Maura allontana le paure e avvicina il calice di vino perché oggi è mercoledì, sono le 17 e queste fiorde urlano in coro "AMO, CHE SUZZ?", il che significa nuove notizie di cultura pop e non che apprenderai totalmente random e che apporteranno un cambiamento superfluo alla tua vita, a meno che tu non lo legga super fluo, in quel caso diventerai un catarifrangente Maura, o un UniPosca. Oggi a cominciare è Lele che ci porta nel magico mondo delle arti divinatorie, quelle che interpretano segnali o aspetti della vita per trovarne significati ulteriori, magari relativi al futuro o alla traduzione di un passato oscuro. In questo caso le pseudoscienze in questione sono l'Anomanzia, la Rumpologia, la Scatomanzia e l'Aeromanzia. Maura non pensavi veramente che Lele avrebbe portato qualcosa che esulasse dall'ano, lo scroto o il pisello vero? Parliamo comunque della nostra Virgo sanbenedettese, il lupo perde il pelo ma non il buco. Sandro invece ci porta alla scoperta del caso controverso di Natalie Wood, un'attrice che è venuta a mancare proprio come accade in un giallo: ci sono due uomini, una lite sfociata in ira, un delitto che non trova pace dopo anni di indagini. Tutto quello che possiamo dirti Maura? Che il capitano sa qualcosa, ma quanto valgono le parole di un uomo dopo 30 anni? Quanto si è disposti a credere a una verità che lascia tutti con l'amaro in bocca? Ma soprattutto se tutta sta supercazzola de intro non ti ha ancora convinta a fare play, che altro potrà mai riuscirci? Noi questo non lo sappiamo Maura, però sappi che a un certo punto in puntata ci chiediamo quale uomo italiano anziano ti viene in mente per primo quando senti parlare di un generico uomo anziano, rispondici nei commenti ihihi.

Giovanni Paolo II disse: Ciò che ci unisce è molto più di ciò che ci divide" e il profeta Gordon B. Hinckley ha aggiunto: "Noi non desideriamo litigare con alcuno. Desideriamo soltanto che la verità sia conosciuta e lasciare che gli uomini decidano per sé". In questo episodio esploriamo con Sara 8 differenze tra le due fedi cristiane e alcuni punti di unione.
Target Market Insights: Multifamily Real Estate Marketing Tips
Michael Blank is a real estate investor, author, speaker, and CEO of Nighthawk Equity. He's one of the leading authorities on apartment investing and financial freedom through multifamily real estate. With over $300 million in assets under management and author of Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing, Michael helps investors and aspiring entrepreneurs escape the W-2 grind by acquiring multifamily properties and building sustainable income streams. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Michael transitioned from tech to restaurants to real estate after early business setbacks during the 2000 and 2008 market crashes. Multifamily real estate offers superior risk-adjusted returns due to forced appreciation and operational control compared to single-family homes. Market sentiment is often wrong—investors must look past fear-based headlines and focus on long-term fundamentals. Today's market offers lower leverage, better pricing, and a strong long-term demand outlook for multifamily housing. Education and building sophistication as an investor is critical to identifying real opportunities, especially in volatile markets. Topics Michael's Journey into Multifamily Started in corporate software; was part of a major IPO just before the 2000 tech bubble crash. Lost significant capital in restaurant franchises during the 2008 recession. Began flipping houses before discovering multifamily through a 12-unit deal in DC that eventually sparked his passion for apartments. Built Nighthawk Equity and an education platform to help others achieve financial freedom through apartment investing. Understanding Risk-Adjusted Returns Multifamily offers superior downside protection compared to many other asset classes. Operational risk (property management) can be mitigated by using professional managers. Market risk can be managed by focusing on NOI-driven valuation rather than relying on market appreciation like single-family. Investors must evaluate underwriting assumptions—rent growth, vacancy, CapEx reserves, and debt terms—to fully assess risk. Why Multifamily is Attractively Priced Today Current deals are 30% below 2021 peak prices. Leverage is lower and more conservative, reducing financial risk. Interest rates are flat or declining, improving the outlook for new acquisitions. Long-term demand remains strong due to the lack of new affordable housing supply. Investor Sentiment and Sophistication Market sentiment swings often don't reflect true investment fundamentals. Sophisticated investors like institutions are returning to the market now while many retail investors remain fearful. Successful investing requires becoming a student of the market and evaluating data beyond media headlines. Raising Capital in Today's Market Focuses heavily on education to help investors understand why now may be a great buying window. Transparency, data-driven insights, and regular communication are key to re-engaging cautious investors. Building long-term relationships and trust remains critical to capital raising success.

