Most CRE teams are not losing deals because of capital, talent, or market access.   They are losing because they move too slowly because initial underwriting and deal marketing are still painfully manual across much of the industry.   Spreadsheets. Templates. Design tools. Email chains. Outsourced vendors.   All stitched together by habit.   That friction costs time, and time costs deals.   In my latest AI/CRE Demo Day show Anton Zajac, CEO of IntellCRE, demonstrates (onscreen) what happens when those bottlenecks disappear.   What stood out immediately: BOVs and OMs that once took 20+ hours can be produced in minutes Initial underwriting and marketing stop being separate workflows Small teams gain enterprise-level output capacity Deal marketing becomes proactive, not reactive IntellCRE automates the unglamorous middle of CRE work: data aggregation, comps, market context, financials, and presentation.   The result is not just speed. It's a pure, AI driven competitive advantage.   Some questions the platform answers clearly: What if initial deal screening was no longer the bottleneck? What if marketing output scaled without adding staff? What if BOVs became a prospecting weapon instead of a sunk cost? What changes when responsiveness becomes your edge? If you work in brokerage, acquisitions, or high-volume CRE investing and speed matters to you, this is worth seeing.   Not a concept.   Not a slide deck.   A genuine AI platform specifically designed for CRE pros. Trust me (I'm a doctor) this is worth a look.   ***   At GowerCrowd, we are aggressively researching AI tools you can actually use and that bring real, immediate value to your business.    Subscribe to my newsletter and get access to this transformational intel before anyone else:  https://gowercrowd.com/subscribe Email: adam@gowercrowd.com Call: 213-761-1000

This could be commercial real estate's “buy of the decade,” according to a 35-year investing veteran. This asset class is seeing rock-bottom prices, shrinking supply, and acquisitions at a quarter of replacement cost. Everyone says this asset is dead, so why are expert investors, lenders, and brokers betting on it? Michael Bull, founder & CEO of Bull Realty, Inc., has personally overseen over $8 billion in commercial real estate transactions in his 35 years in the industry. He's seeing sentiment shift toward one forgotten asset class office space investing. Office investments are seeing supply get actively demolished, but lending and buying are returning, and some cities are even seeing more office demand.  The media is saying it's all doom and gloom, but on the ground, Michael is seeing something very different. Want to buy when the fear is still high, but prices are touching bedrock? Michael shares his underwriting playbook for finding valuable office investments, what savvy operators are doing with outdated office vintages (demolish, rebuild, or retrofit?), and the markets with the most opportunity for demand. Plus, the exact type of tenant that is giving those who invest in office space consistent revenue and unmatched peace of mind. Insights from today's episode: Commercial real estate's “buy of the decade” and why investors are jumping back in No new supply coming online? Why office building supply is shrinking, just as demand bounces back  Underwriting “guardrails” experts use to validate a valuable vs. dead office investment  First office investment? Where Michael says beginners should start looking for opportunities   Falling values = falling property taxes? An even bigger lever for cash flow  Retrofit, rehab, or convert?

You walk out of a conference (or finish a webinar) with pages of notes and a head full of ideas… and for about 48 hours, you're fired up. Then Monday hits.A deal blows up. A Realtor needs something “right now.” Underwriting asks for one more thing. Your phone never stops buzzing. And the strategy you promised yourself you'd finally implement (your CRM, referral follow-up, content, process) gets pushed to the side again.In this episode of The 360 Experience Podcast, Loan Atlas founder Tim Braheem steps into the guest seat for a direct, unscripted conversation about the real reason most mortgage professionals stay stuck: planning without execution, and execution without a plan.

