In the inaugural episode of 2021, we welcome Hunter Thompson, founder of Asym Capital and Managing Principal at Cash Flow Connections to speak about the commercial real estate landscape in 2021 and beyond.
Hunter has long been focused on living an entrepreneurial lifestyle where he could be his own boss, set his own hours, and most importantly, pursue the opportunities that he finds interesting. Hunter’s early career started with him pursuing education and coaching online to learn to play Professional Poker, where he found enough success to start investing in people, businesses, and eventually Real Estate. Hunter quickly learned that the risk assessment skills he learned in poker translated very well to evaluating investment opportunities, and shares with us some simple, yet brilliant insights into how these seemingly disparate disciplines have worked to help advance his career as an entrepreneur.
In our thought-provoking discussion surrounding the current and future state of Commercial Real Estate, Hunter talks to us about the way he thinks about investing today, particularly in a post-Covid environment. We discuss the changes to various commercial real estate sectors that are likely to arrive, and the impact they might have on operations. We also talk about the diligence, underwriting, and monitoring it takes to stay on top of investments, and why it is important to know what you are getting into when establishing a source of Passive Income. Finally, we spend some time highlighting the Intelligent Investor Real Estate Conference, a 3-day, newly virtual, investor conference, presented by Asym Capital & For Investors By Investors. The conference provides exciting educational content and will foster an environment where meaningful, lifelong professional relationships can be made.
Key Insights:
· How the risk-assessment skills acquired in a Professional Poker career can apply in evaluating investment fundamentals
