Describing JC as Artsy and gritty with a local butcher, mom and pops shops, and a thriving restaurant scene similar to DUMBO??? 😂 What a scammer.

“Art washing” a term I first heard about in context of Jersey City real estate. You promote the art WITH the real estate to give some edgy cultural credibility to the condo building you’re hyping.

You know you’re cool and urban when they slap a David Bowie mural on the side of your brand new fake renovated loft building đŸ€©

She's promoting the JC of 20 years ago, with the shitty hyper gentrification that scrubbed all that away with the prices of today!

Her clients deserve to get scammed if they believe any of this bullshit.

Guess all those 1 month broker fees are going towards this lady's $26k Uber Eats bill

Mentioning that bill was one of the most obnoxious things I have ever read. She's horrible.

Lmao, this article is a vanity fluff piece. She is literally just jerking herself off.

Yeah- I was hoping to see an article that discussed how the financial crisis made building rentals more profitable than condos and how that effects neighborhoods, but this... this was just word vomit.

FWIW- I have long lamented that pretty much all the new buildings aside from 99 hudson have been rentals downtown. I lived in Paulus Hook for a long time, and it was almost frustrating meeting someone cool at the dog park- you knew this was their stop on the way to the burbs in 1-2 years. HP is much better in this regard, its an actual neighborhood. You also see people wearing JC or local spots t-shirts often, when I lived in PH, it was extremely rare.

She stopped shopping for 60 days and saved $100k.

I get that people are in different income brackets but that averages out to $584k a year on shopping, seemingly outside her insane food delivery costs. She would need to earn $1m in pretax income just to sustain that shopping. I guess that if she’s making 6% commissions on $30MM-$50MM of dealflow a year she can fund her lifestyle but wow.

Baffling.

These are the people that think the only thing between people and home ownership is lattes and advacado toast. You can't save and boot strap if you don't have anything to save to begin with, christ I thought the pandemic & inflation made these sort of things front & center

There is a sizable population that eats out 3 meals a day. In my experience they live in 100% denial on its costs. Delivery apps likely charge more on fees than the average home cook spends in groceries on a meal.