When a property starts underperforming, vacancy creeps up, leads dry out, and concessions spiral, every day becomes more costly. Often, the onsite team is simply too close to the issue to see what is really broken. That is when a fresh perspective can make all the difference.

Può un computer diventare cosciente? La mente umana è solo un sofisticato algoritmo? In questo episodio de "La mia vita spaziale" esploriamo le rivoluzionarie tesi di Federico Faggin nel suo libro "Irriducibile".Faggin non è solo l'inventore del microprocessore e pioniere della Silicon Valley: è un pensatore che ha osato sfidare il riduzionismo dominante nella scienza contemporanea. Come dice lui stesso: "Gli scienziati riduzionisti materialisti non ammetteranno mai un mistero nelle cose che vedono, sempre rinviando di volta in volta aspettando una spiegazione riduzionista per ciò che è ancora ignoto... è esso stesso un atto di fede".Cosa scoprirai in questo episodio:• Il percorso personale di Faggin: da ingegnere dei microprocessori a filosofo della mente• L'autoconoscenza come impulso cosmico: non solo processo psicologico individuale, ma forza fondamentale dell'universo• Il rovesciamento materialista: non è la materia che genera coscienza, ma la coscienza che usa la materia come "inchiostro" per scrivere la sua conoscenza di sé• La critica al dogmatismo scientifico: perché il materialismo diventa paradossalmente una nuova forma di misticismo razionalista"Noi esseri umani non siamo gli unici pensanti in un universo che è cieco, meccanico, ma siamo protagonisti consapevoli di una grandiosa sinfonia di autorealizzazione universale" - una visione che ricorda Hegel, Spinoza e le filosofie mistiche orientali.Come sottolinea Andrea Brugnoli: "Questa teoria secondo me è decisiva per capire meglio anche l'intelligenza artificiale" - una riflessione quanto mai attuale nell'era dell'AI generativa.Timestamp principali:00:00 - Introduzione: Federico Faggin e il libro "Irriducibile"02:30 - L'autoconoscenza come impulso cosmico universale05:20 - La critica al materialismo scientifico08:10 - Il paradosso del riduzionismo come atto di fede12:00 - L'universo come autobiografia cosmica15:45 - La materia come "inchiostro della coscienza"18:30 - Frattali, ologrammi e il tutto nel frammentoTi sei mai chiesto se ci sia qualcosa di irriducibilmente umano che nessuna tecnologia potrà mai replicare?

In this episode of the Property Profits Podcast, Dave Dubeau sits down with Evan Curtis, COO of Vanemore, a Los Angeles-based multifamily investment firm that strategically avoided the worst of the recent multifamily downturn. Evan shares how his team read the market signals in 2021–2022, made disciplined decisions, and is now in a strong position to acquire more properties while others are in retreat. Evan explains their “middle-market” buy box, how they add value to already high-performing properties, and the tech tools they're using to boost NOI without major renovations. He also opens up about the current capital raising climate, the importance of educating both new and experienced investors, and why now might be the right time to consider multifamily real estate—even if it doesn't feel like it. What You'll Learn: How Vanemore successfully positioned itself ahead of the multifamily correction What defines a "middle-market" value-add multifamily asset How AI and automation tools are reducing costs and increasing efficiency Real examples of increasing unit count and revenue without buying more land Smart investor education tactics in a hesitant market - Get Interviewed on the Show! - ================================== Are you a real estate investor with some 'tales from the trenches' you'd like to share with our audience?

What if your biggest advantage wasn't a deal—but your mindset? In this episode, I sit down with Laurent Soulé to explore how a deep commitment to learning can reshape the way we invest, grow, and lead. We go beyond real estate and business buying to talk about reading smarter, changing mental filters, and developing the kind of clarity that leads to better decisions. Laurent shares the books, podcasts, and mental models that helped him shift from operating to thinking like an owner. We break down why sharpening your lens matters more than chasing shortcuts, how speed reading and strategic learning impact execution, and why removing yourself from daily operations is the first step toward a real exit plan. Laurent explains how education compounds, why 10x thinking often beats 2x effort, and why buying back your time is more than just a business tactic—it's a life skill. Tune in to learn how personal growth, deep reading, and intentional mindset shifts can shape your success far beyond the next business deal. — Tired of spreadsheets and admin headaches in your rental business?

