Real estate assistants invaluable in keeping the industry running
Murder! Mistreatment! Extravagance!
The case was so sordid that the National Association of Realtors should have sent out an all-states bulletin: We’re not really like this! Last week’s news that Natavia Lowery confessed to bludgeoning her boss, Linda “Realtor to the stars” Stein, with a “yoga stick” painted just the kind of picture of cutthroat real estate culture that makes industry professionals cringe and looky-loos swarm the newsstands.
Stein, a former co-manager to the punk rock group the Ramones, had switched careers midlife to become one of the country’s most high-profile agents. She counted Sting and Steven Spielberg among her clients, Madonna and Elton John among her close friends.
