have to admire other cultures especially Asian they dont kick the parents to the curb they bring them home to live their life under their roof..  

You mention culture.

@Gustavo DelgadoIf you are in Texas or Florida right now expect significant increases in floridaWhile everyone has been celebrating home price increases, everything else has gone up significantly as well - and with labor and construction cost increases insurance is replacement value and they anticipate greater storms so it was inevitable.

It's certainly more long term focused than the flipping and refinancing (almost impossible in France) culture in the US. 

The area boasts an array of major employment centers, universities and hospitals, as well as a diverse cultural landscape.

I missed experiencing other cultures.
