Chancery Royalty targets fivefold growth as it builds a Gold and Silver royalty portfolio

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Chancery Royalty CEO Jeremy Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's strategy of building a leading precious metals royalty business focused exclusively on gold and silver assets. Backed by a management team with decades of mine-building and operational experience, the company is positioning itself to capitalize on attractive royalty opportunities that may be overlooked by larger competitors in the sector. Gray explained that the leadership team brings an extensive track record of success in the mining industry, having previously helped develop and operate several notable gold companies and projects, including Pilar Gold, Laiva Gold in Finland, Tucano Gold, Great Panther, and Gold Road in Arizona. Having gained firsthand experience creating value through mine development and operations, the team is now applying that expertise to the royalty business model, which offers exposure to production growth while minimizing operational and capital risks. Chancery Royalty currently holds five royalty assets, one of which is already generating revenue through production. The remaining four assets are expected to advance into production over the next 12 to 18 months, creating the potential for a growing stream of royalty income as development milestones are achieved. The company's investment strategy is focused exclusively on gold and silver royalties, targeting opportunities that offer meaningful gold equivalent ounce growth potential. Gray noted that Chancery seeks assets that may not attract the attention of larger royalty companies but still possess strong fundamentals, development pathways, and the potential to generate significant long-term value. One of the company's most significant recent transactions was a US$20 million royalty agreement with KEFI Copper and Gold involving a major project in Ethiopia. Gray described the asset as “probably the best undeveloped gold mine in Africa,” highlighting its scale and development potential. The transaction is expected to add approximately 7,000 GEOs to Chancery's portfolio, representing a substantial increase in future royalty exposure. The KEFI transaction aligns with Chancery's broader growth objective of expanding its royalty portfolio from approximately 4,000 GEOs today to 20,000 GEOs within the next two years. Management believes achieving this target would significantly increase the company's revenue potential and establish a stronger foundation for long-term growth. Gray also discussed additional royalty opportunities currently under evaluation. These include recent activity involving Buxton, as well as prospective transactions in key mining jurisdictions such as Timmins, one of Canada's most prolific gold-producing districts. The company is also reviewing another near-term production royalty opportunity that could further accelerate portfolio growth.

[Recorded on May 14th, 2026]  Dave Cole, CEO of Elemental Royalty Corporation (TSX: ELE) (Nasdaq: ELE), joins me to unpack their news out on May 14th announcing that they have entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Vizsla Royalties Corp. (TSX-V: VROY; OTCQX: VROY) by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement.  We also review the Company's Q1 2026 financials and their multiple strategies for continued royalty portfolio grow.   Vizsla Royalties Acquisition Transaction Highlights:   Combination of Vizsla Royalties' silver-gold Panuco royalty with Elemental's high-quality, diversified portfolio creates a platform of cash-flowing and near-term development royalties with long-term growth potential Opportunity to gain exposure to a high-quality royalty over an advanced development project Vizsla Royalties is projected to add approximately 7,500 GEOs[1] per year once in production, providing future revenue uplift as a new cornerstone asset in the Elemental portfolio, and material exposure to silver Life of mine 2.0%-3.5% net smelter returns (“NSR”) royalty, uncapped with no buy-backs or step-downs Substantial exploration upside across a large, under-explored and highly prospective land package Improved trading liquidity and enhanced capital markets profile, further strengthening Elemental as a leading intermediate royalty peer     Q1 2026 Financial Highlights   Record quarterly revenue of US$24.3 million, up 83% over revenue plus attributable share of Caserones in Q1 2025; Gold Equivalent Ounces (“GEOs”) of 4,983 for Q1 2026 (4,606 in Q1 2025), driven by significant contributions from Karlawinda, Bonikro, Timok, and Caserones; Record adjusted EBITDA of US$17.7 million, up 55% over adjusted EBITDA in Q1 2025, reflecting increased operating leverage and portfolio performance; Operating cash flow of US$14.5 million, up 340% over adjusted operating cash flow1 in the comparative period demonstrating strong cash flow conversion; and Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026of US$69.1 million and working capital of US$92.5 million, demonstrating financial flexibility for growth.   Next, we touched upon some of the key gold and silver cornerstone assets within their royalty portfolio of 18 producing royalties, 30 advanced development assets, and ~200 total mineral royalties globally; diversified across multiple jurisdictions and across precious metals, critical minerals, and battery metals.    Dave points to 4 different approaches to continue to grow future value in Elemental Royalty Corp.  Beyond the organic development growth still on tap within their portfolio of royalties, there is the future upside of their continued royalty generation strategy, the potential for larger future royalty acquisitions and/or royalty financings to create new royalties, and they are always reviewing the potential for accretive M&A opportunities.  The company has plenty of firepower to pursue accretive transactions; with near ~$200Million in combined cash and working capital plus a revolving credit facility, with an accordion feature.   We also discuss the new dividend optionality of being paid in either cash or Tether Gold tokens, (which are backed by physical gold); and the corresponding value of having Tether Investments S.A. de C.V as their key stakeholder.   Dave believes their Company is on the cutting edge of marrying the value of hard assets anchored in commodities and royalty instruments, with the interest from investors in the utility of digital assets.       If you have any follow up questions for Dave or the team at Elemental Royalty Corp, then please email those to me at  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Elemental Royalty Corp at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click to follow the latest news from Elemental Royalty Corp   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Jordan aka Mining Stock Monkey – Q1 Earnings Review in Gold and Silver Producers and Royalty Companies, Share Buybacks, Dividends, Acquisitions, and Copper Exposure

Jordan Rusche, Founder of Mining Stock Monkey, joins us for an in-depth and nuanced discussion around key metrics and trends in Q1 earnings reports from the gold and silver producers and PM royalty companies; along with which companies he is actively trading in his portfolio.    We start out getting Jordan's perspectives from this Q1 earnings season in the PM producers, touching upon initiatives around paying down debt, share buybacks, and dividends.  We counterbalance those trends with how companies are also investing in growth through mergers and acquisitions. We discuss some general takeaways in the earnings reports from how the majors are managing increasing costs from higher fuel costs to labor to sustaining capital in Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, ASX: NEM, PNGX: NEM), Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE:B)(TSX:ABX), and Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM) (TSX: AEM) . We check in on the positive market reaction in the Q1 report from B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO, NYSE AMERICAN: BTG, NSX: B2G), but Jordan also couches the enthusiasm with the fundamental factors pointing to the potential for rising AISC figures for the balance of this year. Jordan breaks down why Agnico Eagle paid a premium for Rupert Resources Ltd (TSX: RUP) (OTCQX: RUPRF) (FSE:R05), in the recent acquisition of their project in Finland. Next we shifted over to the record revenues witnessed in Q1 earnings reports from the royalty and streaming companies.  While revenues are up in a big way, that is not typically been from growing gold equivalent ounces (GEOs).  Jordan highlights the longer-term investing thesis required to realize the growth potential in production metrics in a company like Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD). Sticking with royalty companies, Jordan highlights the strong copper exposure and future growth on tap across multiple commodities in Elemental Royalty Corporation (TSXV: ELE) (NASDAQ: ELE).      Get 25% off Mining Stock Monkey VIP. {Limited to 10 sign ups}: https://miningstockmonkey.com/products/vip?promo=KE25MAY     Sign up for Jordan's free “Silverback Letter” here: https://miningstockmonkey.substack.com     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Versamet Royalties -  Acquisition of 3.52 Percent Gold Stream on Production at Eskay Creek Slated To Commence In 2027

