My commercial appraisal partner John Cicero of [Miller Cicero](http://www.millercicero.com) has been busy lately. He just completed a new market report on New York City income properties. We are really excited about the results. [Here’s what he has to say about it](http://soapbox.millersamuel.com/?p=261):
This week the first [Massey Knakal New York City Income Property Market Report [pdf]](http://www.millercicero.com/pdf/MK1H06.pdf) was released. This is a first of its kind study that I researched and authored on behalf of [Massey Knakal](http://www.masseyknakal.com), one of the most active investment sales brokerage firms in New York.
[Massey Knakal](http://www.masseyknakal.com) is excited about it too. They are distributing about 300,000 copies of it over the next several months.
