Richard Steinberg isn't so bad. He's a little over the top, a little too much energy maybe, talks a bit fast, always has to go, go, go. But I sorta look forward to seeing him on Selling New York. And if you want to really see arrogant, watch that other show on Bravo.
I know at least one of the Core agents that usually appear on the show switched employers. I know Kirk Rundhaug did. I would post a link but not sure that's allowed here. I guess you can google the name and see the articles.
Although I would like to see Maggie from Core a tad bit more. I think the last time I saw her, she was trying to get a townhouse listing which had an indoor pool in the center of the house. I was just thinking why. It will be impossible to sell, the smell, the humidity, and the space it takes up in that Manhattan townhouse. And it hasn't sold yet.
A few others have left too, but I don't recall seeing them on selling New York. Osher, the boss, said "As a boutique agency who provides the highest level of service in our industry to our agents, we expect a high level of performance". In other words, high pressure job, you'd better selling or you're out.
But Kirk didn't seem to have that problem, he went to Elliman for a better title, more money, and to sell new projects. Also, Elliman is the firm that has 2 agents on that other show on Bravo. He could appear on there sometime in the future.
Thanks for posting the link, wsj. Saves us all a little search time.
Wow, was it necessary for Osher to bad-mouth the departing agents? So they lost 10 out of how many? Thought someone mentioned 1/3 of the firm in the comment section. Is Core on its way out?
Great move for Kirk. Will miss him on SNY. Interesting to hear that he's also a designer. Hope we see him again on HGTV.
