THE PERFECT PAIR FOR EYE ON REAL ESTATE
This Saturday, December 6, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 Noon, Eye on Real Estate with Dottie Herman will feature two remarkable guests whose voices and expertise continue to shape the way we understand property, business, and culture: Lois Weiss and Domenic A. Chiarella.
The program, long recognized as the nation’s premier broadcast on real estate and lifestyle, thrives on candid conversation and insider perspective. With Dottie Herman at the helm, listeners can expect sharp analysis, practical advice, and engaging dialogue that brings the complexities of the market into clear focus.
Lois Weiss has spent more than three decades chronicling the ever-changing landscape of New York real estate. Known as one of the city’s most authoritative journalists on property and development, her work has appeared in the New York Post, The Real Deal, and Commercial Observer. A past president of the National Association of Real Estate Editors, Weiss has earned a reputation for breaking major stories, blending journalistic rigor with vivid storytelling. Her reporting captures not only the financial and architectural dimensions of real estate but also the cultural forces that shape the skyline.
Domenic A. Chiarella brings a different but equally compelling perspective. A seasoned real estate professional and auctioneer, Chiarella has guided clients through the intricacies of buying, selling, and investing for over two decades. Known for his transparent, tough-but-fair negotiation style, he has built a career on honesty and results. Beyond his work in the property market, Chiarella is also an author. His forthcoming book, Tomato Paste Leadership, explores lessons in resilience, adaptability, and vision—distilling insights from both his professional journey and his philosophy of leadership. The book promises to be a fresh, practical take on how leaders can inspire and sustain success in challenging environments.
At the center of it all is Dottie Herman, Vice Chair of Douglas Elliman Real Estate and one of the most influential figures in the industry. Herman’s career began in 1978 as a broker for Merrill Lynch, and by 1989 she had purchased Prudential Long Island Realty, transforming it into a powerhouse brokerage. In 2003, she acquired Douglas Elliman with Howard Lorber, building it into Manhattan’s largest and fastest-growing firm. Named by Forbes as America’s richest self-made woman in real estate, Herman has also been recognized by Crain’s among the “100 Most Influential Women in New York Business.” Her philanthropic work spans the American Heart Association, Southampton Hospital, and numerous cultural institutions. As host of Eye on Real Estate, she brings clarity, warmth, and unmatched expertise to every broadcast.
Together, Herman, Weiss, and Chiarella promise a lively and insightful discussion that will illuminate the trends, challenges, and opportunities defining today’s real estate market.
