Welcome,<\/strong><\/span> NY Times<\/em> readers.<\/span> <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I know you’re busy.\u00a0You have other things to do.
\nLike benching the Sunday Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Guys, give me a New York minute!<\/p>\n

Are you<\/strong><\/span> looking for top-quality real-estate lit?\u00a0 You just found it!\u00a0 (To subscribe, enter your email in the space on the left and click “submit.”)<\/p>\n

I’ve been<\/span> on the NYT<\/em> op-ed page <\/em>three times in the past year and a half. I’ve written a million — make that 72 — blog posts about real estate.\u00a0 Check them out here<\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n

Must read amusing posts<\/a> about real estate now.<\/em>\u00a0 Yes, you must.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I do a<\/strong><\/span> music\/prose show, \u201cDear Landlord.”\u00a0\u00a0 I’m doing my “Dear Landlord” (aka “Klezmer Guy”) show at The Ark, Ann Arbor, Michigan,\u00a0 on Sat. Feb. 9.<\/p>\n

My band, Yiddishe Cup<\/a>, plays all over the country. When my buildings turn to dust, this song will remain.<\/p>\n

<\/object> Meshugeneh Mambo (Crazy Mambo)<\/a> by Yiddishe Cup<\/a><\/p>\n

I post up every Wednesday morning.\u00a0 Subscribe and you’ll get a weekly post.\u00a0 I won’t sell or give away your email address.<\/p>\n

I’ll gladly write a book about real estate if a publisher offers me a contract. (TV series would be OK, too!) \u00a0 Title:\u00a0 How to Jam with Your Tenants<\/em>.\u00a0 The mock-up for the book is here\u00a0<\/a> — an article I wrote for City Journal<\/em>. The article is my best essay.<\/p>\n

Thanks for your time and interest.<\/p>\n
