In a fast-paced city like New York, where architectural trends shift by the season, what does it mean to build something that truly lasts?In this episode, we sit down with Carlos Saavedra, Co-Founder and Principal of ECKSTRØM, a Brooklyn-based townhouse development atelier dedicated to the restoration and reinvention of historic properties. Carlos and his team operate on a powerful, defiant premise: Crafted, Not Replicated. Architecture with permanence, not momentum.Tune in as we unpack ECKSTRØM's unique methodology, exploring how they seamlessly integrate deep architectural rigor with behavioral intelligence. We dive into the philosophy of developing physical structure and human experience as a single discipline, the art of honoring historic New York craftsmanship, and how bringing a design-led perspective to real estate development allows them to execute projects with uncompromised quality from acquisition to final detail.
Send us a question/idea/opinion direct via text message!The May Cotality Home Value Index (HVI) results are officially in, delivering a perfectly flat 0.0% national movement. While regional variability persists under the surface - with Christchurch nudging up 0.4% and Wellington softening by 0.3% - the broader market continues to track sideways as buyers hold the pricing power but sellers refuse to capitulate. This week, Nick Goodall and Kelvin Davidson answer a brilliant listener question from Matthew, digging into the data to debunk the mainstream media narrative that a "glut" of townhouses is dragging down the Auckland property market. We also unpack the surprising resilience of the new build sector with building consents climbing to 39,000, dismantle claims that New Zealand has become a "tax haven" for Australian investors, and analyse RBNZ Chief Economist Paul Conway's latest hints on short-term inflation.This week we discuss:May HVI National Breakdown: Why a 0.0% national change signals a long, plain-vanilla winter of sideways tracking.The Auckland Townhouse Myth: Breaking down the suburb-level data proving townhouse values are performing similarly to standalone homes (both down 3% annually).Building Consent Resilience: Why the current annualised track of 39,000 consents shows a construction sector vastly more robust than during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC).The Australian "Tax Haven" Headline: Dismantling trans-Tasman media hype regarding stamp duty, bright-line changes, and cross-border tax complexities.Paul Conway's Inflation Hints: Insights from the RBNZ Chief Economist's recent webinar and what it reveals about the internal vs. external OCR committee split.The 5-Month Election Runway: Anticipating the upcoming structural slowdown as capital gains tax debates re-emerge.Sign up for news and insights or contact on LinkedIn, X @NickGoodall_CL or @KDavidson_CL and email ngoodall@cotality.com or kdavidson@cotality.comThis podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, or tax advice.

Real Estate Investor Dad Podcast ( Investing / Investment in Canada )
Condo townhouses can be one of the best real estate investing opportunities in Edmonton, but only if you know how to do your due diligence properly. In this episode, Wayne and Gabby answer a listener question from a new investor who is buying a condo townhouse in Edmonton and wants to understand how much weight should be placed on the condo document review, reserve fund study, condo fees, special assessments, and overall strength of the condo corporation. Wayne explains why condo document reviews are one of the most important parts of buying a condo townhouse as an investment property. A townhouse can have great numbers, strong rent potential, and appreciation upside, but a poorly managed condo corporation or weak reserve fund can ruin the deal. Wayne and Gabby also discuss why investors should review condo documents carefully, why hiring a professional condo document review company matters, what to look for in reserve fund studies, and why a special assessment does not always mean the condo corporation is bad. They also share a recent example from one of their own Edmonton townhouse purchases where the reserve fund study history raised questions and required further investigation. Later in the episode, Wayne and Gabby answer another listener question about basement suite layout: is it better to build two small bedrooms or one larger bedroom with more living space? They explain why tenant profile matters, why more bedrooms do not always mean better tenants or better long-term results, and why they often prefer a spacious one-bedroom basement suite for a single person or couple. If you are buying a condo townhouse, reviewing condo documents, investing in Edmonton real estate, or planning a basement suite, this episode will help you think through the decision like a real investor. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why condo document reviews are critical before buying a condo townhouse Why a good rental property can still be ruined by a bad condo corporation Why Wayne puts major weight on the reserve fund and condo corporation Why condo townhouses can be one of the best opportunities in Edmonton right now Why more condo corporations are poorly managed than most investors realize Why investors need to review bylaws, meeting minutes, financials, and reserve fund studies Why a reserve fund study should be updated every five years in Alberta Why a missing or outdated reserve fund study can be a warning sign Why a special assessment does not always mean the condo corporation is bad Why condo fee increases can sometimes be responsible long-term planning Why investors should hire a condo document review company Why Wayne teaches students how to understand condo documents instead of blindly relying on others Why basement suite layout should be based on tenant profile Why two bedrooms are not always better than one bedroom Why Wayne and Gabby prefer basement suites for singles or couples Why natural light and spacious layouts matter in basement suites Why more people in a suite can create more management issues Why strong systems make real estate investing easier Upcoming Events Edmonton Garden Suites 101 June 12, 2026 Edmonton, Alberta www.reimasters.ca/edmontongardensuites101 REI Masters Edmonton Real Estate Investing Bus Tour August 22, 2026 www.reimasters.ca/edmontonbustour About Your Hosts Wayne & Gabby Hillier are full-time real estate investors and real estate investing coaches based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan townhouse—one of the largest private residences in New York City—became a central location in many of the allegations brought by survivors who said they were trafficked and abused as teenagers. The mansion on East 71st Street was described in multiple lawsuits and depositions as a place where Epstein would bring young girls to meet him and, in some cases, powerful associates. Several accusers said they were recruited under the guise of providing massages, only to find themselves pressured into escalating sexual acts. Survivors described a system in which young girls were transported to the townhouse, introduced to Epstein, and then sometimes directed by his assistants to participate in encounters that prosecutors later described as part of a broader trafficking scheme. The home itself, filled with expensive artwork and unusual décor, was frequently mentioned in testimony as one of the primary settings where Epstein carried out the exploitation.Accounts from victims and witnesses portrayed the townhouse as more than just a private residence; they described it as a hub within Epstein's operation. Some survivors alleged that the building was used to host wealthy guests, where young women and girls were presented in social settings or sent upstairs to meet Epstein. Lawsuits also referenced Epstein's staff—including house managers and assistants—who were said to help manage the flow of visitors and victims. While many details remain disputed and the full scope of what occurred there has never been definitively established in court, the allegations tied to the Manhattan mansion have remained among the most disturbing elements of the broader Epstein case, illustrating how his wealth and access allowed him to operate for years within one of the most prominent neighborhoods in the United States.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Anna Foster is the founder and creative director of the sustainable fashion brand ELV Denim – a company that has saved thousands of pairs of jeans from going into landfill, upcycling them into something genuinely desirable instead. She started her career in magazines and worked as a fashion editor for 20 years at titles such as Exit and i-D, before becoming fashion director at Lula and fashion director-at-large at Australian title RUSSH. Since launching ELV – short for East London Vintage – in 2018 she was won a slew of awards, nominations and accolades, including Responsible Brand of The Year from Country & Town House and Walpole's Brands of Tomorrow 2025. In this episode, she talks about: why women are born to innovate; what happens to our old clothes; reworking existing garments into something new; finding all her makers within a three mile radius of the studio; celebrating skill; the issues with denim and how ELV strives to solve them; valuing things other people don't want; her dislike of stretch denim; being an ‘environmental enthusiast'; extending her material palette and making pieces from old hotel linen; the importance of collaboration; and the meaning of the word luxury. Important fact check: Grant misread some of his statistics in this episode. We produce between 4.5 to 6 billion pairs of jeans a year and a pair of jeans uses 3,800 litres of water to produce. We're happy to correct these errors. Support the show
New builds and townhouses alike have become the best option for first home buyers looking to get into the market. Townhouses offer a lower-cost alternative to standalone homes without having to fully commit to apartment living, and new builds often mean low-deposit loans and easier access for first home buyers. Problem is, the boom of new build townhouses is quickly slowing down - they're no longer classed as new builds, thus no longer as easy of a first option. It's not just a problem for potential buyers - it also means that those looking to sell the townhouses they purchased new a few years back, are waiting much longer for them to sell for not much more than what they were purchased for.