If you've been working hard but feeling scattered, reactive, or frustrated by unfinished initiatives, this episode will help you slow down, get clear, and start executing with confidence again.ABOUT TIM BRAHEEMWith more than 25 years of experience as a highly successful mortgage professional, industry leader, educator, and life coach, Tim Braheem is committed to engaging with people on a deep level and helping them uncover the barriers they have placed in the way of having the level of success they deserve in both their business and personal lives.FOLLOW Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/tbraheem/LinkedIn ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/timbraheemTHE LOAN ATLASJOIN ► https://go.theloanatlas.com/membership FOLLOWInstagram ► https://www.instagram.com/theloanatlas/YOUTUBE ► https://www.youtube.com/@LoanAtlas----------

In this episode, Robin Merttens is joined by Andy Yeoman, CEO of Concirrus, to unpack how a key player in marine insurance tech has reinvented itself as a core platform provider for the specialty market, and what that transformation says about where the industry is heading.  Andy shares the thinking behind Concirrus' pivot from ship tracking to full risk lifecycle processing, what it takes to build end-to-end technology in just 18 months, and why underwriters, not just CTOs, are now leading the charge on system change.  In this conversation, Andy shares:  Why marine was just the beginning and why modern platforms must serve multiple lines with depth, not just breadth  What today's insurers really want from core systems: speed, interoperability and business outcomes  How Concirrus became an AI-first company and what that's meant for product delivery, talent and culture  The rise of the tech-fuelled MGA and why they're now the “risk entrepreneurs” to watch  How verticalised platforms are winning over underwriters by solving for class-specific nuance  What the shift from admin-heavy roles to empowered underwriting means for job satisfaction and talent retention  Why managing change is as important as building tech and what Concirrus learned from its own internal AI adoption  What's next for insurance infrastructure as constraints fall away and innovation accelerates If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Robin Merttens on LinkedIn.  Sign up to the InsTech newsletter for a fresh view on the world every Wednesday morning.

What if the next big wave of job loss isn't at the site level... but at the top of your org chart?In this episode of the Multifamily Collective, I explore the quiet storm that's about to rattle corporate America—and yes, even Multifamily. We're talking about AI-driven job displacement in white collar roles: accounting, marketing, HR, even software development.If AI can do it faster, cheaper, and better... what happens to your team?More importantly—what happens to household formation?We've long talked about site-level disruption: centralization, automation, and AI workflows replacing leasing agents and assistants. But the bigger implication lives inside the corporate headquarters—and it's coming fast. As roles vanish, renter bases shrink. And if you're not building that into your underwriting... you're flying blind.This isn't theory. This is happening now.Whether it's a mop-bot at a racetrack gas station or AI eating code in a SaaS company—task-based automation is here. And the domino effect on the labor market could quietly gut your occupancy strategy if you're not paying attention.Learn why it's no longer enough to ask what your renters do—you need to ask how long AI will let them do it.Like what you hear?

Why is underwriting small businesses so much harder than underwriting individuals? In this episode of The Lending Link, host Nathan George sits down with Michael LaSala from Baselayer to unpack one of the most persistent challenges in small business lending: verifying identity when businesses do not fit clean, predictable profiles.They discuss why matching business names, owners, and entities is much more complicated than verifying consumers. Fragmented data, thin files, and unstructured information make things harder for lenders, leading to more risk and manual reviews. Michael explains how lenders can use AI to organize messy data, identify useful behavioral signals, and better distinguish real businesses from fraud.They also talk about how automation speeds up decisions, helps more applicants finish the process, and lets underwriting teams focus on more important tasks. The conversation looks ahead to new trends like Know Your Agent and more applications, and to what lenders should do as AI continues to change small-business onboarding and credit decisions.

Duncan Dale, CEO, Dale Underwriting Partners, said that while the reinsurance market has enjoyed two strong years, underlying claims data reveals worsening trends. Dale spoke with AM Best TV at the Rendez-Vous de Septembre conference, Monte Carlo.

Hans and Brian challenge the conventional wisdom around qualified retirement plans and expose the misaligned incentives baked into the 401(k) system.Most people defend their 401(k)s and IRAs with passion—but they're carrying water for institutions whose goals directly conflict with their own. This episode breaks down the four things financial institutions want from your money, reveals the history of how employers shifted pension risk onto employees, and asks the critical question: whose incentives are you serving?The conventional model says lock your money away for 40 years, fund your own retirement, bear all the market risk, and hope you have enough at 65. The qualified plan gives you a 13-year window of control—you can't touch it penalty-free until 59.5, and RMDs force withdrawals starting at 73.

