The Bisnow 2013 SuperBroker 50 #31-40

This is a list of some of the most creative and successful dealmakers in America (and the teams they represent). We'd order them alphabetically, but our readers clamor for rankings. How do we decide? Not square feet or dollars, nor lifetime achievement, but our sense of buzz and impact today. Sure, that's seriously unscientific, but we hope it makes the list more provocative, debatable, and fun. Of course, things change quickly, so the next list may be very different.

Nutshell: Multifamily sales machine for smaller deals that add up to very big stuff.
Recent: Focusing on multifamily, does 12 deals a month, which equates to 40 buildings given portfolios (one was 33 for Dune last month), which he calculates as 300 calls a day; No. 1 in the Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn but can also sell 17 East Village buildings for Westbrook and Magnum to Kushner and increasingly works with institutionals; half the value of the 140 deals and $2.5B he anticipates this year will come from Manhattan.
Place in history: Doesn't look old enough to have a history but knows everyone and better yet, knows their building tastes and pocketbooks. May become first human being to morph into a telephone.
