BLDG Management Co., Inc. and exclusive marketing agent, Corcoran New Development, are pleased to announce the launch of STELLA LES - a boutique luxury rental building that features a “club inspired” amenity offering. Located at 251 East 2nd Street – just north of Houston - new residents will have access to the best of the East Village and the Lower East Side, two of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
“When designing STELLA LES I wanted to create a building that respects the area’s rich heritage. In doing so, we researched important people and places that shaped the Lower East Side,” explained Lloyd Goldman, Founder and President of BLDG. “The actress and entrepreneur Stella Adler immediately stood out as an incredible woman with deep neighborhood roots. The more you learn about Adler, the more you want to sing her praises. She should be remembered for her talent, intelligence, and strength. I named our new building in her honor.”
Envisioned by architects Rotwein + Blake, the 10-story STELLA LES offers 44 one and two-bedroom apartments, many with private terraces. In addition, there is one coveted studio residence that leads to an oversized 244 sq. ft. outdoor terrace with BBQ grill. All homes feature oversized floor-to-ceiling windows with sunshades, white oak hardwood flooring, fully built-out custom closets, and in-unit washers and dryers. A ‘Latch’ entry system allows convenient yet secure apartment access via smartphone app, and Smart thermostats provide both comfort and energy efficiency.
Kitchens at STELLA LES are designed with a full suite of Bosch appliances and Scavolini custom cabinetry with under-cabinet LED lighting. The quartz countertops are both beautiful and durable, and electronics can be charged via the built-in UBS outlets. Residence baths are complete with modern white lacquer vanities, recessed LED-lit medicine cabinets, and luxurious showers with brushed-chrome faucets.
The club-like amenities provide STELLA LES residents beautiful spaces to connect and unwind. A state-of-the-art fitness center features equipment by Technogym with ample room for popular HIIT work outs and stretching. When it is time to relax, the penthouse lounge boasts a fireplace, large-screen television, billiards table, and hospitality kitchen.
This top-floor retreat flows out to a landscaped terrace with fire pit, BBQ grills, and lounge-style seating for exclusive use of residents and their guests. A surprising feature of the oasis is a custom putting green, and it is also is outfitted with a foosball table for hours of competition. Positioned on the 9th floor, the terrace provides uninterrupted spectacular 360 degree river, bridge and skyline views of the world’s greatest city.
Indoor public spaces such as the lobby, gym and the lounge are equipped with an ultra violet LED in-duct air purification system proactively treating the air in these areas by reducing airborne and surface contaminants and pollutants - including microbials, bacteria and viruses. Ultra violet devices can prevent viruses from circulating in the building while improving air quality for residents. One of the applications of this technology is ultraviolet germicidal irradiation in a building's HVAC system, a solution that BLDG chose when designing STELLA LES.
“STELLA LES is a much needed offering in a neighborhood where luxury rentals and amenities remain limited,” said Jodi Stasse, Executive Vice President of New Developments at The Corcoran Group. “The building’s façade and mid-rise height were designed to blend into the fabric of the neighborhood while standing out like a beautiful jewel box at night. Our interiors capture the Lower East Side’s unique and dynamic energy.”
Situated on Houston Street, where East 2nd Street meets Avenue C, STELLA LES is near multiple subway lines at the Second Avenue and Delancey Street stations. With proximity to public transit and a Citi Bike docking station on the corner, the entire city is within residents’ reach.
Rents at STELLA LES start at $3,255 for a studio, $3,590 for a one-bedroom, and $5,855 for a two-bedroom home. All pricing includes 2 months free on a 14-month lease and no fee. For more information, please visit www.stellales.com.

One of the most devastating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the lack of housing security, with so many people unable to pay their rent. The CDC has moved to remedy this with an eviction moratorium, which was recently extended to June 30th. It is easy to see trouble brewing in housing courts across the country. Some places are not creating alternative paths, hoping that landlords and tenants will resolve the back rent issues independently. Others are reinforcing their housing court staff to prepare for the influx of evictions served once the moratorium is lifted. A few cities, like New York City, are putting together mediation programs to provide a more regulated path and avoid mass evictions.
