There's no segment of the real estate market that's more exciting, creative, and forward-thinking than retail. - Robert K. Futterman

I remember everything…if you remember everything, then it's easy to pass on what you've learned and relate those experiences to other people…Be a sponge, remember everything and articulate it accurately.

Be extremely diligent, stay focused, don’t get off task, and don't forget what you do. If you're in retail leasing, don't try to sell hotels. Don't try to lease some industrial real warehouse in the Bronx. Don't try to do some office deal. You're in retail. Stay focused in retail…Focus on what you do best.

I have kids and they're millennials, so I see their patterns. I see how they get their news, I see how they communicate, I see how they socialize and do their shopping and eating habits and patterns. Being an owner of a company and a manager with an enormous amount of millennials in the workforce, my kids have helped me realize how different and how times have changed and how we have to adapt. I find the millennials to be fascinating.