Vor fi vreo 23 de artiști străini și români ce vor surprinde publicul cu un program eminamente eclectic. Între 12 și 15 iunie, Green Hours, cel mai vechi club de jazz din România postdecembristă, alături de partenerii săi culturali tradiționali, prezintă 9 sesiuni sonore excepționale, în aer liber, la km 0 al mișcării underground din București, pe Calea Victoriei 120. „Noi căutăm să aducem atît artiști consacrați – și sînt mai mulți artiști superconsacrați – cît și artiști tineri, emergenți, cărora le întrevedem traiectorii serioase. Și în sensul acesta cred că avem mînă bună.”, zicea despre festival, cu ceva timp în urmă, Voicu Rădescu, fondator Green Hours. Vorbim despre Green Hours Jazz Fest 2025 cu Rozana Mihalache, director & coordonator artistic la Green Hours.
Un jurnalist stabilit la Istanbul, Ibrahim, află întîmplător de moartea prietenului său din copilărie, Hussein, și decide să se întoarcă în locurile natale, la Mardin, ca să afle ce s-a întîmplat. Așa începe romanul „Neliniște” de Zülfü Livaneli, tradus din turcă de Maria Miu pentru Editura Humanitas Fiction. Eroina romanului, Meleknaz, este o tînără refugiată yazidi, o supraviețuitoare a violenței sexuale, care a reușit să scape din mîinile militanților ISIS și s-a refugiat la Mardin, orașul turcesc de la granița cu Siria. De ea se îndrăgostește musulmanul Hussein. În jurul poveștii lor de dragoste, tragice, se țese de fapt o poveste mult mai cuprinzătoare: despre atrocitățile comise de ISIS împotriva comunității yazidi, despre traumele femeilor care au fost sclavele militanților ISIS, precum și despre Orientul Mijlociu, acest spațiu atît de complex și complicat, plin de durere și tensiuni dar și de frumusețe și fascinație. Am vorbit cu istoricul Fatma Yilmaz despre romanul lui Livaneli, despre religia comunității yazidi - o combinație de elemente din mai multe religii, unele preislamice, zoroastriene -, despre soarta acestor oameni azi, precum și despre personalitatea muzicianului și scriitorului Zülfü Livaneli.Fatma Yilmaz: „Îmi amintesc postările și articolele lui Livaneli în presa turcă, în anii cînd genocidul avea loc sub ochii noștri. Și-mi aduc aminte că revenea cu articole aproape săptămînale, scria obsesiv despre ceea ce se întîmpla în munții Sinjarului, pentru că, de fapt, genocidul acolo a avut loc, o zonă în Irakul de Nord, actualul Kurdistan. Și, pe urmă, probabil, și-a extras motivația scrierii romanului și a folosit povestea de dragoste pentru a ne descrie mai multe realități ale zonei respective. (...) Romanul cred că aduce o întrebare esențială: cît de bine înțelegem noi, cei din afară, cît de corect putem percepe vastitatea suferinței, după ce un om trece prin atrocități? Genocidul yazidi, atrocitatea aceasta a fost îndreptată mai mult către femeile comunității yazidi. Cum strîrpești o comunitate? Omorîndu-i femeile și copiii. Întrebarea centrală este cît de mult putem să înțelegem din această suferință și dacă o înțelegem cu adevărat.”Noi știm puține aici despre acest autor și muzician turc. Cine este Zülfü Livaneli?Fatma Yilmaz: „Livaneli este reprezentantul unei generații, al unui anumit fel de a fi în Turcia. E generația părinților mei, care trăiau cu foarte puțin bani în buzunare, cu foarte puțină hrană, în schimb cîntau la chitară pe malurile Bosforului și își dădeau ultimii bani pe cafea sau raki. O generație care era total îndreptată cu fața către Vest, asumându-și valorile occidentale, cerînd o despărțire de tot ceea ce avusese loc în trecut, mai exact de ce a însemnat societatea otomană. Livaneli este, în primul rând, un erou care a stat în fața puterii neclintit, fără să facă în niciun fel rabat de la valorile în care crede. A fost nu numai o dată întemnițat. Pentru el, organizațiile internaționale au făcut de atîtea ori apeluri către Turcia să îl elibereze și au și reușit. Vine dintr-o familie de intelectuali, tatălui a fost procuror, dar vine dintr-o familie care niciodată nu a uitat de unde a plecat. El a trăit dintotdeauna în Istanbul și Ankara, dar niciodată nu a uitat Anatolia, locul acela unde, spune el în prelegerile lui publice, oamenii încă merg desculți prin praful de pe străzile care n-au văzut niciodată urmă de asfalt sau urme ale civilizației. Este singura personalitate publică care a reușit să adune într-un loc, într-o piață publică din Ankara, peste două milioane de oameni care s-au solidarizat cu cauza minorității kurde.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta întregul interviu!O emisiune de Adela Greceanu Un produs Radio România Cultural