Paul Jones, President of Versamet Royalties (TSX: VMET) (NASDAQ: VMET), joins us to outline the key benefits and considerations from the news on April 6th which announced their acquisition of a 3.52% existing gold stream, from fund entities managed by Orion Resource Partners LP and fund entities managed by affiliates of Blackstone Inc., in respect of gold production from the Eskay Creek gold-silver project; owned and operated by Skeena Resources Limited, and located in British Columbia, Canada,   Versamet paid an upfront cash payment of $340 million and issued 2,054,906 common shares to the Vendors. Versamet funded the upfront cash payment through an amended and restated credit facility, which includes an increase of the existing revolving facility from $200 million to $250 million, maturing in March 2029, and a new term facility in the amount of $150 million, maturing in March 2028, for a combined total of $400 million, from the Bank of Montreal and National Bank of Canada. The Amended Credit Facility provides for a $100 million accordion on the revolving facility once the term facility has been repaid in full.   Gold Stream Summary   Gold Stream:Under the Gold Stream, Versamet is entitled to receive 3.52% of the payable gold production for the life of the mine, provided that the mine successfully achieves certain completion tests on or before September 30, 2027. The Gold Stream is uncapped and has no step-downs or buydown provisions and includes an area of interest. Production Profile:Eskay is expected to produce an average of over 300,000 ounces of gold per year in its first 5 years and an average of approximately 230,000 ounces of gold per year over its initial 12 year life. Delivery Payments:For gold ounces delivered to the Gold Stream, Versamet will make ongoing cash payments equal to 10% of the spot gold price at the time of delivery. Gold Stream Percentage:If the completion tests are not satisfied by September 30, 2027, the stream percentage shall increase to 3.57%, 3.62% and 3.67% if completion is achieved in the first, second or third calendar quarters following September 30, 2027, respectively, and a further additional 0.13% per quarter for the remaining calendar quarters until satisfaction of the completion test. Minimum Delivery Provision:If a cumulative total of 2.61 million ounces of payable gold applicable to the Gold Stream has not been produced by April 1, 2040, Versamet is entitled to a one-time delivery of gold equal to the difference between cumulative gold ounces delivered to the Gold Stream at the time and 2.61 million ounces multiplied by the Gold Stream percentage at the time. Security:The Gold Stream is secured over the Eskay Creek project assets.   Paul highlights the nuances between streams versus royalties, the positive tax treatment the stream will receive, the importance of partnering on robust projects with strong operators, and the torque that royalty companies can have if they can demonstrate meaningful growth to the market.    Once Eskay is up and operating at full commercial production, it should augment the projected 20,000-23,000 Gold Equivalent Ounces (GEOs) by an additional 10,000 GEOs per annum.  Paul points out that by borrowing approximately 1/3 of their overall market cap, that they've increased the GEOs by essentially half; not including any future exploration or production upside on the Project.     If you have any follow up questions for the team over at West Red Lake Gold please email us at Fleck@kereport.com and Shad@kereport.com.     Click here to follow the latest news from Versamet Royalties     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Mark Brennan,  Founder, CEO, and Director of Cerrado Gold Inc (TSX.V: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF), joins me to review their Q3 2025 financial and operational metrics at the producing Minera Don Nicolas (MDN) gold mine in Argentina. We discuss the aggressive 70,000 meter exploration program on tap for MDN into 2026, and unpack the key upcoming development catalysts at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project in Portugal and the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium project in Quebec.   Q3 2025 Financial Highlights Gold equivalent production of 13,832 Gold Equivalent Ounces (“GEO”) vs 11,437 GEOs in Q2 2025 (+21%) at an AISC of $1,915/oz Adjusted EBITDA of $11.8 million for Q3 2025, and Cash at $16.5 million Partial hedge expires end December increasing future gold sale prices Full year guidance of 50,000-55,000 GEO maintained: Heap leach production growing as expanded crushing capacity and improved recoveries result in another record of quarterly production of 10,429 GEO (+33% vs Q2) Q4 Underground mining production ramping up with underground development at Paloma advancing, and three access portals targeted to reach production stopes by year-end. CIL plant starting to receive ore from underground development, production expected to ramp up in Q4/2025 as higher-grade underground material supplants lower grade stockpile feed in the mill 20,000 meter exploration program expanded by 50,000 meters to a 70,000 meter surface program, with additional rigs to arrive in the fourth quarter   Mark and I review their Minera Don Nicolas producing gold project in Argentina, and the record heap leach gold equivalent ounce production for the quarter. There is expanded and improved crushing capacity at the heap leach, from the newly installed secondary crusher, and this will continue to be impactful on a move-forward basis in Q4 and beyond, with the quantity of ore being placed on the pad having increased, and with it helping to reduce down unit costs in the latter part of H2 2025.   Next we unpacked the growing value proposition at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project  in Portugal, with a Post-tax NPV of US$147 million and a 39% IRR in the current Feasibility Study. This Project adds both substantial precious metals resources along with critical minerals exposure (42 % Gold & Silver, 24% zinc, 14% copper, and 5% tin) to the future production profile.  We also discuss the various work streams leading to optimized Feasibility Study in Q4, a construction decision by mid-2026, and with first production slated for early 2028.   We wrap up discussing the underappreciated value and ongoing derisking work that is moving towards a Bankable Feasibility Study which has been moved back to Q2 of 2026 at the Mont Sorcier Iron Project in Quebec. Recent metallurgical test work, has reaffirmed the potential to produce high-grade and high-purity iron concentrate grading in excess of 67% iron with silica and alumina content below 2.3%.     If you have questions for Mark regarding Cerrado Gold, then please email those to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Cerrado Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to see the latest news from Cerrado Gold.   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Paul Jones, VP of Corporate Development at Versamet Royalties (TSX.V: VMET), joins us to review the key metrics from the record Q3 financials, the recent news where Tether and the Lundin family have become strategic shareholders, and a look ahead to future mid-sized royalty and streaming transactions to grow. Additionally, we discuss the benefits of the coming big board US exchange listing.   Third Quarter 2025 Highlights    Record revenue of $8.1 million, an increase of 155% over Q3 2024.  Record attributable gold equivalent ounces (“GEOs”) of 2,699, an increase of 110% over Q3 2024.  