"I still have women come up to me and talk about that kitchen," "Nancy has incredible taste, but I've always been into old Spanish," "My feeling is that you find an authentic house and, authentically, try to restore it," "I wanted a Spanish Colonial because I'm in love with California and our history. I see it in a romantic way-the twenties, indoor-outdoor living, arches, comfort,"

In the age of generative AI, not all is what it seems. From photorealistic videos of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's head grotesquely poking out of a toiletto AI chatbots that can blaze through a Turing Test without raising suspicion, it's never been harder to distinguish between reality and a fiction dreamed up by an AI. Still, some instances of AI use still stand out like a sore thumb. Take, for instance, this Zillow listing for a single-family rental home in Detroit, Michigan.

Jeff Mateja doesn't think so. A former corporate auditor at IBM and current top listing agent at Keller Williams, Mateja works old-school banker's hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 5:00. He goes to the beach on Sundays with everyone else. He doesn't mind the crowds. He also lists more houses than some large teams. His latest claim to fame: Listing 90 homes in 90 days. Well, technically 72 days. He only works five days a week.

In a reply on X to a user asking whether Opendoor would permit home buying with Bitcoin or crypto, Nejatian responded, "We will. Just need to prioritize it."

The truth is inspections don't end in a simple pass or fail, but certain issues on the report can indicate trouble and lead to buyers walking away. A clean inspection report-or a "passing" inspection-will only note minor issues that are either just cosmetic or won't be too expensive to fix. On the other hand, a "failing" report often points to expensive, complicated, or time-consuming repairs that might be red flags to buyers.

The City Council has approved the $13.5 million acquisition of 447 S. Almaden Blvd a 3.56-acre parcel located between the convention center to the east and Discovery Meadow and the Children's Discovery Museum property to the west after BXP, formerly known as Boston Properties, put the site up for sale in the spring after abandoning its development plans.

The platform addresses gaps that often leave agents and buyers without key information such as whether offers exist, which deadlines apply or what it takes to secure a property. Consumers expect real-time transparency in every other part of their lives. Why should buying or selling a home be any different? said Chad Ochsner, broker/owner of RE/MAX Alliance. We're proud to bring this level of clarity and confidence to Colorado.

Residents sat in traffic as they sought to escape January's Palisades Fire, with many abandoning vehicles that were later bulldozed to clear the road. Driving through the Palisades is different now. The community, which Marguleas estimated saw about 5,900 homes damaged or destroyed by the fire, has had debris cleared from most lots as the wood frames of new construction begin to emerge.

NEW YORK (AP) - The U.S. Federal Trade Commission is suing Zillow and Redfin, accusing the real estate companies of entering what the regulator says is an illegal deal to suppress competition in online rental advertising. In a lawsuit filed on Tuesday, the FTC alleges that this agreement started in February - when Zillow paid Redfin $100 million. In exchange for that and other compensation, the commission said, Redfin agreed to end contracts with advertising partners, stop competing ads for multifamily properties

Not to be a Nosy Nelly, but in this investment environment, I have my MBA accounting and finance students watching investments that have motion. The age-old expression that accounting and finance students can quote in their sleep is that cash is king. And from the looks of things, Paris Hilton is proving that saying to be right. It's not uncommon for homeowners, whether high-net-worth or not, to refinance their homes for liquidity or investment flexibility.

In 2024, the team closed 357 units with a sales volume of $112.3 million. So far in 2025, it has sold 223 units totaling $77 million in volume.

The brand, the tools, and the support give our clients confidence and give our team the strongest foundation to grow.

At first, Sicari, the top rental broker at Douglas Elliman, who leads a team of six other agents, assumed the callers were clients. 'Oh, which apartment?' she'd ask. But the addresses they gave her didn't exist, nor did the prices: $950 for a Soho studio, $2,500 for a loftlike two-bed, two-bath in Greenwich Village, a Gramercy one-bedroom in a luxury doorman building for $1,800 a month.

In 2014, Ian Schrager was living at 40 Bond and working with Herzog & de Meuron to build his "tough lux" boutique condo - think concrete floors and sharp lines - at 215 Christye. So perhaps it came as a surprise when the nightlife impresario turned hotelier bought a fussy Westchester estate for $4.9 million. But then again, he had reason to want a retreat: The Studio 54 founder had leapt to a career inventing and perfecting the boutique hotel with his buddy Philip Starck.

In 2017, Joni Cheung bought a one-bedroom-plus-den preconstruction condo in Richmond Hill, Ont., for $348,000. By the time it was completed, in December, 2021, she was in a relationship with Ryan Berard, now a 33-year-old technical sales lead, and the couple moved into the 565-square-foot condo together. "It was on the squishier side," Ms. Cheung says of their condo. Mr. Berard works from home while Ms. Cheung is on a hybrid work schedule, so they set up two workspaces, one of which had to be moved when they had guests over. Mr. Berard's hobbies, including collecting Magic: The Gatherin g cards and playing with them, also required space that was limited in the couple's home.

WWE legend Hulk Hogan's will has been brought to light, revealing what is to become of the $5 million fortune he left behind-six weeks after his death. Hogan died at the age of 71 inside his Florida home on July 24 after suffering a cardiac arrest.

As you start to have children, your priorities change. In your younger years, you may have wanted a bustling city with great brunch spots, happy hour deals, and bars that stayed open until the wee hours of the morning.
