Technology is the second best performing sector and the s p 500 after President Trumps election victory last november of 25 since november but even amazon facebook and google contributing to gain some Tech Companies are offering to stay private longer. They are more you are saying a shakeout of the winners and losers. You make a good point because what we are seeing are these Large Companies fight facebook and amazon Netflix Google companies. They have their own investing so they are saying forget about private equity. We are going to invest directly in companies and you are the end of fishery or it. How does that go down, tell us about your company. Its a digital meeting company. Midteens to mid30s. We had business number to tease me. We have a Media Company and reallife experience with in spite of problem with disney as they havent figured out how to tap into this young audience that we did just that. Similar business off this is a new audiences. Maria you are saying largecompany saying we can do this on our own. We will put money behind the startup. Was becoming clear is its hard to build these companies. It takes more than a day or an hour. Its hard to take a vision of a company and say lets replicated and you find somebody like rattu has 130 million visitors a month where are you going to build that from inside of your own company . So i think you are seeing Large Companies recognize its better to partner and invest as opposed to own or create everything so i think youll see some of that and if you look at big Real Estate Companies that you never thought would want to participate in the marketplace, so i think it is a trend. Maria tell us about cadre mages recently had this successful round. We recently announced 65 million led by andreessen aura with and jeff jordan just joined our board and i saw a few years ago the session you did with jeff and brian. That phase of companies becoming what it is today and we believe cadre will also be the next dimension of transformation and in our world what we are really focused on this redefining investing. The same way amazon changed spending, buying. 10 years from now we want cadre to be the catalyst of the investor world of specifically what we are building is the stage iv Real Estate Investment. Maria you come with the experience of a real estate business. Lack stone was an incredible platform and experience and the institutions that built a great business. The way we think about our Business Model i cadre is if i would ask you what is the largest most profitable industry in the world most people wouldnt know the answer. Its real estate, and 80 chilean dollar industry and youve seen transformation with airbnb and car sharing with uber but no one knows is the biggest industry in the world. We are adding a new dimension that may be a blackstone institution built on different principles. Thats whats so exciting about the opportunity. Maria your store has become incredibly successful in the short period of time. Congratulations to you as well. What are you trying to do and talk to us about what you need to do to take it to the next level. We believe we have an opportunity to create the local social networks so we connect with friends use twitter and find people that we think are into string and they connect to colleagues. There hasnt been a social network until next door. Thats the inspiration for the company that we started five years ago. Today over 80 of american neighborhoods use next door. The last round was over a billion dollars in the interesting change that has occurred that these guys are talking about is money is everywhere for Great Companies. You can choose to get it for my traditional pathway like a venture capitalist or late stage investor or corporate partner. At the end of the day was important for us as we try to fulfill these grand ambitions is find the best partner. Maria when we come back we will talk about that.

President chen begin it clear that Technology Industries a central focus in this economy. Through meetings with Industry Leaders like apple and amazons jeff bezos. We are back with our panel. Great to see everybody and thats my question for you ryan because he were a small start up relative to what we are talking about in terms of the impact on tax reform and some of these policies. Whats the most important policies like to see coming out of this administration to help your business get to the next level . The way we think about policies we leave that to the experts. At a high level the thing that is important is actually pervasive right now and innovation. Innovation is good for a group of economies and good for our domestic economy because it adds transformation change and opportunity. From our perspective at cadre we are innovating in real estate. We want more people to have access. The only way that was available in successful was because we innovated. We said this existing Real Estate Investing model does not work and we want to change it for the better. The most important theme that needs to be pervasive and continue to be so is innovation. Maria one of the things as you want to rollback red tape. Thats one of the things the president has talked about so far making it easier to eliminate the red tape. Do you see that happening and is it easier for you to take the Company Forward . Some people say thats not thats why they are not going public. Theres too much brockers the. Theres a lot of friction in d. C. And real estate. If you really take a step back and think about the Big Industries of our time they are deeply entrenched. Real estate is an industry thats been built on efficient bureaucracies, health care. A lot of the infrastructure government so i think its more a function of needing to take alone approach the marathon to build these companies and platforms and industries that are very very hesitant purposes in the best companies are able to continue to raise capital. In our case we were overprescribed at 130 million today because investors understand. We are transforming something that doesnt happen overnight and i think thats probably why more companies are staying private in the ones by the way that dont have the Business Model they are not staying private or they dont exist. Maria do you agree with that in terms of the Regulatory Environment and any changes you want to see . Generally our industry is about innovation and regulation. What we have discussed is exactly the case which is we want things that will help us move forward and move faster not