Send us Fan Mail Please Support the NEREJ/NYREJ Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1899808/support Rick Kaplan host of the NEREJ/NYREJ podcast interviews Alex Taylor of CommercializeIQ. www.commercializeIQ Commercial real estate is entering a period where AI and technology are going to materially change how people work, make decisions, and operate portfolios, but I think a lot of the conversation is still either too theoretical or too focused on the technology itself. I’d like to have a practical discussion about what is actually changing inside CRE, where AI is useful today, where the hype gets ahead of reality, and how owners, operators, developers, retailers, and asset managers should be thinking about the next several years. There is a much bigger conversation here than any one product or platform. I’ve spent 15+ years at the intersection of commercial real estate and technology. I’ve built and scaled multiple multi-million-dollar PropTech companies, had three successful startup exits, and I’m now in my fourth founder/co-founder seat. What makes my perspective a little different is that I’m not coming at CRE as a software outsider. I’ve also been a commercial real estate owner, investor, developer, and operator. I’ve sat on both sides of the table, building technology for the industry while also living the operational problems that technology is supposed to solve. Support the show

My work includes audit defense, disputes, appeals, litigation, nexus and multi-state compliance issues. I regularly work with businesses facing state revenue agencies and help them understand their exposure, respond strategically and develop more defensible processes going forward. My experience gives me a firsthand perspective on the mistakes businesses commonly make, how tax issues escalate and the practical steps organizations can take to reduce risk. Jerry discusses the sales tax issues that commercial real estate operators, property-related businesses and companies operating across multiple states should have on their radar. Topics could include how sales tax nexus is changing, common compliance mistakes, what can trigger an audit, what actually happens once a state revenue agency begins asking questions and how businesses can prepare before they find themselves in a costly dispute. I can also share practical examples of where businesses tend to get caught off guard and what a more proactive, defensible approach to sales tax looks like. Support the show

Sound is often an 'after-thought' in AEC design, which can often lead to costly over-runs. Andy enjoys translating technical topics such as acoustics, sound isolation, and environmental noise control into practical insights for architects, owners, and developers. Andy will be discussing acoustics and noise & vibration control, perhaps in a general way, such as 'how sound impacts the success of buildings and communities' - or tailored to more specific sub-topics if desired.

My book, Above Asking: Daily Mindwork for Real Estate Professionals, is built around what I call agent wholeness and reflective practice: learning to build a successful career without being trapped in the continual search for more transactions, more recognition, more leads and more validation.

Send us Fan Mail Rick Kaplan host of the nEREJ/NYREJ Podcast interviews George Hanna of Smart Income Lifestyle Inc. SmartincomeLifestyle.com George discuss how most business owners don't actually own a business — they own a job with overhead. I built my career around fixing that. My mission is to build businesses that outgrow their owners. I developed Business Ascension™, a discipline for transforming owner-dependent companies into scalable, asset-based enterprises — ones capable of growing, transferring, and creating value beyond the founder. Through my work, I identified what I call Execution Drift™ — the hidden, often invisible gap between what should happen in a business and what actually happens day to day. Left unaddressed, this drift is what quietly caps growth and traps owners in their own operations. The solution I created to close that gap is Execution Certainty™ — the ability for a business to execute consistently, predictably, and profitably, without the owner needing to be at the center of everything. I install this through a proprietary framework I developed called the S.A.P.E. Method™: Systemize — turn tribal knowledge into repeatable process Assetize — convert the business itself into a transferable asset Profitize — engineer profitability that doesn't rely on owner hustle Enterprise — build the structure of a true, standalone enterprise The result for the businesses I work with: companies that no longer depend on their owner for growth, profitability, or execution — freeing the owner and multiplying the value of what they built. My work comes down to three things: Build value. Multiply value. Preserve value. Support the show