Record operating cash flow before working capital changes of $6.1 million, an increase of 206% over Q3 2024.  Acquisition of a significant silver stream on the operating Rosh Pinah Zinc mine in Namibia and a polymetallic royalty on the operating Santa Rita mine in Brazil, both operated by Appian Capital Advisory Limited (“Appian”).  Inaugural royalty revenues from the Kiaka and Santa Rita mines.     Paul reviews the record Q3 revenues, GEOs and cash flow, and highlighted the immediate benefits of company's recent largest transaction to date with the acquisition of a significant silver stream on Rosh Pinah Zinc, a high-quality mine in Namibia that is currently undergoing an expansion, and a royalty on Santa Rita in Brazil, a top tier nickel-sulphide mine. The addition of these expanding cash-flowing assets have had a significant impact to Versamet's combined gold equivalent ounces, with ~10,000 GEOs projected in 2025, and up to ~20,000 GEOs by 2026.  This translates over to ~$70M in annual revenue targeted for next year, using consensus gold prices, and even higher than that at current spot prices.   We go on to discuss with Paul the Company's current valuation, their plans for growth through accretive acquisitions, and the advantage of the mid-size deal flow they can pursue as one of only a few mid-tier precious metals royalty and streaming companies.   Wrapping up Paul highlights the strong endorsement of the quality of their assets from the recent news of Tether Investments S.A. de C.V. and the Lundin Family Trusts both coming in as new 12.7% cornerstone shareholders of the Company respectively.  We also review the liquidity benefits, broader investor base, and potential for more ETF inclusion through the coming U.S. big board exchange listing.     If you have any questions for Paul regarding Versamet Royalties, then please email those in to us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Versamet Royalties   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/   Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Dan O'Flaherty, CEO of Versamet Royalties (TSX.V: VMET), joins me to provide an update on the recent acquisition of both a silver stream and net smelter royalty on cash-flowing producing assets from Appian Capital.  We also take a deeper dive into the value proposition embedded in their portfolio of streams and royalties, and the triple-pronged approach to growth for this newer royalty company, that just listed publicly back in May of this year. Dan previously led Maverix Metals, which sold to Triple Flag in 2023, and now he's building Versamet to fill the gap between junior royalty players and the multi‑billion‑dollar majors.   Key Highlights from Our Discussion:   Closed an agreement on September 24th for the acquisition of two long-life, high-quality, producing assets from Appian Capital Advisory; with immediate cash flow for an up-front cash consideration of $125 million. Rosh Pinah Zinc - a 90% silver stream an operating underground mine in Namibia with over 55 years of mining history and a long history of resource additions and significant exploration potential Santa Rita - a 2.75% net smelter return royalty (NSR) on a top tier nickel sulphide mine located in Bahia state, Brazil, currently producing from an open pit. The Stream and NSR Royalty are expected to contribute approximately 5,000 gold equivalent ounces ("GEOs") in 2026 using analyst consensus metal prices. Cash‑flow focus: From ~10,000 GEOs in 2025 to ~20,000 GEOs by 2026, translating to over $70M in annual revenue targeted for next year, using consensus gold prices, and even higher than that at current spot prices. Balance sheet strength: Paid off initial debt out of robust revenues, before adding this recent debt on the back of these 2 acquisitions; with a roadmap to paying that back down in an accelerated fashion from quarterly cashflows. Rapid portfolio growth: Over US$400M in acquisitions since 2022, growing Versamet's market cap to over CAD$800 million. We review how several key strategic stakeholders got into partnership with Versamet including: B2Gold (33%), Sandstorm (25%), and Equinox Gold (13%) as cornerstone shareholders, providing technical strength and deal flow. Investors today can get an early mover advantage before more institutional investors and passive fund investments have entered the story. Triple-pronged approach to growth: (1) Near‑term organic growth from within their existing portfolio of royalties and streams, (2) future accretive acquisitions, and (3) the coming U.S. listing for more liquidity, a broader investor base, and the potential inclusion in funds and ETFs.     If you have any questions for Dan regarding Versamet Royalties, then please email those in to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Versamet Royalties

You've probably seen people on TikTok say GEO is the new SEO. But here's the problem… most of them are mixing up two completely different GEOs. One is Generative Engine Optimization, how AI engines like ChatGPT decide who to recommend. The other is geo-positioning, making sure your service and location actually show up together online. Both matter. And if you don't get this straight, you'll stay invisible in 2025.

Si le rap s'est imposé comme une poule aux œufs d'or dans l'industrie musicale internationale, il est aussi associé à une masculinité ultra-virile. Une figure calibrée pour vendre qui cristallise les critiques les plus virulentes : sexisme, homophobie, apologie de la violence… Des critiques qui interrogent rarement les rapports de pouvoir au sein du rap game. Le rap est-il intrinsèquement viriliste ? Quels types de masculinité l'industrie du rap ou les médias valorisent-ils ? Comment le genre musical le plus populaire de France est-il devenu un miroir grossissant de notre société patriarcale ?Dans ce premier épisode de cette mini-série sur le rap et les masculinités, l'animateur radio et rappeur José Tippenhauer (alias Geos) reçoit Benjamine Weill, philosophe de formation et travailleuse sociale. Dans son livre « À qui profite le sale ? Sexisme, racisme et capitalisme dans le rap français » (éd. Payot, 2023), elle interroge les dérives du rap français, entre héritage contestataire et exploitation capitaliste.RÉFÉRENCES CITÉES DANS L'ÉMISSION Retrouvez toutes les références citées dans l'épisode à la page : https://www.binge.audio/podcast/les-couilles-sur-la-table/rap-concours-de-beatsCRÉDITSLes Couilles sur la table est un podcast créé par Victoire Tuaillon produit par Binge Audio.

We also discuss the financial and development growth on tap for 2025, with updates at key royalty partner operations.   Full Year 2024 Highlights:   Record revenue of US$16.3 million and record adjusted revenue1 of US$21.6 million, up 39% on 2023 Gold Equivalent Ounces1 ("GEOs") of 8,987 ounces (9,122 GEOs in 2023) with production from Korali-Sud pushed into Q1 2025 Record Operating Cash Flow plus Caserones dividends of US$8.7 million, up 42% on 2023, and record adjusted EBITDA1 of US$15.1 million, up 53% on 2023 US$33.5 million of accretive royalty acquisitions including producing gold royalties over Bonikro, Ballarat and SKO mines Repayment of US$27 million of debt, with remaining debt repaid in full in Q1 2025 leaving a fully undrawn US$50 million facility with NBC, CIBC and RBC   Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights:   Record Q4 revenue of US$5.5 million and record adjusted revenue1 of US$6.8 million, up 21% on Q4 2023 and with no contribution from Korali-Sud Q4 attributable GEOs1 of 2,552 ounces (2,843 GEOs in Q4 2023) Record Operating Cash Flow plus Caserones dividends of US$3.3 million, up 54% on Q4 2023, and record Q4 adjusted EBITDA1 of US$4.8 million, up 72% on Q4 2023   2025 Outlook   Record guidance of 11,600 to 13,200 GEOs, translating to record adjusted revenue of US$30.1 million to US$34.3 million, based on a gold price of US$2,600/oz and a copper price of US$4.00/lb This represents a 38% increase in GEOs and 50% year-on-year increase in adjusted revenue at the mid-point of guidance, with full exposure to higher gold prices Production is anticipated to be weighted towards the first half of the year, driven by first gold sales at the Korali-Sud royalty and Caserones shipments delayed from Q4 2024 into Q1 2025 Up to US$15 million in one-off payments, with over US$10 million expected in the first half of the year   Fred breaks down the financial strength of the company, and the leverage of it's balance sheet to rising production and revenues in a higher metals price environment.

