In this special edition of RealTrending, Senior Real Estate Reporter Matthew Blake talks to @Properties Co-founder Mike Golden. Since speaking with RealTrending in September, @properties has bought international luxury brand Christie’s as it eyes more acquisitions and expanding its franchisee network with investment partner Quad-C. But the company is deliberate in its growth and is avoiding opportunities such as an initial public offering.

Golden also candidly discussed the challenges of COVID 19 for brokerage, and the future of a historic high-demand, low inventory real estate market.