The Landlord-Tenant Mediation Project is meant to resolve disputes between landlords and tenants, including back rent. This project is meant to address any issue, and with much of the world living in places containing concrete, there can be many issues outside of rent hikes or the inability to pay rent. Most concrete structures can last for more than 100 years, but if it is not properly maintained, it can crumble. The project would allow tenants to bring up maintenance and safety concerns with landlords in a non-adversarial process. This can help both sides understand where the other party is coming from and allow a good faith effort to come up with a solution. Working together can strengthen community bonds to create a real sense of accountability and trust in a community.
The program in New York City is set up so that tenants and small landlords without legal representation can be referred to their borough's Community Dispute Resolution Center (CDRC) to find an alternative solution to eviction. This is designed to help both the tenants and the small landlords who are part of the nearly 64% of small businesses facing financial struggles at this time. By coming up with a plan to pay a reduced rent that gradually increases to cover the back rent due, the tenant doesn't need to worry once the eviction moratorium is lifted. The landlord will also be able to properly maintain the property with rent coming in.
Mediation is a process that can help prevent wasting judicial resources on matters that can be resolved outside of litigation. This process has effectively resolved foreclosure matters and provided a less adversarial option for divorces that allow all parties to gain from the dispute. Mediation has become a popular option over the years. In the 1960s about 11.5% of federal civil cases went to trial, while today, the percentage of cases that proceed to trial in the federal courts hovers around 1%. This reduction is due to mediation as an alternative to the courts.
Mediation typically costs less than a trial. It doesn't prevent the parties from proceeding to court if they cannot reach a resolution, but it is an excellent option. Mediation is also a better option than arbitration which can often lead to extremely high costs for one side, while mediation splits the costs more evenly between parties.
Another benefit of mediation is that it allows the parties to come to a solution together instead of the court or an arbitrator issuing a ruling. Mediation is a collaborative process that can help strengthen relationships and is a great community-building tool. This helps make communities safer by requiring the parties to compromise and see the dispute from the other side, meaning the landlords and tenants are less likely to resort to tactics meant to force the other side to accept their terms.
Mediation ensures that landlords don’t act irresponsibly, even in these testing times. However, preventing evictions isn’t the only responsibility that landlords must focus on at this time. Providing suitable living standards is vital if they wish to avoid disputes from tenants. And potential legal repercussions. This can range from using the right student housing design plans to ensuring that safety facilities are in place for all tenants. Crucially, they must ensure that all rental properties are priced fairly.
Ultimately, though, it’s in the landlord’s best interests too. A low turnover makes their life easier while reducing the level of potential financial exposure. Still, the fact that tenants will have a place they can call home without concerns about eviction is a crucial factor.
Mediation is not the only solution, but it is an excellent option. Mediation allows for a third party to help lessen the emotional impact of the process while guiding parties to build a resolution. Mediation also keeps the door open for litigation should the parties be unable to resolve their dispute.

How are you sleeping at night? Can you fall asleep easily? Do you stay asleep without any problems? If you answered no to any of these, it's time to look at why. Sleep, as you probably know, is important to your health. Without it, our bodies can't recover -- and if we go too long without it, this can actually be fatal. If you are having trouble going to sleep, you need to look at what's wrong and try and fix it. Here are some tips that can help you examine the source of your tossing and turning or discover the root of your insomnia.
Stress is often behind a restless night's sleep. Although stress is somewhat inescapable, especially during a pandemic, it can destroy your health in a multitude of ways. Some stress can be a good motivator, but the "bad" kind of stress can be destructive. You need to look at what's causing it and keeping you up at night.
