					  <description><![CDATA[Shopping is not a spectator sport. At almost any
level, from books to stocks to brokers, it involves fulfilling desires,
meeting needs, negotiating price and choosing suppliers. There is no
guarantee of success, and as the price of the purchase goes up, so do
the stakes - making the amount of research and advance preparation more
important. Having the right professional by your side may be the best
investment you can make to assure the best results, especially in the
highly competitive game of New York City real estate, where it's common
for both the apartment buyer and the seller to retain the services of
separate brokers to facilitate their search for a home - or for a buyer.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Everyone knows the air in New York isn't the best
stuff in the world to breathe. But what most people don't know is that
the indoor environment is often more polluted and toxic than the world
outdoors. In fact, a recent EPA study found that the indoor
concentrations of 20 toxic compounds can be as much as 200 times higher
compared to the relatively pristine urban outdoors. So let's start with
a basic - and, hopefully, obvious - principle: If it's poisonous,
carcinogenic, triggers asthma, or wreaks havoc on your nervous system,
you probably don't want it in your building. Seems like common sense,
right? And yet most of the products we use to build and maintain our
buildings are portable Superfund sites, making their way Trojan
Horse-like, into our common and living spaces. The good news for
building owners and managers is that once you know what to look for,
keeping the toxins out is a relatively easy thing to do.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Co-op and condo boards often become involved in
disputes with contractors and subcontractors who perform work either on
the building's common areas, or within individual apartments for a
shareholder or unit owner. A mechanic's lien and lien enforcement
action is the most popular and most potent remedy for contractors,
subcontractors, and suppliers of materials to recover payment for
services or materials supplied to a construction project, of which
building owners and managers should be aware. ]]></description>

includes property managers, plumbers, electricians, security companies,
glass specialists and attorneys? You call it diverse, far-reaching, and
multifaceted - but you could also call it the New York Association of
Realty Managers, or NYARM.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[While environmental laws have improved air quality,
grit, grime and grunge continue to mask the windows of most New
Yorkers. This aesthetic blur can change a tenant's disposition as well
as alter how a building is perceived by a passerby's knowing glance. ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[It all started with a man and a dream. The man was
William H. Reynolds, a young tycoon and New York's youngest state
senator at only 24 years old. The dream was to turn an unsung barrier
island in Nassau County into the next playground for the rich and
famous. Already famous himself for constructing Dreamland - Coney
Island's largest amusement park - in 1903, Reynolds purchased Long Beach
in the early 1900s and set about making his dream a reality. ]]></description>

state or country, or just moving to another apartment in a new
neighborhood or borough, finding the right schools, churches, dentists,
doctors, plumbers, electricians or other service professionals can be a
frustrating experience at best, especially for a newcomer.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Amid fears about the sagging economy and war in the
Middle East, the New York real estate market started slowly at the
beginning of 2003. But in true New York fashion, the market rebounded
nicely and by the summer months was thriving. By year's end, Manhattan
property was hotter than ever.]]></description>
