Not playing enough golf. Portland USA

@CFC_OBED West coast is enjoying it, thanks

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@greggmunikwa On the west coast, Mexico for lunch, Korea for dinner. It’s actually quite nice.

@FOS Feel bad for the ego at the game that was first one left off this list

@i_amthe_uno @TNTSportsUS Soft foul occurred very late in the time wasting part of the final stoppage time.

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

Board should be sacked, agree, but won’t matter because it’s not a real business. It’s a govt welfare program. Even still they managed to over-lever assets and fail to operate sustainably.

In best of times HF could barely do its job. Faced with severe market turbulence the total lack of governance was laid bare.

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@moseskagan @kirkbyers Not unique to LA. Similar concerns up and down the west coast. We invest nationally with a focus on MF and deal flow is markedly lower on the west coast. Meanwhile closing in the mid Atlantic, SE, TX etc.

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@kirkbyers @moseskagan You have to attract investor capital. A deal in LA has to be extraordinarily compelling now as an offset to the political risks. investors can and will go elsewhere.

Or you can go bridge to bridge… to bridge…

[Jeff Feldman @Jefffeldman]

In an ideal world you go from a construction loan directly to a perm loan.

But debt is based on time.

And that timing doesn’t always workout.

So at times you have to get a bridge to get to the perm.

Take out your construction loan, cheaper debt, and buy yourself time.

One of the most competitive spaces in the debt market.

@KATUNews To city council hammer heads, everything is a nail. Drunk on power, they believe their job is to make rules and regulations. The job of good government is to protect our freedoms. We are so lost.

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@OregonianPol I wonder what level of priority the police will put on busting underground foie gras houses?

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

Agreed. Makes ZERO sense. Portland hotels are collapsing from lack of demand relative to existing supply. No rational investor would BUILD a new hotel in PDX today. You can buy any hotel you want for a fraction of the cost to build one. Simultaneously there are at least two new concert venues currently under construction. ??????

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

More BS politics from our BS city govt. Notice how the jobs being “saved” are carefully selected to elicit support: police and parks. A prudent budget would fund those jobs in the first place and cut elsewhere. The article does not explain what we lose. I guess we get a little bit less “clean energy”.

@JMagleby @KillaKreww They were 12 at the time

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

You aren’t wrong, but it’s more than that. It’s the taxes. Portland and Mult Co have ridiculous taxes both corporate and personal that are easily avoided by moving your business or you home across the river or the county line. Homeless/drugs have been rough on downtown but the impact is amplified when normal folks have moved business and homes out to the suburbs to escape taxes

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@SimpleCRE The problem is the current rents are (often) way above market. So yes, you caveat with “right cap rate” but it could be an astronomical cap rate on contract rent to get to a reasonable cap rate on market rent

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@HeiditheHoFjord $20,000 is a ridiculous threshold. It serves one purpose: protect the homeless industrial complex.

@thwacknicklaus if you are in the fairway, in a divot that has been filled with sand, you are literally in ground under repair

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@GovTinaKotek Just don’t die in Oregon. Worst death tax in the nation

[David Tindall @DST_PDX]

@MikeKATU Saw one this morning on MLK
