I'd like to ask you. Blake Rogers, What is the BIGGEST RISK?

 

Blake Rodgers

Sure. So I think in in our space, we say this all the time to to our investors, because they ask us this question as well, what? What's, what do you think the biggest risk is here, guys with this asset class? For us, it's really, since we're buying single tenant deals. I think it's the single tenant nature of these deals. We're buying vacant sites a lot of the time. So the risk for us is you either lease it or you don't, and you either do it in the amount of time that you said you would or you don't. So that, I think that for us is just being hyper focused on, you know, how long is it going to take us to do this. What are all the other, you know, properties in this market leasing for making sure we have all the data and that we're and we're underwriting the amount of time that we need to to lease these up, and that we're buying a product that these tenants want, and that's not going to sit there for a long time, because that's, that's the way that, the way that we can really get hurt, but we can control this risk, though, this isn't, you know, just like a macro risk. A lot of guys in our space got hurt pretty bad four or five years ago when interest rates went crazy during covid, and so that was a huge risk, and some of those guys just didn't foresee that coming. And so that's that's one thing, but for what we can control in buying these types of properties, it's really determining how long do we have to lease this and making sure that we we execute on that business plan.
