Go Ahead and Yell. He’s Everyone’s Punching Bag

Go Ahead and Yell. He’s Everyone’s Punching Bag.

Norman J. Radow brings out the worst in some people. They scream at him. They sue him. He has even been punched in the face.

What has he done to deserve this? In a word: workouts.

As founder of Radco Development Solutions, Mr. Radow is on the firing line in the continuing battle over failed residential real estate deals. Banks hire him to resurrect developments gone awry, particularly those half-empty condominium towers and gated communities that sprang up like weeds during the boom and are now in foreclosure.
