Yes, we’re gay!

With the senate voting to make marriage equality the irrevocable law of the land, in Ep. 5 of Real Talk, Steven and Tim get real about their personal experiences with being gay men in NYC and America. 
 
And while loving freely is accepted now, for most of their adult lives, gay marriage was not legal. 
 
In this episode, top-producing brokers Steven & Tim share their very different coming-out stories, talk homophobia and being gay in the real estate world. Steven tells us about the time a wealthy client asked him to go to JONAH- Jewish orthodox conversion therapy, dating women and parenting as a gay couple. Tim talks acceptance and the unconditional love and support he’s received from his family and friends. 
 
They both agree, lots of gay men in real estate….and that’s because most have taste.

Character Over Ca$h

With everything going on in the world, Steven and Tim value standing up for what's right, even if that means losing out on a deal. 
 
In Ep. 4 of Real Talk, Steven and Tim reflect on putting character over ca$h. Steven lets us in on how he felt about Kanye West's "Ye's" recent antisemitic comments, almost getting rid of his Adidas Stan Smiths, and living in Israel in the 90s during terrorist attacks. Tim shares his thoughts on turning down business for the client's sake and keeping it real, even if that doesn't benefit his bottom line. 
 
Tune in to hear them explore what it means to value people over money.

Losing to Win

We all love instant gratification, but in some cases, it’s a lot more rewarding to lose in the short term. In Episode 3 of #RealTalk, Steven and Tim talk about all the times they’ve lost to win. From not getting the listing to struggles with fitness, relationships, and careers, Steven and Tim dive deep. 
 
Tim brings up his past relationships and how letting go helped him find the right one. Steven knew at 16 that he wanted to be a Real Estate Advisor to the stars, but instead, he chose to explore the world and lived in Israel, South Africa, and Australia before starting his current career. And for both Steven & Tim, at the time, these seemed like losses. But they now realize that sometimes you have to lose to win in life.

Growing Pains

On the second episode of #RealTalk, Steven & Tim discuss growing pains. Steven opens up about his experience with cancer in 2008. Tim reflects upon past relationships and how they've shaped him.
They have both realized that moving forward sometimes entails taking 5 steps backward. And while that may not be ideal, being uncomfortable is a true sign of growth. 
Join them as they discuss the hurdles, the uncomfortable situations, the uncertainty, and the messiness of growth! And how they've learned just to keep it moving.
