Congrats guys!! First exit in the batch.

Want to add a point. I think the common trait you mentioned in the post that you find in all our current batch mates is passion. I can just sense how everyone is so passionate in t…

Very much enjoyed reading this. It is certainly one of the best posts in this topic. Good job.

Very nice!

The power the brokers have over landlords' is very limited, even in hot rental markets like Boston and NYC. The landlords set the price, and the brokers try to rent them (first han…

On a serious note. Brokers are very hardworking. They may not be the most tech savvy people, but they most certainly are not lazy. They do not have it easy, and technology is chang…

I would actually agree with this to some extend. The cool part is that YC started out as an experiment, and they are continuing to experiment and pushing the boundaries. If anythin…

It's a very legitimate concern. From my personal experience, I think "being starved" is an important part of the experience, it prepares you for the long grind (unless your are the…

Congratulations. I am looking forward to the dinner.

I agree would agree with this based on our experiences dealing with local real estate businesses. However, local small businesses are sector specific, a pizza shop has different ne…
