Under the direction of the Baker Program in Real Estate, the Review is a student run publication founded in 2002 as a forum for faculty, professionals, and real estate students to focus on the interdisciplinary nature of real estate. The Review covers a broad range of issues from various real estate fields including design, business economics, engineering, finance, law, planning, development, marketing, and property management. The publication blends informative articles on real estate practice with application-based academic research. This year’s volume includes articles spanning several emerging or fast-changing areas in real estate both domestically and abroad.

In addition to this publication, the Review staff has published weekly blog articles touching on technology, international real estate, and current events (http://blog.realestate.cornell.edu/). Fifteen Baker Program graduate students, with the assistance of two advisors, share responsibility for publication of the Review, a task which requires extensive time creating, editing, and formatting submissions.

  • CELL PHONES Cell Phones Come with Either Prepaid Or Contract Plans
    CELL PHONES Cell phones come with either prepaid or contract plans. There are benefits to both, so choose the one that best fits your needs. Prepaid plans There are two types of prepaid plans: 1) Pay a set fee per month for unlimited talk, text messages, and data. If you talk, text, or use data a lot each month, this may be one of the cheapest types of plans. AT&T Go Phone, Boost Mobile, Virgin Mobile, MetroPCS, and T-Mobile offer this type of plan. You can check their websites for the most up-to-date prices. 2) Purchase a set number of minutes of talk, text, and data. When you use all of those minutes, you have to buy more minutes. This type of prepaid plan is generally cheapest if you do not talk a lot each month. Tracfone, Net10, Straight Talk are examples. Actually the least expensive of all the prepaid phones out there is the Tracfone. • Pros: Flexibility because there is no contract and no cancellation fees. No credit check required, so you do not have to pay a security deposit. • Cons: Not cheapest if you need multiple lines. Must purchase phone at full price (usually). Can be frustrating if you run out of minutes in the middle of a conversation (for prepaid plan 2). Contract Plans In this type of plan, you sign a contract with a cell phone company for a set period of time, usually two years. • Pros: The companies usually subsidize your phone, so you pay less for the actual phone. You can get a discount if you have multiple lines (like a family plan).
