What's going on, guys.

We've got a great episode with Cody Payne, the owner of Flex Business Parks, USA,

for anybody that wants to understand Small bay industrial, flex bay, industrial and business

parks, this is a great episode. We talk about the asset class as a whole and how it's evolved

and ultimately where the opportunities are at in this particular asset class, whether you want to

invest actively and or passively in it,

how to lease these things up, how the management works on them, how do they analyze certain

markets and assets, how do they structure the debt and the equity on these things?

What is his future outlook on this as an asset class in commercial real estate investing?

Are it going to get caught up

in this commercial real estate crisis? A lot of different things that you can expect when it

comes to return metrics and analyzing these deals, some of the risks, obviously a lot of the upside,

some great all-around information for understanding and just being in a conversation around an investment asset class,

whether you decide to invest in it or not, thinking about how investors look at these types of deals,

investment vehicles, how they pertain and tie into investing goals, is going to be something that

you can apply these same types of discussions around other asset

classes or other investment strategies that you're thinking about. A great discussion with my

buddy Cody Payne today. Let's go ahead and dive in. Cody Payne, welcome into show. I appreciate it.

Glad to be here. Anytime I can talk with a, you know, fellow commercial real estate investor,

somebody that's, you know, an expert and specializes in the industry and the space, I always get

excited. We got a lot of people that love, you know, obviously real estate as a whole, as an asset

class. But as you know, so many different asset classes within that, you know, general topic of real estate.
