Chances are, you were referred to this page from my humor page. 

Where that page is a compendium of my humorous work, this page is intended as a means of demonstrating my ability to use words like "compendium." 

Following is a short listing of a few web-accessible examples of my journalistic writing (this is by no means a comprehensive list as the majority of my written work was never published on the web).

1. I have contributed to the The New York Post since fall of 2003. Although this story - which rated department stores - was for the Features section, I work primarily for the NYP Home Section.

   • January 24: I've had the privilege of living in Hell's Kitchen for the past several years, so this article (Page 1, Page 2)about new luxury buildings in the neghborhood (co-written with Russell Scott Smith) held particular significance.

   • January 17: This real estate finance piece (Page 1, Page 2)discussed the closing costs that can, for example, make selling an $880,000 home for $965,00 one year later into a $32,000 net loss for the seller.

   • December 20: Lots of stuff in this issue. Lease buyouts, a $13.5 million hotel, and a chart that took three hours to make and was supposed to be much bigger (yeah, the little yellow thing).

   • December 13: Finance story number four, on pre-approval. Page 1, 2

   • December 6: My third finance story was about guarantors and co-signers. Page 1, 2

   • November 29: My second Post finance story, on mortgage points.

   • November 22: This story covers a new furniture showroom called Hadco, in Dumbo (the picture's of, uh, another guy). I also contributed to the "gadgets" story that starts on that page and continues here.

   • November 8: In addition to writing stories, I do a lot of caption and headline-writing, like this one which I liked so much that that I'm linking to it.

   • November 1: My first finance column, on the perils of Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI). Page 1, Page 2

   • October 25: I wrote this story on bachelor pads with Alisa Conaboy.

   • October 18: I really liked this story, on the tax benefits for freelance workers. I also wrote this story about AMA, the (low- to mid-income) real estate company run by the rest of the Trump family.

   • October 4: A series of interviews with homeowners renovating their own apartments. 1, 2, 3.