Cadillac Fairview has been shaping downtown Montreal for decades, but the next chapter is about turning legacy retail land into full neighborhoods. In this episode, Axel Monsaingeon sits down with Jeroen Henrich, Senior Vice President of Development at Cadillac Fairview, to break down the shift from condos to rentals, why underutilized parking fields are now some of the most valuable real estate in Quebec, and how mega-sites like Carrefour Laval get redeveloped without hurting retail performance. They dig into master planning as "3D chess", transit and infrastructure constraints, ESG fundamentals that actually move the needle, and the underwriting discipline required when construction costs and capital markets turn volatile.   Topics & Timestamps ⏱️ 00:01:03 – Cadillac Fairview in Montreal

The Most Overlooked Underwriting Step in Hard Money Lending: Exit Strategy - #312 In this episode of the Private Lenders Podcast, Jason Balin and Chris Haddon break down the most overlooked underwriting step in hard money lending: the borrower's exit strategy. Whether you're a private lender, hard money lender, or active real estate investor, understanding how your borrower plans to pay off your loan is one of the most critical pieces of the underwriting process—and also the one most lenders get wrong. With over 4,000 funded deals, Jason and Chris share real examples from their portfolio, including: ✔️ Why refinance exits fail more often than borrowers admit ✔️ The red flags you should look for before approving a loan ✔️ Why credit repair + "I'll just refinance later" is rarely a viable plan ✔️ How inherited properties and unsophisticated borrowers add hidden risk ✔️ Why mixed-use and commercial deals require longer timelines and lower LTVs ✔️ What addendums and upfront agreements can do to protect your position ✔️ How to avoid loans that get stuck on your books—and become expensive nightmares From borrower psychology to collateral type to real-world case studies (including foreclosures, bankruptcies, and inherited properties gone wrong), this episode pulls back the curtain on how seasoned lenders underwrite exits before writing a term sheet. Whether you're building your private lending business or tightening up your underwriting process, this conversation will help you protect your capital, reduce defaults, and build a cleaner, more profitable loan portfolio. ✅ Please like, subscribe, and share! ✅ Are you a new or experienced private lender or hard money lender?

Jeff Rosenberg brings a multi-generation perspective to open-air, retail shopping centers, a sector most investors once wrote off.   His family built and operated supermarkets and the centers around them starting in the 1940s. Big V Property Group grew out of that platform and today controls a $2.5 billion, 9 million square foot national portfolio of open-air shopping centers anchored by the likes of Target, TJX brands, Ross, HomeGoods, Sierra Trading, and others.   That background matters: Big V understands how retailers actually make money, how store-level performance drives traffic, and why certain locations survive every cycle.   A few insights stood out in our conversation: • Physical retail never died (online shopping, Covid etc) it evolved. Retailers now use stores as omnichannel infrastructure: showroom, warehouse, and last-mile all at once. • Power-center retail is effectively an ecosystem. A Target anchor drives demographic analysis, infrastructure improvements, credit co-tenancy, and consistent foot traffic for the rest of the center. • Supply discipline is doing the heavy lifting. Two decades of minimal development plus 96–97% occupancy make today's retail fundamentally different from overbuilt asset classes. • Lenders are leaning back in. Big V recently rolled eight core assets, about $1.1 billion, into a single fund and closed a $765 million on-balance-sheet bank loan, the largest retail financing in the country in 2025. • Underwriting today requires humility. Big V assumes no cap-rate compression. All value has to come from NOI growth and execution, not financial engineering.   Here are five questions we covered: Why did retail survive when everyone predicted structural decline? How does a Target anchor change a center's economics? What does today's capital stack look like for high-quality retail? How do you underwrite exits when cap-rate compression is off the table? Where are the real risks in a sector that looks "safe" on the surface? If you want a grounded view of where the next leg of the retail cycle is heading and how an operator with a decades-long track record has never lost investor capital, this conversation is worth your time.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

