A real estate thought …

By now, the real estate industry’s battle cry has become accepted and common knowledge, seemingly accepted by consumers, commentators, and politicians alike: We must fix housing in order to fix the economy!
But what if our common knowledge on the subject is flat-out wrong? What if – and here’s a world-changing idea – housing isn’t [...]



Boston Real Estate Marketing

“Marketing is a battle of perceptions, not products.” That was a line from last night’s episode of Mad Men. The show’s sub-plot was how a dog food company was losing market share because it was learned that its product was made out of horse meat. In testing, the dog owners were pleased with how much [...]



The New Old Colony

Who’s going to get us out of this mess? The people who got us into it, of course

Embedded video from CNN Video
……one of the things that’s odd about the current situation is that the people who created the problem are so powerful in deciding what the solution to the problem is going to be. There is a great tradition on Wall Street of making a fortune, creating a mess, and then making [...]



Will our economy go Bankrupt?

Look, I’m typically an optimistic guy. You could even say I’m optimistic to a fault. But unfortunately, I’m finding it very difficult to remain optimistic in the current economy.
Let me be very clear, I’m not an economist by any stretch of the imagination. I don’t even have an MBA. However I think I get a [...]
