I SURVIVED REAL ESTATE 2025

Industry insiders focus on what's ahead for 2025-2026

The Norris Group Presents: The 18th Annual I Survived Real Estate – LIVE at the Nixon Presidential Library

We’re back! The Norris Group’s award-winning black-tie gala, I Survived Real Estate, returns for its 18th year—LIVE from the Nixon Presidential Library. Since 2008, this event has raised over $1 million for Make-A-Wish, and we’re not slowing down.

This year’s backdrop?


 A California housing market still starved for inventory, mortgage rates hovering above comfort zones, affordability hitting generational lows, inflation and tariffs. Add in global uncertainty, sticky inflation, and the ever-watchful eye of the Federal Reserve—and you’ve got a landscape full of questions.

  • Inventory Drought: California’s housing supply remains critically low
  • Rate Pressure: Mortgage rates linger well above buyer comfort zones
  • Priced Out: Affordability has collapsed to generational lows
  • Global Tensions: War, tariffs, and instability rattle investor confidence
  • Inflation’s Grip: Costs remain stubbornly high, squeezing margins
  • Tariff Troubles: Rising import costs could ripple through construction and development
  • All Eyes on the Fed: Every rate hint could send shockwaves through the market

As always, our expert panel will feature some of the brightest minds in economics, investing, and housing, ready to tackle challenges we didn’t even know we’d have to face—and to help us all prepare for what’s next.

Leading up to the event, The Norris Group Podcast will spotlight both local and national voices shaping the market. If you’re a real estate investor, 2025 is not the year to sit back and watch—it’s a year to be engaged, informed, and ready.

I Survived Real Estate was born out of a crisis. Our mission remains: to unite thought leaders, serve a meaningful cause, and prepare our industry to navigate whatever comes next.

Craig Evans is the CEO of DBL Unlimited and Bruce Norris a man who needs two pages of a bio to be read. I don't think we need a big introduction for either of these men. No, not today. Bruce Norris is a hard money lender

Bruce Norris:

No, we don't need it. investor.

Joey Romero:

So anyway, so we want to just, we're bringing back. I Survived. First of all, it's September 12. Everybody go get your individual tickets and sponsors, thank you. And we're still looking, we still have room for some more sponsors. So so please, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out Joey@thenorrisgroup, or give me a call, 951-823-8266, but that out of the way, this question, the first question is for both of you, and I don't care what answers the first, but how would you describe I Survived Real Estate to somebody who is new in the industry?

Bruce Norris:

All right, I'll take that on first. I think it's, it was very unusual. Was Aaron's brainchild, and Aaron came from a background of kind of understanding, what was acceptable to groups of people that were in kind of the category of the guests we wanted to attract, and to do it in a nonprofit way, was the ticket. And so when he approached me, he said, 'Would you mind having an event where people came for free, The Norris Group absorbed all the cost, and then I think it would open the door to attract the top people of each little sector of the real estate industry'. And it was true. So Doug Duncan, you know, has come for all these years, and it started because of it being a charity event. And so we were able to track that first year, the president of the Mortgage Bankers Association, The Appraisal Institute, and remember at that time, what was the year the first one like 2006 or seven?

Joey Romero:

2008 I'm gonna ask you about that a little bit.

Bruce Norris:

So it's even, so is in the middle of all this, these problems. And so one of the things that I did when I introduced, well, I kind of introduced the audience to the panel. I said, 'Okay, if anybody's a real estate investor? Could you stand up?' And of course, 400 people stood up. And I looked at the panelists, and I just wanted you to know what a real investor looked like, because the mood toward investors was so negative, it was a little hard to imagine 400 of them looking like they're going to a prom date. But there we were, and what happened over time is that event, in that event, the panelists, who probably knew each other, started learning to trust each other more and more, and so we had really great conversations and really great batting it around instead of just, I have this stance, and, you know, that's the way it is. So it was a great brainchild, and it's been, it's been a great event, and a lot of smart people have been on the panel. So it's been a lot of fun.

