Sim Manocha is Managing Partner at Avina Capital (avinacapital.ca) - a leading financier in commercial real estate & private placement.  Sim has been involved with the financing of close to $1BN of real estate in his career, with some notable transactions in the hospitality space. As such, I felt he was uniquely qualified to speak about the impact of Covid-19 on the hospitality space, specifically pertaining to real estate finance. We specifically discuss how hospitality owners and developers have been impacted, as well as strategies to mitigate the spread of Covid-19's economic risk among other asset classes. We also touch on government policy and the impact it's had on mitigating the impact of coronavirus on the real estate economy and the housing supply-chain.

Mack and I met in University while doing our B.Comms together at Guelph. Mack now works in the commercial lending space, and is one of the most active responders to my content about real estate - so I've been meaning to speak with him for a while. I'm always excited to hear what Mack has to say, so I wasn't really surprised by the impressive insight he provided about changes in the lending space. I hope you enjoy it and find it valuable as well.

Brett and I met at the beginning of his career through a mutual friend. It's been amazing to watch him grow from an ambitious new agent with a creative marketing approach. He is now a top-producing agent with a focus on driving-home value for his existing clients. I hope you enjoy the podcast, which is a sort of refreshing casual banter in such a serious time. Brett and I talk about the moral and ethical implications of showing properties during Covid-19, something that Slavens & Associates has been celebrated for taking seriously. We also talk about our projections, representing our clients properly, and what else we're doing to keep busy and successful during this time.

Covid-eo Chats: a concept we're introducing a spatial-distancing friendly podcast for the duration of the Covid19 crisis. Today I spoke with Jedd Smith, a colleague from Sudbury, Ontario. Jedd is an FEI level course designer, which makes him a really well connected person in the equine space. Jedd provides a lot of insight on the equine world, capital flows within that type of clientele, as well as his first-hand knowledge of the Northern Ontario real estate markets, which have been heating up from spillover in capital flows in the GTA. We also spoke about what we're doing in the time of covid-19, and how things have changed within the real estate market for us as a result of coronavirus.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Tyler Blakeley who works in automated valuation modelling (AVM) for Brookfield RPS - Real Property Solutions.  Tyler and I speak a lot about the role that data has in the analysis of real estate. We dive into machine learning and the interpretation of real estate as an information system, and the impact that different layers of technology will have on the future of real estate.
