From a rent-controlled walk-up in The Bronx to fi nancing some of New York's most iconic properties and dealing with prominent real estate investors, George M. Klett demonstrates how discipline, judgment, and timing outperform slogans and spreadsheets.
The son of a sanitation worker, he worked at the neighborhood grocery store from age 11 to 19 and enlisted in the U.S. Air Force, drove a taxi, and became a real estate banker. He translates complex real estate lending into clear, often wry stories about risk, capital, and character.
With a professional's Bronx sense of humor, Timing Is Just About Everything shows how to bet on the jockey, navigate regulators and crises, and still keep perspective about what actually matters: family, health, reputation, relationships, and maintaining your integrity.
George and his wife, Joyce, live in New York and Florida. They have seven children and nine grandchildren. George has been in the real estate business as a broker, banker, and investor for over fifty years. George does not have a college degree; however, he has paid for seven degrees, two college student loans, and is currently paying for two more degrees. None of them are his. Having succeeded in business, he is currently focused on expanding his philanthropic activities.