Joey Romero:

So Craig, how would you describe I Survived Real Estate to this maybe somebody in Florida, or somebody brand new, who called you up and said, Hey, what is this charity event you

Craig Evans:

You know, this will be my fourth year. Being guys are doing? involved with, I Survived, and really had no clue what to expect four years ago walking into this event, other than, you know, knowing you guys, obviously everything that had recently happened with Aaron and, you know, the whole process of life there and so so I had no clue what to expect. And walking in and being in an environment of investors, of business men and women throughout the country, you know, just an unbelievable channel of speakers that were willing to pour into investors, and to see the camaraderie between the two, was amazing to see, you know, and it's interesting to see, you know, Bruce, you talked about the first year you were introducing all of these high powered people, "of that the world recognizes as high power", to what everyday investors look like on the street and, and you know, me not experiencing that. I'm coming in just four years ago, and to see the camaraderie of all these people, of people that have come every year and know these people, and they've developed this bond in this relationship that they get to talk about, what the last year, the coming year, of this industry that we're all passionate about, that we love to see them interact. It was pretty amazing. It was it was a whole different level of something I'd never experienced to see that type of interaction. That's gone between between somebody on the street and somebody in Washington and somebody in those types of positions, pretty incredible to see.

Joey Romero:

Okay, so this question is for Bruce. Why is it called, I Survived Real Estate?

Bruce Norris:

Well, if you were in 2008, you were 2008 with real estate issues, right? So that's why, yeah, I Survived Real Estate was not a tongue in cheek. It was like the worst case scenario where, in California, you know, our prices were headed down by 50%, 70% of what was in the MLS was a lender owned property, and there wasn't a lot of hope at that point. So I Survived Real Estate. Yeah, that it wasn't tongue in cheek, that was okay, we're facing it down, man. So how do we, yeah, how do we go from here? And how do we get, maybe, the cooperation of these people in charge? You know, one of the things that I suggested at the time, of course, it wasn't accepted, but we had been contacted by Wall Street, and they invited me to a dinner, a three hour dinner, and offered me billions of dollars to buy the REOs for them. And after that, we had the I Survived event, and I suggested a nothing down loan program. Now that's after the disaster of the price hit. Had that occurred, though, you would have changed America, because they would have bought a house for nothing down the idea was you have one loan program. It's not 50 state laws. It's one loan program, nothing down. And if by chance, they get six months behind, you hold an auction. You don't go back to the lender. It gets bought by whoever is the high bid, and that's the end of that. So there were no way you could have REOs. But at the time, we suggested that the prices were 50% off and the interest rates were great. You would have changed millions of people going from renter to homeowner with one decision, and that's one thing I did learn about Washington, DC, and Doug Duncan has invited me back there five times, probably the last time being an hour and a half meeting with the CEO of Fannie Mae. But it's hard to do practical things sometimes. And anyway, so did I answer your question? I think so I Survived was, yeah, that was a time where a lot of people were upside down by 50%.

Joey Romero:

So if you were in the room, you literally survived what has happened. So, all right, so...

Craig Evans:

I'm working, we're trying to figure out how to survive.

Joey Romero:

Yeah.

Craig Evans:

At that moment.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah, a lot of people, you know, since we had written that report called the California Crash, I had sold everything I own, so I'll see all later, except my residents. I did that intentionally, by the way. I didn't want to be a

Joey Romero:

the first panel, because I know you don't renter. remember the first panel. Because you just said that we had people that were on this. I actually have the list of everybody who was on the first panel. I wanted to go back and for the show, look at the very first 2008 I Survived Real Estate. And so this will bring you back Bruce. So we had Rick Sharga from RealtyTrac.

Bruce Norris:

Right.

Joey Romero:

Philip Tirone The Mortgage Equity Group, Annemaria Allen from The Compliance Group, Richard Lambros from The California Building Industry Association. Joel Singer from the California Association of Realtors. Tommy Williams, from the National Auctioneers Association.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah.

