Diana Olick is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, currently serving as CNBC’s real estate correspondent across all CNBC platforms. Her work on CNBC.com won the Gracie Award for “Outstanding Blog” in 2015. She has also contributed her real estate expertise to NBC’s “Today” and “NBC Nightly News” and she is a frequent guest on NPR. Soon after joining CNBC, Olick recognized the quick run-up in the housing market, fueled by investor flipping, and consequently launched the network’s real estate beat. She covers both commercial and residential real estate as well as the mortgage market. Olick was at the forefront of reporting on the housing boom, the subprime mortgage collapse, the resulting housing crash, and the ongoing recovery. She also launched the real estate page on CNBC.com and is its primary author. In 2018, Olick envisioned a new series for the network called “Rising Risks,” which examines all aspects of the growing risk to real estate from climate change. The series continues today on CNBC, CNBC.com, and The News with Shepard Smith.
