ny: Queens Foreclosure the highest in the five boro's! - 07/23/07 03:43 PM
Ryan Slack from PropertySharks.com talks about the foreclosures in all five Boro's.  He explains that while all areas of NY have seen an increase - he is mostly worried with Queens and the rate that homes are coming up on the foreclosure list.  I will admit it - I have seen a large incline in the number of homes that are pending or are in foreclosure, but keep in mind - when the analysts speak of Queens, it is not the Bayside, Whitestone, Flushing, Malba or Beechhurst area.  They are talking more of Kew Gardens, Forest Hills, Rego Park, Woodhaven, Jamaica, … (3 comments)

ny: Buyer agency and Seller agency - two different roles - 09/07/06 10:22 AM
 
In Nyc it is not normal practice to work with a buyer agent. I have never been a buyer agent and I have rarely seen a buyer's agent.  I think that this is something that should be enhanced and worked on here.  As a broker in Queens, NY.  I feel that the buyers are mis-lead on where agents loyalities lay.  Even though we have the buyers sign an agency disclosure, outlining who the agent works with - they still don't know.