Joey Romero:

And Christopher Thornberg hit one of your favorites from Beacon Economics.

Bruce Norris:

Okay, you're right. Yeah, that did change the next year.

Joey Romero:

Yes. And so over the years, Bruce, what has this event evolved to come to mean to you?

Bruce Norris:

What I've seen that's been outstanding is trust has grown, that there's willingness to discuss things that are usually not discussed honestly. How do we get from here to here? And I think the over the years, the panel has learned to trust each other, and they've really come, you know, sometimes they have some really great discussions, you know, at a very high level, so they understand how it worked behind the door. And when they come up with some stuff, it's really saying, 'You know what, if we did this, or could we do this?' It's just, I could tell that they relaxed, which with each other over the years, and it became more beneficial for the audience to hear true opinions, rather than like a stick statement. So if you go and there's a presentation they gave everywhere, that's not what happened anymore. It was really just discussions about the issues. And, you know, it was really a great privilege to be, usually, the one of the people that were asking the questions. And I think trust grew about our intent too. You know, we weren't trying to catch somebody. We were trying to say, Okay, how do we solve this stuff, or how do we go from here? And, you know, make housing better for for investors, partly, but also, you know, homeowners, too. I'm a big fan of owning a residence, obviously, and so I think that's, I think that's an important piece of for me, a man's life. I literally cried when my when I mowed my first lawn on a $20,000 house where I couldn't open the windows because my name was on a grant deed. And that made me a man in my eyes, I'm actually feeling it today. That's a little weird after as many houses as I touched.

Joey Romero:

Craig, this question is for you, so sort of along the same lines, but I want you to take a little step further. So what does I Survive Real Estate mean to you, and why is it so important for you to continue to do this event?

Craig Evans:

Well, you know, Joey, you touched on it earlier that the name of our, of everything we do, especially with, with our parent company of DBL Unlimited, you know, is DouglasBrooke legacy. And really it's, for me, I think it's process of, I'm not interested in doing things if we don't really leave a legacy behind that matters. There's a lot of surface level things that I think people do in life that really, at the end of the day, just don't matter. And and when I first came to I Survived Real Estate and saw the camaraderie that was made, the trust that was made between individuals and business men and women in trusting the process and trusting each other. That was something that, I really fell in love with that. You know, two years later, now, you know, Bruce and I are talking, and I buy The Norris Group and, and one of the things that hit me is, okay, do I carry I Survived on, you know? And you know, even that first year the as we were approaching a few months from me, actually, you know, Bruce and I closing on the deal and, and me becoming the owner we, we held the last I Survived in 2023 and it was unknown, really, if we were going to carry it on and, and for me, it was the process of, wait a minute, if we really talked about that, our company is about leaving a legacy. Then we need to approach, then what is the legacy that I Survived has started, and how do we continue that And what does that look like? So again, Joey, you know, you know my stance on children and kids in this world and you know my heart for that, and my wife's heart for that. So for me, it's a process to say, wait a minute, we get to have one evening. As Bruce said, we get to dress up and look like we're going to the prom, and we get to have a great meal, have a good time, kind of the CNBC of our industry, but yet, we get to learn from some of the brightest minds in the country. We get to be surrounded with other people that can encourage us when we've had a hard year, or we're coming into a hard year, things like that, but at the same time to be able to say, hey, we are blessed in a country, in an industry where we can make as much money as we want to be able to make, but to turn around and then do something with that that actually matters, not that just doesn't pan our pocketbook, that doesn't line the pocketbooks of others, but do something for kids that actually matters. That's what this means to me. It is, you know, JoeY, you've heard me talk about, I'm unashamed. I want us to raise as much money as we can, not so that we have a great evening, but so that we can do as much as we can do for kids. Yeah, I will unashamedly raise sponsorships and push for that so that we can do as much as we can do for kids. I love that process. I love getting to be around people. I love getting to talk what we do. I love getting to, you know, we talked about pivoting last year. You know that that was one of the big things that we've been talking about for a few years. Bruce you and I've been talking about that for three years now, of prepping to pivot as things were coming and all of a sudden, it turns out, unbeknownst to me, that that's part of what everybody was was preaching from the stage so so talking about things that matter and helping great. It's phenomenal. But at the end of the night to know that we've raised more money to help children that actually need help, yeah, I'll do that over and over and over again, to know that that's the end result.

