Sermon Scripture: Acts 2:1-21A long time ago, God made a promise. He said, “One day, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.” That means God wouldn't just be with a few special people anymore—he would be with everyone who wants him.On Pentecost we remember the first sermon, the first baptisms, and the beginning of the Church, but most of all, we remember that God kept his promise. And if God kept that promise, we can trust him to keep every other one too.
This was a clever Wednesday crossword, and not just because its author, Peter A. Collins, slipped 21A, Understanding, KEN, and 22D, Astuteness, ACUMEN, into the grid. It was, inevitably, the theme that made this crossword shine, and you'll discover the meta-joke in that assessment when listening to today's episode (or when you've solved the crossword, whichever comes first).Show note imagery: Members of the G6 - France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and the United KingdomWe love feedback!

21A los tres días había una boda en Caná de Galilea, y la madre de Jesús estaba allí. 2Jesús y sus discípulos estaban también invitados a la boda. 3Faltó el vino, y la madre de Jesús le dice: «No tienen vino». 4Jesús le dice: «Mujer, ¿qué tengo yo que ver contigo? Todavía no ha llegado mi hora». 5Su madre dice a los sirvientes: «Haced lo que él os diga». 6Había allí colocadas seis tinajas de piedra, para las purificaciones de los judíos, de unos cien litros cada una. 7Jesús les dice: «Llenad las tinajas de agua». Y las llenaron hasta arriba. 8Entonces les dice: «Sacad ahora y llevadlo al mayordomo». Ellos se lo llevaron. 9El mayordomo probó el agua convertida en vino sin saber de dónde venía (los sirvientes sí lo sabían, pues habían sacado el agua), y entonces llama al esposo 10y le dice: «Todo el mundo pone primero el vino bueno y, cuando ya están bebidos, el peor; tú, en cambio, has guardado el vino bueno hasta ahora». 11Este fue el primero de los signos que Jesús realizó en Caná de Galilea; así manifestó su gloria y sus discípulos creyeron en él. 12Después bajó a Cafarnaún con su madre y sus hermanos y sus discípulos, pero no se quedaron allí muchos días. 13Se acercaba la Pascua de los judíos y Jesús subió a Jerusalén. 14Y encontró en el templo a los vendedores de bueyes, ovejas y palomas, y a los cambistas sentados; y, 15haciendo un azote de cordeles, los echó a todos del templo, ovejas y bueyes; y a los cambistas les esparció las monedas y les volcó las mesas; 16y a los que vendían palomas les dijo: «Quitad esto de aquí: no convirtáis en un mercado la casa de mi Padre». 17

Naquele tempo, disse Jesus aos seus discípulos: 20“Em verdade, em verdade vos digo: Vós chorareis e vos lamentareis, mas o mundo se alegrará; vós ficareis tristes, mas a vossa tristeza se transformará em alegria. 21A mulher, quando deve dar à luz, fica angustiada porque chegou a sua hora; mas, depois que a criança nasceu, ela já não se lembra dos sofrimentos, por causa da alegria de um homem ter vindo ao mundo. 22Também vós agora sentis tristeza, mas eu hei de ver-vos novamente e o vosso coração se alegrará, e ninguém vos poderá tirar a vossa alegria. 23aNaquele dia, não me perguntareis mais nada”.

