Starbucks' Mistake Is Your Opportunity

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/23

On today’s show we are talking about a service business that used to be on top of its segment in the market. The company we’re talking about is Starbucks. So it’s no surprise to me that today Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol announced a major drop in both earnings and revenue. They also suspended financial guidance for the upcoming quarters. Once a brand loses loyalty to the brand, it’s hard to get it back. Same store sales are down 6%. Attempts to win back customers with various promotions have

Do Central Banks Really Matter?

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/22

On today’s show we are wondering if governments and central banks in particular have any effect on the repairing the economy. It’s a simple question really. If central banks can truly influence the economy, inflation and the unemployment rate, then why are central banks all behaving the same way at approximately the same time? Why is the bank of Canada going to lower interest rates later this week? Why did the ECB lower rates last week? Why did the Federal Reserve lower rates by half a point a

How To Evaluate A Subcontractor Bid

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/21

On today’s show we are talking about how to evaluate a bid from a subcontractor. If you follow the procurement method used by most government departments, in the US and in Canada, the process makes sense. Everyone needs to meet the minimum requirements. For all those who meet the minimum requirements, the purchaser will select the lowest bidder. Intuitively this makes sense. But it puts the burden on the purchaser to specify every aspect that matters to the buyer. My mentor Dr. Nido Qubein says

On today’s show we are taking a look at a couple of global companies. I’m reading front page articles in the WSJ and others suggesting that economists are thinking that the chance of recession in the foreseeable future is vanishing.

But if you’re looking for a location for a winter residence and want to stay longer than 90 or 180 days then you will likely need a residency visa. Some countries offer a lengthy process

She married an Irishman who was in investment banking and moved to the US. The marriage didn’t last and Nadia found herself on her own. She has

Stimulus Versus Structural

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/15

On today’s show we are talking about why Germany’s economy seems to be stuck in reverse. We keep hearing about how Germany, which has traditionally considered the economic engine of Europe is struggling. The German government recently downgraded their economic outlook and are forecasting contraction well into next year. The ECB is forecast to drop rates this week in order to further stimulate the economy. But I believe Germany’s issues are structural. Here are the factors that in my opinion

How To Deal With Shrinking Markets?

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/14

On today’s show we are talking about demographics and migration. This is a topic you’re going to hear a lot more about in the coming weeks and months. Demographics is like a law of physics when it comes to real estate investing. It’s like gravity. It’s no surprise that fertility rates are well below the rate required to maintain population constant. If you want to examine at what declining population looks like, you only need to look at Japan. Japan’s fertility rate has been below the minimum 2.1

Presenting A Master Plan To City Council

2024/10/11

On today’s show I’m going deep into a planning rationale that was presented to an information session at Colorado Springs City Council earlier this week. Whenever you are presenting a concept to the city, you are asking for them to vote in favor of your project. In order to make an effective presentation you have to put yourself into the shoes of the person sitting in the council chamber who is tasked with listening to your proposal and then at some point in the process voting in favor or against

Can You Truly Prepare For a Storm?

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/08

A few weeks ago I did an episode on hurricane preparation. Great ideas for storm preparation are fantastic until reality sets in. Hurricane Milton is scheduled to make landfall in Florida on Thursday. The storm will weaken as it makes landfall. However the size of the storm is such that traversing the land of the state of Florida will not take that much energy out of the storm by the time it reaches the Atlantic coast. Properties along the Gulf coast definitely need to expect a severe storm. But

A Diversion Is A Delay By Another Name

The Real Estate Espresso Podcast ·

2024/10/04

On today’s show we are talking about a new program in Philadelphia. Philadelphia is a city that I know well. I’ve been developing in Philadelphia since 2011. Our last new construction project we started in Philly was in 2017. Several communities across the United States have experiments with a new form of mandated settlement called diversion. After a trial period, the city in June made it a permanent requirement for landlords to go through out-of-court negotiations with tenants before they can sue