7 PASSI PER ESPUGNARE GERICOPer ognuno di noi c'è un proposito, una promessa che Dio ha fatto alla nostra vita e che Egli porterà a termine.Noi, però, talmente appesantiti dalla vita e dalle nostre cose, ci facciamo allontanare dal nostro proposito.Dio ci dà e ci ricorda la nostra capacità di risolvere le cose e vincere la battaglia ma, noi, come il popolo di Israele neghiamo la possibilità di farcela.Numeri 13La fede si contrappone al dubbio, è quella caratteristica che porta le persone nel Regno di Dio, perché ci fa avere certezza anche di cose che non si vedono.La nostra fede deve crescere e nella nostra vita ci saranno tante conquiste ma che necessariamente devono passare attraverso l'obbedienza.Past Catherine Labate08-06-2025
Tra Calcio e Tennis Mentre la Nazionale di pallonara passa da una brutta figura all'altra, alimentando addirittura l'inaccettabile spauracchio della terza esclusione consecutiva dai prossimi Mondiali di Calcio, nel Paese – a livello di passione sportiva - sono in corso cambiamenti impensabili anche soltanto una decina d'anni fa. Noi stessi - che pure siamo appassionati tifosi di una squadra di Serie A - dobbiamo, comunque, confessare che non seguiamo una partita della Nazionale almeno dai tempi degli Europei di Londra, mentre, per nulla al mondo – o quasi, non esageriamo… - rinunceremmo oggi ad una finale di Wimbledon o del Roland Garros. Al momento – che, naturalmente, speriamo sia del tutto passeggero - la nostra gloriosissima Nazionale azzurra, oltre a perdere partite e credibilità, sembra, dunque, avere smarrito anche la capacità di emozionare e di egemonizzare l'interesse del pubblico sportivo, il quale, non a caso, sta cominciando ad orientare le proprie attenzioni verso altri tipi di sport. Su tutti, il Tennis, che, mai come in questo periodo, ha offerto ai giovanissimi delle nuove figure di riferimento nelle quali potersi identificare. Ed a questo proposito, anche i numeri parlano piuttosto chiaro, visto che in Italia, come rilevato da un'indagine di Social Data, nell'ultimo trimestre dello scorso anno, con 34.000 “mention” e 5,6 milioni di interazioni, Sinner si è imposto come il personaggio che maggiormente ha saputo polarizzare – anche in campo digitale - l'ammirazione e l'orgoglio del pubblico. Stiamo, pertanto, parlando di un boom che riflette la crescita di un gioco che, proprio grazie ai successi dello stesso Sinner - ma anche a quelli di altri assoluti protagonisti come Jasmine Paolini, Lorenzo Musetti o Sara Errani - sta ritagliandosi uno spazio sempre più ampio nei gradimenti degli Italiani. Argomenti tradizionalmente divisivi e coinvolgenti come un “fuori gioco” od un rigore non dato, cominciano, infatti, ad essere soppiantati, nei nostri discorsi, da altri tecnicismi quali il “doppio fallo” o il “tie break”, come mai era accaduto prima... Purtroppo, se proviamo ad individuare un calciatore italiano che sappia, oggi, entusiasmare le tifoserie come, in passato, seppero fare i vari Rivera, Mazzola, Riva, Baggio, Totti o Del Piero, non lo troveremo neanche a cercarlo col lanternino...Tuttavia, per quanto riguarda il presunto sorpasso del tennis sul calcio, non possiamo neppure escludere di trovarci, per ora, in presenza di un fenomeno che potrebbe anche essere transitorio, in quanto magari ancora troppo legato agli esaltanti risultati ottenuti sul campo da una straordinaria generazione di giocatori. Campioni che paiono ridestare la passione incontenibile che, mezzo secolo fa, aveva accompagnato i trionfi della mitica “Valanga Azzurra” di Gustav Thoeni and company, quando cioè tutta l'Italia si mise, improvvisamente, a sciare, dando così impulso ad un movimento turistico e ad una crescita commerciale che, da allora – pandemia a parte – non hanno, in effetti, mai conosciuto battute d'arresto. Due esperienze sportive che, tra l'altro, a distanza di circa cinquant'anni l'una dall'altra, si fondano – guarda caso - entrambe sulla leadership di due equilibrati e garbati fuoriclasse altoatesini, che ci hanno insegnato ed insegnano tuttora cosa significhi vincere o perdere con assoluto fair play. E che, oggi, sia proprio lo “stile Sinner” a rappresentare lo sport italiano nel mondo non può che giovare all'immagine del nostro Paese. "Il Corsivo" a cura di Daniele Biacchessi non è un editoriale, ma un approfondimento sui fatti di maggiore interesse che i quotidiani spesso non raccontano. Un servizio in punta di penna che analizza con un occhio esperto quell'angolo nascosto delle notizie di politica, economia e cronaca. ___________________________________________________ Ascolta altre produzioni di Giornale Radio sul sito: https://www.giornaleradio.fm oppure scarica la nostra App gratuita: iOS - App Store - https://apple.co/2uW01yA Android - Google Play - http://bit.ly/2vCjiW3 Resta connesso e segui i canali social di Giornale Radio: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/giornaleradio.fm/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giornale_radio_fm/?hl=it

