About this episode

This episode discusses mental health strategies and the emotional challenges faced in NYC's real estate market.

On this week's episode of Talking New York Real Estate, Vince sits down with Brown Harris Stevens' broker, Matthew Melinger and Daniel Boatman of Compass, to discuss the mental health strategies, the boundaries, the routines, and sometimes the very human struggles that no one sees. We often hear about the sky-high commissions, the glamorous penthouses and the thrill of closing a deal but rarely do we hear about the emotional toll, the stress and the sacrifices behind the scenes. If you've ever wondered what it takes to survive and even thrive in Manhattan's real estate market, this episode is for you. Filmed as part of the Mastery of Real Estate (MORE) Network, powered by Brown Harris Stevens.
