Pay it Forward Time for Hoboken – Remember SuperStorm Sandy?
Categories: Hoboken Condos
The People of Southern Louisiana Desperately Need Our Help!
When Sandy hit, people from all over the country came to our aid. We live part-time in New Orleans and were there the past two weeks. We just returned to Hoboken last night and felt that we need to get the word out up here. Baton Rouge and the surrounding areas are devastated. People have lost everything. They and their pets are in dire need. We can help!

Are Hoboken Condos Getting Larger?
Categories: Hoboken Condos
I’ve had a few readers inquire or suggest that Hoboken prices are going up because the properties are getting bigger. Curious to see if that was true, I plotted out average size for the past few years. Sorry, folks, but I don’t see a correlation. True this does not include sales at the Toll Brothers properties made through the sales office (some of them are quite large) but neither do my sales figures.