Inspired by Tom Peters, Mike reminds us: excellence isn't about NOI, occupancy, or rent growth—it's about how you show up.It's in:A hallway conversation without distractionYour calm during a crisisThe way you treat a vendor, resident, or investor going through something realYour presence when a teammate needs you mostMicro-moments are where culture is built. And real leadership lives in those moments.Stop chasing excellence in metrics alone.

What if your NOI issues aren't about process—but about perspective?In this episode of the Multifamily Collective, Mike Brewer reframes one of the most overlooked truths in property management: your systems are only as strong as the humans running them. We obsess over tech stacks, efficiency metrics, and centralization schemes—but we rarely pause to ask: How are these tools impacting our people?Mike makes the case for a radical mindset shift—from business-first to human-first. Not soft. Not sentimental. But structurally empathetic. He calls for intentional design around the team member experience—because when your employees are seen, heard, and supported, performance soars.Think of your organization as a hub and spoke.Instead of pushing out stress from the center, start pulling insights in from the edges.Design with empathy. Deploy with clarity.And watch both your team—and your outcomes—transform.If this resonates, Like, Subscribe, and share it with someone building property performance from the inside out.

What if you could buy a business with zero capital and still win big? In this episode, I sit down with Laurent Soulé to explore the mindset shift from real estate to business ownership. We unpack why buying a business doesn't require millions, how to build equity without cash, and the underrated power of confidence and creativity in deal-making. Laurent shares how the same skills used in real estate, like due diligence, structure, and relationship-building, can be transferred to acquire and scale small businesses. We talk about the difference between owning and operating, why working on the business matters more than working in it, and how AI, automation, and workflow systems can help de-risk even the most intimidating businesses. Laurent explains how to start small, reduce risk, and offer real value without needing to be the expert in the industry. Tune in to learn why value creation, not capital, is your biggest lever in business acquisition, and how to get started by simply asking: where can I help? — Tired of spreadsheets and admin headaches in your rental business?

