“Home staging used to be optional. Today, it’s a necessity in selling a house.”

I sat down and collected all of our eleven sales for the past six months and I added them all together and divided by eleven. I then took that average and presented it as the average price for a Manhattan apartment. The media ate it up.

Don’t you dare underestimate the power of your own instinct.

My mother’s genius was to put her finger on the gifts she saw in each of us, and make every one of us believe that that gift was uniquely ours.

I gave up years ago on the concept that you could actually have balance in your life, I think it’s a phantom chase.

If you’re having fun, you wind up innovating.

I think of my business and investments as extension of my family.

If I could set a world record, it would be that I have 150 business partners, all with thriving businesses of their own that started with nothing and I made the difference to make them all billionaires.

If you have an idea, immediately move on it. To start that fire and get it burning immediately…it’s everything.

I did everything in my power to give my brokers brand identity and clout in the market. I saw my job as parent to build them up and if I took care of them, then they would take care of their customer.

Don’t teach talent that isn’t there.

Especially if you’re over 40, shortening the term of your loan to pay it off sooner could make you mortgage-free in retirement.

I became a larger than life figure for one reason only. When you’re quoted in the ‘Wall Street Journal,’ the ‘New York Times,’ constantly as the expert in the business people assume you’re a lot bigger than you are. And then I had to run like hell to catch up with my own image.

Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today.

You are who you are meant to be. Dance as if no one’s watching. Love as if it’s all you know. Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.

.I’m gettin’ it now, today. I don’t even know where I’m gonna be twenty years from now, so I’m just gonna keep on rockin’, cause if I start saving up bits and pieces of me.

When faith is completely replaced by creed, worship by discipline, love by habit; when the crisis of today is ignored because of the splendors of the past

You are who you are meant to be, Dance as if no one’s watching, Love as if it’s all you know, Dream as if you’ll live forever, Live as if you’ll die today

If you’ve got a today, don’t wear it tomorrow. Tomorrow never happens. It’s all the same day.

Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.
