Record 550 enjoy "Real Estate Fight Night"
Some 550 real estate executives representing dozens of "blue chip" firms with names like Witkoff, Tishman, Invesco, Thor Equities, Eastdil Secured, The Trump Organization, Taconic Investment Partners, and DDG jammed Madison Square Garden Theatre for an evening of action in the ring and networking. Bouts began at 6 pm and culminated with the anticipated main event after midnight featuring Muay Thai master Chris Kwiatkowski, of J.D. Carlisle and Spencer Grekoski, who trained at the Weapons Nine gym in New Jersey. Kwiatkowski knocked down Grekoski in the first round, but ended up losing in the second. Event organizers invited 100 active duty U.S. troops and veterans so they could enjoy the action.

The death of the generic offering memorandum: What buyers expect in 2025 - by Kimberly Zar Bloorian
There was a time when an offering memorandum (OM) was pretty bare bones, some photos, a few bullet points on income, and a rent roll thrown in at the back. That used to get the job done. Not anymore. In 2025, buyers are sharper, faster, and more selective. They’re looking
