The assumption baked into that separation is that capital is morally neutral until it is deployed philanthropically. According to Steven Libman, founder of Investing With Purpose™, that assumption is costing investors more than ...
The retail podium at the base of a Waikiki hotel is easy to read as ancillary income, a few thousand square feet of rent that improves the operating statement without changing the investment case. That framing understates what the space does. A well-tenanted ground floor generates something the rooms cannot generate on their own: a ...

Waterfront property is usually priced off a single number.

When an owner sets out to hire a 3rd party management company, the comparison almost always starts, and often ends, with the management fee.

Aggregate price figures for the Florida Keys currently describe a market that almost nobody is actually transacting in. A small number of record sales at the top of the range have pulled averages and medians sharply upward. At the same time, a large and slower-moving band of older canal homes has been correcting downward. Averaged ...
For decades, we have told young Americans a version of success that sounds something like this: graduate high school, go to college, earn a degree, find a good job, and build a career. There is nothing wrong with that path. College remains the right choice for many. The problem is that somewhere along the way, ...

How ...
When out-of-state adult children help lead a parent’s home sale, there is a real opportunity to capture significant value through thoughtful preparation. In Morris County, New Jersey, where mid-to-upper-range home prices make preparation decisions consequential, a well-prepared listing can command a sale price that is six figures higher than the same home sold as-is, according ...
Many first-time buyers assume they need tens of thousands of dollars saved before they can purchase a home. In Rochester, Minnesota, some are closing for as little as $1,000 out of pocket-thanks to state assistance programs that make homeownership more accessible than buyers often realize, according to Alex Mayer, a real estate agent with Rochester ...
