Forbes has announced its 400 richest Americans for 2009, and as expected, real estate tycoons still enjoy many of the top spots. Real estate fortunes have declined in recent years, so these millionaires represent the canniest financial minds in the industry. Here, without further ado, we present the top ten real estate tycoons, some of the richest people in the entire world!

Donald Bren

With a net worth of $ 12 billion, Donald Bren has earned his place as the top real estate tycoon for 2010. A native of Newport Beach, California, Bren is credited with developing the central Orange County area, and currently owns 475 commercial buildings, 115 apartment complexes and over 40 retail centers. Despite recent real estate industry difficulties, Bren’s net worth has remained stable over the past year.

Richard LeFrak

New York City’s real estate billionaire Richard LeFrak follows in his father’s footsteps in land development in this prestigious and competitive real market.

Investments include a combined residential, retail, and commercial development in Newport, New Jersey and 5,000 apartments in Queens. LeFrak’s portfolio has lost value in the last year, but still weighs in at a cool $ 4 billion.

Paul Milstein

The last year has seen significant losses in Paul Milstein’s financial investments, down from last year to $ 3.8 billion this year. Milstein Properties owns a number of apartment towers and commercial developments throughout Manhattan that were hard hit by recent economic events; additionally, the acquisition of New York’s Emigrant Bank paid huge dividends in the past, but now may seem like a liability for Milstein’s shrinking portfolio.

Real estate means any kind of property which can be in the form of land, business, apartment etc. The real estate is usually sold in two ways. The one method is the help from the real estate agent, who would guide the customer about the best quality of product at the lowest price available. The second of course is the way in which the buyer buys the property directly from the owner. In both the methods there are advantages and the drawbacks, as in case of help of the agent, he may overcharge the buyer and on the other hand the owner might play a trick with him.

The cost of real estate in a country like Toronto ranges from moderate prices to highly expensive one. For example, in the case of apartments we see that the greater the distance of the location from the city, lower is the price for the apartment. In general cases the apartments which are constructed at commercial areas or near them are provided with almost all types of facilities like telephone and internet connections, in addition to the continuous supply of the electricity and Sui gas.

There is certainly an upsurge in popularity of antique styles of furniture but, unless you have plenty of money available, it would cost a fortune to furnish a whole home totally with original antiques nowadays. This has led the way for top-of-the-range replica furniture: beautifully designed and manufactured, with close attention to detail, following closely designs that were associated with specific eras and furniture designers of their day such as Sheraton or Chippendale, amongst others. Many designers attract continual attention, with replica furniture based on the original designs by international names such as Isamu Noguchi, Le Corbusier and Eileen Grey.

Le Corbusier

Le Corbusier Basculant Sling Chair, Le Corbusier Chaise Lounge and the Grand Comfort Soft Lounge Chair all inspire replica furniture manufactures to reproduce these pieces, adhering faithfully to the original designs.

Le Corbusier’s designs continue to be very popular, keeping the furniture company, Cassina, based in Milan, busy producing Le Corbusier products. Cassina has been licensed as the producer of all things Corbusier.

Isamu Noguchi

Isamu Noguchi was renowned for a wide range of interests, aside from being a designer of furniture that continues to be popular enough to have attracted the replica furniture market today. Aside from popularizing the Akari Lamp that is iconic of the 1970s, Isamu Noguchi is particularly well known for his sculptures such as the Play Mountain, the Glass Pyramid, and the Tetra Mound. Contemporary furniture designs that incorporate Noguchi concepts abound in the Cyclone dining table, or the Noguchi table, as well as some delightful replica furniture creations inspired by Noguchi such as the Tribeca Table, the Yin Yang Coffee Table or the Sable Dining Table.