On Sunday, the “Titanium Lady,” Fox News' Maria Bartiromo, lit up one of the worst perpetrators of the sort of treachery her three-part “Underwriting the Enemy” series has relentlessly exposed: J.P.Morgan's CEO Jamie Dimon. While Dimon was given a chance to tout his company's commendable commitment to invest $1.5 trillion in enhancing U.S. security and resiliency, he was also pressed about his practice of raising funds for Chinese military companies. He declared that he was not going to violate American national security policy and would “absolutely walk away from deals with China…assisting with military equipment.”  In fact, Dimon and his ilk know that doing otherwise actually violates President Trump's America First Investment Policy – which, thanks to Rep. John Moolenaar, Congress is poised to make the law of the land. American security and resiliency starts with ending our underwriting of the enemy. This is Frank Gaffney.

Lisa Miller has the tables turned on her in this podcast where she's the guest, in this originally-aired episode of the InsuredMine podcast with CEO and host Raution Jaiswal.  The former Florida Deputy Insurance Commissioner discusses her career and the evolving insurance landscape – both here in Florida and nationally – and how to decode it. The discussion covers litigation reforms, market stability, Citizens Property Insurance depopulation, and other legislative actions in Florida that are restoring consumer confidence and attracting private insurance companies. They also touch on national trends like parametric insurance, the rise of artificial intelligence in underwriting and claims, and the impact of the National Flood Insurance Program shutdown on real estate closings.Show Notes (For full Show Notes, visit https://lisamillerassociates.com/episode-61-the-evolving-insurance-landscape/) Lisa Miller shared her extensive experience in the insurance industry, spanning 35 years, and her work with various stakeholders, including agents, contractors, disaster recovery experts, Realtors®, and insurance company executives.  She recounted her first exposure to catastrophes during 1992's Hurricane Andrew, which shaped her career and commitment to helping policyholders, and her expanding role in disaster recovery today.Miller shared her views and provided insights on:  Litigation Reform & Market Stability: How recent legislative actions in Florida are restoring consumer confidence and attracting private insurance companies back to the state. The Citizens Property Insurance Corporation's Depopulation Strategy: The push to move policies from government-run insurance to private markets for long-term sustainability.  The strategy has reduced policies from over 1.5 million to under 500,000. National Trends: The rise of parametric insurance and its potential to revolutionize the flood insurance space; how states such as Louisiana and California are rethinking risk and resilience; concerns of northeastern states about rising water levels; and the importance of attracting young, innovative professionals to the insurance industry to drive future growth and innovation. Innovation & Artificial Intelligence: Why AI isn't a threat but a tool – if used responsibly – to make underwriting and claims smarter.  Miller emphasized the importance of AI in improving efficiency and consumer confidence, emphasizing its potential as a tool rather than a threat.  She discussed a recent Florida legislative committee meeting devoted to AI and its use in insurance claims, including a subsequent bill filed in the January 2026 legislative session that would require human reviews of insurance claim denials. The podcast had its light moments, as well.  “I often laugh and say that when people see me coming, particularly in the halls of the Capitol of Florida, they either run toward me or they run the other way, because those that go the other way are scared of it.  Insurance is very intimidating, and I do everything I can every single day to demystify it,” said Miller.  (For full Show Notes, visit https://lisamillerassociates.com/episode-61-the-evolving-insurance-landscape/)

Matt Faircloth interviews Robert Beardsley, partner at Lone Star Capital (LSCRE), about navigating the current multifamily cycle, surviving 2021–2022 acquisitions, and why the most resilient opportunities today hinge on debt structure, affordability incentives, and supply-constrained submarkets. Robert breaks down how Texas multifamily has shifted from a “prices only go up” environment to a more balanced but still competitive market, where Class B suburban assets with little new supply outperform shiny Class A developments offering heavy concessions. He explains how LS CRE avoided major distress by minimizing bridge debt exposure and shifting early into affordable-housing-driven acquisitions—leveraging tax-exemption partnerships with housing authorities to create stable NOI without risky value-add pushes. The two dive deep into rising treasuries, soft-landing odds, rent-to-income resilience, recession risk, Texas HB 21 fallout, and why hundreds of improperly structured tax-exemption deals may implode when exemptions expire in 2026.

