@bme_1982 check your DM please. ty.

@ddugal Look forward to meeting

Another Tuesday, another STR report… “We’re not making money, but we’re taking market share from the comp set!”

@bme_1982 might be fri-sun, based near broken arrow. keep you posted.

@ddugal Yeah. I’m around. I office next to the hotel. My name is Brian. I’ll appear.

@bme_1982 may be in Tulsa late next week. can we sync up?

@ddugal Thanks! Yeah for sure

@TKlatte would love to walk the site in a few weeks. lmk and keep up the great work 💪🏾

@ddugal City of LA, 90034

Started last week on a new personal project with my partners. We are turning an old SFR into a 4plex. All units will be 3bed/2bath 1000 SF with washer/dryer. This is similar to SB9 but the zoning allows duplexes here so it functions the same. Hope to be done in 4 months!

@davidellebrecht @davidellebrecht - did you find a solution for your friend? Shoot me a DM please. Ty.

I need some help. A friend of mine has been having seizures every 3ish years and doctors cannot figure it out. He most recently had one a few weeks ago. Randomly, there will be a 24 hour period where he has 2-3 seizures. He will get tests done, and but no one can figure out what the issue is. Then, there are no other symptoms for a few years, until it happens again. Reasonably, he is feeling pretty hopeless. He’s otherwise healthy and in very good shape. Lives in Southern California. Any suggestions?

@shawngorham two weeks, so you can return the device, etc.

@shawngorham test it out Shawn on a device for 2 weeks, maybe only on WiFi for the use of the apps/banking, ideally the Google centric ones. I switched from iOS to the pixel android ecosystem. currently have the pixel fold, and i use my laptop 25% less. holler if any q's

I have had an iPhone since I traded it for my Blackberry. I use Gmail, Google Workspace, Google Maps, Google Docs, Google Domains, Gemini Surely all of this is better on a Google Phone, right? But I do love my iPhone

@JohnGonzalesLA1 @Dodgers in friedman we trust 💙

Crossed the shortest day tenbdats back, & moving toward light later in the day. Now we're just across the halfway point between the end of the World Series and the start of Spring Training. Time for the @Dodgers to sign an impact player!

@antonia_mdprjct keep going 💙

"Be reasonable, Antonia" I can't tell you how many times I've heard this. Since I was a kid, I've had "big ideas." Admittedly, some were too big for the moment. Like that one time when I was in middle school and planned a birthday party for one of my friends (which included inviting a couple dozen kids) at another friend's house without cluing in any of the adults that would be involved. Needless to say, the party didn't happen. As I've gotten older, I've learned to prepare a bit better for "the big ideas." I've surrounded myself with people I deeply respect, who have accomplished incredible things. I've been fortunate to receive their kindness, generosity (and many times, tough love). So, when I first started talking about expanding the shop to invest in our own deals, none of my close people told me "to be reasonable." That doesn't mean I haven't heard the phrase in the last year-- it means I haven't heard it from the people who matter. Important to note: more than a handful of "the people who matter" have come from this crazy place. @realEstateTrent @iononrecourse @mwmoedinger @natfalconi @aussieflya @investing_law @somehotelguy And of course, @bondbasis who opted to leave behind ~20 years behind a Bloomberg terminal to join me and bet a whole lot on our success. This year brought some big wins and some exciting challenges. Here’s to an unreasonable 2026! 🥂

@bme_1982 I'll reach out next time I'm out. if you come to the west coast, holler.

@excel_ranger @bme_1982 average about twice a year Brandon

@ddugal @bme_1982 When are you in tulsa dev?

@bme_1982 very nice design my man 🤌🏾 wanna sync up on my next Tulsa visit? keep up the good work 👊🏾

@ddugal Brut

@bme_1982 which asset in Tulsa?

@parkertankus It’s a report that aggregates industry and a comp set occupancy and room rate data so you can compare how you’re doing to your market and competitors. I think we’re the 4th highest performing hotel (per room) in tulsa and probably 2nd with f&b. And still a goose egg for owners!

@JohnGonzalesLA1 @Brett_A_Taylor 💯

If you were in any profession, why wouldn’t you want to live in one of the top few cities to be young and wealthy, for a company that compensates you as essentially as well as any other would, with a great chance at championship in a profession where that’s a huge goal? Winning a championship isn’t a given, so while being a Dodger gives one a significantly higher chance, he and the team still have to compete and come through. Also, unlike an NBA star or an NFL quarterback, one baseball player isn’t determining a championship by who they play for. Expecting a baseball player to NOT want to join the Dodgers, just because he’d make one of the top few teams even better is just silly. Don’t hate the player, hate the game. The players and the Dodgers are just doing whatever they want and can within the structure of the sport.

At this point, if you're a star player who signs with the Dodgers, you're a fucking coward.

@AndrewWarner keep your head up and cherish the experiences with him. be well Andrew, sending loads of love 💙

I used to hate seeing people post here about the death of a parent. I thought they were using death to score social media points. So when my dad died on Thanksgiving, I didn't post. I didn't really tell anyone. I was wrong. People didn't know I was in pain, so they sent the usual requests by email, text, etc. Then, my sister posted something on her Facebook, and I got a few texts from old friends we grew up with. Those messages were emotional oxygen that I didn't think I needed. Just seeing people cared helped when I felt so damn low. Some people who lost parents told me about feelings they had after their loss. I realized I was feeling the same thing they were. I just didn’t notice it before they told me. I thought I understood ALL my feelings because I cried, I mourned, I journaled, etc. But in their stories I noticed more of what I was going through. I feel so emotionally exposed telling that my father died. And even more so telling you that I want the outreach from people who know me. Maybe it's personal growth. Or maybe I'll delete this post later and return to my stoicism.

@ThinkAppraiser 💯

Buy this for 60% of ARV because the floor plan SUCKS Redesign and open concept the inside and sell it for WAY more money Crappy real estate is where the opportunities come from 🤙

@Jb2Investments awesome JB! show me around when I come visit Bend?

Still so stoked about how these units came out. Almost fully leased now.

@RaphaelKahan 🔥

Nobody asked but the lore behind my profile picture is I'm standing in front of the first deal in which I'm a majority partner. (Closed yesterday) If you zoom in you can make out the name of the previous owner.