We also review the outlook for 2025, the addition of a new board member, and then dig into some updates for ongoing growth at key royalty partner operations.   Preliminary Financial Highlights for Q4 and Full Year 2024 Results:   Record preliminary adjusted 2024 revenue of US$21.6 million (+21% vs 2023) comprised of: US$16.3 million attributable royalty revenue; and US$5.3 million attributable revenue from the Caserones copper mine Record preliminary adjusted Q4 revenue of US$6.8 million (+21% vs Q4 2023) comprised of: US$5.5 million attributable royalty revenue; and US$1.3 million attributable revenue from the Caserones copper mine   Dave breaks down the financial strength of the company, and the leverage of it's balance sheet to rising production and revenues in a higher metals price environment.

David Baker, CFO of Elemental Altus Royalties (TSX.V:ELE – OTCQX:ELEMF), joins me to review their operational and financial results from Q2 2024, and some key royalty project updates at Diba, Karlawinda, Bonikro, Wahgnion, Caserones, and Cactus.  We also discuss where the growth will be coming from within their existing portfolio as well as the types of future acquisitions the team is working on.   We start off diving into the key metrics and takeaways from the second quarter financials:   Royalty revenue of US$3.8 million and adjusted revenue of US$5.2 million, up 10% on Q2 2023 Attributable Gold Equivalent Ounces ("GEOs") of 2,211 ounces, down 7% on Q2 2023 Operating Cash Flow plus Caserones dividends of US$1.4 million, down 33% on Q2 2023 primarily due to working capital movements Adjusted EBITDA of US$3.4 million, up 3% on Q2 2023 Repayment of a further $5.0 million under the credit facility and extension of the maturity date to June 2027 Cash balance of US$6.5 million and outstanding debt of US$20.0 million as at June 30, 2024 Elemental Altus is on track to meet the lower end of guidance of 10,000 to 11,700 GEOs and the higher end of expected revenue of US$20.0 to US$23.3 million. Production remains weighted to H2 2024, particularly for the new Diba royalty, while the lower relative performance of the copper price to gold drives the increased difference between GEOs and revenue The Company intends to continue reducing the amount drawn on the credit facility, reducing interest costs while maintaining flexibility for new acquisitions   We then transition over to discussing some of the key royalty projects and updates from royalty partners, and the related future production and revenue growth expected from various projects like Diba, Karlawinda, and Bonikro. Next we discussed the passing of the baton from Lilium Mining over to the nationalized operations by Burkina Faso at Wahgnion, but that essentially it's the same operations team it has been since Teranga and Endeavour Mining, and that the royalties have and will keep coming in for years to come. We spent some time with larger copper royalty on the Caserones project, noting that the brief labor dispute earlier this month did not really affect production, and that Lundin Mining has even increased guidance on production.  Then we looked at the larger resources and mine plan released recently from Arizona Sonoran on their Cactus project, and how this means a slightly deferred but much larger production profile over the portion of the project that Elemental Altus holds a royalty over.   Wrapping up we discussed the pipeline of single royalty deals and larger portfolio acquisitions that the company is reviewing, and their capacity to source more deals between their credit facilities, cash on hand, incoming cashflows, and other larger one-off payments expected to keep coming in.   If you have any follow up questions for David regarding Elemental Altus Royalties, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Elemental Altus Royalties at the time of this recording.   Click here to view recent news on the Elemental Altus Royalties website

Allied Gold Corp (TSX: AAUC) have announced that mining is expected to commence in Q2 2024 Elemental Altus on course to meet guidance of 10,000 to 11,700 GEOs as production increases over the year. This guidance represents at its midpoint a 19% increase on 2023 and provides top-line exposure to gold and copper prices Repaid US$5 million debt in Q1 2024, leaving US$25 million undrawn on the credit facility and with approximately US$9 million cash on quarter end prior to Q1 royalty receipts. The Company intends to continue to reduce the amount drawn on the credit facility while maintaining financial flexibility to make new acquisitions Falling G&A expenditure and significant expected cash flow generation following merger synergies and asset sales, which are also expected to generate milestone payments placing the company in a position to generate material cash flow   During the interview we reviewed th increasing revenue and expanding margins over the course of 2024, and why the company strategy was to aggressively go after cash-flowing assets. We then highlighted that the Diba royalty is on track to commence mining in Q2 and has the potential to be a material long-life royalty for the company based on the exploration potential once it is in production. Fred discusses how this complements other long-life royalty assets like Karlawinda and Caserones, as key cornerstone assets.   We also discussed the large portfolio of development and explorations assets that will provide discovery optionality to future value creation.  To that point we discussed the recent acquisition of a royalty over a Rio Tinto operated lithium project in Rwanda, where the Company expect to see significant news flow over the course of 2024. The company is cashed up and looking to make more accretive acquisitions over the course of this year.   If you have any follow up questions for Fred regarding Elemental Altus Royalties, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to view recent news on the Elemental Altus Royalties website

According to The Economist, grandparents comprise 20% of the world's population. And it's estimated that about half are long distance grandparents who do not live in close proximity to their grandchildren. (And if you're not a long distance grandparent today, stay tuned - you could be someday). According to a study by AARP, while half of today's grandparents are long distance grandparents, it's on the rise. Kerry Byrne, PhD, founder of The Long Distance Grandparent, is on a mission to provide grandparents with the tools to build strong and meaningful relationships with their grandchildren. Kerry Byrne joins us from Toronto. __________________________ Bio Kerry Byrne, PhD, has studied aging and care for 25 years. She is the Founder of The Long Distance Grandparent, a mission driven business helping grandparents build strong bonds with their grandchildren from a distance. From universities to businesses and not-for-profits to policy think tanks, Kerry's approach to any challenge is solution - focused and strengths-based. That's why she focuses on practical, but meaningful ways to build bonds with your grandchildren. As a mum to 2, with grandparents living at a distance, she believes children need their grandparents, now more than ever – no matter the distance between. You can find her on any given day working hard to make sure grandparents and grandchildren from all over the world are connecting in meaningful and fun ways. ___________________________ For More on Kerry Byrne, PhD The Long Distance Grandparent ___________________________ Mentioned in This Podcast Episode The Age of The Grandparent Has Arrived - The Economist ___________________________ Podcast Episodes You Make Like The Mindful Grandparent – Dr. Shirley Showalter Where Two Worlds Meet – Jerry Witkovsky & Deanna Shoss All Grown Up – Celia Dodd _____________________________ Wise Quotes On the Age of the Grandparent "I think people are surprised by a couple of things. One is the sheer number of grandparents that we have. So The Economist just published a great article called The Age of the Grandparent has Arrived, and they had some fancy demographics. Look at how many grandparents we have in worldwide: there are 1.5 billion grandparents. There are over 70 million grandparents in America alone. I think the other stat that is very surprising to people is the age at which someone usually becomes a grandparent, because that's 50 for women, a touch older for men, but not much more. And the third one I would say is that around by the time someone hits 75, almost 90% of people are a grandparent. So this is a huge burgeoning group, with quite a long period of time to contribute and to be intentional in their grandparenting." On Play "And I think sticking to it is really important and being willing to try new things and be silly and playful. Play really builds trust. That's how we build relationships with grandchildren of all ages. So whether they are 2 or 22, don't be afraid to do something that's just a little bit silly to surprise and delight them in that connection. Send them a funny face selfie. A 22 year old grandchild will think that's really goofy, and a teenage grandchild might roll their eyes at that, but that's a connection point and that's how we connect with people, really all of our relationships are very much based in play." On Being a Grand Encouragement Officer "Grandparents are the GEOs of their family - and this is a Grand Encouragement Officer. We see this in the research that grandchildren who report emotionally close relationships, to their grandparents also report high levels of affectionate ...

