I'd like to work with Condo Hotel Center. How can I check you out, Joel Greene, and prove to myself and my wife, that you and your company are reputable?

I welcome these kind of questions. Personally, I'm very easy to check out. Just Google my name, "Joel Greene" or "Joel Greene Condo Hotels." You'll find plenty of references to me, plus well over 100 articles I've written and articles in which I've been quoted. These are articles in publications like The New York Times and the Wall St. Journal. Here's a recent list of publications to which I've provided interviews and/or information on condo hotels:

• USA Today
• Wall Street Journal
• The New York Times
• The International Herald Tribune
• CNN/Money Online
• The Miami Herald
• Vacation Ownership magazine
• The Orlando Sentinel
• Hotel Business
• The Orlando Business Journal
• Travel & Leisure
• Luxury Living Magazine
• The Chicago Tribune
• Associated Press
• Real Profits newsletter
• Business Week
• Smart Money.com
• The New York Post
• The Robb Report
• Dow Jones Real Estate Journal
• Florida Travel & Life
• Consumer Digest
• Go Trans Airways
• ConventionSouth magazine
• Business 2.0 magazine
• Forbes Magazine
• The Washington Post
• MSNBC.com
• Wall St. Journal Europe

Closer to home, I've been a member of the Miami Beach and Greater Miami Board of Realtors for over 20 years, serving on their Grievance Committee and their Professional Standards and Ethics Committees for about 10 of those years. My father/broker/partner, Sheldon Greene, (feel free to Google him too), is a trustee of the Miami Beach Board of Realtors, having been a member since 1970 and has served as a professional mediator in many real estate-related disputes as well as an expert witness in many real estate-related trials. He has an impressive 35+ year history in the real estate world. If you are interested, you can read more about Sheldon Greene and Joel Greene here. And if you want further information on us and our company, don't hesitate to ask. We'll answer any questions, and we have plenty of documents not posted on our website that we will gladly provide to give you additional background on Condo Hotel Center. Finally, I would ask you to consider this one thought: Would somebody go through the trouble to build a 600+ page website like Condo Hotel Center's to position himself as an expert on condo hotels just so that one day he could scam people? That's an awful lot of work for someone who isn't truly committed to providing quality information, professional guidance and personalized service to his clients.

The above question was submitted via e-mail by a visitor to www.condohotelcenter.com. The answer was prepared by Joel Greene, a licensed real estate broker with Condo Hotel Center which specializes in the sale of condo hotel units and fractional ownerships in private residence clubs.
