J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you Sundip Patel, what is the BIGGEST RISK?   Sundip Patel That's a great question. Darrin, by the way, so the biggest risk that I foresee, and in our business, is the underestimating of the impact of AI and to our business and everything we do, from assessing risk, evaluating risk, to, you know, funding that risk, the entire process. So we as a company have taken some bold steps to get ahead, to understand how we can apply AI and what it will mean.

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.

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you. David Codrea, what is the BIGGEST RISK?   David Codrea For me, what I see as the biggest risk that impacts my business the most is time. So it looks at it, there's a huge benefit to time, but there's also a huge risk if you are not able to get the ball moving on things so extended vacancy or or even just time to make a decision if it takes too long for your organization to get things through, to make, get, get approval for something, or make a decision on what you're going to do with this tenant or that tenant.

J Darrin Gross  I'd like to ask you. Joel Miller, what is the BIGGEST RISK?   Joel Miller Well, I'm going to surprise you with the answer, but it's going to be two pronged here. From a financial standpoint, I will say that rental property can be a source for risk, which is why you typically should form an entity that you hold your properties in that protects your personal assets from things that might happen within your entity related to those properties. And on top of that, you know, I do recommend carrying replacement costs insurance on your properties and. A commercial liability...

If you're willing, I'd like to ask you, Anne-Michelle Wand, what is the BIGGEST RISK?

 

Anne-Michelle Wand

Well, I think I touched on it before. I think the one of the biggest risks is over leveraging your product and the so that's how I've created this whole business model to minimize risk by having all the money paid up front and owning the building outright and then having the ability to refinance it when conditions are favorable, in order to pull out investors money that that's that's that allows you to to withstand any downturns, delays or economic factors that may be happening in the outside world. And still, you're still going to have cash flow the way I've designed the project. It's going to break even at 23% so anything above that should be cash flow back to the investors. 

You know, it'll start out small, it'll grow and people will also have the ability there'll be a section in there where people can actually come and enjoy a vacation or or for the over 55 live there full time. So your amount of return will vary depending on how much you use your. Property. You know, that's, that's how I see. You know, minimizing risk is putting the solidarity there of the land. Land, you know, generally doesn't go down in value. And if it does, it goes back up on a on a scale. You know, may go up and down a little, but if you crack it over 20 years, goes up. They're not making any more of it. And especially land on a Caribbean island that's a very desirable land, whether it's right on the ocean or not. Another wonderful factor about Panama is we don't have hurricanes, so people can get out of the hurricanes. We don't have earthquakes. It's it's safe there for your land too. You just need to make sure it's elevated and not right on at sea level for the rising seas that is happening.