What's changed in your life? Did someone die in your family? How is school or work going? Are you having problems in your relationships? For instance, you might be going through a divorce or experiencing marital issues. Between 40% and 50% of marriages end in divorce in the United States. All of these factors can lead to stress and worry that can keep you up at night.

While you may not be able to immediately solve these problems, there are steps you can take to relieve some of that anxiety you're feeling. There is no shame in going to therapy. Some people also find relief by exploring calming products from Budpop, which may help ease the mind and support more restful sleep during stressful times. Maybe go for a run. Take up meditation and yoga. Practicing mindfulness is also a great step. Are there areas in your work life or classes that could allow you to cut back to reduce stress? You may need to make a lifestyle change or a commitment to working on these issues; while this can be difficult, it can result in a better night's sleep.

Now that you know that you could have stress in your life, what happens next? You have therapy, exercise, and mediation. There are other ways to help you get to sleep. Some people turn to music and ASMR to help them relax and go to sleep. Why not try scents? It may seem simple, but U.S. retail sales of candle products are estimated at approximately $3.14 billion annually. It's been proven that aromatherapy can be used to help people get to sleep. Calming lavender appears to be the go-to for wanting to go to sleep. Rather than using candles, which can present a fire hazard, consider using an aromatherapy system or scented lotion before you go to bed. You can also reset the temperature in your bedroom, as most people sleep more soundly in a cooler space. Other suggestions might include changing your bed linens regularly, turning off your phone at least an hour before you go to sleep, or establishing a regular bedtime routine.
Sleep is important for your health. It's like when you shut down the computer when you are finished using it. You need to put down your body so that it can restart for the day. A lack of sleep can lead to help problems. You could end up gaining weight, have memory problems, and even put yourself at risk for diabetes. A lack of sleep can even be bad for your teeth and jaw -- or dental problems could be exacerbating your restless nights. If you grind your teeth at night or experience TMJ, you might toss and turn quite a bit. A dental check-up every six months is recommended in order to prevent cavities and other dental problems. Go to the dentist or pay a visit to your doctor to see whether there might be any underlying medical issues that could cause a lack of sleep (or be made worse by your insomnia).
You need to get some sleep. If you don't get enough proper sleep, you could end up running your body ragged. Look for the cause of why you can't sleep and treat the problem. When you get a good night's sleep, you will wake up with more energy and a positive look on your life.
Customer Relationship Management is a pillar for all sales teams the world over. For many people, purchasing property is one of the most vital decisions they’ll make in their lifetimes. This is why real estate businesses are built on relationships and trust.
In this age of automation and digital sales, CRM tools are becoming more essential for all businesses. It can be factual to say that industries are going through a digital revolution, where investing in CRM is a must. The real estate sector has not been left behind.
With the right CRM, tool realtors can collect crucial information about their clients and use it to provide personalized services. This information can include demographic data, real estate purchase history, past interests, and preferences.
In this post, we look at why successful real estate investors use CRM tools for real estate businesses and why you should invest in CRM in 2021.
One of the primary purposes of real estate CRM is lead generation. Real estate CRM helps agencies and their agents to reach out and follow up on various leads on multiple channels.
Lead management can become problematic, especially when they are scattered on various platforms. However, with CRM, you can compile them all in a single location whether they are from social media, your website, real estate portals, and many others.
Having multiple clients on multiple platforms can make or break your business. While it’s a sign that your efforts are paying off, you can lose them all in your act of trying to juggle between them. With real estate CRM, however, you’re able to communicate quickly with your current clients.
Real estate CRM also allows you to keep track and stay in touch with potential clients. Say, for example, you encounter a potential client who wants to purchase a home in the future. You can stay in touch as you anticipate closing a deal in the future.
You may also want to use a lead generation tool like Uplead, wherein you can get a personalized realtor email list with authentic contacts. Managing this tool will also help you gain more leads in the future.
