One of the most important skills to develop. Strengthening belief and conviction and feeding that over uncertainty and doubt ongoing day in and day out and noticing when you’re hooked as an opportunity to choose “I’ll figure it out”. Simple but not easy. Trusting that it’s all meant to serve you and this too for the good. Whatever it takes. Good reminder that building these powerful mindsets is a skill like everything else. Not born with it but get to become it. Getting 1,000 reps or even 10,000 reps of choosing “I figure it out” instead of “I don’t know” or whatever else can hook you is it.

This is what the scale of our operational activity to eliminate Iran’s influence across the region looks like:

Stop waiting for permission.
Start moving.

I’ve seen it firsthand—deals die not because they’re bad, but because someone assumed it wouldn’t work. “It has to be non-recourse.” “I won’t do it above this rate.” “I need X or I’m out.”

Then they move forward anyway—once it’s real.

Lesson: Watch what people do, not what they say.

Take action. Structure creatively.
And don’t block your own momentum.

“As a fish is to water, and a bird is to air, so is man unto himself.”

I’ve always loved that quote.

A fish doesn’t know it’s in water. A bird doesn’t realize it’s in air. And we—more often than we think—fail to see the constraints we’ve placed on ourselves.

It’s true in life. And it’s definitely true in business.

We get so used to what we’ve been doing that we forget what we’re capable of doing.
It becomes easy to overlook real opportunities simply because they don’t match our most recent track record.

A conversation with a friend this week reminded me of that.

We were talking through a financing strategy he’s actively using—and suddenly I saw a version of myself operating at a much higher level.

It hit me: I’ve spent years solving financing challenges across condos, industrial, hotel, office, retail, assisted living, and more.

Yet I caught myself thinking like “the multifamily guy” just because that’s where my recent work has been. That mindset nearly made me overlook some compelling hotel opportunities.

Your experience doesn’t lose value just because it’s not front and center.

That conversation reenergized me and brought some much-needed clarity.

The truth is: I’ve built a deep network of specialty capital providers across asset types.
If a deal is sound, I know how to frame it, structure it, and bring it to the right capital.

If you’ve got a deal that doesn’t check the typical boxes—or feels like it’s being overlooked—there may be a better path forward.

Feel free to reach out. Always happy to help explore what’s possible.

I am currently in Israel. I am inside the Jewish state.

They are surrounded by millions of people who literally want to massacre the Jews and wipe them out.

In a sickening twist, some western media outlets want you to sympathise with terrorists.

Anti-Zionism is antisemitism.

@hitsamty It’s been awesome and stands out as incredibly unique!

If you’re in the South Florida real estate community, you need to be at this event.

Sunday Evening, March 23rd. Wynwood. @JNFUSA Flagship Estate Event.

Last year, this event was a massive success. And this year? It’s going to be even better.

Here’s why:
@ivan_kaufman Founder & CEO of @arbor1, as our keynote

Russell Galbut & Marisa Galbut, sharing their family’s impact on South Florida real estate and philanthropy in our feature panel.

Moderated by @SimonZiff_AZ, one of the best in the business

With a special honor to Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steven Witkoff and his son, @Alex_Witkoff

The lineup is incredible, and the attendance will be unmatched.

But the biggest reason to be there? Impact.

This isn’t just another event—it’s a chance to be part of something bigger. To directly help rebuild communities in Israel. To make a real, lasting difference.

For decades, JNF-USA has been creating attainable communities in Israel’s north and south.

And since October 7th, it’s been on the front lines, restoring and rebuilding communities that were deeply affected. Helping people restart their lives.

This is real. This is urgent. And this is your opportunity to step up.

Don’t just hear about the impact—be part of it.

I’ve known about JNF-USA for decades, but it wasn’t until the last several years—when I helped launch the real estate division in South Florida that I now an honored to Co-chair—that I truly saw the scale of its impact.

Seeing our South Florida real estate division grow and knowing the difference we’re making has been nothing short of incredible.

If there was ever a time to get involved, this is it.

Watch the video. Come to the event. DM me with any questions.

Hope to see you there.

🚨 CPACE lender lists are a trap—here’s the unfiltered truth.

You’ve seen those “hundreds of CPACE lenders” lists and thought, “Great, plenty of options.”

Think again. Only 1-2% of those lenders approve CPACE deals with any real consistency. The rest?

They’re one-offs—exceptions and often done begrudgingly with some real aem twisting.

Maybe you had the billionaire borrower with massive credit behind it and it was an accommodation by that relationship bank or there was half the project costs going in as equity for a major hotel project making it a no-brainer. That’s not your average project.

Don’t be fooled. Assuming CPACE approval is easy—or that you’ll get it at the leverage you want—is a fast track to disappointment. It’s not about the lender’s name on a list; it’s about the story behind your deal:

- Who’s the sponsor?
- How solid is the business plan?
- Does the capital stack make sense for an exit?

Most lenders aren’t handing out C-PACe approvals like free samples.

Get a few perspectives before you dive into CPACE for your capital stack.

And when you’re ready for the no-BS take—reach out to me.

I’m the first call for people who want a real perspective on CPACE, backed by years and years of in the trenches experiences since 2017 from different sides, as a CPACE provider, a lender and an advisor.

Message me for the straight talk.

We crave success but hate looking silly—and that’s the deal. It’s wild how much avoiding looking 'bad' holds us back.

I’m at my best working on fresh, innovative stuff and bringing it to clients—sharing ideas that are early, unproven, and might flop.

I keep it real: 'This is new. They’ve barely funded anything yet. Here’s why it’s smart, and here’s the risk (no big deposits or traps—solid track record elsewhere, vetted by credible folks who’ve known them for years).'

It’s just one option in a sea of them. If it tanks, we’re not locked in—we’re exploring all paths.

But that willingness to look bad if it doesn’t pan out? That’s what cracks the door open to the big wins and that's the game I'm playing.

Real motivation isn’t about carrots and sticks—it’s about what drives us from within. It’s built on three pillars:

Autonomy: The urge to direct our own lives.
Mastery: The desire to get better at something that matters.
Purpose: The yearning to contribute to something bigger than ourselves.

These aren’t just ideals—they’re the foundation for a better way to work and live. Shift the system, and watch what’s possible
