From the CRE side of things, Dollar General rents for new stores are up 40%-50% from a few years ago (anecdotal.. not based on any "big data") and they have had to modify their lease structures to include rent increases versus the flat 15 year leases that were typical 2022 and earlier. The increased...

[quote]Tom Cook is a commercial real estate appraiser in Baton Rouge. I would use him. [/quote] I am an MAI appraiser with a national firm. I do work in LA but I'm not trying to solicit business on TD (and this isn't in my wheelhouse). I second Tom Cook (225-293-7006 tcook@cookmoore.com). If you...

[quote]The coffee is some of the best I have ever had and I live in Colombia. [/quote] IIRC correctly you're from Huntsville. They're opening a few locations in the metro in the near future. Definitely seem to be growing a lot and have a bit of a 'cult' following it seems like - similar to What...
[quote]This is a helpful reference thread from someone in the industry. [/quote] Went to check out the thread and realized I was the third reply on it back in 2017. I'm still a commercial appraiser. I got my CG in 2017 and my MAI in 2019. I still work for the same person and company who hired...

Boudreaux woke up one morning to find Marie packing her bags. "Where the heck are you going?" demanded Boudreaux. Marie replied, "You know all this free sex I've been giving you all these years? Well I just found out I can get $200 a shot for it out in Las Vegas." With that Boudreaux jumped out of b...

There is a lot of very cheap money from banks and investors with a large appetite for multifamily real estate currently. It is a stupid market. Most real estate deals I'm seeing go through right now in the SE don't make much sense. Purchasers/developers are baking in a LOT of rent increases and not ...

[quote]Because I want to be able to cruise around off-road in stealth mode and Toyota is the only manufacturer on the planet I trust to do it and make it reliable. [/quote] My mom just traded in a 2006 Highlander Hybrid with 200k miles on it. Never had any extra costs for being a hybrid (such as...
[quote]I don’t think of a Lexus as uppity. It’s such a reliable car. I think, yeah they have money, but they are also smart.[/quote] I agree with this (not just because I am a Lexus driver). I bought a two year old Lexus SUV for less than a new Ford Explorer with somewhat similar features (leathe...
This is such a broad question but I'll give some thoughts on it: 1. I think, if anything, we will see a "phased" increase in the minimum wage. I don't think you'll see it go from $7.25 to $15 overnight (I certainly hope not). When the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25 in the late 200...

[quote]EBITDA x multiple [/quote] Agree with both of the responses so far. To expand on this, the difficult part is going to be finding a "true" EBITDA. That is going to take determining a "market" salary for yourself at the very least but probably need to adjust for some other things as well...
