I've spent my quarantine days researching my county and their process, looking at properties, and even planned on attending an auction before the coronavirus caused my county to postpone everything. 

You are the investor you benefit from mortgage paydown, equity build up and tax deductions.The Arbitrage person just has a job, but they are making money at their job.I have heard of unsuccessful Arbitrage people just walking away from leases, especially during the pandemic. 

We used the various calculators that BP provided, AirDNA data for that specific property (we compared a number of properties before putting in an offer), and were conservative with the AirDNA data knowing that bookings are down being compared to prior years with the pandemic. 

Excluding renewals, leasing volume from new leases in the first half of 2023 was 5% lower than its pre-pandemic average in the first halves of 2015 to 2019, albeit nearly 50% greater than in the first half of 2022.The higher amount of available space is helping tenants find new space or negotiate renewals as their lease terms end.

Other requests include affordable family health care, pension contribution increases, and increased staffing to have hours back to pre-pandemic levels.There are approximately 2,300 rooms in 17 hotels under construction, resulting in a 2.0% inventory increase over the next few years.

Most recently, absorption has declined by 1.1 million SF over the past 12 months.While demand on the whole has been negative, shifts in post-pandemic shopping behavior has benefitted neighborhood centers.

If you dont hear anything you can start the process but it won't go into effect until this pandemic is over.

@Larry BartherLarry I will be there I believe in October and November one of the pandemics over in Florida I’m gonna keep your number in my contacts and when I get to Saints Augustine Florida I will definitely call you thank you for reaching out to me I greatly appreciate it so I will be in touch with you when I’m heading to Florida.

In the long run, the properties that will survive after the "pandemic fever bookings" level out will most likely be the higher end properties.

@Ross Bowman Yes indeed especially since COVID-19 pandemic 😷