In this special episode recorded live at Money2020 in Las Vegas, we dive deep into what I think is the most transformative development in lending over the past decade: cash flow underwriting. I welcome back to the show Jason Rosen, CEO and co-founder of Prism Data (I last had Jason on the show back in 2019 when he was with Petal), to explore how real-time bank account data is revolutionizing credit assessment in ways that traditional credit scores simply can't match.Jason explains why the financial disruptions of 2020, from pandemic relief to widespread job changes, exposed critical gaps in conventional credit reporting, and how cash flow underwriting is filling that void. The conversation covers the breakthrough adoption of this technology by major traditional banks, the limitations of FICO scores in capturing a complete financial picture, and why cash flow underwriting represents a once-in-a-century shift in how creditworthiness is measured.In this podcast you will learn:How Jason first got interested in cash flow underwriting.The origin story of Prism Data and how it was incubated inside Petal.How he describes Prism Data today.What goes into building their unique credit models.How their CashScore is created.What matters most in how they distill all the semi-structured data into a score.Why credit decisions are more intuitive when being made with cash flow underwriting.The lending categories where they are seeing the most rapid adoption.How smaller financial institutions can avoid being left behind.Jason's view on why traditional credit models have become less predictive.How lenders are using cash flow underwriting in their application flow.How the friction in connecting a bank account is being reduced rapidly.The impact of the Chase-Plaid deal on cash flow underwriting.What sets Prism Data apart from the others in the cash flow underwriting space.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

Jack Cameron is the co-founder of CreatorFi, a unified platform for creative capital, partnerships, and growth enablement to help the world's best creators Why you should listen CreatorFi is a financing platform developed by the team behind Insomnia Labs, designed to provide working capital to digital creators across categories such as YouTube, music, and user-generated gaming platforms like Roblox. The product emerged after multi-channel networks and creator organizations—including Yoola, which represents around 3,000 creators—approached Insomnia seeking a more efficient way to lend against creators' digital earnings. CreatorFi underwrites assets such as YouTube channels, music catalogs, and in-game item sales, determining how much a creator earns and how much can be advanced to them. The platform uses machine-learning models to evaluate creator data, behavioral patterns, and catalog performance to generate risk-adjusted financing offers. Because digital earnings can be redirected at the platform level, CreatorFi operates as a receivables-based lender—allowing repayments to occur in real time and reducing risk for liquidity providers. Underwriting challenges vary by vertical: YouTube and Roblox offer relatively clean data streams, while music earnings require additional normalization due to fragmented reporting systems. CreatorFi issues advances and repayments primarily in USDC and operates on Aptos, selected for its native USDC support, low transaction fees, and robust on-/off-ramp payment infrastructure. This stablecoin-based system enables faster, lower-cost global payments, particularly benefiting creators in regions where FX conversion fees can exceed 70%. CreatorFi has active partnerships with YouTube networks, music distributors, and Roblox studios, and the company is expanding its origination capacity following a newly announced $2 million strategic partnership with Aptos, with additional creator-focused partnerships planned.

