[excerpt] Jonathan Miller is the most accomplished real-estate appraiser in town. In most places, that's like being the captain of the mathletes team. But in New York, it has the power to make him a near-celebrity. "He is the Encyclopedia Britannica, the Wikipedia of Manhattan real estate," says broker Suzanne Sealy. In the past year, 300,000 copies of his market surveys were downloaded. "He's the only appraiser that has groupies!" jokes his business partner, John Cicero. Last month, a seminar with him sold out Avery Fisher Hall. (It's the room's only full house this year.)...

For an extensive analysis of the value of certain amenities and the relationships between co-ops and condos, take a look at the Miller Samuel - New York University joint research paper called The Condominium v. Cooperative Puzzle: An Empirical Analysis of Housing in New York City. The paper was published by the Journal of Legal Studies at the University of Chicago in the summer of 2007.