Joey Romero:

So now that you've been associated with Norris Group and our event, who has been your favorite past panelist?

Bruce Norris:

Don't mention me, Craig. It's okay.

Craig Evans:

So so I think I would. Oh, I would. I'm probably a little bit of a nerd about finance, and that's okay, but I think in that process, I would probably say Doug Duncan in that role, and it's because he's able to walk on stage and be in one of The most respected roles of finance in the country, and and carry on a predictive role. Is before he retired from that role, carry on a predictive role in what he did, and yet, step on stage and have a conversation and and to everybody in the audience, it feels like he's the guy that lives next door to you, and you're just having a conversation. It, he's able to communicate in a way that brings that to real life, and doesn't leave it up on charts and paper and that for I think from that aspect, it would probably be Doug Duncan.

Joey Romero:

Bruce. What about you? Who's your favorite fast panelist? You got a little more history?

Craig Evans:

Yeah, that's cheating.

Bruce Norris:

I would say it's the same person, because he's so well respected in the industry. And he also gave investors a voice in Washington, DC. That was very unusual, so he could use his influence to get me in front of Fannie Mae CEO for hour and a half. What I mean that's he thought that we've brought something to the table, that he wanted Fannie Mae to create a loan program for. You know, they're maxed at four. Lawrence, well, wait a minute. Like this whole crowd is filled with really bright people that are never going to default on a loan and could use 50 of them. Could we open our eyes and see that? That's what he was doing for us? You know what? It hasn't happened yet. Oddly enough, you know, it's just the nature of the progression. But he opened doors, obviously, for us to have conversations that would would have never happened. So our industry got heard by, I mean, think who was on that panel listening to investors, you know? I mean, the top person of every piece of industry eventually was on that panel,

Joey Romero:

Yeah, and both you guys said, somebody who just, he's such a a data nerd with just a great personality. And for me, that's what Aaron was, too.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah.

Joey Romero:

Like a guy who could just break down and really get in the weeds of the data, but explain it to a four year old and make them have fun doing it, you know. And I think Doug Duncan's cut of the same cloth or Aaron was kind of the same cloth as Doug. So okay, so next question, this one's for Bruce. Now, the other thing you didn't remember about the first one, these were all canned presentations. You were just introducing somebody else to come to the podium, and they gave you your presentation, and it was, there was six of these. So when did you guys make the decision to go to a panel and make it more of a like you're interviewing them?

Bruce Norris:

I think it probably was the next year?

Joey Romero:

Right away.

Bruce Norris:

I think it was pretty quickly, because I could see that that wasn't what I wanted the audience to be exposed to.

Joey Romero:

It felt seminar-ish.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah. Well, of course they have, you know, they do that same speech they do for everywhere. Now, I will admit it took a little while for them to warm up to the question they wasn't expecting, right? They have a canned presentation. It's pretty safe. There's 10 minutes of what I know, later, well, now there's nothing that you said. Let me ask you a question, maybe a hard one, you know? You know, why can't you loan more than four loans to an investor? Oh, yeah. So that's changed. I think that changed the interaction for the audience too.

Joey Romero:

Did you have a favorite moment from from the past?

Bruce Norris:

You know, I'm gonna, I'm probably gonna forget who it, who it was, but I think there was, like three people with the very top of their world really talking about their opinion on how to solve something, and they were listening to each other. And it was...

Joey Romero:

I think, I know we talked about it. I think it was, it was David Kittle. It was Kittle, Duncan and I think John Burns, like...