Richard Royal: Life Reflected in Glass

Talking Out Your Glass podcast

Richard Royal, a native of the Northwest, has become recognized internationally as one of the most skilled and talented glassblowers in the Studio Glass movement. Bodies of work such as his early Diamond Cut series to the more recent Geometrics are the hallmarks of his successful career in glass. The artist began working as a glass sculptor in 1978 at the Pilchuck Glass School, located north of Seattle. After spending a number of years as a ceramist, the birth of a new artistic movement appealed to the young artist.  Working his way through the ranks, Royal became one of Dale Chihuly's main gaffers. This relationship lasted for a number of years and consequently led to Royal's emergence in the art market in the 1980s. He has since been an independent artist exhibiting work internationally in both solo and group exhibitions. Wrote gallerist, Ken Saunders: “When Royal joined the staff of Pilchuck it was ostensibly as a maintenance man. In those early days a guy hired to clean up and a guy hired to drive a truck – Royal and William Morris respectively – might easily find themselves assisting the world's greatest glassblowers as they worked the hot glass, in demonstrations for students and for themselves after hours and after the summer sessions had ended for the season. Though Royal was introduced to glass as a student at the Central Washington University he pursued an interest in ceramics and in 1972, he and fellow student Ben Moore built a studio in their hometown of Olympia, Washington. There they created a line of production objects made from clay. The young men worked compulsively and energetically but typically found themselves in bohemian circumstances. Royal made his rent money building high-end wood furniture and endeavored to keep the studio viable while Moore enrolled in the under-graduate program at the California College of Arts. At CCA Moore met Marvin Lipofsky, who was running the glass program, though Moore did not participate in glass at that time and went on to earn his undergrad degree in ceramics. For graduation, Moore's parents gifted him with a session at Pilchuck Glass School in Stanwood, Washington. There, Moore met Chihuly who liked his energy and encouraged the young artist to help out during the summer programs at Pilchuck and later to attend RISD to earn an MFA in glass. As the small staff of the school expanded to accommodate the explosion of interest in the programming, Moore reached out to his buddy Royal, inviting him to join the staff in 1978. Royal jumped at the chance to get out of Olympia where maintaining the ceramics studio had become a lonely enterprise. ‘I'd heard about what was going on at Pilchuck but I was just thinking about having a job and getting fed regularly. I had no idea what was going to happen…it changed my life.' After spending the summer of 1978 at Pilchuck, working maintenance and, on many occasions, assisting in the hot-shop during classes and after hours, Royal was invited to stay for the fall to assist Chihuly with his work. Chihuly was assembling a large team that he felt would allow him to create ambitious, large- scale sculptures and installations… Once winter descended on the Pacific Northwest the team was forced to abandon Pilchuck for the season. Chihuly filled his calendar with Visiting Artist Residencies at colleges and universities around the country and took members of the team with him. Royal recalls the excitement: ‘We'd take over the art department and during our demonstrations the hot shop would be standing room only,' the team putting on what amounted to a performance with Chihuly playing the master of ceremonies breathlessly directing the action. ‘We would hit the campus like rock stars.' While Chihuly developed a very specific vision of a large studio employing extremely gifted crafts people to handle very specific tasks in an effort to harness the best each had to offer to the process, most artists working in glass in those days worked in very small teams, basically a handful of artist/friends who took turns leading the creation of their own works with the assistance of the others. ‘We all had our own ideas. In fact, when it was your turn you were expected to have your own ideas for your own work.' And led by the example set by Dale, ‘everybody was completely supportive of the others and willing to lend a hand if need be.' Dale set the tone, ‘really supporting whatever each of us wanted to create.'  Royal continued working with Chihuly for nearly 30 years until 2006,. He simultaneously worked at Benjamin Moore Inc. beginning in 1984.  Wrote Saunders: “Royal's first series of blown objects to find commercial and critical success, the Diamond Cut and Shelter Series, were begun at this time… The most important technical characteristic of this early work was the overlay of color on the outside of the bubble – a strategy that turns the usual process of picking up color first on its head. Royal describes the process: ‘In the Diamond Cut Series I overlaid four or five different colors on the outside of a bubble, brought the blank down to room temperature and used a diamond band saw to cut through those layers…I wanted to create an object that would allow you to look at the outside and inside simultaneously…This was a personal metaphor for exploration, looking inside.” The Shelter Series extended this metaphor reflecting profound changes he was going through emotionally, financially and professionally.  In 1989 his engagement and subsequent marriage to Jana led to Royal's Relationship Series. The form consists of a top and a bottom of equal size that meet and entwine around a smaller vessel at the center of the sculpture. ‘The Relationship pieces…show two equal entities coming together around a single idea.' Central to these works was the artist's sense of scale. Royal committed early on to working in the largest scale that was technically feasible. Those early bodies of work especially reflect the profound influence Moore and Chihuly had on the artist's work. Moore's tight technical approach was itself influenced by Italian Design. Moore blew on-center and his work is often characterized by a restrained use of color. Chihuly, on the other hand, had an organic sensibility but his approach to the creative impulse was as much informed by Warhol as by nature. His pieces were gestural, gaudy and loud in color and in form. Royal thinks that his work has benefited from the influence of these two opposites. In Royal's latest body of work, the Geos, the artist has sought to capture the qualities of kiln cast glass in his blown glass constructions. He has emphasized simple and subtle coloration and given the individual pieces a sculptural presence by referencing organic forms as opposed to utilitarian objects. The artist is also reinventing his Diamond Cut series, creating fresh new objects (such as those seen at the top of this page). Royal's work can be found in such noteworthy museum collections as The Mint Museum of Art + Design, The High Museum, the New Orleans Museum of Art, The Tampa Museum of Art, and the Daiichi Museum (Japan). His artwork is also included in the SAFECO Collection, PricewaterhouseCoopers, IBM, and the Westinghouse Corporation. One of the first Artists-in-Residence at the Waterford Crystal Factory, Royal continues to teach as both a guest artist and faculty member at various universities and the Pilchuck Glass School. A past grant recipient from the National Endowment for the Arts, he has served as a visiting artist at the Corning Museum of Glass, the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, Ohio State University and the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Welcome to another episode of the remote real estate investor. I'm Michael album and today I'm joined by Matt and Alex, two of our agents as part of Roofstock Certified agent network down in South Carolina. And they're going to be talking to us today about the Greenville and Spartanburg markets and everything we as investors need to know about it. So let's get into it.   Matt Crawford, Alex Fisher, how are you guys?   Man? We're doing great Michael here. Thank you guys so much for having us. Good to be here.   I guess. Yeah, our pleasure. So I know you because I work with you guys regularly as part of our certified agent network with Roofstock. But for anyone who might not be familiar with who you are, give us a quick rundown who you are. Where do you live? What what markets do you operate in? And what is it that you're all doing in real estate?   Absolutely. So for everybody out there, you know, welcome to the Roofstock remote podcast as you guys know, Michael, he's a champion of the people he's the one in the van rockin. But for us, you know me now it's we're the greatest broker Team roofstock has ever seen. That lightly, but I do mean it. I think we're very passionate about we, that what we do, how we present the products to you guys, as consumers. And as the educational base, you know, we're very thankful for the opportunity. So we represent a couple of markets here in South Carolina. It's where Alex and I are born raised. Alex, you want to add two cents on top of that, sir?   