Ruben Ruban, CCIM

I'm proud to be part of the @TreppWire podcast team that is releasing our 300th podcast episode tonight.

@BobKnakal @BKRealEstateAdv Bob, enjoy your time working outside. I often do the same (with a cigar 😉).

The suburban life!! But no matter where I’m at, you know I’m always working on @BKRealEstateAdv even at a park while I wait for my car to be serviced. Happy Rosh Hashanah

Wow... Kaiser Permanente just sold a massive 445k sq ft office tower and adjacent 250k sq ft parking garage in Oakland for just $14M, per TRD That equates to just ~$20 per square feet... Kaiser has been consolidating and reducing office space as employees have been settling into remote work according to SF GATE This is one of several high profile office towers across the US that has traded hands for around land value or less...

@Bethazor1 Sorry to hear 🤦🏽‍♂️ Good luck and be safe 👍🏽

Insurance update! South Fla Recent renewal premium down 15% from budget! Thanks for working hard for us! @JamieLevenshon

$44bn worth of loans set to mature this month... Could get interesting heading into 2024.

Just heard a new term: "spec sublease" Tenant goes ahead and spends their TI to build out a space they are not occupying to attract subtenants. It's a weird world out there in office.

WSJ reporting this morning that investors are forecasting that the Fed will actually cut rates in as little as 4 months. Correlates with what I’m hearing from clients who are worried about the impact on margin from deflation of prices. Time for the FED to take it’s foot off the brake.

Big shout out to @RubenRuban for sharing the @DNAofCRE survey with his @MiamiRealtors leadership and for helping us spread the word! Thanks so much, Ruben. If you have a local chapter or organization, please introduce me so I can invite them to be a partner in the survey and with us at theBrokerList too!! Thanks for your leadership, Ruben! #DNAofCRE @BuildoutInc @dayharrison @cremarketing_ Please take the survey: bit.ly/dnaofcre2024

@AvivaRealEstate 100% yes 👍🏽. I’m sure like any service it varies from market to market. It’s definitely used here in South Florida.

CREXI for the brokerage? Yes / No? Why / Why Not?

@AvivaRealEstate Karma is a… 😜

CRE X - A Broker tried to screw me out of 1% of a leasing commission. He failed. Now he wants proprietary information on another deal I just closed. How do I respond?

@BobKnakal has an amazing track record (and memory 💾) in the #cre business. 👍🏽 Last week at #trd South Florida Real Estate Forum, I was excited to introduce a good client/friend to Bob Knakal (I know, one broker introducing a client to another broker sounds weird 🤷🏽‍♂️). When I introduced Bob to my client and mentioned that they have assets in NYC, my client tells Bob that another family member handles the NYC buildings. Bob asked my client what is his family member’s name? Without missing a beat Bob replies, “Yes I know him. I sold him XYZ deal (Bob knew the exact address) 15 years ago.” Small world 🌎 I was already impressed with the encyclopedic knowledge the Bob has, but it was amazing to see his memory in action. ❔Do you remember all your deals? Not just the bigger more memorable deals? 🧐

Thanks @CREanalyst1