Bruce Norris:

Right, okay.

Joey Romero:

On this, on the same panel.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah. I mean, there you go. And they're discussing openly what, what might be would improve things. To have The Norris Group get to do that. I mean, that that was an amazing thing. And, I mean, again, that goes back to Aaron's brainchild, thinking that that was possible from the start. You know, he's always been attracted to charity, so that was, that was the number one thing. But it grew into just the, yeah, the most amazing discussion from high level people that once they got comfortable with each other and the setup, we just had the best discussion because it was all truthful. It wasn't canned, and they didn't know what was coming ever. No one ever got a question. It just, hey, here it is.

Joey Romero:

Craig, what's your favorite moment of your brief history with The Norris Group, and I Survived?

Craig Evans:

Maybe making a complete fool of myself and actually being split psyched about knowing that I you know, it's the Bruce is passing the torch, and I completely forgot to bring up the reason we were there and that.

Joey Romero:

Make-A-Wish.

Craig Evans:

Make-A-Wish. And the fact that, and I know that's not self deprecating, but what I where I'm going with that, is the fact that the group of people that have followed The Norris Group for what 2829 years, were gracious enough to not throw tomatoes at me and laugh me off the stage, but that we laughed and chuckled about it together and and everything goes on. And honestly, that was probably a moment for me where, where there was nothing spectacular that happened, that I thought an answer was great, or things like that. But what it showed me was that okay by investing in and wanting to continue the legacy of The Norris Group, that moment showed me that not only is this based on, I mean, Joey, what do we have in our email list? 7800 people, or something like that? You know, almost 8000 people that follow the Norris group to say, hey, this isn't just a group of people that want to earn money and want to know how to make a living. This is also, there's a real human side to this group of people that they care about who you are. And you know, because I mean, Joey, you and I talked about that a million times, how mortified I was and everything, and it was just like, Yeah, okay, it happened. Let's keep growing, you know. So for me that I think that was a big moment to see that, you know, at that point, already owned The Norris Group, right? But now it was even a bigger understanding of what Bruce and Aaron and you having a big part of had grown this group of people into who they are and the respect for what we do and what the industry is about, that was a special moment for me. At my mistake and at my embarrassment, but it was still a special moment.

Joey Romero:

Yeah, Bruce?

Bruce Norris:

I wanted to add something the reason why Craig Evans is the owner of The Norris Group there too. There were two instances that stood out for me.

Craig Evans:

He told you how smart I was?

Bruce Norris:

We were dealing with a big mess where I had to step in front of some unpaid bills with a million dollars and paid a Subcontractors. And I was meeting a subcontractor about every five minutes. You know, the common statement was, why don't you just hire Craig Evans? Over and over and over again, I'm paying, you know, I'm losing a million dollars because of errors that were made and everybody, I mean, I don't care. It was more than a dozen times zone. 'Do you know Craig Evans? He's a great guy'. Okay, now, okay, that's phase one. A few years ago, we have this terrible hurricane, and Craig is busy doing stuff for our investors. And you know what? I get a phone call. He said, Bruce. He said,'I have to, I have to pull off doing this stuff'. And what he did for the next week was spend countless hours in a boat, saving people's lives, going to get them off of an island. So, you know, he's out there, you know, telling me, you know, he's picking up people that are literally stranded for a few days without food and water, that type of stuff. And he just does that for days and days. Yeah, that was another big moment for me. You know, you don't, you can't kid yourself about being that person.

Joey Romero:

I want to give a big shout out to to to the Florida Boot Camp attendees, because at the same time, you guys are doing all that right after that, you know, with the help of Craig in his church, you know, we got, we activated, also from across the country, and started sending gift cards. And, you know, hey, what do you guys need? And and they really came through. And I don't have the total tally of how much was actually raised, because it was just sent directly to him. We wanted nothing to it. We just gave everybody the opportunity to, hey, if you want to mail a gift card or send some clothes or send some food, that's where it went. And I know for a fact that a lot of our boot camp attendees really pitched in and did a great job helping out too.