Yeah, I mean, obviously, our hometown is Columbia, really anywhere in South Carolina. That's where we have most of our experience. And you know, we love doing nothing more than trying to get out here and make some people some money and find some good deals. So our obviously our go to is going to be South Carolina areas. Love it.   And why did you guys partner up? And how did you two meet?   That's such a long story. But it's been we've been kicking it for, like 12 years. And and you know, and we're both we're both 32. So I mean, we were we were young lads and our ladies at the time were like best friends. And you know, Alex's wife was always talking to my girl about meeting Alex and I thought he was strange because he was like, a financially adept teenager, like Alex had his first house and like nine years older, or like, 19, whatever. Don't none of those. And meet Alex just kept kicking it in. You know, Alex was working at one of the top four consultancy firms. PwC. And I was out in Denver, sort of so notes and Alex, you know, hats off to him. He'd call me like, every week, checking up on me, and it's like, Matt, you know, we got to get new real estate, we have the potential. He really convinced me to move back to South Carolina. And fast forward five years. We have our own companies now.   Love it. All right, you too. Well, let's talk about Greenville and Spartanburg, South Carolina. It's a market that I'm not very familiar with. And so we're going to, you know, talk to me, like I'm five years old walked me through. Why is are these markets? Interesting? Why should people be interested in investing in rental properties in these two markets? Yeah, so   I guess the main differences between, you know, the Upstate and Columbia is property values are a little bit higher. You know, Greenville is an incredibly cool city, especially compared to Columbia. So it's, it's pretty big, and it's owned, but there's a lot around Greenville, which would, you know, be the mountains, you know, it's convenient to the beach, which is maybe about two and a half, three hours away. But also, you've got the North Carolina, you've obviously got, you know, Clemson around the area. There's a lot of opportunities in regards to Reynolds because there are a lot of colleges around there. But you know, our biggest thing is pushing the appreciation, you're going to see that the rents are not keeping up as much with the property values are at least as quickly. But the good news is they are good opportunities for long term holds because of the appreciation and from what we've been seeing the appreciation there in the upstate in general is just much stronger than it is in Colombia, that the good thing about Colombia is the opportunity for rents because the rents are keeping up with the property values, but I think we're going to see a lot of that stuff slowly. You know, I guess level off a little Bit just based on how the market is kind of moving now. So then the rents will eventually kind of just end up evening out with what the appreciation is actually doing.   And Matt, who are some of the big employers, I know, Alex, you mentioned, Clemson and a lot of colleges around there, but are other than college students and college faculty. What are people moving to the area for for your typical jobs? I mean, are there big employers there?   Yeah, you know, I think Michael, you know, putting you in the frame of mind of like a new investor coming into South Carolina, and for all the investor, and whether you're 18 years old, looking for your first rental or a seasoned investor with 100 properties, I always like to sort of start at the origin story of the market. And Greenville upstate in general, is like the textile industry of the US. I mean, you got to look historically, in South Carolina and the South, you know, this is where a large majority of the cotton of the Indigo dies of anything the derivative of the textile industry, really was created. And that really set its roots into Greenville and to Spartanburg itself. So Greenville still has a ton of products from that era, which include huge textile mills. What that means from an investor's standpoint, is that you had all this workforce housing, you know, even my mom was from easily, which is about 25 minutes from downtown Greenville. They grew up on the Mill Hill. And so as you can imagine, it's perfect substance for the gentrification to happen, you know, and it's not 20 years ago, where we could buy a house for 75,000. And now it's worth 500. But you can still follow that development curve does molding out of Greenville into areas like easily fantastic market to look into. The biggest one, I think the all star of this podcast for everyone listening is going to be Travelers Rest. And I think Alex knows a lot about this as well. Because Greenville on the Clemson grab, right, Clemson, Clemson Tigers, you know, we're about 30 minutes past Greenville. And so I got to see this beautiful development happened in Greenville, which is just created a pretty high saturated market. So now for any investors and yourself, Michael, you know, I think pushing to the satellite markets that are still quite contingent to Greenville population and economic drivers makes the most sense. So that's really were trout interest is becoming an all stock market, low property purchase prices, you know, you're talking three twos 175,000 or less, the really good median rents, almost to the 1% rule. I don't think it's as sexy as here in Colombia. It is just because Greenville has already seen so much more maturation than here in the middle the state says Greenville, so biggest thing on Greenville. Here we go Pierre's driving in and if we drive in, travelers risks going to be you're looking at o'clock at 11 o'clock to us. So guys, if you're out there, you're wanting to see properties. I can guarantee if you Zillow, Greenville, you're gonna see stuff for like 300,000 400,000 that rinse 2500 or so now you go up to Travelers Rest, those economic numbers are totally going to flip flop. So please feel free to look at these kinds of products is the same MLS as Greenville. So Alex and I will be publishing properties. And then if we come back to the center of the city in Greenville, and look at nine o'clock on the clock hands, you're going to look at easily so it's directly to the left of Greenville. Sort of right in the left there to the screen. Thanks, Pierre. Also a great case study for what's happening in this market. As a lot of the renters, the investors and the development dollars are starting to bleed out of Greenville, which is sort of the cool analogy as Greenville really had its foothold in the indigo dye business. So if you can imagine this indigo dye starting to come out of this central geo easily is fantastic. You can still find great inventory. But even as Alex and I thought, Hey man, let's open up the upstate with roof stock ease these going to be just fish in a barrel. It's not the case. You know, it's still very, very saturated with investment and institutional dollars, which puts Traveler's Rest as my number one submarket   You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen. I love it, Matt. And to give people kind of a frame of reference, what was the general population of Greenberg? MSA?   Yeah, I think it's almost like 500,000 Okay, so it's pretty massive city. definitely bigger than I think it's like the fifth or sixth largest city in South Carolina. I definitely Being a local think it's like, probably number two of like, most sought after livable millennial culture cities. I think it goes Charleston and probably Greenville. And you know, guys, if you're looking for Airbnbs, totally different ballgame, we're talking totally different set of data here. But the short term rental market in Greenville is off the charts. And I think that is, yeah, definitely is perfectly perfectly tied to the nightlife and the culture that Greenville has done. And even just to dig a little deeper here, you know, 25 years ago, there really wasn't a main street or a main vein in Greenville, in fact, what they call false Park, which is a main park, and mainstream Greenville was beautiful, natural waterfall, it was actually covered by an overpass right here appears on a false park on the reading. So the Reedy River cuts to the city, this used to be covered up. And now in the last 10 to 15 years, they've probably dumped 100 million or more into this gorgeous walkable facility that has these natural features are just a beautiful suspension bridge. And that is has created this really nice culture that is in Greenville. And I think that's why the short term rental market really works if you're looking for higher property purchase prices, but I think your Airbnb models will be rock star here.   