Happy Holidays: Year In Review
I just want to wish everyone a Happy Holidays and a Happy & Healthy New Year! It's been a GREAT year running UrbanDigs.com! I even won an Inman Innovator Award for Most Innovative Real Estate Blog! The live chat feature seems to be a hit with many first time buyers seeking advice, and I hope to continue offering more live tips based on your own needs in 2007!
This past year was full of interviews and press in major New York City publications including The Daily News, The Metro, & Manhattan Living magazine:
Interviewing w/ Daily News & Phyllis Furman
Interviewing w/ Daily News & Lucy Maher
Interviewing w/ Metro & Paul Berger
Interviewing w/ Michael Smith of Streeteasy
Interviewing w/ Manhattan Living Magazine
We introduced a new concept to NYC real estate blogging and started investigative reporting from the streets of Manhattan to bring to you tips on the changing market fundamentals and new developments. Now that I partnered with a fantastic freelance TV producer, Marika Gutmann, we will focus on more educational videos in 2007 to bring the most important aspects of new york city real estate investing right to your home so you can best profit from it. Here are the first two clips, including the last one that Marika produced.
Video Report: In-Building Competition

All in all, it's been unbelievable meeting so many new people and being able to get my first urbandigs clients to work with. The whole goal of this site was to tell you how I view the market, how I think you can profit best from it, and how I can possibly help you in any NYC real estate transaction! My passion will continue to be to provide you with my analysis of the constantly changing fundamentals of the new york city housing market, along with commentary on monetary policy and economic data, that might affect your real estate investment decisions in the short term. The hope will ALWAYS be to maintain an open forum for all to speak their minds so that everyone can best invest their hard earned dollars in this great city's real estate market!
Thank you for reading, commenting, sharing with friends, taking time to chat with me, and anything else that I am missing! Now lets make 2007 better!