Real-estate operator August Biniaz (Co-Founder & CIO, CPI Capital) breaks down how he grew from agent and small developer to closing $225M+ in multifamily assets—plus the boutique advantages that win in today's market: cross-border investor structures, a mid-market acquisition lane ($20–$50M), and ruthless underwriting discipline (rent growth, exit caps, and debt selection). We cover value-add vs BTR, lessons from deals walked away from, and why talent, conservative debt, and 95% occupancy targets matter more than spreadsheets. Highlights The mid-market moat: Why 100–300 doors, < $50M assets in Tampa (FL) and San Antonio (TX) are a sweet spot. LP economics first: Targeting 15–20% average annualized returns and passing the "net-to-investor" test before bidding. Underwriting levers that kill deals: Keeping organic rent growth to ~2.5%–3%, and being conservative on exit cap rates. Debt is destiny: Why fixed, interest-only 5-year debt reduces "debt distress" risk. Boutique advantage: Direct access to principals, tight asset management, investor dinners, and hands-on ops. Cross-border structure: How Canadian LPs invest into U.S. deals while avoiding double taxation and using registered retirement funds (via MFT). Lessons learned: "Best deals are often the ones you walk away from," plus "hire slow, fire fast. Enjoyed this?

Episode 591 Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White. In this insightful episode, Carl sits down with top-producing loan officer Mike Steplowski from Mount Juliet, Tennessee, to uncover how his team is using AI to clear underwriting conditions faster than ever. Mike shares how his crew leverages a free AI tool called Perplexity to instantly find answers straight from agency guidelines, cutting out the hours of manual searching and reducing interruptions so everyone stays focused on closing loans. Carl and Mike break down how this simple shift has streamlined communication, boosted productivity, and helped his team close 13 loans in a single month while freeing Mike from being the “easy button” for every question. They also touch on how sticking to the basics of the Daily Success Plan continues to fuel steady, referral-based growth even in a changing market. This episode is a great reminder that technology doesn't replace good habits, it amplifies them. When your team knows where to find answers, you stay focused on what really moves the needle: conversations, closings, and client relationships.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Amit Santhirasenan, co-founder and CEO of hyperexponential, an actuary and software engineer who has built the AI native pricing and underwriting platform used by leading specialty carriers. In this episode we cover how to turn messy submissions into structured signals your pricing model can trust – without hiring an army, multi agent architectures, the agentic AI mesh, and the human in the loop controls executives need for auditability and speed, and where agentic underwriting is ready today (and where it isn't), plus the metrics executives should track—cycle time, hit ratio, and loss ratio uplift. KEY TAKEAWAYS Email submissions were a luxury at the start of my career! What's been so exciting for me, as a self-professed nerd, is the pace at which the capabilities of core models have got so good that even 6 months ago was a whole product's capability and feature set is now within the gift of Gemini or GPT5. If you're an underwriter filling out a spreadsheet/renew model, in 2025 you need to be working with hx underwriting , actuary or agent inside a renew model to have your paired partner helping you get to the best result. Why can't you have deep risk research on every single risk? Why can't you say: Tell me the most important characteristics in the world that you can tell me about the top 3 exposures? No human can do this work, the cost/benefit trade off there isn't economic, but you can run an OpenAI deep risk API call to do that on every single risk you underwrite today. We do it for you, it's what we do. All of a sudden it's dramatically easier to bring that level of differentiation and specialism in the way that great underwriting has always been done to every single risk you want to touch. BEST MOMENTS ‘You won't see that many places with a $7 trillion contribution to GDP, with such a small number of companies and people responsible for this.' ‘We demonstrated the first API machine vision algorithm in the market in 2017, now kids coming out of university are doing that as toy projects before they get to our clients.' ‘You can have an army of digital agents helping you now, all for $20 per month!' ‘Generative AI models have unlocked the ability to pull data so quickly out of the information required for underwrite that you can put a very quick red/amber/green status on risks, several orders of magnitude greater than ever before.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Amit Santhirasenan is the Co-founder and CEO of Hyperexponential (hx), the AI native pricing and underwriting platform for P&C insurers. Under his leadership, hx Renew has become known for delivering executive level outcomes: ~50% faster submission to bind, 10× faster model build and deployment, and a platform that supports $45bn+ in GWP for 20+ enterprise customers worldwide. A qualified actuary and computer scientist, Amrit previously spent over a decade in the London Market. He served as Head of Pricing & Analytics at Tokio Marine Kiln, building the managing agent's first technical pricing team to support ~£1.5bn GWP, and earlier held actuarial roles at Catlin (including standing up the Canadian actuarial function).
