This should be the biggest story in the country right now.
Barksdale is the HQ for our B52 nuclear bombers, it's where Bush sheltered on 9/11, and the drones are reported as "far more sophisticated than anything seen in Ukraine ... and well beyond Iranian capabilities."

We backed out of a house and walked away from 5k Just as rates were climbing in the fall of 2022.
We went in contract at a house when we could secure 4.5% debt. By the end of our due diligence. Rates were low sixes.
The house later sold for 100 grand less than what we were in contract for

@chip_setzer Glorious.
I've talked to a few commodity guys lately that just eviscerate the game.

Say it louder for the kids in the back:
Go learn to sell.
Get out there. Get uncomfortable.
If you stick with it, you will crush it.
And if you pivot to something else?
Your sales skills always translate to value in your next endeavor.

I’m hiring a junior broker for my team!
They come from the director level of property management. I want them on my team, rather than floundering in the typical broker path that yields high burnout.
How should we structure the first two years? Splits/draw/mentorship/team
Need help from those who have built out an effective team.