That's really interesting that and so talk to me a little bit about property taxes, because I think that's something that's always on people's mind is one of the a big expense that can either make or break in investment. So how do those work in in South Carolina? Or maybe more specifically, in Greenville?   Yeah, so typically what we do, and a lot of people don't realize this from the get go, but everybody's looking at Zillow, you can go to any house, and you can see what the roughly what the what the taxes would be. However, with Columbia, South Carolina, in general, the property taxes are different, you know, there's two different types of property taxes, you got an owner occupied and the non owner occupied and people don't realize the non owner occupied is obviously, you know, the, these big investors that come in, these are the taxes that these guys are gonna have to pay the small guys, whatever. So when you live in the house, and you look into Zillow, you're gonna see one number, but in reality, that number can essentially be doubled, when you start to consider that you're actually going to put a renter in place, which is a huge buzzkill for a lot of investors. But at the same time, once you kind of understand that is the case, now you can kind of work your numbers around you can kind of you'll you'll look in a different direction for the opportunity, I guess you could say. But typically, what we tell people is when it comes to taxes, the non unoccupied rate is going to be roughly and again, this is just a rule of thumb, this is not exact, is about two and a half percent of the purchase price that will give you a good gauge on, you know what your monthly cash flow would be. And as you can imagine, you know, what I would say is, you know, the owner occupied tax rate is probably around one to, you know, one and a half percent. So as you can imagine, you do the math, it's almost double what the the owner occupied rate is, which is very unfortunate. And that's probably been our biggest hurdle for the South Carolina markets. But again, you know, it just allows us to kind of, you know, I guess stretch our fingers out and see what we can find in regards to more off market properties. Maybe some smaller homes, but it really does make it more difficult for investors to actually go out and find something just because it does, it does hurt the cash flow a good bit.   Yeah, that makes total sense. And we talked a lot about Greenville. What about Spartanburg? What Should folks be aware of and where should they be looking out there?   Okay, cool. Cool. Let's uh, so drive the car, probably about 45 minutes east. And now we're at Sparkle city baby, which is sort of just a local term slang for Spartanburg that I can give no context to. I have no idea why they call it sparkle city, but it makes for a fantastic nickname. Totally. So we're driving the sparkle city. Or we're laying it down and to me, and I think even to Alex's standpoint, I'm a bigger fan of Spartanburg than Greenville. Granted, you know, snagging the Airbnb downtown mainstream Greenville. Sounds awesome. I think if you're looking to build long term rental portfolios, maybe two or three a year you're wanting to be in Spartanburg. That's just because it's more like a It's not rural in the sense, but it's more workforce housing. I think Greenville, you're going to be playing with a lot of individuals that are potentially, you know, making 80 to 100 grand a year. Not necessarily looking for a true three two rental whereas in Spartanburg it's definitely labor force and I think you find that labor force In the biggest BMW plant in the southeast, so BMW Michelin all have one of their largest manufacturing plants, right outside of Spartanburg. I think all the x five series beamers in the world are made here in this BMW plant. Which is beautiful. Yeah. So like you drive by it as it's as gorgeous setup. So really, really cool. And I think that's driven, this workforce class of tenants that you would see, of course, there's 10 colleges in Spartanburg. And if you were to visit Greenville, you're like, oh, man, this place is poppin. Like, there's Michelin star restaurants. In a beautiful downtown, you go to Spartanburg, there's like, you know, mom and pops, Biscuit Company, you know. But what you want to see, and from an investor's perspective, which I think looks good, is right downtown, is this brand new five star hotel, super swanky, beautiful rooftop, you walk into it, and you're like, oh, there's money here. Something's happening. And so to me, that says that a lot of these development dollars that have been looking around different GEOS here in South Carolina, finally, have seen Oh, Spartanburg is a super viable market, I would say maybe it's like Greenville, 15 years ago. And talk quick numbers. Whereas if you were in Greenville, your three two is 250,000. Your three two here is going to be a buck 50. So I mean, we're talking about $100,000. And price changes now that is reflected in the rent rates. That three two in Greenville is definitely a 1550 1695 monthly rent products. That same three two here in Spartanburg, you know, you are going to be looking at like 900 to $1,200. And I think that's just positioned on the type of tenant that we're commonly seeing here. But inventory is easier, you're not going to have such a saturation of buyers unless bidding wars. So I'm big fan and pro tip, bing, bing, bing, for everybody out there listening, I think, I don't know if you're gonna make that a sound but I'll do my own AdWords. I think that you know, me and Alex like, you know, we're we're we have a large acquisition base for different companies. And we're last two years has been a gauntlet with interest rates at 2.3%. Back in January of 2021. As of this year, this month, I just checked really like 5.6. And what we're seeing when we're checking foreclosure lists, we're looking at so many different counties across about 30 Different in essays is things are doubling every single month as far as foreclosures, as far as the evictions that are actually being filed in process. So what that means for you guys, as investors in the audience of the podcast is you get your cash ready. I think the bidding wars are the are finally starting to water down. So whether it is green, or whether it is Spartanburg, you're gonna see a lot more inventory and I think you're gonna have a lot more purchasing power, especially if you're coming with some kind of liquid cash on the deal.   Okay, good to know and what areas of Spartanburg really excites you.   You know Spartanburg,   if you made your number one call for Greenville, what's your number one call for Spartanburg   easy shot right in the heart of Gaston. Gaffney is just a subset right out of Spartanburg, you know I think Spartanburg is old enough to where you can put a stake downtown, though a 30 mile radius around it, and go shopping. That's how I would look on Zillow. But Gaffney in particular, a sub market really great, right on.   And if someone is coming into the South Carolina Market, just in general, or maybe these two markets specifically, what things should they be aware of? What's kind of common practice par for the course, like as an example out in California, we have termites, and so if you see a little bit of termite damage, that's not the end of the world, you can get it fixed, depending of course, about where it is and how pervasive it is. But what are some things that people should expect to see that might be red flags in their home market, that they shouldn't be too worried about?   Let's see around here. One of the more common things that, you know, becomes concerning, I mean, it comes concerning to anybody, but it is pretty normal. It's just more foundational issues. You know, having cracks in the foundation, unfortunately, is normal. But you know, when and I don't know how it is in California, but I know the second somebody sees you know, foundation cracks and stuff like that. It's definitely it becomes something very worrying. But from our perspective, we're like, look, this is normal. You know, we there's plenty of companies don't get me wrong, there are expensive, but there are plenty of companies that can go and help remediate that. At However, even at that point, you know, it's pretty easy to gauge, especially on the inspection reports how severe it's going to be. As long as it's nothing that's like, overall, structurally is going to be concerning, then we don't see it being a big deal just because it is normal. But again, that's from our perspective, we've never seen anything major come up. And if we do, you know, we were able to read through the inspection report and say, you know, hey, maybe we should get one of these guys out here from you know, foundation companies go have a look. But outside of that, from our perspective, that's fairly normal on any house, you end up going under contract on.   