I was at the Luxury Portfolio International Conference in Las Vegas a few weeks ago (a great Insta follow by the way).  Beside the amazing meal I had at Delilah (and the killer speakeasy vibe!), I learned a little about some design trends that, once I heard, I can’t un-hear.  Perhaps you’d like to hearRead more

  Imagine that you learn that the gas in your building will be turned off due to a leak.  Not only that, but it’s likely going to stay off for at least six months.  Based on what you know, that could easily become a year, or longer. Well, this happens in New York City apartments,Read more

Adventures in Desperation I don’t cover it much, but it’s sometimes nice to touch on the rental market from time to time.  Why talk about it today?  A few reasons: The rental market is bananas.

It’s Almost Spring We’ve spoken about the momentary bump in the road, the uncertainty surrounding the last gasps of the pandemic.  We have midtown buildings which are being repurposed, such as this new campus for Touro College being announced.  Two years into the pandemic, there is plenty of focus on the future of Midtown.  WhileRead more

The Real Scourge: Open Permits Slowly Down Deals in New York City

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | January 28, 2022 | 0

When I’m pitching ideas to news outlets… the advice that I’ve been is that they want trends.  For something to be considered a trend, I had better find at least three examples.  It seems safer to use the rule of three (which also applies to comedy) for the confirmation of a trend, so I haveRead more

What is the one thing that markets don’t seem to like?

The Double Deuce – A Seller’s Market, Not A Test

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | December 24, 2021 | 0

The Double Deuce I remember when I was nearly a college graduate, and my birthday rolled around.  22!  The double deuce!  Somehow 22 felt much more substantial than 21.  And so it goes for 2022 vs 2021.  This year, as fun and rollicking as its been for real estate, has felt fleeting.  Everyone’s been waitingRead more
