2015 Year in Review - Mark Schnurman

What was your most notable project, deal, transaction or professional achievement in 2015?   My greatest accomplishment this year was the tremendous success of  Eastern’s new brokers. Our associates generated tremendous deal flow and closings. Quite frankly, their success is nothing short of amazing. What real estate project, transaction, market trend or product had a significant impact on your industry in 2015? Interest rates remaining low and global volatility helped the NYC real estate markets. How will you be supercharging your productivity in 2016? Continue to hire incredibly talented people and give them the structured autonomy to succeed.  Also, constantly reassessing behavior in light of changing conditions is crucial. What emerging trends will drive investment and development in 2016? Investors with capital that they need to deploy.
