The Ronita Kalra Team
On the season finale of Million Dollar Listing NY, Luis exposed that he’s moving to Puerto Rico. I know this may be a bit confusing, so I really want to clear things up. Luis and I have decided to part ways as real estate business partners. Myself and my NYC real estate team will remain in business and in action, while Luis works on other projects in PR. Don’t be sad, this is good news for everyone on all fronts. Luis is spending quality time with his new baby- which is amazing- and I’m taking my career at Douglas Elliman to new levels. There’s tremendous things coming soon. We’re turning it up a notch and I’m really excited for 2020!

THANKSGIVING
It's about that time of year... Thanksgiving. If you're planning on spending this Thanksgiving in New York City, you won't want to miss the 93rd Annual New York Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, which begins at 9 a.m. on Thursday, November 28, 2019.
The parade travels down Central Park West from 77th Street to Columbus Circle, then along Central Park South to 6th Avenue, down 6th Avenue to 34th Street, and finally along 34th Street to Macy's Herald Square. This year's festivities will feature giant character balloons, numerous floats, over 1,000 dancers and clowns, and 12 marching bands. Not to mention the incredible line-up of celebrities such as Kelly Rowland, Lea Michele, Natasha Bedingfield, and even Santa Clause!
To stake out a good viewing spot along the parade route, many people arrive before 6:30 a.m. on the morning of. Be sure to dress warm and bring a thermos with hot coffee or something stronger- wink wink- as it can be quite cold in NYC right now.
RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE OF NY
November begins the giving season, with Thanksgiving and the holidays just around the corner. This time of year reminds us of how fortunate we are for everything that we have. Becoming a mom was life changing for me, and everyday I am thankful for my daughters health and happiness.
The Ronald McDonald House provides families with kids suffering from cancer a place to stay while their children receive treatment in nearby hospitals.
It costs the organization $315 per night to host a family and you can help by donating as little or as much as you want once, twice or on an ongoing basis.
This year, our team decided to donate by purchasing tickets to their annual gala. It was a humbling experience, as we watched the faces' of kids and families brighten, by the ability to use the services and accommodations provided by the Ronald McDonald House. I hope to make this an annual tradition for myself and my team.
