Trying to solve a couple deep rooted societal problems I care about in my lifetime gets my excitement 10x more than leveraging a set of skills to make a lot of money. It will make sense one day.

@BobKnakal @BobKnakal what are the key metrics you track in the map room?

Real estate is not the real estate business, it is the information business. If your information is not top-notch, you will be out of business. This is why you need to be building your own "Knakal Map Room." You won't have to rely on other, potentially outdated, data.

@realEstateTrent So true. I’ve been build CRE software for years. Failed often trying to find product market fit. Can I get your feedback if I’m building what people want: dealflix.io

Wrapped up a call with a startup founder who just raised money from a prominent VC, and couldn't help but notice the large poster on the wall behind him: Make Something People Want

@sweatystartup As Goggins says. It’s the unseen work

The funny thing about entrepreneurship: You can toil away for weeks or months or years and feel like you’re making no progress at all. Then in the matter of weeks it can all come together. The traction takes hold. And you make massive strides.

@sweatystartup It’s takes 5 years for the bamboo treat to sprout. But year 5 (BOOM)

@nickgraynews Best Investors I worked with will just buy properties already in good school zones.

why don't real estate people work more to improve local schools? since it affects their property values so much

A belief I have is every commercial real estate broker will be independent and they will create their own teams across the US / World. Seeing brokers hang their license under a big brokerage but go to market as a different brand. #CRE #retwit

Created Dealflix: dealflix.io I want to make sure I’m solving the main problem for CRE brokers. Can I have your feedback? #commercialrealestate #CRE #Retweet

Creating a new visual image. Every time I see an oak tree, I only see an acorn.

This week we welcomed our first subscriber on @Dealflixcre. After a demo today, an investor following my journey and failures these past 3 years said “I’m so glad you didn’t give up”. These small journeys mean the word.

A multifamily investor with over $100m portfolio told me, "An NDA is not worth the paper it is printed on." #multifamily

Great deals move in silence. #multifamily #commercialrealestate

@DallasAptGP My friend's dad was like that growing up. We were 13 at a golf course, and he gave the doorman 100s every time. This happened all of my teenage years.

@Stealx I can't wait to be a dad one day.

I had the best day ever today My daughter starts kindergarten on Wednesday and all summer she’s been asking me random questions about what I do “Who picks the colors for our apartments?” “What does your office look like?” So today, I took her with me and we visited two different properties Our amazing property managers had a blast touring her through renovated units and units under construction I made her a checklist for her when she was inspecting the units and ‘working’ We then went to a property of mine that has a playground and her mind was blown that we have a playground Best day ever

@maxfisherRE Unpopular opinion is becoming popular. I graduated college and told my parents that college was not for me throughout. I built a network and received unconditional love. Risky, but it helped me.

Unpopular opinion Most college students are in college not because they want to be but because they don’t want to disappoint their parents

How I built my foundation of knowledge in commercial real estate: I Didn't: - Read the latest trendy books. - Start asking around for ideas. Instead, I: - Read books and publications that the top 1% of investors read. - Read biographies. --> Zeckendorf #multifamily

Don't be spooked by the 10yr treasury! Multifamily sellers are willing to let the next buyer assume. Lenders are working with the owners. Working with a Houston Seller – rockin' 3% on 200+ units and ready to make moves!

@LA_Multi_Fam @mhprvpmvp @shawngorham Best accounts to follow?

@mhprvpmvp @shawngorham I take most of my advice from retwit! So far so good 😊

How worried would you be about this tree tonight with Hilary rain & wind? Its In the South Bay. It’s been pushing the concrete around it for a few years now…

@shawngorham I am sorry you have to go through this. There could be many solutions, but your heart knows what is best. Stay Strong!

To remind you I’m very human: I’ve been very anxious today It happens occasionally - it sucks For 7 years I’ve prayed everyday my anxiety would go away. It has drastically reduced 🙏 I’m going to keep praying and trusting God for healing Onward