EP 081 | Institución de la Cena del Señor (Mt. 26.17-29; Lc. 22.7-23; Jn. 13.21-30; 1 Co. 11.23-26) 12El primer día de la fiesta de los panes sin levadura, cuando sacrificaban el cordero de la pascua, sus discípulos le dijeron: ¿Dónde quieres que vayamos a preparar para que comas la pascua? 13Y envió dos de sus discípulos, y les dijo: Id a la ciudad, y os saldrá al encuentro un hombre que lleva un cántaro de agua; seguidle, 14y donde entrare, decid al señor de la casa: El Maestro dice: ¿Dónde está el aposento donde he de comer la pascua con mis discípulos? 15Y él os mostrará un gran aposento alto ya dispuesto; preparad para nosotros allí. 16Fueron sus discípulos y entraron en la ciudad, y hallaron como les había dicho; y prepararon la pascua. 17Y cuando llegó la noche, vino él con los doce. 18Y cuando se sentaron a la mesa, mientras comían, dijo Jesús: De cierto os digo que uno de vosotros, que come conmigo, me va a entregar. 19Entonces ellos comenzaron a entristecerse, y a decirle uno por uno: ¿Seré yo? Y el otro: ¿Seré yo? 20Él, respondiendo, les dijo: Es uno de los doce, el que moja conmigo en el plato. 21A la verdad el Hijo del Hombre va, según está escrito de él,Sal. 41.9. mas ¡ay de aquel hombre por quien el Hijo del Hombre es entregado! Bueno le fuera a ese hombre no haber nacido. 22Y mientras comían, Jesús tomó pan y bendijo, y lo partió y les dio, diciendo: Tomad, esto es mi cuerpo. 23Y tomando la copa, y habiendo dado gracias, les dio; y bebieron de ella todos.
A relatively straightforward Friday crossword, with some elegant subtleties in the grid that need to be seen to be appreciated. For instance, let us draw your attention to the intersection of 54A, Response to someone who got the answer instantly, YOUNAILEDIT, and 36D, Crushed a test, ACEDIT. [That was apparently the section of the grid devoted to smarties.] We also had 21A, _____ blanc, VIN, and 45A, _____ noire, BETE (where blanc is white and noire is black, in French). Finally we had 28A, Fictional weapon of the 23rd century, PHASER, and 9D, More, on a score, PIU, which is, as all good Trekkies know, the sound that a PHASER makes, as in PIU, PIU, PIU.For Fun Fact Friday, we had a listener, and a soon-to-be-published crossword constructor (!) email us our fun fact for the day, so be sure and tune into that as well.

There are good employees and there are excellent employees. There are also those employees you know aren't performing well enough to stay or progress in your company. But to begin with, on what basis do you assess your employees' performance? What makes a five-star employee? Does a two-star employee have to stay a two-star employee? How can they grow themselves? Find answers to all those questions in this episode of the Advance podcast with Mike and his guest Danielle Mulvey. Danielle reveals the ingredients that make a five-star employee – the irreplaceable one who delivers consistent results for the company. With 25 years of experience as an entrepreneur, Danielle comes equipped with all the knowledge regarding hiring the right people for your team, letting go of those employees who don't fit well, and the metrics to assess each of them for their skills, ability, and performance. She also shares how she does the market analysis and competition to provide adequate pay to her employees. Listen in! EPISODE 19 SUMMARY & HIGHLIGHTS What is the biggest mistake entrepreneurs make when hiring their first few significant hires? 1:33 They take everything that they don't want to do, or they're not good at, and assign it to the new hire. The problem is, often, it becomes too much for the other person. What is a five-star employee? 9:18 A five-star employee represents the top 15% of available talent in the market for the role. A major hiring mistake made by businesses is not casting a very wide net for applicants. Hiring from a small pool means your chances of getting that 5-star employee are also less.Does a two-star employee always have to be a two-star employee?19:21A two-star employee is two-star only for that role. Danielle and her team have identified 11 Universal qualities that are key to being a five-star employee – some are coded red, which means they're very difficult to change, two are coded green, and the rest are coded gray. The green ones are relatively easy to change, and the gray ones also can be changed, but maybe with some coaching or help from a hiring manager. The red ones are the toughest to change.How much time should we give employees to improve their performance before they're shown the door?24:20In the shortest, possibly two weeks. Also, we don't need it to take six months. The reason is, we're all creatures of comfort. If we can show up to a place and the people there are relatively polite to us, and we get a paycheck every other week, we'll stay within that comfort zone forever. To a certain degree, you have to make it a bit uncomfortable for those employees so they're ready to move on and can move on quickly.(Full shownotes at https://connect.stepstoadvance.com)
An ingenious theme in today's crossword, an anti-rebus -- instead of multiple letters scrunched into one square, we have two letters expanding out of ... nothing, just like the Big Bang (although not quite as noisy). Today's crossword was by Jeff Chen, and that means quality. Clues like 38A, One of two in 2/22/22, SLASH, and the amazing (and debut word) 21A, Carnivorous : meat :: carpophagous : ________, FRUIT are just a few of the many Easter eggs that await the diligent spelunker of today's grid.
