Real estate writer Robert Bruss dies

SAN FRANCISCO -- Robert Bruss, a nationally syndicated real estate columnist, author and investment adviser, has died at his Silicon Valley home. He was 67. Bruss known by peers as the "Dear Abby of Real Estate" had intestinal surgery earlier this year and died of cancer, said Brad Inman, founder and publisher of Inman News.

For 23 years, Bruss wrote seven columns a week for Inman, an Emeryville-based independent news service focusing on real estate. After a brief hiatus earlier this year, he resumed his busy schedule until his death Wednesday in Burlingame, said Jessica Swesey, Inman News editorial and content director. "Over the years, he helped so many people sort out their various buying and selling questions and was an amazing resource of independent information," Swesey said. "He was the most prolific writer I've ever known, and the entire Inman News team will miss him dearly." Bruss' articles including the popular "Real Estate Mailbag" question-and-answer column were syndicated in hundreds of newspapers nationwide, including the Times, and on numerous Web sites. "Bob had a lot of fans and a strong readership. We're really going to miss his contribution to the page. His death is a loss to everyone who followed his wisdom in the real estate pages. He'll be sadly missed," said Kevin Keane, executive editor for Bay Area News Group-East Bay.
