Donald Trump and the New York City Real Estate: How the Two Complement One Another

Donald Trump, the real estate mogul and presidential candidate, was able to maintain his front runner Republican status since the day he proclaimed his official candidacy last June. Reportedly, he considered this a great achievement amidst relentless attacks coming from both the Republican and the Democratic parties. 

Recently, he was back in the "Big Apple" awaiting a commanding primaries win.  It is the real estate mogul's NYC roots that commanded the lead. It was also this as the factor that he was holding on to capture the nomination, win the presidential election, and eventually restore America's greatness once again.    

Numerous Trump critics have said that he is rude, arrogant, obnoxious, dismissive, and uncivil. Many question his "presidential" and are puzzled how a businessman who has never had a political office spark revolution and win primaries in a number of key states.

What the critics have failed to think over was that Trump tapped frustration and anger, channeling them into something more beneficial to him, according to a feature done by CNN.

As a real estate champion, he was able to turn a residential portfolio from the outer borough into a trophy Manhattan building portfolio which today lncludes the General Motors and Plaza Hotel buildings. He had also developed Trump Tower and Hyatt hotels, as well as renovated Central Park's Wollman Rink.     

Deal-making in NYC is popular for being unforgiving and cutthroat.  To be a successful Manhattan real estate market deal maker, developer and investor, a person must have the have solid guts and instincts with a stomach that can take in tremendous amount of risk. Most importantly, he has to be a skilled world-class negotiator. 

The presidential candidate Trump possesses all the mentioned qualities. Most importantly, he represented the essence of a true New Yorker, according to a Fox Business feature. The New York brashness in Trump and his continuous refusal to be correct politically had been perceived by a lot of people as uniquely qualifying. Reportedly, it was these qualities that will make him bring forth the immense change that the nation currently requires.