A very good morning to you! It is Tuesday morning, the last day of May, the 31st, 2022. And this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.If we go straight to the Book of Acts, the Lord says:“Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”Acts 2:21A beautiful scripture for sinners like you and me... Then straight to Romans 10:13, you know what, it says exactly the same thing - whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.Whoever means anybody. That's right! Billy Bray was one of those who called upon the name of the Lord. Billy Bray was a self-confessed drunkard. He was a tin miner from the South of England, from Cornwall. He could not pass a pub or a bar without going in and getting drunk, spending all his hard-earned pay on alcohol. His wife used to despair, she had no money to feed her children, no money to run the house. Then Billy Bray met Jesus and his life was instantly transformed - for the first time ever, he brought home a full pay packet of money... And he never, ever touched a drop of alcohol again. He was known in the district and in the town as such a happy and joyful man. He would go singing and sometimes even dancing down the streets, that's right! He built chapels all over the district and the countryside himself. He took orphans in to his home. He gave people money, he had no money himself, he was very poor but he was so full of the joy of the Lord because God called him home.I want to say to you today that if you are in a state... You know, the Lord spoke to me once, so clearly, I will never forget it! He spoke to me out of the Book of Revelation, He says:“You have forsaken your first love.”Revelation 2:4Maybe you have done that today. It is no good saying, “In 1965, I gave my life to Christ.” - Are you full of the joy of the Lord today? Is Jesus as real to you as He was when you gave your life to Christ?I remember at an MMC on the farm, a biker arrived on a big expensive Harley Davidson motorbike... only rich people can afford those! He slept in a one man tent all by himself. He got up early in the morning, took out a brand-new bottle of Chivas Regal imported Scotch Whisky, cracked the top to have a drink... He was obviously an alcoholic. Four young men walked passed, one was wearing a wooden cross around his neck. They came up to him and said, “Sir, you don't need that stuff.” He poured it into the dirt and started to weep, they gathered around him and prayed for him and he accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.Remember, today could be the best day of the rest of your life.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

A fine Wednesday crossword by Alex Bajcz, and if you like pinball games, doubly so. There was much to like in today's grid, with fun clues like 1A, One inclined to go in and out, RAMP (nice!); 31D, Drollery, WIT (drollery, truly one of the great words of the ... 17th century?); and of course 21A, County north of the Firth of Forth, FIFE (of course it is). So hat's off to today's constructor, we give this a 5 squares on the JAMCR scale.
Though there's widespread consensus that the slavery and colonization that characterize the history of European relations with Africa represent a legacy of grave injustice, there is much less agreement on how to redress that injustice. Professor M. Amah Edoh, who teaches in MIT's Department of Anthropology, designed the course 21A.S01 Reparations for Slavery and Colonization with the goal of honestly facing the historical record and openly discussing how best to respond. Because she believes expertise is too often conceived of as something that flows “north-south” from the developed nations toward the developing world, she structured the course to embrace expertise wherever it might be found—recruiting guest lecturers from various disciplines and from institutions around the world, as well as activists currently involved in the quest for reparative justice. She even went a step further, sharing the lecture videos on YouTube while the semester was still ongoing and inviting viewers to contribute their own insights into how to deal with the ongoing legacy of historical wrongs. In this episode, Prof. Edoh describes the motivation for this innovative course structure and reflects on the challenges of grappling with such a sensitive subject.Relevant Resources:MIT OpenCourseWareThe OCW Educator PortalShare your teaching insightsProfessor Edoh's faculty pageCourse materials by Professor Edoh on OCW21A.S01 Reparations for Slavery and ColonizationOpen Learning story on 21A.S01OCW YouTube playlist for 21A.S01Africa's Expertise (YouTube lecture by Prof Edoh)African Futures Action LabHow Africa Has Been Made to Mean (2020 episode of Chalk Radio)Music in this episode by Blue Dot Sessions Connect with UsIf you have a suggestion for a new episode or have used OCW to change your life or those of others, tell us your story.

