In Part 2 of this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie talks with Nick F. (Nick Fergis), co-founder and CEO of Property.com, a site that connects homeowners with top-rated contractors. They go over the free and paid membership tiers for contractors, tools like Max Closer and Max Qualifier, and how Property.com helps build trust and drive quality leads. Nick shares why he started the platform, how it supports real estate agents too, and why only the best contractors are allowed in, no room for poor service or shady lead generation. Nick Fergis talks about why Property.com only lists top-rated, vetted contractors to help homeowners avoid poor service. He explains their free and paid plans, where tools like Max Closer and Max Qualifier help contractors get leads and show their work. Nick also shares how real estate agents will soon use the platform to share trusted pros with new homeowners. Gary talks about how many lead services today feel random and low-quality. They agree that trust, clear info, and proven work matter most when choosing the right people for the job. Nick explains that Property.com helps homeowners find top local pros by listing only trusted and vetted contractors. He says the free plan gives you a site and certificate, but paid plans add tools like Max Closer to help close jobs and Max Qualifier to find better leads. Gary says the site feels like a real estate page, but for contractors, all in one spot. They both agree that many lead services are spammy, send bad leads, or don't know the trades. Property.com is built to fix that with tools and trust that help both sides. Expect to Learn: Why Property.com only lists top-rated, vetted contractors. How free and paid plans help pros get leads and build trust. What tools like Max Closer and Max Qualifier do for you. Why real estate agents will share their Rolodex with new owners. How this platform beat random lead services and bad results.

E-bikes have been a topic of conversation recently as some towns around Buffalo, with Clarence being the latest, are trying to make changes to their local laws when it comes to the use of e-bikes on town trails. Are you in favor of this, do we need more stringent regulations when it comes to e-bikes? And to close things out, while the deadline for some parishes to make their payment toward the abuse settlement has been pushed back, tomorrow is July 15th, the original deadline for parishes to pay up. What do you hope your parish does?

This lecture, the third in a series on Secured Transactions, focuses on the final stage of the process: default, remedies, and enforcement under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.). It explains that while the U.C.C. allows parties to define default, common examples include failing to make payments or maintain collateral. Upon default, secured parties have several options, including repossession (often without judicial process if peaceable), selling the collateral in a commercially reasonable manner to potentially seek a deficiency judgment, or retaining it through strict foreclosure, though this is limited for consumer goods. The lecture emphasizes that secured parties must adhere to notice requirements and the debtor retains redemption rights until the collateral is disposed of, with courts playing a role in ensuring compliance and balancing creditor and debtor rights."Default" is largely defined by the security agreement between the parties, commonly including failure to make timely payments or breaches of covenants like maintaining collateral or unauthorized transfer.The most significant self-help remedy is repossession of the collateral without judicial process, provided it can be done without breaching the peace."Without breach of the peace" means repossession must not involve physical force, threats, breaking and entering, or actions likely to provoke violence.Replevin is a judicial process to recover collateral, used when self-help is too risky or likely to cause conflict, offering a court-backed recovery method.The two main options are selling or disposing of the collateral (public or private sale) or retaining it in full or partial satisfaction of the debt (strict foreclosure).The central requirement is conducting the sale or disposition in a commercially reasonable manner, considering factors like method, manner, time, place, and terms.Sale proceeds are applied to expenses, then the debt, then junior interests. Surplus goes to the debtor; deficiency allows a deficiency judgment.Strict foreclosure is retaining collateral for the debt. A key requirement is sending an authenticated proposal to the debtor and others for their potential objection.Strict foreclosure is prohibited in consumer-goods transactions if the debtor paid 60% or more of the cash price.The debtor (or secondary obligor) can redeem collateral by paying the full debt plus expenses before disposition or strict foreclosure is completed.

