Great chat and interview
In conversation: Tenant rep leader @Gmarans dishes on `post-post-COVID' work world costar.com/article/147585390…`post-post-covid-work-world
Thanks you sir! Gentleman and a scholar @CoyDavidsonCRE
This quoted post is unavailable.
Loved hearing from Keith at Savills this past week!
Great to speak with @Savills yesterday as part of their Savills Sunrise Series!
We had a substantive discussion on the housing crisis, including the historic Midtown South Mixed Use plan.
Had to battle for the W!
It was an intense game of CRE Guess Who but ultimately @Gmarans came out on top.
Thanks @ElifinRealty @hey_itsfly
Always gets a reaction out of people. Some good, some bad
My pal @Gmarans shared this a couple years ago, & I never get tired of mentioning it:
Real estate isn’t rocket science.
Not even close. Real estate is much harder.
And before you cancel me, here’s the logic.
Rocket science is physics. And there are laws to physics. Which are immutable and don’t change.
Once you learn the laws you can navigate that world.
In real estate there are no rules. There is no blueprint. No script.
Experience matters but all negotiations are unique.
The dynamics shift constantly because it’s about people and egos.
And what’s more unpredictable than sensitive psyches?
But there are common themes to successful people in the real estate game.
Resilient, adaptable, quick learning polymaths.
And if you think this post is self-serving, then you’re right.
Although I’m still trying to figure out if Newton had more than 3 laws.

Wow. Office building tax rate had its biggest percent decrease in 16 years and is the lowest rate in 22 years.
Meanwhile apartment buildings tax rate had its biggest percent increase in 15 years and is the highest rate in 10 years.
Met w major NYC landlord today. They’re seeing post-MDW decrease in tour activity. Also in process of several lender workouts which haven’t hit the press. Says everyone everywhere doing the same.
Beyonce spiked inflation in Sweden. I fear @UPS risks doing the same to the US in event of labor strike.
The office isn’t just a place. It’s a statement. What are you saying to your team, clients and competition?
Why are experts needed to explain that employee time theft undermines career development? Slow days I understand. To make it a practice is entirely different.
Experts warn that although the "bare minimum Mondays" trend on TikTok can ease the "Sunday scaries," taking it too far may negatively impact your career.
The practice encourages doing just enough to get by and focuses on self-care.

“The business world is engaged with content creation,” said Gabe Marans, a vice chairman at Savills, which added a soundproofed studio in its NYC office. Gabe has used the space himself to make podcasts and videos that he has posted.

Great chat with Julia. Give it a listen!
Can an office be a happy place? And is it back? @Gmarans @Savills thinks so in this exclusive tour of his Park Avenue refurbed office. With @juliahobsbawm in New York and @stefanstern in London, it's a goodie The Nowhere Office open.spotify.com/episode/1gH…

Silicon Valley Bank’s shareholders and executives lose it all, as they should. Depositors in good faith, however, should recover and have access to their deposits in order to meet their payrolls, pay their suppliers, and to prevent contagion.
Great time with @juliahobsbawm!
There are a lot of very interesting and somewhat rebellious real estate people in New York speaking openly about the changes happening in offices and the politics of offices and @Gmarans is one. We just chatted for @nowhereoffice in his office: coming soon

The last time we had low leasing velocity combined with a tough lending environment was 1991.