Check it out below: Jeremy Cisneros 00:00 We're not just looking to raise capital, we are looking to provide and leverage some of our real-world asset management. So that's one group. And then the other group I work with is called Growth Vue Properties. And we are really a deal finder sourcing... I think last year, we sourced almost 1200 deals 100 plus a month, we have a good team and process in place. And, you know, we've been able to partner with some large equity groups and capital partners to take these deals down. So we're doing things a little differently on those two respects, but it's been a tremendous ride. Intro 00:30 Welcome to the How to Scale Commercial Real Estate Show. Whether you are an active or passive investor, we'll teach you how to scale your real estate investing business into something big. Sam Wilson 00:42 Jeremy Cisneros, a McDonald's owner-operator turned multifamily investor. His hands-on experience in turning around and optimizing businesses from top to bottom really helped him out in the multifamily space. Jeremy, welcome to the show. Jeremy Cisneros 00:54 Thanks so much for having me on, Sam. Excited to be here. And looking forward to it. Sam Wilson 00:57 Hey, man, the pleasure is mine. There's three questions I ask every guest who comes on the show. In 90 seconds or less, can you tell me where did you start? Where are you now? And how did you get there? Jeremy Cisneros 01:06 Yeah, so I started in the residential space similar to a lot of folks. I got my license as soon as I got to California from New York, originally background in McDonald's franchise owner, operating. And today we're in multifamily investing, passively along the way, and then eventually became into the active space. So here we are today. And yeah, I'm sure we'll dive in a little bit deeper. Sam Wilson 01:28 That's really fascinating. So you own McDonald's franchises. But how many restaurants did you own? Jeremy Cisneros 01:35 We own seven in midtown Manhattan and the Upper East Side. So my father kind of scaled that up over the course of his almost 30-year career, and I was in it five years there before we sold. Sam Wilson 01:45 Gotcha. Okay, so you guys have divested of those? Can you walk us through, I guess the thinking behind selling off a McDonald's franchise, it seems like those would be, one, hard to come by and, two, valuable assets to own. Jeremy Cisneros 01:57 Definitely, the goal was to scale long term, but the overarching reasons of just squeezing profit margins, and increasing costs, etc. And then being in the environment of New York City, you have to pay the taxes as a franchise owner. Real estate taxes are really expensive. And what we saw was just long-term, wanted to divest. And so we had an opportunity. One of our locations sat on a very valuable piece of dirt over the Hudson Yards project on the west side of Manhattan. The developer approached us and then approached the corporation on the land. We own the lease up until 2022. So they bought us out of our lease, and they bought the land and we sold the other six locations to another operator. Sam Wilson 02:37 Gotcha. And it was at that point, you said, “Hey, I'm going multifamily,” or did you already have your hands in multifamily before then? Jeremy Cisneros 02:43 I wish I had, you know, I spent a few years in residential. Nothing wrong with that. It was a great experience. I was a realtor, as I mentioned, just kind of working with buyers and sellers, but then multifamily, probably two or three years after that, and have been really just kind of obsessed since. Sam Wilson 02:59 What are some things that you've learned are some things that you feel like you've brought from the restaurant slash franchise space that you bring into the multifamily investing space? That gives you a competitive edge, I guess, is the question I'm asking, over what you see other people doing. Jeremy Cisneros 03:14 I'm an underwriter by background, I've done a lot of lending. So that has helped him kind of rounded out my operational experience that I had, working physically in the trenches at McDonald's from the back office, looking at P&L and our balance sheets on a daily weekly basis, has been really helpful to really optimize the revenue, and then fine-tune the expenses without really like crippling the payroll, at the end of the day. You understand what it's like working shoulder to shoulder with those who are actually performing what comes out on that store-operating income or net operating income, as we're familiar with in real estate, what it actually takes in the day to day working long hours. I can empathize and I definitely able to, I think now, there's