It has been another extraordinary year in the real estate tech sector. There has been so much growth in virtually every aspect of the sector… new startups, big funding rounds, user growth, exciting new innovation, etc.
As someone who has been in the space virtually from the beginning, it’s really amazing to see how much has transpired in the past five years. From a handful of startups...
“Those not busy being born are busy dying.”'
One of my favorite lyrics from my favorite artist, Bob Dylan.
For me, this really hits home and is something that has guided my career for as long as I can remember.
Innovate or die.
Be on the right side of trends, not the one that it lets them pass by.
Invest in myself everyday.
And for the past few years for ...

Yesterday I wrote about how we need the real estate industry at large (specifically the commercial side of the business), to get more involved in the tech sector. To embrace it. Invest in it. Support it.This is not to say they aren’t, but they certainly aren’t embracing it in massive quantities. At least, not yet. This topic forced me to think deeper into what's really going on. ...
I was at the amazing CRE // Tech Intersect event recently in NYC. Congrats to my friend Pierce Neinken on another extraordinary event! I was fortunate to have met Pierce when he first started this event platform a few years ago and to see where he has taken it is truly astonishing.
