I really enjoyed my conversation with Candace Taylor, writer for The Real Deal Magazine, one of the best resources for residential real estate news in NYC. She covers real estate all day long and we speak about many issues including square footage discrepancies and getting people mad.
I get to speak about more than masonry (sorry Teri) with Teri Rogers, who writes for the New York Times real estate section and is co-founder and the content engine behind BrickUnderground:
“an online resource that enables New York City homeowners to leverage their collective intelligence—exchanging ideas, asking questions, and getting answers about the art and science of home-owning in New York City.”
She broke the story on the Twittering doorman and provides practical everyday information and forums for vertical dwellers. Check it out.
Jonathan Butler is the publisher of the essential Brownstoner.com which is a blog et al about Brooklyn. He started out as an anonymous blogger looking to write about his Brooklyn brownstone in Clinton Hill – then removed his mask – and his blog morphed into Brownstoner Media LLC. Some of his efforts include Brooklyn Flea, his Brooklyn flea market in both Fort Greene and under the Brooklyn Bridge, a services directory, a renovation guide, renovation blogs, and recently, a URL shortener/twitter aggregator.
The interview is done via cell phone in the middle of a construction site, which is, I suppose, the story of Jonathan’s entrepreneurial business life.
In this podcast, I have a conversation with Larry Sicular, Principal of Lawrence Sicular & Associates and Editor & Publisher of The Stamford Review, a real estate and public policy journal.
Larry has taken a different route in bringing real estate and other key topics into the fold. His journal is contrarian to current convention by presenting high quality long form articles which also provide possible solutions to the issues discussed.
I had the pleasure of interviewing Stuart Elliott, the Editor-In-Chief of The Real Deal Magazine. Together with Publisher Amir Korangy, The Real Deal pushes out a lot of content on the residential and commercial real estate markets in New York City and South Florida, making their publication a must-read.
“The trend is your friend…until it ends.”
I had the pleasure of speaking with Holden Lewis, a long-time reporter for Bankrate.com. He’s a prolific blogger of all things mortgage related at Mortgage Matters. You can follow him on Twitter.
I’ve been following Holden’s work for years. He’s also interviewed me in the past so it’s nice to switch things around a bit.
I had a fun time interviewing Ali Rogers of CBS MoneyWatch where she writes a column Ask The Agent. She’s a very smart chronicler of issues related to housing. A few years ago, she authored a book: Diary of a Real Estate Rookie to good reviews and wrote a column for Inman News for three years of the same name. She is also into the Twitter thing and is a successful real estate agent.
I often tell her – she’s no “Rookie”.