many years of long days and hours to, you know, see how an operation works together and get more efficient. It's just kind of taking those learned skills from people and working in developing those individuals to bring that into what we do today. Sam Wilson 04:06 When you say developing those individuals, what are some thoughts that come to mind? Jeremy Cisneros 04:10 We're not vertically integrated at the moment. And you know, I love people, sometimes a gift and a curse to manage a whole team. We have 350 employees across our locations, and individual stores, you know, it's just a lot of personalities and characters. And I think a big control aspect of owning multifamily is owning your own management company as well. So what we do as asset managers, we oversee the property managers who are professionals in those designated markets, and we're just really talking with the regional managers, just making sure we're aligned with our core visions and core values as we kind of set those up in my companies through a known system Entrepreneurial Operating System that I've now implemented from one business to the next. Sam Wilson 04:51 Yeah, and I think you're referring to EOS system in Traction. Jeremy Cisneros 04:55 You know, like, Wickman, yep. Sam Wilson 04:56 Wickman, there you go. That's who it is. Yeah, that's really intriguing. Tell me about when you manage those people and those processes, I guess, what are some things that you look for, especially in your property management side? Maybe again, you're coming at this from a different angle than what a lot of us may be coming into the industry from, do you feel like there's things you see differently? Jeremy Cisneros 05:06 I think each asset is different. You know, again, I looked at the numbers pretty regularly, I think conditioned to look at things on a weekly basis. And my father is a big proponent of what gets measured gets done. So we just make sure we're looking at things on a micro-level, and making sure that we're just optimizing as much as possible, you know, we want to be as fair and transparent with our tenants who are maybe looking for a better living experience and community. So we're happy to provide something like that at a reasonable cost. We think at the end of the day, and then seeing what's working with renovation turns, improving the communities, the amenities, just deferred maintenance, and all that. Not everything is a heavy revenue driver, but the experience can help reduce turnover and sometimes unforeseen expense at the end of the day, when you're looking at your bottom line. It's not something that you can quite measure. But the less turnover, you have, the obviously more profitable you're going to be. Sam Wilson 06:09 What are some of the things on a weekly basis, some snapshot items that you look at? Maybe that you say, “Hey, this tells us where we are.” And you can look at it in one minute and get kind of the health or state of the union for each property? Are there you know, five things you look at for each property? Or what is that? Jeremy Cisneros 06:25 Yeah, typically, when we're doing our renovation plan, it's a little bit different than looking at more of a stabilized asset. So a lot of our deals have been more of a value-add plan. So we're sort of like net neutral from a cash flow perspective. But if I see things dipping below that debt service coverage ratio of like 0.10, I'll start to fine-tune and see like what's going on. Sometimes you just have, you know, leaky toilets, at the end of the day, it could be something as miniscule as that just flushing money down the drain, you know, no pun intended, and you don't realize it a few months go by and you're like, oh, wow, this line item has increased with technology, it's pretty easy to kind of catch upfront. So things like that. Obviously, tenants are all different. And they all pay at different moments in the month, we wish everyone paying on time. But it's not everyone's circumstance. So I think looking at things weekly, and then checking in on different revenue in different expense items, kind of those two small examples I gave are definitely what we try to keep our on site property managers looking at and kind of training them to look at these things without the help of us in the long run. Sam Wilson 07:25 Yeah, I love that. How have you scaled your multifamily business, what has been your preferred approach? Jeremy Cisneros 07:33 So I work with two groups Symphony Capital. So we do a lot of partnerships, our co-general partnership, as it come in the syndication world, we have really scaled our deal flow, when we have partners who are in contract, and we'll