In the latest episode of *Ooohtheyfunny*, the crew dives deep into two heavy-hitting topics: the potential onset of World War 3 and the timeless debate between strict and relaxed parenting styles. Kicking things off with Ukraine's bold offensive against Russia, the hosts question whether global war is a real threat or just media-fueled hysteria. They explore the ripple effects such a conflict could have on everyday American life—from drafts and cyberattacks to the emotional toll of sending daughters to the front lines—and ask if families today are truly prepared for that level of sacrifice. Shifting gears, the conversation heats up around parenting philosophies: Do strict rules raise disciplined kids or just better liars? Does relaxed parenting build confidence or breed entitlement? The hosts reflect on how their upbringings shape their current approaches and whether consistency, love, and communication matter more than the parenting label itself. It's a thought-provoking episode packed with real talk, different perspectives, and the kind of humor and honesty fans have come to expect.
How Positive Leadership Transforms Workplace Culture and Elevates Customer Experience Shep interviews Ryan Minton, Best-Selling Author and Keynote Speaker. He talks about his new book, Uplifted and shares insights from his experience in hospitality, including the impact of employee engagement, appreciation, and empowerment in creating uplifting work environments and better customer experiences. This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more: What practical benefits come from creating an uplifting workplace culture? How does a hospitality mindset improve customer service across different industries? What impact does leadership have on employee morale and customer experience? How does positive leadership help reduce staff turnover in customer-facing roles? In what ways does an employee's mood affect customer interactions? Top Takeaways: The hospitality mentality is not just for hotels and restaurants. It is valuable in every industry because it sets the bar for the customer experience standard. It teaches every employee to always show care, gratitude, and kindness no matter what industry they work in. A heartfelt "thanks for coming in today" can make a real difference in someone's mood and attitude. It is a simple yet powerful statement that leaders can say to make their employees know that they matter. When employees feel appreciated, they're more likely to enjoy coming to work and give their best. It creates a workplace where people want to come, stay, and grow. Every employee becomes the face of your brand the moment they interact with your customers. When they are not happy at their jobs, customers feel it. High turnover and unhappiness can hurt customer satisfaction, so making sure that employees are engaged, equipped, and fulfilled helps create positive customer experiences. Strict policies can sometimes get in the way of the human aspect of customer service. When employees are trusted to handle situations as they see fit, they feel empowered to do their jobs. Employees need to grow through training and be equipped with the right tools so that they can use policies as guidelines while exercising common sense to meet each customer's unique needs. Happy employees lead to happy customers, and happy customers come back. Invest in people through appreciation, empowerment, and uplifting leadership. Loyalty programs and perks can encourage repeat business, but truly memorable companies don't rely on them alone. Being helpful, friendly, and uplifting is the best loyalty program you can offer. When people feel good about you, they'll keep coming back, with or without loyalty programs. Plus, Ryan shares the "balloon effect" and how it can elevate customer and employee experiences. Tune in! Quote: "Good old-fashioned customer service is just good old-fashioned hospitality. So many brands look to the hotel industry because it has become the standard for customer service." About: Ryan Minton is a Best-Selling Author and Keynote Speaker with over 20 years of experience leading world-class hospitality brands. He is the author of Thanks for Coming in Today: Creating a Culture Where Employees Thrive & Customer Service is Alive. His upcoming book Uplifted! The Remarkable Power of Positive Leadership on Frontline Teams launches June 10th.

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., explore the limitations of renting home office space to yourself as a sole proprietor and explain superior alternatives through S and C corporations that unlock better deductions and reimbursement opportunities. The attorneys provide detailed guidance on properly paying children through family businesses to maximize tax benefits while avoiding employment taxes, and discuss the complexities of transferring real estate to children through gift strategies. They dive deep into syndication investments, explaining passive income treatment, cost segregation benefits, and how real estate professional status can transform passive losses into active deductions. Other key topics include the master lease strategy for short-term rental owners seeking to optimize tax benefits, the mechanics and restrictions of 1031 exchanges, medical expense reimbursements through C corporations (including controversial deductions for specialty foods and safety equipment), and the proper setup timeline for nonprofit organizations. Tune in for expert insights on these advanced tax strategies and more! Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "Can I rent my home office to myself as a sole proprietor?" - No, use home office deduction instead. "I know an owner of a small business can pay their kids to work for their company. I've heard several different facts about how exactly to do that, which contradict one another. Can you please explain the proper steps?" - Pay kids W-2 from sole prop, avoid taxes. "We were advised to transfer real estate to our children up to a certain limit using the parent-child transfer provision form 709. Can you please discuss the advantages and disadvantages? Any limitations on the amount of equity transfer and any IRS requirements, etc.?" - Not recommended, complex bookkeeping, lose stepped-up basis. "I want to join a syndication as a limited partner. What tax implications do I face at the time of distribution of profits and how does it change if they do a cost segregation and bonus depreciation while I'm still part of this syndication? An additional fact is that this person has their own long-term rental." - Passive income, and cost segregation create offsetting losses. "Are you entitled to cost segregation benefits if you invest in a syndication with your IRA/401k funds?" - Yes allocated, but no tax benefit in retirement. "Please explain the C Corporation Master Lease strategy for short-term rental owners. I own a short-term rental but was unable to capitalize on the short-term rental loophole because I had used professional property management. Does this strategy provide any advantage to somebody in my situation or allow me to take advantage of the loophole in a different way? How would the tax breakdown work in this case if I created a management C corporation?" - C corp manages property, shifts income, enables reimbursements. "What is the downside of using a 1031 exchange to avoid taxes in a profit transaction? Are there any benefits?" - Strict deadlines, higher debt required, but defers taxes. "What are the medical expenses aside from doctor visits and out-of-pocket medications allowed as reimbursable from the C corp? A doctor has recommended including antioxidant foods in our diet to improve my spouse's diet due to a specific condition. Is it reimbursable if we buy foods that are not really on our regular grocery list? Only because our doctor suggested it. Additionally, the other day, my spouse slipped on one of the floor mats, so I had to buy rug grippers. Is this also reimbursable?" - Doctor's note rule applies, antioxidants questionable, grippers no. "I would like to know if I can start a business as a nonprofit before I begin doing the work. Or do I have to already be up and running?" - Set up a nonprofit entity first for protection.
