    Evergrande Delusions & Chitty Chetrit Bang Bang

    This week, we dive into 2 operatic stories of ruin on different continents. We begin with the tale of Hui Ka Yan, a Chinese property tycoon who went from being a steelworker to one of the world’s richest men, before his firm Evergrande collapsed and sank the country’s real estate market with it. Hui has just been sentenced to life in prison. Then, we beam into a New York law firm boardroom, where one of CRE’s preeminent girthy lads, Meyer Chetrit, has given an extraordinary deposition as creditors pursue the Chetrit Group over hundreds of millions of dollars in personal guarantees. And finally, Blackstone’s finding the secular tailwinds in the marina business are strong enough to set sail. Sponsors:1) This episode is supported by Bravo Capital, a leading HUD and bridge lender.

    CW's Inside Man & Newmark's Weekend at Bernie's

    This week, we put on our toques and head to the TSX, where Meyer Orbach and Josh Gotlib are on a fascinating multifamily caper with their REIT GO Residential. We then take a back door into a special-servicer war, with Greystone accusing rival CWCapital of stealing its trade secrets to poach its business and talent. Finally, we head to a palatial, soon-to-be-empty office at 125 Park, where we take stock of the legacy of longtime Newmark CEO Barry Gosin – and what exactly a new leader will be coming into.

    Man on Wire: Michael Stern On the Record

    In this bonus episode, we sit down with JDS Development Group boss Michael Stern, one of the builders synonymous with the luxury condo market in New York and more recently in Miami. Stern talks through home runs like Walker Tower in Chelsea, strikeouts (though he disagrees) like the Brooklyn Tower, and 11th-inning odysseys like the skinny Billionaires’ Row supertall 111 West 57th St. Outside of addressing specific litigation (there’s lots of it) and live deals, Michael got seriously candid about all the aspects of the development game that insiders care about, from lining up investors to construction intricacies to the risk-reward math.

    Only Mortals: The Reichmanns, Pt. III

    The final part of our special trilogy on the Reichmanns traces how the mother of all megaprojects became a siren song for Olympia & York. Everything that had brought them to these heights – the creative financing, the cinematic self-belief, the ability to convince others and themselves they could pull it all off – worked against them at London's Canary Wharf, and we talk through the aftermath of the collapse and the legacy they left behind. Featuring all-time characters like Kentucky hustler G. Ware Travelstead, Canadian pirate Robert Campeau and the Iron Lady herself, this is the climax of one of the most epic journeys in all business.

    Apex Predators: The Reichmanns, Pt. II

    Pt. II of our special episode on the Reichmanns takes us to the ultimate proving ground of Manhattan. We do a tick-tock of how Olympia & York pulled off the CRE deal of the century, buying 10 million square feet of prime office space for just $33 a square foot and beating up some of the city's blue bloods along the way. Then, they go even bigger: the development of the World Financial Center in Battery Park City is a showcase of all their talents – risk appetite, design, salesmanship, negotiating, creative leverage – coming together at scale. We also look at their legendary alliance with the Bronfman family and their adventures in corporate raiding.    Sponsors:1) This episode is supported by Bravo Capital, a leading HUD and bridge lender.

    Men of Destiny: The Reichmanns, Pt. I

    This special episode dives deep into the story of the Reichmanns, an extraordinary family that probably contributed more to the financialization of CRE than anyone else. It’s a tale of survival, grit, chutzpah, genius (on many fronts), generosity, unchecked ambition, heart-stopping leverage, and eventually, ruin. We follow the family's incredible journey from the Orthodox synagogues of prewar Beled, Hungary to the international free zone of Tangier, to the North American base in Toronto, and eventually, the apex predator of Manhattan. We discuss the tragedies that shaped the Reichmanns and their approaches to both commerce and philanthropy, the deals that set up the juggernaut in Toronto, and the characters at the heart of one of the world's richest, most powerful, and most secretive clans.

    Stairway to Heaven & Parkmerced's Odyssey

    This week, it’s time for some California dreamin': We ascend Orange County’s Ziggurat, a stairway to heaven or SoCal’s biggest development clusterfuck, depending on your flavor. The hulking structure and the quest to sell it showcase government incompetence at its most extreme. We then head up to San Francisco, where a whirlwind of fascinating dealmaking has gone down at the city's largest rental complex, Parkmerced – New York-based Yellowstone has just taken over the development portion of the property, ending a long quest by Robert Rosania to hold on.