bring some capital, we also bring some of that asset management experience. We're not just looking to raise capital, we are looking to provide and leverage some of our real-world asset management. So that's one group and the other group I work with is called Growth Vue Properties. And we really deal finder sourcing... I think, last year, we sourced almost 1200 deals, 100 plus a month, we have a good team and process in place. And you know, we've been able to partner with some large equity groups and capital partners to take these deals down. So we're doing things a little differently on those two respects. But it's been a tremendous ride thus far. Sam Wilson 08:20 Source 1200 deals, that's a lot of deals is that 1200 That you underwrote? And then you know, 120 of those you took a second look at or is that 1200 That you underwrote and said, “Hey, here's deals that we feel we could move forward on. Jeremy Cisneros 08:34 Our team is not that big just yet. Those were the ones that hit the inbox. We took our first plan was we go through our neighborhood screen because we'd like to be at least 30 to 45 minutes with an MSA of 500,000 plus. And if it fits that we then use neighborhood scout and a few other tools to fine-tune, hey, does this neighborhood got good job growth, median household income, decent crime in schools. And then if it fits those boxes, we'll go to our pre-underwrite phase, if it checks a few boxes, then we'll go to a full underwrite phase. And that's where I pick it up from there. You know, it takes time, but we've really developed this efficient, streamlined process now. Sam Wilson 09:08 I want to spend a little time here because this is really I think, interesting. What is your final objective through Growth Vue Properties? I mean, is it to take it down yourselves? Is it to present a deal to an operating partner and say, “Hey, guys, you know, we want to share the deal. But now you guys take it and run it.” What's the objective there? Jeremy Cisneros 09:24 Yeah, Growth Vue Properties, we like to be the lead syndicator and sponsor on a deal. And then we have a great, like I said, partner within the capital space who's just looking to get more multifamily deals. So they're more of a self-storage investor historically and are kind of pivoting in this direction. So we would still obtain the asset management going forward and work directly with the property manager. And we're, you know, in a couple of markets now. Sam Wilson 09:48 Okay. These are deals that you guys want to take down yourselves and hold in-house. It sounds like you've structured a creative finance partner for it. Jeremy Cisneros 09:56 Yeah, I've been very fortunate that my partner, Samson, has got some great partners, tips and ways of building teams that's has been his background. And now that we've kind of put a couple years into building this process and this engine and system, it's starting to pay some dividends. Sam Wilson 10:09 That's interesting. 1200 deals, that's a lot to take passes, or at least even just to look at, I mean, it's a lot of emails and say, “Hey– Jeremy Cisneros 10:17 It's a lot. Sam Wilson 10:17 Yeah, how have you made it easy, where you don't spend too much time looking at the wrong deals? Jeremy Cisneros 10:23 That's a great question. A lot of time could be spent looking at bad deals. So our team that has kind of scaled to about five or six folks now specifically, just on the deal team, our training and just looking at so many deals repetitively, they know to pass or kill more deals than they are letting through because and when we empower them, we give them the autonomy to do so. If they're something on a line where this prime is okay, but the income looks good. We'll talk those through and work on them as a team. But yeah, you can end up spinning your wheels on these deals that are just at first blush should have been removed for preliminary reason. Sam Wilson 10:56 Right? And have you done that primarily with virtual assistants? Or is these people you've brought it in-house? What's that team look like? Jeremy Cisneros 11:04 Definitely like to leverage VAs, but all of our employees so far have been interns or equity members. That's kind of like I said, Samson has been a great connector there, of bringing in folks that he's known from previous experiences. And they've been tremendous. So all local, either Colorado, I live in San Diego. So that's where our two hubs are at the moment. Sam Wilson 11:23 Gotcha. That's awesome. Okay. Very cool. Talk to us a little bit about your lending background. I know, you said you came in, you did some brokerage work. And then you did some lending. How does that