Real Estate Capital’s US-based website editor, Al Barbarino, has won Gold at the National Association of Real Estate Editors’ 65th Annual Real Estate Journalism Awards.
Barbarino won the award in the Best Residential, Mortgage or Financial Real Estate Magazine Story category for his analysis ‘Why US developers are tapping into a new bond market’, published in Real Estate Capital last September.
The judge said: “This is a report on an emerging and interesting trend of US developers tapping the Israeli bond market to provide financing for American real estate investments and projects,” calling it an “in-depth look at the history and ramifications of this trend.”
Not content with just one award, Barbarino also picked up a Silver in the Best Trade Magazine Story category for his article ‘Behind the juice craze pressing through the city’, written while he was at Commercial Observer.
