VIDEO: Marketing Real Estate to Women

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | November 27, 2019 | 0

In This Month’s Video I discussed the missed opportunity in New York, that is ignoring more than half of the population here. That is, women! Women are buying properties for themselves. No one is waiting anymore to get married to buy real estate, least of all so many successful women. This includes our many amazingRead more

Lessons Learned from a Month of Facebook Live

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | November 27, 2019 | 0

After 10 years of keeping a monthly newsletter, I have discovered that I still quite like sharing what I’m learning about the real estate market, or from my travels around New York City and the world.

No…not that TV show. With a love of making fun of myself, a curiosity in exploring the New York City real estate market in more depth, and a variety of ways to present what Visionary Brokerage is all about, I’ve accepted the opportunity to be a part of American Dream NYC.

Broker Fatigue & Buyer Opportunity

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | October 30, 2019 | 0

I’ve written about how buyers have gotten a bit accustomed to TV shows, where every house in Waco, Texas looks like a West Elm catalog. In the case of New York City, buyers have started to see more, more, and more staged apartments. West Elm Goes to Texas The expectation then becomes that every apartmentRead more

“The Producers” Off-Off Broadway (on 87th Street)?

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | October 30, 2019 | 0

I haven’t been writing as much on new development of late. In this case, I wanted to think through what buying in a particular new building would look like if you decided, from the building, that you would be buying as an investor. In this case, after five years, the math could work so thatRead more

VIDEO: When You Bring Your Family To Your New Apartment

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | September 26, 2019 | 0

One of my favorite times is when my customers, aka my homebuyers, bring their families to see their new apartment for the first time. Of course, some buyers bring a consensus-building approach to their purchases, bringing lots of family members to the property before they choose to proceed. Many others, however, leave their families outRead more

Renter, Buyers: The Things People Are Saying and How to Handle Listings

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | September 26, 2019 | 0

Conventional Wisdom would see things this way: If the sales market is strong, the rental market should be weak. If the sales market is weak, the rental market should then be strong. Most of the time, it looks that way. And right now, it would appear, by most metrics, that the sales market is softer,Read more

Market Perceptions, Market Realities

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | August 27, 2019 | 0

It’s that time of the summer when buyers are particularly tuned out from, well, most things. So, it’s not entirely surprising to get “please update me” questions about the real estate market. What seems odd is the question I’m getting quite often right now: “Do you expect the real estate market to drop 15-20% ifRead more

VIDEO: Why Everyone Thinks They Are Brilliant

The summer is a time to recharge the batteries. In the case of the Manhattan and Brooklyn markets, it may also be a time to get really amazing deals. I’m thinking about how mortgage rates are likely to come down, inventory is slightly up in most places, and prices are slightly down from a yearRead more

Sellers of cooperative apartments who are seeing their properties linger are wondering what they can do. You can take a look at our reports here and here for a bit more color about inventory and the market.