play into your current business? And I guess, what skill sets did you obtain while doing lending that you employ currently? Jeremy Cisneros 11:39 Yeah, so I was specifically in the commercial real estate lending space at a regional bank. My group did loans from $20 to $150 million, our average travels is about $50 million. So these were good-sized, typically ground-up development deals. And it was a different structure. Usually, we were the senior analyst, and we worked with the debt fund that would provide the whole loan and boost their return, very interesting structure. But what I learned going through that whole process was I brought the deal in from the broker or the borrower directly, and I worked on it through the whole process to close it. It wasn't set up where you bring it in as a sales team. And then you kind of get it through the credit committee, and then you pass it off. And the deal, you know, the underwriting team closes it, the structure here was very flat, if you broaden the deal, you closed it. And then oftentimes, it stays on your books, and you also help manage the deal too, after you've closed it. It's a great experience. And those few years, I feel like it was there for six years rather than three years. And it was just a tremendous experience, many hours reminded me of like a New York firm that I worked for. And that whole time there, it was just learning how to use your lender hat, doing work conservative, because the credit committee would typically slash rents, they would reduce expenses for both the borrowers or… and come to a happy medium att the end of the day. I think I used those skills today in my underwriting. Sam Wilson 12:56 What are some things you saw commonly when deals were sent to you that you guys went back to you and said, “No,” you know, like you said, raise expenses, cut rents, anything else that comes to mind that you said that you saw people were commonly misestimating? Jeremy Cisneros 13:11 Yeah, a lot of our deals came through New York borrowers specifically multifamily. So these would be deals that would have tax abatements for 21A, specifically in that market. So we would just verify it through lenders and counselors that we had locally in the New York market, we'd also just always have to double-check the buildable square feet, the FAR, the floor area ratio just based because everything in New York is vertical in the city. So you know, whether you're able to build to a 3 FAR or a 10 FAR is gonna make all the difference as an air rights. So it got pretty complex. I don't particularly acquire in New York City, I have some colleagues that do. And that's a whole other can of worms considering when New York's going through. But I'd like to think that in the future, we'll help because I would love to get into development in the future. So I think that kind of helps. And just now having a borrower's hat in the lender's hat, I know that when I'm presenting something to a lender, you got to be a little bit more aggressive to get the proceeds you want. So I get it. It's a back and forth game. It's a little bit of negotiating. At the end of the day, we try to build relationships long term with specific lenders. Sam Wilson 14:15 Yeah, I think that's a great point, you know, and that's something that many have come on here and said as it pertains to lenders, as it pertains to insurance brokers, whoever it is, like, these are long term relationships. It's not, oh, thanks for the loan. I'm gonna go shopping again, with 20 other people on the next deal. Jeremy Cisneros 14:31 We get that a lot. And the people that kept coming back and borrowing from us, we had great relationships and we were able to be flexible, what we were able to provide up to maybe a couple more dollars or reduced the rate a little bit. We weren't the cheapest lender. We're primarily just bridge lenders, construction lenders, but relationships went a long way. Sam Wilson 14:51 That's fantastic. Jeremy, thanks for your time today. It's been fun learning about your history there in the McDonald's industry all the way to multifamily and how you guys have grown and scaled your company. Certainly appreciate it. If our listeners want to get in touch with you or learn more about you, what is the best way to do that? Jeremy Cisneros 15:07 I appreciate the time, Sam, has been awesome. Like I said, I'm affiliated with two groups, symphonycapital.com, or thegrowthvue, that's VUE, .com. And feel free to reach out. I'm always open to have a quick conversation with anyone who's interested. Sam Wilson 15:22 Jeremy, thanks so much. Have a great rest of your day. Appreciate it. Jeremy Cisneros 15:24 You too, Sam.
