there are storefronts here in the #EastVillage of #Manhattan warehoused for DECADES. there are no real realtors in #nyc anymore. they are all #WallStreet firms that bought the names of realtors, then bought all the small and family-owned properties during the Giuliani and Bloomberg years.
THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED COLLUSION: investment companies warehousing buildings because they don't make money from being landlords. they make money from holding the properties & engineering false scarcity.
