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

VIDEO: Is it EVER About Timing The Market?

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | October 31, 2019 | 0

Buyers usually show two sides: The homebuyer side and the analytical side. Usually, it’s the homebuyer side that shows the truth. A buyer is trying to move forward in her life, for any number of reasons. Time to expand, time to downsize, and everything in between. Home is open, excited, and ready to find what’sRead 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: Do You Have What It Takes to Renovate? (BTW, you do)

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | August 29, 2019 | 0

Probably 95% of what I do is empower buyers and sellers to move forward in their lives. Real estate remains the most tangible expression of who they are. And what is more tangible than doing a renovation exactly how you want to do it? And yet- this can be incredibly daunting. You need patience andRead 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

Dogs and Dollars

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

The question that was put to me last week: “Does a building’s rules to allow pets, specifically dogs, impact the value of a property?” I have sold about 25 units in a building on the West Side that has not allowed dogs in many years, so the question isn’t new to me. Some shareholders wereRead more

Social Media, FOMO & The Real Estate Market

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | July 29, 2019 | 0

A big question. How has social media affected real estate purchases? Are there positive impacts? Negative ones? Both? On one hand, I hear stories about how Facebook is helping realtors do business, Instagram helping us promote what we’re up to, spreading the word, quite effectively, with very beautiful photographs. I do get to see absolutelyRead more

The Beginning of a Co-op Trend?

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | July 29, 2019 | 0

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. I can point out a few trends which hurt the resale prospects of older, less renovated properties: BuyerRead more

Land Lease Buildings, Updated Thinking

175 East 62nd Street 9A My team and I just brought a gorgeous new property to market at 175 East 62nd Street. This building, also called The Victoria, is on the corner of 3rd Avenue, now just one block from the Q train, an incredibly central location on a very cute block with excellent coffeeRead more

What's Next For The NYC Market?

By admin | Newsletter | Comments are Closed | August 23, 2018 | 0

What’s Next? We are in the waiting period between the end of summer, when there’s not much new “data” to chew on. Many people are away, weighing options of what they want to do in the Fall. Buy, sell, rent, move to the suburbs, etc. I’ll cover the Trump stuff in a separate post. EveryoneRead more