things that will slow us down. Thats the general approach. From a nextdoor standpoint where about the local communities have a look at less at what is happening nationally and what is looking looking at whats happening locally. They are laws regulations would happen on the local level not just the ones where focused on but in general our industry is about trying to create ways for companies to do things faster, to do things better instead of slowing down a little bit and held back. And. Maria shareholders focus on the Business Model dan. Is regulation decreases the next question is can these become businesses so a pretty substantial amount for my the greatest Media Companies and they dont do that often so they obviously saw something in brit. Brit would he do with net capital and what is the Business Model with branding company . A lot of people dont know is when i was starting at i did so because i was at google beforehand launching a product which is now turned into chrome cast. 2009 it was standing on the doorstep of every Major Television network asking to put their video content on. You were 24 warn you are doing it. I was 24. I graduated college early. It was shocking to me as a 24 go a 24 girl that i could watch television on the internet. Thats what i want to do and i was watching youtube on the internet obviously. It gave me a chance to go at that Market Opportunity and 10 years later what you are seeing is those networks are putting it in the interweb internet. Now they are breaking away from things like netflix and making streaming bundles, making espns own platform. What im excited about what disney is the opportunity to think about entering about what is the next platform for young women . Is an audience i know very well. Maria we have to take a break will make him back i want to get your take on where the growth stories are technology right now. These are consumer related companies that i wonder what the runway is. Well talk about that brit dan and nura after the break its time for the biggest sale of the year with the new sleep number 360 smart bed.

Ends saturday maria welcome back treated. We are back with a roundtable today brit moran ryde williams Dan Rosensweig and narrative. Your thoughts and discrimination. Let me start with you. Do i believe in gender discrimination . Yes. Maria do you believe its happening . Its happening. I believe in 100 of the cases its happening that i believe theres a lot of unconscious however its the premise of the fact that there are 7 female venture capitalists and civil con valley and we have an idea that resonates with women in resolving a problem that women have its difficult to get that across to his 60 or 60 or a white man. Maria thats a good point. You find talent you need in todays environment . He talk about h1b visas all the time and the efforts that President Trump has been making in terms of trade and immigration changes. Can you find the people that you need to work or do you feel like like. Never enough people, great people for us to hire thats either because of things like h1b problems are primarily because there were so many Great Companies that are looking to hire the same kinds of people and. Barrel for 4000 companies so the thought that we can hire everybody out there is impossible. Discrimination gender discrimination plays a role as well. The 70 female work force its difficult for us to hire engineers because 95 of them are male and get them the opportunity and what we are doing and show them the data like big business is one thing and to me its a great thing but its more of an uphill battle for me as well. Do you think thats because theres a lack of understanding, sympathy empathy . Internet the skill sets to understand the problems they are solving for consumers. Its just not one of them. Its fine but they are 50 50 there would be a much easier way to do that. I think in the u. S. We are 46 54 male female for the whole company. We over index gender diversity and marketing h. R. Finance legal and engineering remains a difficult thing but there are other areas of diversity. Its not just gender. The africanamericans and hispanics because the u. S. Population we like to represent the u. S. Population which is younger students coming up in trying to get through college. But as it relates to regulation and visas and those things the fact of the matter is the more talented people we can bring into this country that want to build this economy as opposed to competing with this company the better off we are. In terms of diversity it gets brought up in triggers a lot of people. It happens at our company as well. We embrace it because we believe that diversity contributes to independence of thought and independence of luck contributes to creativity and creativity contributes to innovation. Cadre steps out of the traditional line of thinking was and says this is not how Real Estate Investment should work and our team did the same thing that i think its an existential need to have diversity so we all continue to innovate. Theres a ton of talent here in the u. S. That i believe we still can bring into the. Brit makes a point. Half of the population are women and 55 of College Graduates are women and 30 of our population are hispanic. You can believe what you want to believe that if you cant innovate and relate and communicate to these folks you arent going to have a successful business. Maria do you all expect to be private in the next couple of years or are you looking for a Public Offering sooner rather than later . We are planning to stay private. We have probably raised 45 million total because we dont want to raise that much more. Mary ann maria this is a decision you made. Up one day we want to go public thats great otherwise we can stay small meaning like having raise a lot of money. Who knows whats going to happen . I want to be in control of destiny and second thing is 1999 it took four years for a company to go public. Now the average time is 11 years we are a 5yearold rand. The average Public Company of a ceo is 24 months. I think in our world when we think about the businesses we are still in the early stages literally and figuratively. Maybe an analogy to contextualize where we are in our journey we wanted to take an offline experience of Real Estate Investing and make an on line. We still have multiple industries and multiple products to build. Maria a great conversation great to have you all here. Thank you very much. Dont go anywhere more wall traffic sounds con artists.

