The main difference is that in NY agents have to work much harder to make a deal happen - board packages are nightmares in paper and just getting to that point takes huge amount of effort (inconsistent databases, lack of uniform "rules" when it comes to buildings so analysis is needed before a property is added to the show list, lack of lockboxes so showings sometimes require Olympic levels of coordination and time management etc.  

As of now there’s a Hard Rock Hotel underway right off Centennial Olympic Park dr in CH.

New York, San Francisco, Tokyo, etc).7.

I drive through there at least twice a month out of sheer curiosity every time I go to Little Tokyo - just to eye ball the transition.Those homeless encampments in downtown LA are (without sounding insensitive) are living on borrowed time. 

Baltimore is not New York, Hong Kong, or Tokyo, where you can genuinely say that parking is at a premium.

Good luck in Tokyo.  

The next is actually this week on Thursday at Olympic (1601 Military Rd, Buffalo, NY 14217, corner of Sheridan and Military) at 7PM.  

Would like to ask for some advice on a deal in the works - 12 unit multi-family in the Tokyo area in Japan.The building is a reinforced concrete (RC) structure, which is common here due to earthquake codes.

We are very flexible on unit size (were living in Tokyo, Japan, before this).

I am from Atlanta, Georgia, but currently live in Tokyo, Japan.
