Brady & Kosofsky, PA

**INNOVATE OR DIE** No matter what corner of the Real Estate and Finance Industry you occupy, one thing is undeniable: change is coming, and more is on the horizon. As government forces work to make "home ownership affordable," there is a widening gap between real savings and simply making the process *cheaper*. While it may appear that costs are being cut, the true consequences of these "savings" won't be felt until much later. From the GSEs pushing to erode the protections provided by Title Insurance, to the ripple effects caused by the NAR settlement, today's lower fees could pave the way for tomorrow’s financial disaster. When the economic landscape shifts, homeowners who opted for a "cheaper" closing will find themselves unprotected — without coverage for mistakes or in transactions that weren’t securely managed. That few dollars saved today may come back to haunt stakeholders when consumers, facing foreclosure, realize that the corners cut during closing are now costing them their homes. We've had more than enough downtime. As falling interest rates hint at a potential surge in activity, now is the time to ask: who used this slow period to fortify their business, and who simply coasted? When the floodgates open and business picks up to a frenzied pace, there will be no time for repairs or course corrections. Now is the moment to strengthen your foundation — because when the volume spikes and the industry is drinking from a firehose, the businesses that prepared will be the ones that survive and thrive.

What in the world does BK Law do in the Motorsports World. - Well, its a long story but here is a very short version. When you grow up in Terre Haute Indiana racing gets into your system, and it never leaves. I grew up hanging on the fence at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, I used to skip out of class in high school and always ended up in Indy. Before going to law school, I worked on the Trackside Production Team at the local CBS Affiliate WTHI. Then I became a photographer for Winston Cup Scene on the NASCAR side, and I shot for Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and at events across the country before I was forced to go to law school. (another story for another time) After law school I hung my shingle and began representing NASCAR drivers, teams, sponsors, manufacturers, and venues. I draft Drivers Contracts, Sponsor Contracts, Licening Agreements, and corporate formation. My real estate business took over for a while, but I have always maintained my small client base in the industry I grew up in. Today I continue to grow this practice, and I enjoy photography at many racing events. I learned the racing business from many of the same minds that shaped the sport and built it to what it is today. Many years ago I even litigated within motorsports. I had clients who expected me to enforce what I wrote. It took me a while to figure out that I could refer that business to someone better suited for adverse proceedings. So, when you see me talking real estate--- I am still doing it. And when you hear me talking racing, I will always be involved. I am blessed to have had such success in both areas of my practice and look forward to working with everyone in both industries for years to come.