Yeah, totally agree with Alex there, we get all the crazy questions to Michael. A lot from this, this Cali investors are coming in even New York people. I'd say like, every time we have a California guy or girl, which we love, y'all, and we've even had a couple of really amazing people come meet me and Alex, here in South Carolina, from the properties that we've helped acquire. So shout out to all those guys, but they're always like, doing the hurricane insurance or like Ardea tornadoes, which is a regular thing to ask the Dow none of that, you know, soccer right, super chill, you know, especially Columbia. We're landlocked, you know, Charleston, definitely, you're gonna have hurricanes. But Greenville, it's good. I think on average is like five inches of snow, which is hit or miss. So very mild climate, and even sort of changing that question of as globally for South Carolina as an outdoor investor, what I would say to make it interesting is like, follow football. It was just about, you know, football, I think is really important to the nature of these different cities. So you know, Clemson University, if you're paying attention to that college, when they were rockin, it created this huge investment opportunity like massive, I cannot express how big the in real estate investment opportunity that was created offset football program. And it's the same thing with the Charlotte Panthers. They're building a brand new practice stadium and Rock Hill, investors are looking at these different data metrics. And even in Columbia, South Carolina with the University of South Carolina's football program is I would just pay attention to those sorts of fun monikers. And that's just another lens to look at an investing and what is important to that specific Geo. And those are just one of the very relatable things here in the South Carolina Market.   Now, that makes total sense. I know one of our other coaches, Tom Schneider, he loves looking at sports teams, and where they're moving and where they're building stadiums, because that's a huge, huge indicator, like you mentioned about like the hotel, big money going into an area. That's great. That's great. I'm curious to know, from your guys's perspectives, what should buyers be aware of how can they be more competitive? And how can they work better with you all and your teams to be competitive and win offers?   Well, so I'll actually say from my perspective, just to kind of give my quick little two cents, because we do see this daily. But our biggest thing is, you know, we've got a team of people that are behind, you know, the whole coordination piece, our number one goal is to get offers out the door at this point is kind of like you got to unfortunately, this isn't like it was two years ago, maybe you can make an offer on a house. And you know, there's only two other offers on it. Now. It's like you make an offer on a house. And now there's about 20 to 30 other other offers on it when you consider in these bigger markets like Columbia, Greenville, and Spartanburg. This is where all the big institutional guys are. And so these big institutional guys are buying in cash, which means you know, if you're buying through financing, it's going to make it very, very difficult to be competitive, especially with a lot of these guys doing, you know, three day diligence, five day diligence, which is something we don't really recommend, mainly because you know, it's very difficult to even get anybody out there and then get a report back. So our biggest thing is and kind of what we we feel like we can control on our end is the amount of offers that actually do go out. So instead of just pinpointing and finding, like, Hey, this is my favorite property, I want to try to win just this one. Our goal is, look, you just got to start, you know, shooting out offers, which is what our team is capable of doing. And then just hope that one sticks in don't get me wrong, obviously, we want the offers to be calculated. But you know, if you kind of get this tunnel vision and try to purchase one house and try to win that one house, you're you're going to be disappointed. There's nothing wrong with just trying to shoot out some offers. That's what our team can do. And all you got to do is just let us know where you go. Obviously go to roofstock and just start clicking on. Hey, I want to make an offer here. I want to make an offer here. But to your point, I mean people are getting over bid. The market right now is kind of unfair just because of these institutional guys. So if there's anything we could at least just give somebody as a takeaway is just make offers. Right now it's a numbers game and hopefully one will stay Pick, but you'll be a lot more likely to stick something than you would if you just try to, you know, kind of become narrow, narrow vision and try to make one offer at a time. It's just going to make it very, very difficult which is with with the way the market is now.   Yeah, makes total sense. Well, sir, I agree. That's perfect. Yes. Awesome. Well, guys, any final thoughts, tips, tricks, tidbits for folks that are listening things you think you want people to be aware of, of South Carolina Market?   You know, I think the, you know, quick sentiment, you know, to leave with you guys out there is, you know, me and Alex have been doing this for quite some time. I know, we're, we're young in blood, but we're old and experience, we're, you know, probably pass or 25th 100, you know, transaction, we've been a part of all these have been investment base. So we're not a residential agent. We're both brokers. So we really have put this as our passion, and our our life loads to support our families. So I think being a resource for you guys, your boots on the ground, providing all of our resources, we do our own flips. And we know the headaches with the flips, you know, we've gone through several, many several Renaud teams, and we've had to create processes and procedures to make sure that we're hitting our numbers and our timelines, and all of that experience, and physical resource, all these teams will be more than happy to open up that toolbox for you guys. Same thing with lenders, you know, dealing with, you know, tons of roofstock, transactions and ELTs. And otherwise, you know, we've pinpointed the best of the best. So, that being said, you know, I'm really, really proud of the team, Alex has helped create, the toolbox that we pieced together, and the family that we met at roofstock. And we want you guys to dig in the toolbox. Come and play. And I think we do it a little different. And that's what makes us stand out. I think, not just selecting property by property like Alex's was saying, Look anywhere look on Craigslist, Zillow, you know, wherever you want to and send us five properties and we don't mind drafting up five offers going out fishing, and if one hits great if several hit, you know, buy them all or pick the best one and we can drop during due diligence. You know, the biggest thing and I will put this star on our chest is we've never lost earnest money in our entire career. And that's because that's pretty impressive. The systems and the communication, you know, that's, that's over 2000 deals we've gone we've never lost it once and I remember Alex was like, Dude, we're never going to because he's, he's come from that consultancy background he has processes and automations to protect you guys and so love to show you these features, talk shop Let's rock and roll and really appreciate everything   Right on. What's the best way for folks to get in touch with you guys?   It's gonna be acquisitions@evernest.co so evernest.co And how I would like to do it is just shoot us an email and the team will set you up a call with me and Alex if you want to just chit chat or if you just want to jump into the rain like email five properties and say hey, I want to run these through the byo P program we Russa heard your podcast It was very strange.   And and we'll hook you up man this is like getting smarter. So that's a you know that's a sale how easy it is and we'd love to show you South Carolina. Another quick thing as you know, me and Alex do this across about probably like 10 states now you know we're from Texas, to Florida and about the southeast coastline. And I still very much like South Carolina and the data shows it has a lot of fruit. So come and join us and let's get financially free   Right on well thank you for taking the time hanging out with me I really appreciate it and can't wait to see we both go from here.   Michael you're the greatest, Pierre back there driving the ship Thank you sir. And to everybody tuning in. Keep catching the next episodes and good luck investment.   Right on, thanks guys. Talk soon.   See ya.   Okay, everyone, that was our episode A big thank you to Matt and Alex for taking the time hanging out with me and giving us all a driving tour of Spartanburg and Greenville. Definitely, definitely two markets that are worth checking out. As always, if you liked the episode, feel free to leave us a rating or review. Those are super helpful for us, and we look forward to seeing in the next one. Happy investing
