NOVEMBER 2023

Dear Friends, Once again we're reaching the end of another year. 2023 has been rough for so many reasons both in and outside of the US. We've struggled, as we assume you have, to process it all. In the end, we are fixers, helpers, doers and community builders. So being at a loss for ways to fix, help and do has been demoralizing to say the least. It took a minute but we have an idea and want your participation! For our December newsletter we are creating a shopping section Shop Local for the Holidays for local businesses. If you have a business, whether it's product or service, we invite you to click the link above and provide the business name, a short blurb about the business and your website link. SUBMISSIONS DUE NOVEMBER 20. *Still in progress is a charity component, stay tuned for more on that! The December newsletter will be live on November 27 to provide ample time for shipping. In a digital world, it's easy to forget there are real people behind the headlines . Let's reinforce our community ties and hopefully help some folks in need at the same time. It's the Brooklyn way after all. Below please find the NYC real estate news in a nutshell. With love,
Judy and Dawn We're not just real estate advisors, we're your resource for all things Brooklyn. Connectors who stay in the know, we love helping people. Whatever your issue, we'll get you an answer. Do you need help finding a specific resource? Ask us, we're happy to help.
