The latest episode of my podcast has been released – The Many Ways Manhattan Real Estate is Different from Everywhere Else – Part I and can be heard at www.Harlem-Stories.com or your favorite podcast app.

It’s common to have a conversation with a buyer that is familiar with buying and selling elsewhere, but yet they are shocked to discover how different it is in Manhattan. The goal for this 2 Part episode is to provide some transparency in how things work differently here. In this episode we discuss:

· Demographics – Renter population vs. Owner Population, Income, etc

· Understanding how involved the process is for renting here

· Buying- Inventory/Types of homes, Condo’s vs. Co-op’s- Breakdown of inventory, prices, and a bit of insight into the process

The latest episode of my podcast has been released – Thanksgiving: The Intersection of Norman Rockwell and Drug Kingpin Bumpy Johnson and can be heard at www.Harlem-Stories.com or your favorite podcast app. Now on Youtube and Amazon Music!

In this episode we give thanks by going back into Harlem's history to discuss a famous as well as an infamous resident. Norman Rockwell lived in the section of Harlem known as Sugar Hill today during part of his childhood. On the opposite side of the spectrum we discuss infamous drug kingpin Bumpy Johnson. While not everyone knows who Bumpy Johnson is- TV and Film have made his name well known, fictionalizing his story in multiple formats. I selected these two very different individuals due to their impact on how we think about Thanksgiving and their connection to Harlem.