Sales teams are always busy setting up meetings, moving from one meeting to another, and following up on customer inquiries. At times, they barely have time to sit down at their desks and make entries into your CRM tool.
However modern CRM tools are cloud-based. Your agents can work on their mobile devices as long as they have the internet. This gives them access to the CRM tool in their pockets no matter where they are. This kind of convenience boosts their productivity.
Also, real estate CRM tools lead to automation. This means that your agents eliminate redundant tasks and focus on the most important ones. For example, CRM helps automate responses to client queries so that an agent doesn’t have to necessarily be in the office to answer.
The amount you take to respond to client queries is a huge factor in the direction the deal takes. Did you know that agents increase their chances of closing a deal if they reach out to a client within five minutes of inquiry? The rapid the response, the higher the chances.
With the right real estate CRM, you can fasten the inquiry process. This is because most CRM tools nowadays come with auto-responders. You can configure them to respond to queries even when you’re not available to do so. Your client won’t have to wait for hours for you to respond.
Isn’t this amazing? And that’s not all. You can customize the messages according to the particular action taken by the client. This eliminates generic responses to the customer. It gives you a chance to create messages that are not only personalized but also engaging.
This way, your client already feels they’re part of the business. They know you mean it when you say that a member of your team will reach out when available.
Retaining your current clients is as important as obtaining new ones. Remember, relationships are some of the biggest factors that determine whether you succeed in real estate or not. This means that even after closing a deal, you need a platform that can help you maintain this relationship.
This is where real estate CRM comes in. The platform enables you to maintain constant communication through emails. You can dispatch occasional newsletters where you let them know about new deals, company activities, loyalty campaigns, or special deals for clients who refer other customers.
You can personalize this further by sending them birthday deals or sending a special message for their purchase anniversary.
Real estate businesses involve a lot of sensitive data. Think about all the information that exchanges hands during a deal; demographic data, location, and even bank account details. You wouldn’t want such information to land in the wrong hands.
When it comes to CRM tools, you ought to ensure that security features are top-notch, especially when the software is cloud-based. This gives your business little to worry about and also meets regulations.
Luckily, CRM companies have added serious security features externally. Data stored in the cloud is encrypted so it can’t be accessed by just anyone. Additionally, they have phishing and malware alerts where they’re notified if there are any malicious attempts to access the data.
Some firewalls protect realtor’s mobile devices even when they are offline.

Read MoreAs we continue to explore new ways to learn about and enjoy wine at home, this World Malbec Day (April 17), will be sharing with you our favorite Malbec’s around.Held annually to celebrate Argentina's flagship grape variety, Malbec Argentino, this year's Malbec World Day will honor the connection between Malbec and the country, culture, and people of Argentina.
Terrazas’ signature Reserva Malbec is synonymous with an intense color and aromas of fresh fruit, flowers, and spices. This wine has precise tannins that provide a soft, velvety texture and bright acidity that carries through the finish. The Reserva Malbec is the signature style of Terrazas, as it highlights the unique characteristics of the high elevation terroirs in Mendoza. (SRP: $19.99)
The Grand Malbec comes from three high-altitude vineyards that showcase different characteristics: Las Compuertas (3,510 ft) reveals red fruit aromas and flavors, round tannins and a distinctive elegance, while the rocky terroir of Paraje Altamira (3,608 ft) gives floral, aromatic spice notes. Los Chacayes (3,937 ft) completes the blend with beautiful color intensity along with structure, concentration and luminous freshness. This wine expresses the heights (literally) of Malbec. (SRP: $64.99)
Chakras are said to be “force centers” of energy and are considered to be the focal points for receiving and transmitting energy. Small, traditional vineyards in the Andes are called “chacras.” This Argentinian Malbec is a stunning representation of those energy forces from those Mendoza vineyards with bright and intense red violet color, aromas of red fruits, vanilla, and delicate hints of oak. The label features a mandala that focuses on the seven Chakras, so that you can align with your wine.
