[NYT Business Day Live] Luxury Real Estate As Art?

Posted by Jonathan Miller - Saturday, September 1, 2012, 6:00 AM

[click to play]

I enjoyed the interview of James B. Stewart and Alexei Barrionuevo by Louise Story (best last name a reporter could ever have), on the topic of luxury real estate in the New York Times Business Day Live video series. Mr. Stewart (author of Den of Thieves – one of my favorite books of all time) penned “The Market for Real Estate Masterpieces” exploring the idea of high end real estate as art based on Alexei’s high end housing market coverage of the past year, including the $100M listing (including the upset interior designer), the $88M sale and the >$90M contract among others.

Here was my take on the “Art as Real Estate” angle in Mr. Stewart’s column:

“When people refer to their real estate as art, they’re really trying to say it’s unique, that it can’t be replicated.”

He said he’s seen the phenomenon not just in New York, but also Miami, London, Los Angeles and other markets where investors “are looking for safety in a world of turmoil and uncertainty.”

But, he said, “they’re confusing price with art. You’d think that titans of industry would be very individualistic about their acquisitions, but at the very top, there’s a herd mentality. You get one or two very large transactions that grab headlines and then it’s like a light switch goes off. In New York, this happened in the second half of 2010, and since then it’s been very intense. The size of what’s happening is unprecedented. How long can this go on? You see this kind of behavior and you have to wonder.”

Business Insider’s “The Best Finance People On Twitter”

Posted by Jonathan J. Miller -Sunday, April 22, 2012, 11:15 AM

Well I’ve locked myself in my office for the past few days placing the finishing touches on the upcoming week’s (Thursday) housing market reports for Long Island and Hamptons/North Fork but noticed about 500 new followers on my twitter account.

Business Insider, the giant blog aggregator with an online newsroom, placed me on their “The 101 Finance People You Have To Follow On Twitter“

The only name noticeably absent (has to be an oversight!) is my friend Barry Ritholtz who is a twitter content machine, known to wear Ted Baxter ties.

Very cool to be on the list with the very people I already love to follow. Thanks @BusinessInsider!

Getting Back To Business: Good news for the Berkeley site...

Good news for the Berkeley site where the historic Sequoia Building on the corner of Telegraph and Haste was destroyed by a fire. The owners of the site have wasted no time in figuring out what to do next, and have submitted plans to the city for a temporary resurrection. The "canopy-like tents fixed to concrete pads, along with three shipping containers which would be used to house kitchens" will allow two restaurants that were gutted to reopen. "it will have an ad hoc quality, but could be really fun," Oakland architect Kirk Peterson, who designed the space, said. "It's a unique application and no-one has ever done this here which puts it into its own category. The owners want to get their businesses up and running again and the city is interested in moving things along as quickly as possible to help the neighborhood." [Berkeleyside]

Closed For Business: A few commercial vacancies are about...

A few commercial vacancies are about to pop up in the Mission, Tenderloin and SoMa. Under pressure from the feds, several medical marijuana clubs have shut their doors. "It looks like the U.S. attorney has won this round," San Francisco attorney Brendan Hallinan said. "They've succeeded in shutting down the four dispensaries they targeted." The dispensaries received letters from the U.S. attorney two months ago stating that the feds will side-step the pot clubs and go after their landlords. Rather than fight evictions, the four clubs have opted to shut down. [ABC Local/photo via Shutterstock]
