Session 1: The Basics of Home-Buying in NYC
In our first event, StreetEasy economist Nancy Wu gave an overview of the current NYC housing market. She also offered helpful instructions for using StreetEasy data to make informed shopping decisions. Next, StreetEasy product manager Peter Lim explained the StreetEasy tools and features we created to make your home search more efficient.
Afterward, Compass agent and certified StreetEasy ExpertScott Savory joined to discuss how he helps New Yorkers go from dreaming about a home to successfully closing on one. He focused on three key stages every hopeful homeowner needs to navigate — and the industry pros you want to have in your corner for each.