The Margin of Error Has Vanished: What CRE Investors Should Be Watching Now Commentary on a conversation with John Chang, Senior Vice President and National Director, Research and Advisory Services, Marcus & Millichap The New CRE Investment Mandate: Survive First, Then Thrive “The margin of error has narrowed to virtually zero.” This was John Chang's stark assessment of today's commercial real estate environment – an era marked by fragile capital markets, rising Treasury yields, policy instability, and speculative hangovers from a decade of cheap money. According to Chang, the headline playbook hasn't changed: keep leverage low, maintain reserves, underwrite for downside. But the stakes have changed. What used to be prudent is now required. Those who forget that, particularly those lulled by the long post-GFC bull run, risk extinction. Cap Rates, Treasury Yields, and the Compressed Spread A central theme of our conversation is the vanishing spread between borrowing costs and asset yields. Cap rates have risen 100–200 bps depending on asset class and geography, but Treasury rates have risen more. That's compressed spreads, rendering most acquisitions reliant on a value-creation story or an eventual rate reversal. Investors are still transacting, says Chang, but only if they believe they can bridge the spread gap through operational improvements i.e. leasing, renovation, management upgrades. Passive cap-rate arbitrage is no longer viable. “The potential for something to go wrong is high,” Chang warns, especially in a policy environment that remains erratic. The Treasury Market's Imminent Supply Shock Chang outlines why he expects upward pressure on Treasury yields for the balance of the year – contrary to the market's general expectations of rate cuts. Key reasons: Federal Deficits: With a delayed budget, Treasury issuance has been running below historical norms. That's about to reverse, with $1–1.5 trillion in supply expected by October. Shrinking Buyer Base: The Fed is reducing its balance sheet. Foreign holders, especially China and Japan, are net sellers. Even traditional allies are showing less appetite, driven partly by frictions over U.S. trade policy. Trade Tensions: Tariffs of up to 145% on imports from China, EU saber-rattling, and a broad retreat from globalization are alienating the very buyers of U.S. debt. “People don't want to do us any favors right now,” Chang says. “That uncertainty alone elevates risk premiums.” Normalcy Bias and the Myth of the Perpetual Up Cycle Chang pulls no punches on the market psychology underpinning risky underwriting in recent years. He describes a bifurcated investor landscape: Those who entered post-GFC and think 2–3% interest rates and infinite rent growth are normal. Veterans of the 1990s S&L crisis, the dot-com bust, or the GFC, who know better. What's striking is the lack of long-term data. Even Marcus & Millichap, he notes, only has robust CRE data going back to 2000. Without context, many have mistaken the tailwind-fueled 2010s as a standard baseline. “We're back to old-world real estate,” Chang says. “Where you have to actually understand the property, the tenant mix, the microeconomics of location. The era of pure financial engineering is over.” Lessons from the Pandemic and GFC: Underwrite for Downside, Not for Hype Chang recounts closing on an investment in April 2020 at the very onset of pandemic uncertainty. “What if we rent at breakeven?” he asked. If the answer was yes, he proceeded. That conservative approach worked then and still applies today. The biggest blow-ups, he says, came from sponsors who: Modeled double-digit rent growth. Over-leveraged. Used floating-rate debt without hedges. Ignored capex and reserves. By contrast, Chang praises sponsors who locked in fixed debt, kept leverage under 65%, and stayed humble. “They're embarrassed to be earning 7% IRRs,” he jokes, “but in this climate, that's a win.” Washout in the Syndication Space: Good Riddance? Perhaps most damning is Chang's commentary on the wave of underqualified syndicators who entered during the boom years. “Thousands came in with no operating experience,” he says, pointing to the proliferation of coaching programs offering checklists instead of expertise. These new entrants mimicked industry language – AUM figures, fund manager titles – but often had no institutional track record or risk management skills. Many of them, Chang believes, are now out or on their way out. And while some may return with hard-earned wisdom, he expects the flow of “tourists” into the syndication world to dry up for the foreseeable future. Tailwinds Still Exist: But Only for the Well-Prepared Despite the short-term risks, Chang sees multiple long-term tailwinds: Demographics: Millennials are delaying homeownership, renting into their 40s and fueling demand for multifamily. Inflation Resistance: Assets like multifamily, self-storage, and even select retail have pricing power in inflationary environments. Constrained Supply: Rising costs (e.g., lumber, steel tariffs) are slowing new construction, which will support existing asset values over time. He also flags tax policy as a positive surprise: The “BBB” tax bill, now working its way through the House, offers accelerated depreciation and expansion of Opportunity Zones particularly in rural areas. This could buoy returns in an otherwise challenging environment. On the Aging of America: A Selective Case for Healthcare-Adjacent Assets Chang views medical office and senior housing through a bifurcated lens: Medical office: Attractive if tenants are stable, young, or anchored by heavy equipment. Long leases. Minimal turnover. Durable income. Assisted living: Demographic tailwinds are real, but operators matter more than ever. The Achilles heel? Labor. “About 30% of healthcare workers in the U.S. are foreign-born,” he warns. “And immigration policy, especially under restrictive regimes, will constrain the labor supply.” No staff, no NOI. Final Signals: What He's Watching Closely If you want to forecast CRE performance, Chang suggests watching: University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment: A leading indicator of retail sales and housing trends. Currently falling. Inflation-adjusted Retail Sales: Shows how real consumption is holding up. Trade Policy & Supreme Court Rulings: The potential invalidation of Trump-era tariffs could reset inflation and Treasury outlooks but introduces a new kind of uncertainty. “We're not facing one black swan,” he concludes. “We're facing a whole flock. Pick your bird.” Bottom Line This is not a time for heroic assumptions. It's a time for competence, humility, and discipline. If you must deploy capital, do so with sponsors who have been through a major downturn GFC style, and focus on those who didn't make capital calls, who still generate yield, and who underwrite to reality, not to hope. The next 2–3 years may be rocky. But the long term still belongs to those who survive the short term. *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.

