[VIP] The Notorious Interview: Nick Taylor, Modus

We are back with our first Notorious Interview since the holidays interrupted things. The first interview of the New Year is with an old acquaintance who is one of the nicest and smarted guys in our space: Nick Taylor, VP of Growth at Modus.

This was a fun conversation, because I got to learn a whole lot more about a part of the transaction that is rarely talked about: the closing. There are a lot of companies looking to disrupt the industry, but I’m not aware of too many that’s focusing on what happens once the buyer and seller come to agreement. Modus is one, and Nick provides a fantastic overview of what’s going on in that part of the transaction.

Managing Partner of 7DS Associates, and the grand poobah of this here blog. Once called "a revolutionary in a really nice suit", people often wonder what I do for a living because I have the temerity to not talk about my clients and my work for clients. Suffice to say that I do strategy work for some of the largest organizations and companies in real estate, as well as some of the smallest startups and agent teams, but usually only on projects that interest me with big implications for reforming this wonderful, crazy, lovable yet frustrating real estate industry of ours.
