J Darrin Gross If you're willing, I'd like to ask you, Brian Seidensticker, what is the BIGGEST RISK? Brian Seidensticker I guess, you know, as far as buying tax deeds or the fund itself, it's for you to to, for me to interpret. Well, I think it's, it's from a tax, just tax sale properties, taxes and taxes in general, the biggest risk is the underlying property value, right? That That alone addresses the you know, is this, is this lien going to am I going to be able to make a return on this lien or this deed at the end of the day, or not?

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you. Eddie Speed, what is the BIGGEST RISK? Eddie Speed Losing my money and losing my money means that I bought a note and I don't get enough recovery to go pay off my investment and still make a yield. So that could be that that could relate to non performing notes. Performing notes, it does everything down the line. It's like at the end of the day. That is why I like buying first mortgages with a cushion between what the collateral is worth and what I invested in the note. And that's the simplest form to say at the end of the day. That's my safety net,...

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you. David Blumenfeld, what is the BIGGEST RISK? David Blumenfeld We're going to answer it a couple different ways, if that's okay. So I think I mean, and this, this first one might, might seem like a self serving answer, but I think the risk for real estate companies in general for not looking at technology. And again, it doesn't have to be the biggest, you know, the biggest, the newest, the the flashiest, but if you're not incorporating technology into your your your day to day operations, whether it be from a marketing perspective, a company, a...

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you, Simon Isaacs, what is the BIGGEST RISK? Simon Isaacs Wow, I would say the biggest risk here. Big Question, the big question. Demand. I. Demand is the biggest risk here. You know, demand for properties, demand, if you know you only need one event, one weather event, and everybody ends up leaving. So I would say demand and weather are the biggest risk in my book, yeah, clearly, in Florida, you're, you're one, you know, one, one major weather event, or something like that from, you know, sour people souring on the on the place, or at least,...
info_outlineDarrin: Jorge Newberry, what is the BIGGEST RISK?
Jorge: To not learn from the past. And so that would be for me to look at my own past and the past of others and see what has happened, how they navigated it and, whether it makes sense to, or how that should influence my actions today. And I'll give you a real life example, is that you know the market. I've been through a couple of downturns in the real estate market and towards the end of every up cycle is like today. Today there are the lenders are, freely giving out money. It's very easy to qualify. They have these, you know, kind of almost subprime loans called non QM loans, and things have gotten very easy and that happens every time. At the top of the market that the money is free flowing, the pricing gets expensive, everything gets really competitive. I'm trying to buy loans and other people coming up with money pay more than me, And they could be the winner of the bid. But really, time will tell whether they're the winner, the loser. So today, I think the biggest risk today is ignoring the past and the fact that we are probably in a very overheated real estate market and just overheated economy, which is likely to turn down very turn down in the near future. It's hard to say exactly when it happens, but now would be the time to take some chips off the table and avoid or at least minimize that risk.