Originally known as the Herbert N. Straus House, this imposing Upper East Side mansion was designed by architect Horace Trumbauer and completed in 1932. Although commissioned for Herbert Straus—the son of Macy's co-owners—he never lived in it. In 1944, Straus's heirs, facing prohibitive property costs, donated the unfinished building to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, which initially used it as a hospital. Later, from 1962 to 1989, the mansion served as the location for the Birch Wathen School, a private K–12 academy, before being sold to retailer Leslie Wexner (for $13.2 million), who renovated the opulent interior. Eventually, Jeffrey Epstein came to reside in the mansion from the mid-1990s until his death.Over the decades, the building transformed dramatically—from a rare, institutional-like school and hospital to one of Manhattan's largest private residences (estimated at over 20,000 sq ft and spanning nine lavish floors). Under Epstein, it took on a darker reputation, becoming the site of serious criminal investigations into underage sex trafficking. After his death, the townhouse was sold in 2021 for around $51 million, though its legacy—rooted in education and later tainted by abuse—remains a deeply complex chapter in New York's architectural and social history.To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.heraldsun.com/latest-news/article238269028.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In the early 1990s, specifically from 1992 to 1995, Jeffrey Epstein leased a former Iranian diplomatic townhouse at 34 East 69th Street in Manhattan—property that the U.S. State Department had taken over after diplomatic relations with Iran ended. He paid $15,000 per month for the lease, and at some point sublet it to attorney Ivan Fisher and others. The State Department later sued Epstein, alleging he had violated the lease terms by subletting without permission and failed to make proper rent payments, ultimately seeking to evict him.This arrangement has drawn attention because, at the same time Epstein was building his reputation as a financial advisor and philanthropist, he leveraged government-leased real estate to house his associates. The legal case underscores a pattern of Epstein navigating institutional systems—from government leases to elite circles—often stretching or disregarding the rules while maintaining a facade of legitimacy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/rosiegray/jeffrey-epstein-state-department

On today's show, we're chatting with Hilliary—a vintage collector and event producer who's building community at the intersection of sustainability and style. Hilliary is the founder of Circle of Friends, where she hosts The Stoop Series—a live interview series that's making circular fashion accessible and inspiring. With Circle of Friends, she's using her platform to elevate the voices of vintage dealers, sustainable brands, and circular economy innovators, showing people why secondhand should always be the first choice. And if you're a collector yourself, you're going to love this conversation. In this episode, Hilliary shares her journey with circular fashion – how she fell in love with vintage markets while studying abroad in Florence, to her growing silver collection of hosting and homewares. Plus, how she's restoring a 1899 Brooklyn townhouse entirely with vintage and secondhand finds. Oh yeah – and we talk Brimfield, she's a Brimfield fanatic, just like me. What I love about Hilliary's approach is that she's building a vintage-filled life through relationships and community – she's built connections with vendors at markets like Brimfield who remember her, save pieces for her, and have become genuine friends. Very within the ethos of Circle of Friends. This is a really fun one – let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [4:20] Hilliary grew up a fashion-lover, and her first big purchase was saving up to buy a Kate Spade backpack. [7:44] Her journey into a sustainable fashion career.

There are concerns housing developers are paying little attention to design and/or comfort. Christchurch building company, KR Construction, and the Green Building Council are questioning whether townhouses are fit for purpose. They claim many new builds are getting far too hot and have moisture issues. KR Construction Director Dan Richardson told Mike Hosking townhouses are a particularly new type of build. He says standalone houses have been built for about 150 years, while townhouses have only been hitting the market more in the last 10.

