Two decades in the New York City real estate market teaches you one thing quickly: there is no such thing as a "normal" market—only cycles, and how well you understand them.
From boom years that rewarded speed and confidence, to downturns that demanded patience and precision, every phase reveals something different about value, leverage, and human behavior.
The agents, investors, and developers who last aren't the ones who predict the market perfectly—they're the ones who recognize patterns early, adjust faster than everyone else, and stay disciplined when the pressure builds.
This is a conversation about what those cycles actually teach you—when to push, when to wait, and how to operate when the market inevitably shifts again.
