Closed my second deal of the year today, well over 500 units.

Off mkt, one owner, and next to apts I own.

Same playbook — invest heavily, operate well, and hold for the next generation.

Everyone has heard of DINK’s. In Seattle we call another group HENRY’s. “High Earners Not Rich Yet”

It’s amazing about many high earners don’t own anything. They only rent and have RSU’s. When we do walkthroughs it’s common to see little to no furniture and filthy bathrooms.

@bethanyjbabcock Brilliant idea - we just sent this to one of our inspectors haha

[Bethany | Commercial Real Estate @bethanyjbabcock]

I’d like to pitch a reality show.

A fire inspector, code enforcer and a city planner have to complete a development project while following their own arbitrary rules they have enforced over their careers.

Goal: Get it open before running out of money and declaring bankruptcy.

Bonus round: lease the first floor retail they forced apartment developers to build.

@leah_walczak Our self directed IRA LLC’s are our dog names…you are spot on here. Legacy continues. 😉

@BobKnakal @realEstateTrent I have an alibi - it wasn’t me. 😉

Great way to finish off the Gala week - thanks to @realEstateTrent and @BobKnakal for a great event last night. Pleasure seeing everyone.

@skylarromines I’ve always wondered why this is…sounds like you were outside of the Blade hours, but with a membership it’s often the same price as an Uber. Fascinates me that a 10 min helicopter ride can be the same price…

[CRE8 Capital Fund @CRE8CapitalFund]

@Jeffdthompson @realEstateTrent @BobKnakal I’ll find you 👍