Prince Andrew has faced mounting scrutiny over multiple visits to Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan townhouse, particularly the infamous 2010 trip captured in photos and surveillance footage showing him waving goodbye to Epstein at the door. Andrew has admitted to staying there for several days after Epstein's release from jail, calling it a “mistake” but insisting the purpose was to end their friendship. However, numerous reports, including witness accounts and court filings, indicate his visits were far more frequent and intimate than publicly acknowledged. Epstein's staff, including housekeeper Juan Alessi, alleged that Andrew was seen receiving massages and spending extended time with Epstein and his associates. Other witnesses described Andrew being present during gatherings where underage girls were allegedly trafficked.Despite his repeated denials, the optics of those visits have haunted the Duke of York. The 2010 stay, in particular, took place years after Epstein's 2008 conviction, leading many to question why Andrew would maintain contact with a known sex offender. His 2019 BBC Newsnight interview only intensified criticism after his bizarre claim that he stayed at Epstein's home simply because it was “convenient.” Public outrage grew as court documents tied Andrew's name to Epstein's flight logs, and Virginia Giuffre accused him of sexual abuse at both Epstein's townhouse and other properties — allegations Andrew continues to deny. The scandal has since resulted in his expulsion from royal duties and permanent damage to his public reputation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
For your consideration: TOWNHOUSE Graveyard Bunker is back, but tonight we're not discussing history with a Halloween twist. Tonight, your humble host thought he'd tell you a real spook story. I don't believe in the supernatural, but I still, almost thirty years later, have no logical explanation for the series of strange events my family experienced in a certain house, in a certain place, over the course of three years in the mid-90s. Perhaps you do. Names and certain details/events have been changed or lightly fictionalised to protect the living. Out of respect for the dead, the rest has been told exactly as it occurred.

In lawsuits filed beginning in 2022–2023, the central allegation is that Leon Black sexually assaulted a then-teenage girl inside Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan townhouse in 2002. The plaintiff, referred to as “Jane Doe,” claims she was trafficked by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell—and that Epstein directed her to provide Black with a “massage” that escalated into rape in a third-floor massage room. She further contends she was autistic and born with Mosaic Down Syndrome, vulnerabilities that the complaint says were exploited; she alleges Black used force, sex toys, and violence, inflicting physical injuries and psychological trauma.Black's legal team forcefully denies the accusations, calling them baseless and “frivolous.” He has sought to dismiss the case on procedural grounds, challenging the statute of limitations, the revival of old claims under New York law, and jurisdictional issues. A federal judge declined to dismiss one version of the claim, ruling that the victim's pleading under New York City's Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law could proceed, while other lawsuits—such as one by Cheri Pierson making similar claims—have been withdrawn or dismissed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Originally known as the Herbert N. Straus House, this imposing Upper East Side mansion was designed by architect Horace Trumbauer and completed in 1932. Although commissioned for Herbert Straus—the son of Macy's co-owners—he never lived in it. In 1944, Straus's heirs, facing prohibitive property costs, donated the unfinished building to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, which initially used it as a hospital. Later, from 1962 to 1989, the mansion served as the location for the Birch Wathen School, a private K–12 academy, before being sold to retailer Leslie Wexner (for $13.2 million), who renovated the opulent interior. Eventually, Jeffrey Epstein came to reside in the mansion from the mid-1990s until his death.Over the decades, the building transformed dramatically—from a rare, institutional-like school and hospital to one of Manhattan's largest private residences (estimated at over 20,000 sq ft and spanning nine lavish floors). Under Epstein, it took on a darker reputation, becoming the site of serious criminal investigations into underage sex trafficking. After his death, the townhouse was sold in 2021 for around $51 million, though its legacy—rooted in education and later tainted by abuse—remains a deeply complex chapter in New York's architectural and social history.To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.heraldsun.com/latest-news/article238269028.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In the early 1990s, specifically from 1992 to 1995, Jeffrey Epstein leased a former Iranian diplomatic townhouse at 34 East 69th Street in Manhattan—property that the U.S. State Department had taken over after diplomatic relations with Iran ended. He paid $15,000 per month for the lease, and at some point sublet it to attorney Ivan Fisher and others. The State Department later sued Epstein, alleging he had violated the lease terms by subletting without permission and failed to make proper rent payments, ultimately seeking to evict him.This arrangement has drawn attention because, at the same time Epstein was building his reputation as a financial advisor and philanthropist, he leveraged government-leased real estate to house his associates. The legal case underscores a pattern of Epstein navigating institutional systems—from government leases to elite circles—often stretching or disregarding the rules while maintaining a facade of legitimacy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/rosiegray/jeffrey-epstein-state-department
