About 250 senior-level real estate executives are expected to attend the half-day event at the Westin Buckhead at 3391 Peachtree Rd. Isakson will be the keynote speaker for the event, followed by "Inside the Real Estate Mind of Hal Barry" by Barry Real Estate chairman Hal Barry.

"RealShare Atlanta is really covering all the bases--the political season and growing unease about the economy with Sen. Johnny Isakson, hearing a local legends' views on both today's market and how it compares to the past in Hal Barry, and focusing on the future and how to quantify the cost benefit of the green and sustainable design movement," comments Richard Kelley, executive director of the RealShare Conference Series.

On a local scale, the event will feature "Town Hall Meeting on the State of the Atlanta Market" moderated by CB Richard Ellis senior managing director Brett Hunsaker. Among panelists will be Marcus & Millichap vice president, regional manager John Leonard; Dean Patterson, of Behringer Harvard; and the Alter Group senior vice president Todd Yates.

Following the town meeting will be a session called "Capturing the Value of Green: Sustainable Development Update" with Transwestern senior vice president Greg O'Brien.

"Couple all that with an overriding focus and theme of how to manage around the credit and liquidity crunch, and figure out the rules of the new marketplace and RealShare Atlanta is an event not to be missed," Kelley says. "In today's marketplace it has never been more important to be informed and well-networked, and RealShare Atlanta is a great place to do both."

The RealShare Conference Series is produced Real Estate Media, publishers of GlobeSt.com as well as a group of print publications including Real Estate Forum and Real Estate Florida.