Craig Evans:

I'll tell you, I from what we know, we had tracked down there was a little over $10,000 worth of money, goods, things like that, that were given within, like, 10 days, 11 days, from people throughout The Norris Group and and that didn't include, literally, a car full of stuff that Bruce gave, because that was before we knew all this was coming. And you know, so, yeah, that was pretty cool.

Joey Romero:

So Okay, next question is going to be for Bruce, and then I'll have a follow up question for Craig afterwards. Bruce, why was it important for you to start the Rohny award, and why was it fitting to end with Aaron?

Bruce Norris:

Well, it's a very rare occurrence where your life changes in one night, but mine did, and that was Jim Rohn's three hour talk that he didn't want to go to. I did not want to go to it. And in about five minutes, I made a note to my brother, who was with me. I said, 'This man doesn't need our money'. I could tell there was a passion behind what he was talking about. He told a story about a girl scout coming to his door and selling, trying to sell him a $2 box of cookies, and he didn't have $2 but he was embarrassed, and he lied. He said I already bought 10 of them from another girl. And when she left, he cried. He sat on the floor and cried. That was a pivotal moment for him, going, I've had enough of that. And I just, he just won me over with his sincerity. And man, I have the original notes. I have the original book that changed my life. I went home that night from a seminar I didn't think I would go to and wrote, wrote goals all night and changed my life. So the Rohny award was very carefully selected for people that have changed people's lives that did it the right way, that had an absolutely stellar reputation. That's who's Aaron, of course, Aaron, I don't know of a more unselfish person in my life. Though, my favorite thing as a father, it changed. You know, once you're, when you sometimes when you're growing up, you your father introduces you, right?'Hey, this is Aaron, my son'. What was more fun than that, by far, it was going where Aaron had been that I had not been. And every time it's like, oh, you're Aaron Norris's father. Oh, my God, we love him. That was so common. I'm like, holy cow.

Joey Romero:

That was really cool, really, cool to see recently, too, when we did the Aaron Norris Creative Fund Awards.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah, yeah. He's still touching lives, and he just loves people, and he, you know, no way to I'll tell you one last story on the what when he was in the hospital getting treatment. He This was his second visit to the hospital. So he had been through round of chemo, and then it's probably two or three weeks later, round two was so he he had come back. I had dropped him off at the front door. Park of the car came back in, so I was lagging him a few minutes. As I passed by the nursing station, you could tell there was like a buzz going on. And so I listened, and you know, it was 'Aaron Norris is back', and like these people see how many people a day and never will remember anything about them. And Aaron stood out so much that, yeah, and you were in the room where he passed, they decorated it like Christmas for him.

Joey Romero:

was a star at Holiday.

Bruce Norris:

Yeah. I think that's a good, a good award to retire at that point.

Joey Romero:

Well, one of the things that he had on his, you know, the pole where they hang your meds, you know, you're walking around, he had a disco ball on the top of it.

Bruce Norris:

Yes.

Joey Romero:

So Craig that my follow up question is like, have you thought about a different award that we should do?

Craig Evans:

I'll be honest, I have not. I mean, I've kicked that around, but I struggle, you know, as Bruce talked about, is, how do you follow that up? So, you know, but I want us to be honoring people that have gone before us, and people that have done amazing things in our industry.

Joey Romero:

You know, maybe we create the Grand Marshall of the I Survived Real Estate, that'll be the one featured guest, and maybe we could highlight somebody like that.

Craig Evans:

That's been a struggle for me. I've really thought a lot about what award I would want to create. I, you know, I've got an idea, but I haven't confirmed that yet. There's a couple people I want to talk to about getting permission to potentially create it after someone so, yeah.

Joey Romero:

Okay.

Craig Evans:

I'm thinking about that. It won't be this year, but my thoughts are maybe hopefully, we could have that for next year.

Joey Romero:
