Key take aways from meeting 30+ companies in Las Vegas: ♦️ Data Centers continue to experience robust growth, driven by strong demand and constrained supply ♣️ Storage REITs have faced headwinds this year due to record-low apartment turnover and a stagnant housing market ♥️ Skilled nursing (SNF) and senior housing operating (SHOP) REIT management teams struck a confident tone in our meetings ♠️ Office REITs have performed well this year, benefiting from strong leasing, rent growth, and share price gains Reach out if you want to find out more about REITs.

Real estate sector takeaways from our meetings and asset tours in Las Vegas last week. Interesting to see Vegas evolve, hear about improving supply fundamentals, and how investors think Trump 2.0 could affect real estate.

"It is Dramatic - and Dangerous!" 🎭 ☠ 🧀 OK, so your #Hyperbole has got my attention. Luckily, merely reporting on The Great Cheese Roll is somewhat less of both. Although you've gotta feel disappointed in the online BBC News headline efforts: 'As Gouda as it gets' - really? Is that the best they've got? It should, surely, have been an absolute Brie-ze for them! Do NOT adjust your sets. Yes, that still image really does show the true gradient of the increasingly world-famous Cooper's Hill, near the Gloucestershire village of Brockworth. Apparently, that's enough to attract keen competitors from all over the globe.🌍 Which seems a long way to travel, simply to secure a trip to A&E / ER. Plus an "Alphabet of Adjectives". But at least the event is "free to enter". So that makes it alright, I guess? "England is mad. I love it; I love it! I'm buzzin'; I'm buzzin'!" The BBC offers more than two hours of footage, of all the men's, women's and children's races, on its iPlayer portal, for those who can access it. Sorry, did you just say 'children's races'?🚸 Is that even legal? It's certainly a #HealthAndSafety nightmare. You'd surely need to be enduring the slowest of news days to watch the whole thing. But the 3.5 minute clip at the link shared below should sate your appetite. Until NEXT year, at least. When I suspect even more elite international "talent" will hope to join the excited throng... I previewed this event at the start of the UK's long holiday weekend. But nobody seemed to be put off by my warnings of previous injuries and hospitalisations. Far from it, in fact. They seemed to provide additional motivation. Should any have been required: https://lnkd.in/eViGjCCd I genuinely did feel slightly sorry for those involved in the comedic false start, in the women's race. They'd come all that way, just to provide the "Sporting" soundbite of the year, so far: "They are not even chasing a cheese." Suggesting it was this oversight, alone, which made their pointless participation crazy. The nearby Tetbury Woolsack Race seems eminently sensible, by comparison.🐏 Clue: it isn't! But could you do BOTH, next year? I'm pretty sure somebody's gonna try, some time soon.😱 https://lnkd.in/et7gNVBK