Viitorul Guvern trebuie să reducă cheltuielile statului, spune la RFI deputatul USR Claudiu Năsui. Fostul ministru al Economiei propune mai multe măsuri pentru diminuarea deficitului bugetar. Claudiu Năsui, despre reducerea deficitului: ”Noi acum suntem ca într-o mașină în care pedala este pe accelerat la maxim și tot pompăm bani în economie pe care nu-i avem, îi împrumutăm. În momentul în care nu mai pompezi bani, se termină petrecerea, începe mahmureala”.Despre o eventuală majorare de taxe și impozite: ”Ideea că vor fi taxe pe lux, că o să taxăm numai bogații nu o să aducă decât o picătură la scara bugetului. Dacă vrei într-adevăr să-ți rezolvi problema bugetară prin creșteri de taxe, ceea ce eu cred că e o greșeală colosală pentru România, atunci o să acționeze pe taxele pe consum, pe TVA și pe taxele pe muncă, adică o să sărăcească fix pe cei mai săraci”.Claudiu Năsui mai vorbește în interviul acordat RFI despre varianta unui premier tehnocrat și despre soarta PNRR.

In this episode of The Investor Impact: Power Talks, Vinney Chopra shares a powerful truth: Senior living isn't just profitable—it's purposeful. After stepping away from multifamily, Vinney saw his results skyrocket with boutique residential assisted living homes that deliver 2–3x higher NOI. And the best part? He's changing lives in the process. Vinney breaks down how 10-bedroom, single-family homes designed for senior care are meeting skyrocketing demand—and producing stable, inflation-resistant income for investors. With occupancy rates nearing 90%, premium rates of $5,000+ per resident, and monthly net income of $10K–$15K per home, this sector is booming.

