Real estate broker and man who returned $10,000 check help the homeless

But he said just because a person is without a home, it doesn't mean they're void of character. For example, the day he found a check for $10,000, he said the first thing that came to mind was, "I got to look for this person." He said it never crossed his mind to try and get it cashed.

Online searches for homes in Long Island City — long an industrial area in the Queens borough of New York — soared 248 percent last week, real estate brokerage Redfin said.

Real estate agents say they're hearing from investors who'd like to become landlords and from sellers who've decided to pull their homes off the market, sit back and wait for prices to go up, up, up. The surge … [Read more...] about Amazon’s two HQ2 picks are suddenly white-hot real estate markets