[ woman vocalizing ] thanks for joining us. Im bob massi. Frequent viewers of this program have seen me highlight some of the amazing work done by the charity building homes for heroes. Theyre a National Nonprofit that builds or modifies beautiful mortgagefree homes and gifts them to injured veterans and their families. Well gift a home this year every 10 days. It started in 2006 by businessman andy pujol. Building homes for heroes is my way to serve our country, to serve the United States of america. But the story of how the group came to be is what brings me here to tucson, arizona. In 2003, Army Sergeant mary herrera was a military Police Officer serving near fallujah, iraq. She was working as the gunner on the lead humvee of a convoy when, suddenly, they were ambushed. I see two guys up on the bridge. By the time i looked up, we were already getting hit. Wow. Mary was immediately hit in the arm by ak47 fire. I immediately start to suppress fire with with the machine gun. And i got hit the first time on my upper right bicep. I could still use my arm. I could still suppress fire. So its still functional at that point. It was still functional. It was still functional at that point. Now, im holding the rifle and firing. And all of a sudden, my right hand falls to my left. All functions gone . All functions gone. The only thing attaching my hand to my arm was skin. My vehicle commander looks at me. And the look on his face told me that the arm was gone. Wasnt good. Yeah. Yeah, it wasnt good. She lost sensation in her arm. And the doctors said she probably would lose it completely. The first thing that i heard was shes alive and shes gonna make it. But, uh, shes being seen by the doctors and the surgeons and everything. How many surgeries did you have . Ive had, uh, 23 surgeries. Is there any other future surgeries you need . Oh, absolutely. Mary recovered at Brooke Army Medical center and, through some fellow injured soldiers, met andy pujol. Thats when andy, you know, decided that it would be a good idea to be able to give back to those who had given us so much and, you know, give em a home. We made a promise to gift homes to veterans. When he launched the charity, mary acted as an unofficial spokesperson. She jumped onboard. She helped from day one. She joined in every effort, every endeavor. I was so proud of her because she wanted to help others like her. And that really helped her, too. And i wanted to help her from day one, but she guided me to help others. Every veteran who receives a home from building homes for heroes, she has her name on it. Theres a place in every single home where marys heart is. She never asked for anything for herself. But andy always wanted to give her a home. Andy says to me, mary, um, i want you to be one of our home recipients. And he announced it during the gala at the golf house. He has a tendency to do those things, doesnt he . He likes to surprise. Hes all about surprising. She just kinda laughed and chuckled and and said, no. No, no, no. But i know a really good veteran that needs a home. And that was always the answer. She always had another veteran that needed our help, that needed a home. I was like, no, no. Im not with building homes for heroes, you know, to receive anything. Im just here to push the the gifts out. Right . But andy finally convinced her. You cant argue with andy when andys made up his mind. So, you know, here we are now, standing in this beautiful home. Its been nothing less than a godsend. Its the absolute American Dream. We have received this beautiful, wonderful opportunity from chase. Chase donated a formerly foreclosed home, which was completely gutted and renovated. Building homes for heroes was able to make this home fit my needs as far as my injury, where my injury might be 10 years from now, whether or not i still have my arm. The floors, you know, they were porcelain or ceramic, very slippery. Because of my injury, im not as steady on my feet. So i lose my balance. We ripped out the ceramic flooring. Building homes for heroes asked me what i wanted in the kitchen because i might not keep my arm forever. So by putting these, um, handles that are easy for me to grab with one hand, doing the soft close, the open and soft close. Um, they also did, uh, one of these here where i can just pull it down with one arm and pull it back up. Very functional for you. Right. Mmhmm. The master bathroom is probably the main thing. Building homes for heroes gutted the whole bathroom, redid it. And its a therapeutic tub. I can see the jets, huh . The jets. This is like a jacuzzi. Yeah. And you can change the pressure. How does that help the injury youve sustained . Well, it relaxes the nerves that have been tensed up throughout the day. Of course. Its a lot better to take a bath than to take a pain med. No question. Building homes for heroes they never consider the work to be truly done. Now, its years later. They are still improving marys home, completely overhauling landscaping and the backyard. We took out about 175 tons of dirt and grass and debris from the backyard. My overall goal was to make sure she had a beautiful backyard that she was able to maintain with no problem. Theyve redone the whole backyard and front yard, made it so functional for the kids. Theyve done a remarkable job. She hasnt seen andy in years. But we decided to bring him out to arizona with us for a little surprise. Andy pujol. Yes. What does he mean to you . Hes nothing less than a Family Member to me. Hes been a great father figure for me. [ gasps ] andy [ laughs ] andy. Hello, beautiful. Andy. [ indistinct conversation ] yeah, im gonna. Oh, i love you. When you look back, as tragic as it was, its a blessing that youre here. It is. And its the best thing that ever happened to me. In what way . You