The Pulse of the Debt Markets — with Orest Mandzy, CRE Direct Capital market confidence is cautiously returning, but undercurrents of risk remain. In my wide-ranging conversation with Orest Mandzy, Managing Editor of Commercial Real Estate Direct, we discuss what recent CMBS issuance tells us about liquidity, why delinquency headlines may be misleading, and how sponsors can position themselves amid policy shocks and structural market shifts. Liquidity Is Back — But Driven by Giants CMBS issuance jumped 110% in Q1 2025, totaling nearly $37 billion. While that headline suggests a resurgence of confidence, Orest clarifies that most of that growth comes from SASB (Single Asset, Single Borrower) deals – large trophy assets being financed and securitized by institutional players. These are not indicative of broad-based confidence in middle-market real estate. To gauge true liquidity, he says, focus on conduit deals – pools of smaller $10M–$25M loans originated by banks and institutional lenders and repackaged into +/- $1B bond offerings. Robust conduit activity reflects a healthier market for everyday sponsors. “If you've got solid conduit issuance,” says Orest, “that tells you there's liquidity in the market – not just for trophy deals.” Rising Delinquencies: Real or a Red Herring? Recent headlines warned that CMBS delinquency rates exceeded 7%, the highest since 2021. But Orest has looked deeper into the data and sees it is far from being systemic. A handful of large, troubled multifamily loans, such as the $1.5B Park Merced in San Francisco and a floating-rate New York portfolio, together make up nearly 60% of those delinquencies. The common thread? These loans were made pre-COVID or in 2021 with floating-rate debt and now can't refinance in today's rate environment. But they're outliers, not bellwethers. Fannie and Freddie multifamily delinquencies remain under 1%, and even in CMBS, the average LTVs have been conservative. “Multifamily looks worse than it is. Strip out the outliers and the market's still performing.” CLOs, Banks, and the Competitive Landscape CMBS is just one lane in the broader lending freeway. Orest distinguishes it from CLOs, which are floating-rate, short-term loans used by debt funds for leverage, and from agencies like Fannie and Freddie, which underwrite more conservatively. In 2024: Agencies originated ~$60B each CMBS did ~$40B CLOs only ~$8B – down sharply from peak years Debt funds relying on CLOs are now facing stiff competition from banks, which are back in the market after a cautious 2023. With banks accounting for 40% of CRE loan volume annually, this shift matters. For sponsors, it means a broader set of options but also a new underwriting reality. Orest notes that while leverage is available, it's on tighter terms: LTVs in the low 60s and debt service coverage ratios near 2.0x are now standard for institutional-quality debt. The Tariff Shock and Bond Market Jitters One of the most important takeaways: macro events like tariffs are now exerting real-time pressure on the capital stack. In early April, CMBS bond spreads spiked from 80bps to 108bps over Treasuries as the market braced for a new round of tariffs. That spread spike pushed borrowing costs up and froze CMBS issuance for nearly 10 days – a signal of how fragile the system remains to policy volatility. Although bond spreads have since tightened, Orest warns that risk repricing is now a function of policy headlines, not just economic fundamentals. “Uncertainty is risk. And when investors sense more of it, they demand more yield. That makes loans more expensive and deal volume drops.” Positive Leverage or No Leverage: Sponsor Guidance Asked what CRE sponsors and investors should be doing in the next 3–12 months, Orest's answer is clear: Seek positive leverage from Day One – don't rely on NOI lifts growth to bail you out. Consider no leverage at all if you're sitting on cash and don't want to risk default. Underwrite conservatively and turn over every rock. The deal you don't do may save you. “If you buy with positive leverage, great. If not, maybe don't borrow at all.” Special Servicing > Delinquencies For investors and borrowers watching for cracks in the market, Orest recommends a lesser-known but more reliable signal: the special servicing rate in CMBS. Loans enter special servicing before they go delinquent, usually triggered by pending lease expirations, tenant loss, or anticipated refinance trouble. This metric has been rising and, unlike delinquencies, tends to stay elevated longer. Sponsors should watch this closely. Local Policy Risk: The Property Tax Squeeze Orest flags an emerging risk with local governments under fiscal stress. Cities like San Francisco, where office values have cratered, still rely on CRE for a large share of tax revenue. If values fall but municipalities resist cutting spending, expect tax rates to rise, eroding asset value further. “Where do cities go when they need money? To the deep pockets. And that's commercial real estate.” Industrial and Insurance: Still in the Crosshairs While multifamily has absorbed most of the press, Orest highlights risk building in other sectors: Industrial may face headwinds from tariffs disrupting trade flows and warehouse demand. Insurance costs, especially in hurricane-prone areas, continue to rise, sometimes outpacing rent growth. In one example, he cited an apartment property in Tampa where gross revenue rose 50% in five years, but expenses outpaced it, limiting refinance options. Geopolitics, De-Dollarization, and Exorbitant Privilege One of my concerns is about broader macro risks – de-dollarization, loss of U.S. financial credibility, and capital flight from Treasuries. Orest acknowledged these as tail risks but noted they're not front of mind for most market participants… yet. Still, if foreign buyers ever pull back on U.S. Treasuries, that could cause a spike in long-term rates, forcing CRE valuations down and capital costs up. It's not imminent, but it's worth tracking. “If China and Japan stop buying Treasuries, we've got a real problem. All bets are off.” Final Thought The key insight from this episode: the market is functioning but only just. Liquidity is back, but it's conditional. Optimism exists, but it's fragile. And sponsors must walk a tightrope between opportunity and overextension. Orest's advice? Borrow smart. Underwrite for today's risks – not yesterday's assumptions. And remember: your best defense in uncertain times is positive leverage and deep diligence. *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.

What if building real estate was less about bricks and more about relationships? In this episode, I sit down with Benoit Carrier, Director General at Nordev, to explore the true complexity behind real estate development. What looks like a simple process—buy land, build, rent—is actually a maze of permits, partnerships, and problem-solving. From unexpected delays caused by frogs to managing dozens of experts who don't speak the same technical language, Benoit shares what it really takes to bring a building to life. We talk about why the best developers aren't just builders—they're conductors, uniting lawyers, engineers, biologists, and marketers to play the same tune. And how success in this field comes down to one core principle: keep pushing, stay curious, and build human connections that last longer than concrete.
