Where do you get your real estate news and information? I am talking about local and national deals as well as where you get information for determining supply and demand for different market types and regions. I follow Bisnow, Commercial Property Executive, PERE News, GlobeSt, and Curbed and am wondering if there are other good resources.
EDIT: I thought I'd compile what the first 19 people below have said:

Quarterly Earnings Transcripts from REITs
Interested. I've found Twitter has some interesting follows as well
which accounts?
The Wall Street journal has a section called Property Report which has 0-5 articles a week. Usually their articles are more macro focused, corporate focused (IE fund raising levels for PE funds, tons of stuff on Mall REITs), and relatively international. I remember reading an article about the spike in price of industrial properties surrounding nyc, so theres some more local news as well.
The section is pretty difficult to find - I have to google “wsj property report” whenever I want to read it
@zerohedge twitter....the best in financial news.
"Property" section from the Financial Times
Green Street Advisors have good reports
Quarterly earnings transcripts from REITs
What REITs are you currently following/pay the closest attention to?
TheRealDeal has a few markets like NYC, Miami, LA and soon to come Chicago
Housingwire
Multifamily executive is decent for sector trends
I assume you mean news here, not research.
I'll add a few to the list...
Market specific ones... * Commercial Observer (NYC) * Crain's (Chicago) * [Fill in City] Business Jouranl (bizjourals.com)
And then, of course, you have all the various industry trade groups (I'm prob missing plenty, but here are a bunch) -- they all have news/blogs/feeds/whatever and several have magazines.
Commercial Property Executive
My Italian grandmother. They seem to know everything about everyone
pehub has a decent real estate section therealdeal isn't great for market info but tends to cover a lot of deals and has some interesting interviews, mostly deals with NY/LA/Miami markets commercialobserver is okay as well
There's CRE News Bot on FB. Kind of cool AI integrates with your Messenger app https://www.facebook.com/CREnewsBot/
National Real Estate Investor has a solid daily news email, which aggregates articles from many of the sources mentioned above
I think it is fairly dependent on the market as well. Real Deal is fairly solid in LA and Curbed can be decent at times (has a lot of residential).
RE Journal Bisnow NREI Online Curbed
This has been great feedback everyone. A couple people mentioned some good places for reports. Where do you generally go for reports as well?
Comments from Broseph Stalin
Trippple.net does a great once per week (Sunday night) newsletter...major highlights from the past week and some comments on real estate economics. Written by Columbia Business School folks.
trippple.net aggregates a lot of these into a once per week newsletter
Real Estate Trend Analysis - Reading (Originally Posted: 01/20/2017)
So with the new year in full swing, I was hoping to put some feelers out there as to what resources others use to keep up to date with the US real estate market. I know RE is obviously incredibly location specific but surely there are some resources out there (i'm not referring to books like Linneman or Poorvu) that you guys use regularly to stay ahead of the game - I'm thinking in the way of podcasts, websites, weekly journals/RE publications etc.?
I recently found The Investors Podcast (although more geared towards value investing) which is quite easy listening and have been enjoying the content on some blogs I found (like AsotREG and Adv. in CRE) - what else would you guys recommend?
bisnow.com, depending on the market, usually has some great articles on what the local guys are up to. It's been a good source of information as I look to move into a new market.
SilverBullet17 I have a few websites that I save to my favorites tab and frequent often.
Websites: http://nreionline.com/ http://www.globest.com/ https://www.reit.com/ (this site has a great daily email) https://www.bisnow.com/ (like picklemonkey mentioned)
http://commercialrealestateshow.com/ (this is a podcast I subscribe to that has many different topics)
Hope this helps!
Awesome thanks guys this is awesome, i'll be sure to bookmark these!
The Commercial Real Estate Show is great. Hits everything from retail to multifamily to office. Great listen for ~40 minutes a week at work.
Curbed is another solid website. Very similar to Biznow.
Been following Real Estate and here are some resources:
General News -Curbed -BrickUnderground -TheRealDealNY -Inman (there are free articles too. PM me if you want to read premium articles, I have a trick.) -> They provide real estate reports too and a lot of other good stuff.
Brokerage Company quarterly reports-> Check out Corcoran Group, Brown Steven Harris, Douglas Elliman, etc.
Check out major Real Estate Indicies such as the FTSE US Real Estate Index, Case Shiller 10 city Composite (represents sales of market value from 10 major cities), etc. (Check investopedia for more ideas.)
This honestly should be enough for you, but they're great trust me!
Phenomenal question by the way!
Best free and subscription based RE news websites/sources? (Originally Posted: 08/24/2016)
What are the top websites that most of you guys use to keep up to date on RE news, mostly CRE?
Both informal like bisnow/dealbook and the more informative sites to keep up to date on important news and events,trends,etc.
Thanks in advance.
My daily reads are:
WSJ/NYT are less for real estate, but as we all know global economics and happenings very much have an effect on U.S. real estate. Curious to see what others have on their lists.
This is beautiful. I'd also include your local Biznow. Very similar to Curbed.
Lot of product type-specific publications too. Multifamily has MultiHousingNews and Multifamily Executive, for example.
This was brought up late last year which shifted my daily readings.
Hope this helps!

Twitter for Real Estate News (Originally Posted: 02/06/2017)
I've sifted through most of the content posted here with regard to where many of you in the industry get your news. I've noticed that hardly anyone is mentioning twitter as a source. For those that have tried (like myself), is there simply too much "noise" on the site that you can't get to relevant information? Would the industry benefit from a CRE-specific twitter-esque platform? In terms of breaking news, I've found Twitter users to be some of the most timely--well ahead of the biz journals and industry sites.
The quant world already scrapes twitter pretty extensively to extract insights and filter out the noise.
I've used it, but honestly, how timely are you looking for? I can't really think of anything happening NOWNOWNOW that would be an issue for me in CRE that I wouldn't already be getting from another source just as quickly. IE FOMC fallout on rates, national emergency, entire market crash, etc. Granted I have CNBC/Bloomberg on in my office all day on the tv, so take that with a grain of salt. Anything important locally I'll see with the business journal or my local network, and anything nationally will be on Bisnow, NREI, WSJ RE section, etc. But nothing that I need to see on any kind of immediate timeline like if I was trading an event driven HF strategy. Real estate just isn't that fast.
Agreed. Real estate (non-equities trading) moves at a geological pace. I'm not sure of the value-add of a breaking news feed for real estate.
Trippple.net does a good job aggregating various sources
Twitter is a dying platform. I don't think it's something you'd want to replicate with a far, far smaller user base.
I hope. Social media--IMHO--is ruining culture and poisoning politics (on all sides). I've been off Facebook for 10 days now and it's liberating. I had almost a week of literal withdrawal symptoms, but am passed it now (I think--I hope).
On another note, what sources other than Twitter do you use? Thexaspect listed some national ones, what are some national and more regional ones that you like?
I'm lucky that through my office I receive a lot of the pricier publications like CMA and RE Alert along with what most might consider the best outlets (PERE, SNL, Moodys, Green Street, etc.) and can't forget the Bloomberg Terminal. So by proposing this question about a twitter for CRE, it was more food for thought as I've seen sites like StockTwits gain user base--but I agree with thexaspect that timeliness is not of the utmost importance in our industry.
honestly man, depending on your market the local business journal is usually good. other than that a lot of it is network, it really just depends on your market though(and your friends).
