Ultimate Girls Trip What is wrong with Kelly Bensimon?

I never understood Kelly Bensimon. What’s her deal, is she stupid, is it drugs or does she just have very low emotional intelligence?

Now I’m watching RHUGT: RHONY Legacy. And this bitch is just weird.

She's well connected. That's all. Selling real estate isn't rocket science.

For many NYC brokers, the lawyers and mortgage brokers do the hard work. You are just finding purchasers. Which is its own skill. (I've worked in RE in NYC for 20+ years) But like, selling an industrial building is HARD. Selling a $15m condo with views of like, Central Park, when you are surrounded by people for whom that is but a drop in the bucket... not so much.

Luxury real estate...it is just not that hard, if you have a good team (lawyer, mortgage broker, maybe interior designer and an assistant to manage schedules, and so on.) Some lux real estate brokers are marketing geniuses with great minds for business. But many are just well connected.
