Writing. Reading. Deals. NYC Real Estate.

[Closed By Mo @ClosedByMo]

Hello World (& fellow lurkers)!

My name's Mohammed (Mo) - I'm a RE broker in NYC.

I've worked on multimillion $ deals that I've closed with my eyes shut, and deals < $100k that kept me up at night. I share the jokes and memes that grow in this spread - and a few life observations a long the way.

When I'm not yapping about real estate or shitposting on twitter (X ?) you can find me:

- Being mom's 3rd fav child (not last woohoo)
- Hanging out with the kiddos that make me a funcle!
- Self-reflecting on life via substack (TheMadHatter)
- Scuba diving in random bodies of water
- At the gym
- Scaring my wife while I'm riding 🏍️✌️

The property is strategically located near a MetroPCS, pawn shop, Burger King, and a store that finances rims.

If all goes well. I'm buying myself ice-cream this weekend. CASH

Biz lesson learnt

Sometimes you have to be the bigger jerk to keep the deal moving

Some ppl just don't respond to anything but negative pressure

Learning to shift gears back to normal is the muscle I'm still working on

I am like water. Nice to me, nice to you :$

[Shrimp Billionaire @fentanylbrownie]

I’m becoming convinced that the only form of wealth that matters later in life is having adult children who enjoy spending time with you.

On a transaction (sell side) where buyers tried to negotiate to install more floor joists/beams

The property has passed all inspections and has a CO

I lost all credibility for the agents who decided to ask us for it because they don't know how to tell their clients No

@raffmirza We need to see you in a moustache - ultimate Greek energy

[Closed By Mo @ClosedByMo]

Know when to eat a loss for the sake of a relationship

Losing a few $ to start/maintain a long term rltnshp is worth the ROI

If I have an ongoing rltnshp with a vendor and they nickel and dime me (or my clients) then adios

Aka

"Which way does business flow?"

[Chad Moore @Chazzym22]

Broker in my office lost two deals at the deadline late yesterday that would have been $1.2mm in commissions to him.

He was at the office at 8AM this mrng, on the phone working on other deals.

That is tenacity.

one of my favourite tweets ever tweeted

[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

“Greatness does not come out of intelligence, it comes from character.

Character is not formed out of smart people: it is formed out of people who have suffered.”

[Patrick Bet-David @patrickbetdavid]

People don't do business with the smartest person in the room.

They do business with the person they like, trust, and respect.
