When asked about the one thing that has changed real estate in the past 100 years, the answer is always the same – computers. TRREB Member Kenneth LaRoza explains: “When I started in 2003, I was working with an electric typewriter and carbon copy documentation. So, for me, the difficulty was the ever-changing technology that was really adapting the industry as a whole and having to change and adapt with it, you know. I literally went from carbon copies and electric typewriters and working with people with pagers to email documentation, I’ve seen the change to e-signatures, and legislation come through with that.”