know, serving in iraq and coming back with the injuries, it opened me up to a whole different perspective of life. And the best part about it is we need americans like andy pujol. Oh, what a wonderful surprise, andy. I love you so much. I missed you. Its the best way to teach your children to serve others. Mmhmm. Its a good idea. Good perspective on it. Its a great yeah. Its a great way for them to grow up and know that the american people, you know, made this happen for you, you know. So its your turn to turn around and serve others. Mary allowed us the opportunity. And weve all heard of the movie pay it forward. And mary has paid it forward 1,000 times over. When we come back, to rent or buy. Its a question millions face every day. Ill give you the information you need to know before you decide, up next. [ woman vocalizing ] dont let dust and allergens get between you and lifes beautiful moments. Flonase outperforms the 1 nondrowsy allergy pill. It helps block 6 key inflammatory substances that cause symptoms. Pills block one and 6 is greater than 1. Flonase changes everything. Welcome back. Im bob massi, the property man. For decades, the American Dream was Home Ownership. Aint it good to come home over the years, the amount of people owning homes steadily grew. That is, until the housing collapse and the foreclosure crisis began reversing that trend. There were a lot of people where were forced into rentals because they were not able to make their mortgage payments anymore. Every day, more than 2,600 new renters enter the market. So what happens . Rental inventory gets squeezed, and rents increase across the country. A lot of new homeowners especially are paying extraordinary amounts of rent. So now the tide may be about to turn again. Were seeing individuals that had to rent starting to come back into the marketplace to purchase. How do you know if you should rent or buy . Like any large financial decision in your life, i think that requires a lot of thought, uh, a lot of planning, and a lot of consultation. First of all, you have to really evaluate your situation to see where you do stand financially. Getting with that mortgage person early on is is very important. They can look at your credit scores. They can look at, um, you know, your history of income. Take the time to do a buyversusrent comparison, factoring in your specific circumstance. What are your needs for your family, for you . Is it a Good School District . Do you prefer a pool . What do you want out of the home . And then lets talk about what you can afford. Realtor. Com has a rentversusbuy calculation where you can input the location youre looking at, a potential purchase price, and a potential rent. Take care of pregnant wife. Thats you. Chris and kat moved to arizona and decided to look into buying a home. We were kinda looking at both options of renting and buying. What made you decide to buy as opposed to continue to rent . The affordability was almost equivalent to what renting would be here. Except we had more Square Footage and a yard. Their realtor showed them this 1,400squarefoot threebedroom home. We definitely saw it as an an investment, where renting, thats not even an option. Its always just giving out money. Growing up, um, i really, uh, valued my parents and how they they bought a house and just how much it appreciated over time. So what things did you look into financially . In addition to, i mean, the mortgage, this house had an hoa. Homeowners association. Mmhmm. Homeowners association. Remember, Home Ownerships costs are much more than just your mortgage. Youve got also your operational cost. The prices of water and and gas and, um, all those additional things that sometimes are packed into a rental agreement. Even putting aside hoa dues and insurance, theres property taxes, landscaping bills, water, sewer, and utility costs. If its a home that, uh, is not energy efficient, you know, that could be a really large amount that youre paying monthly. What if an appliance breaks . What if, um, you know something needs to be fixed . You do need to have that money kind of set aside for an emergency situation. So all of that needs to be factored in the actual operation of the home. Could you qualify for a mortgage even if you want one . Well, sometimes firsttime buyers have trouble because theyve only rented before. They might not even have any credit established. There are programs that allow for a nontraditional credit. So we can check things like an electric bill, um, or even a cable bill. If renting is what works for you, theres still a lot to think about before signing on the dotted line of that lease. A lease may not be a mortgage. But remember, it is a contract. And a contract is binding. You wanna have a good understanding of what your Security Deposits are for and what could happen that would make it, um, so that you wouldnt get that money returned. You wanna have a clear understanding, want your lease to spell it out very concisely. Its important money that a lot of times is hard to get back. We will walk through and double check every piece of the property. Go into each room. Check them out. Make sure that everythings in order. Look at the windows and the light switches and the flooring and the walls. The way it looks when you go in, it better look close to that when you leave. If it doesnt, that Security Deposit were talking about, youre never gonna get it back. When it comes down to it, deciding to rent or buy is a very personal decision that you have to make based on the specifics of your own situation. So do your research before you make your move. Up next, as the property man rolls along, well go inside this magnificent estate. You dont want to miss it. [ woman vocalizing ] your body was made for Better Things than rheumatoid arthritis.

I wanted a tour. So i turned to andrew beardsley, an agent with silverleaf realty. So what makes this house so special . Its twofold. I think the location, northern scottsdale, a part of the dc ranch master planned community, close proximity to the Silverleaf Club and spa, and then, really, the overall design style. Its a very clean, formal mediterranean look. Mmhmm. And really get a sense for big, open spaces, 11foot doors, 15footplus ceilings. I mean, they really wanted to open this up to to show the grandeur. A lot of different styles could go in this home. If you wanna be a little more contemporary. You can. If you wanna feel a little more formal, like they have it set up now, it really can lend itself to a lot of different styles that people have. No expense was spared with the finishes. Marble flooring, european oak, limestone, and marble countertops. You really see the care that was placed into the finishes, the furnishings. The topline appliances were not just bought and placed here. They were built into the custom cabinetry. Theyve got the wolf and subzero appliance package. You might not even tell, but it blends in like a nice piece that you would buy. Its like a piece of furniture. It absolutely is. You would never know. And, you know, the furniture, you know, i mean, its elegant. But its simple. Right. You know, it fits the home and the character of the home and the whole ambiance of the home. And you can see how you would use this as a family. Absolutely. Have breakfast here. Sit at the breakfast bar. Absolutely. Now were into the master bedroom area. We are in the master suite, yes. You can see european oak wood floors, the very clean detail throughout, the sitting room behind us. You really have your own dream space back here. And with a view of where we, you know, the backyard, the guest house. You wake up to the best view in the house. Yeah. Youve got the private patio behind me that you can access. Really, it would be hard to leave this space. Lets go look at the bath area. Oh, please. The marble flooring, his and hers sides. This brings a whole new definition to a closet, okay . Yes, it does. Uh, this wouldnt be his closet. This is a room. This is a bedroom. This could be multiple bedrooms, actually. Absolutely. Youve got the full gym for the fitness buffs. One thing i can say about scottsdale, everybody seems to be fit. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. This is a room you could stay fit in, for sure. Everywhere you go in this house, you are drawn to the Natural Light and beauty from the outside spilling in. The 7,600squarefoot formal mediterranean home sits on a lush estate hidden in the desert with just under 1 3 4 acres. So lets go take a look outside, because when i came through the front door, thats breathtaking. Oh, yeah. Everything in the home leads to the outside. Im tellin you, it reminds me of the godfather. 1. 7 acres out here, looking straight out to the Mcdowell Mountain preserve, unobstructed views. It just feels very private back here. This is your own private desert oasis, very lush. Everything inside is leading you to the outside. And nobody ever believes that a home like this would ever exist in the desert. I mean, really. And i dont blame em. The house features a truly relaxing oasis with a pool and spa and separate 516squarefoot guest house. I mean, i was inside the casita. I could live there and never leave. Youve got the lap pool. Absolutely. I mean, it has its own kitchen. Its selfcontained all the way around. Its got its own kitchen. Were gettin ready to walk past the the private spa over here. You can access it off of the patio off the master suite. Yeah. The detail in the landscaping and the landscape architecture, and it really sets itself apart. Other side, youve got the bocce court. So its an entertainers dream. But its also a great family home. Selfcontained. You dont have to leave. No. You really dont. If you dont wanna leave, you dont have to leave. When you look at this home and you see what comes with it and the ambiance that you create, almost like youre alone. Absolutely. When i heard the price, im not saying that thats not a lot of money.
