Craft Capital Investments is in the trenches. We are touring properties. We are submitting Letters of Intent (LOIs). We are analyzing local markets and comparable properties (Comps). Today, we had a productive tour in DFW with Gabriel Craft and our trusted commercial real estate (CRE) broker. Why does this matter? Because at Craft Capital Investments: - We believe in doing the work. - Great deals don’t find you—you find them. We don’t settle. - Most deals don’t pass our rigorous screening because we prioritize quality over quantity. We’re invested with you. We have our own capital and reputation on the line. Our underwriting speaks for itself. If the math doesn’t work, we walk away. Math don't lie! If the deal doesn’t meet our standards, we pass. We treat every investment like our own—because it is. ----- Want to know more about alternative asset and apartment investing?

How the Texas Stock Exchange could reshape Dallas and the national stock market: "On top of cementing Dallas’ reputation as the financial capital of the south, some believe it could drive more company relocations and jobs to the city and state. But questions remain as to whether it can be an effective competitor to institutional powers like the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ." "Still, it’s a moment that most experts believe will positively impact Dallas if Texas Stock Exchange CEO James Lee is able to get his registration for it approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. He’s eyeing for the exchange to make its first listings in early 2026." "Though he said he won’t be listing any of his companies on the exchange, Dallas billionaire and Dallas Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban is one of many who’s in favor of it." “I think it’s an amazing and smart idea. It would be great for Dallas,” Cuban said in an email to The Dallas Morning News. “Not just the jobs, but the improvement on digital infrastructure required, the focus on Dallas-based companies it would bring, and maybe most importantly, it would be a foundation for people to get a better financial education. It would certainly be a place schools took kids, even if it’s mostly just servers. I’m a huge fan of the concept." "If Dallas culturally shifts to become more like New York or Chicago, financial meccas, as a result of the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE), experts predict more outside companies will eye Texas as a viable state for its headquarters or office spaces, said Amirhossein Fard, assistant professor of finance at the University of North Texas." “I think this could set up Dallas as a more attractive opportunity for local firms, especially in financial or legal consulting sectors that may be closely related to the stock exchange,” he said. “We’re already seeing it now with the new Goldman Sachs campus, but you can expect this to surge high profile financial events and conferences, and could spur new developments. But that could also drive property values higher” "Dallas is already an important financial capital in the U.S. It has a Federal Reserve Bank, has become the home of 24 Fortune 500 companies and is welcoming dozens of new, wealthy residents." #Dallas #Banking #Texas #EconomicGrowth

As a result of increased compliance costs associated with traditional stock exchanges, Citadel Securities & #Blackrock are backing a group that is determined to create a new national stock exchange: Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE). The exchange seeks to capitalize on Texas' favorable regulatory environment & the state's growing stature as a regional financial hub. Trading on the #TXSE is scheduled to begin sometime next year. https://loom.ly/1w2IUdM

🔥🔥🔥 The evidence is clear: Dallas's transformation into a major #FinancialHub is a force to be reckoned with! From The Dallas Morning News: "A decades-long Dallas dream may soon be realized. Texas is looking to welcome its first national stock exchange...After raising approximately $120 million from dozens of individual investors and big-time firms like BlackRock and Citadel Securities, Texan James H Lee is starting the Texas Stock Exchange as its CEO. On his current timetable, he hopes it will make its first trade in late 2025 and put up its first listings in early 2026." The Texas Stock Exchange plans to: - File registration documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission later this year - Begin facilitating trades in 2025 - Host its first listing in 2026 This development is expected to: - Attract more financial institutions, investment firms, and tech companies to the city - Cement Dallas's position as a talent hub for finance professionals Another interesting thing to highlight: "Though it won’t have a physical trading floor, the exchange will be headquartered and have executive offices in Dallas along with utilizing a Dallas data center. The region is home to approximately 150 data centers which produce 650 megawatts of power, according to Real Assets Adviser magazine." As Dallas continues to emerge as a major financial force, we can expect even more innovation, growth, and opportunities to arise.

📈 Economics 101: Understanding Supply and Demand 📉 Supply and demand are the fundamental forces driving prices in the market. In simple terms, when supply increases and demand remains constant, prices typically decrease. Conversely, when demand increases and supply remains constant, prices tend to rise. Check out the article below from #realpage to visualize this concept in action! As you will see, the increase in supply doesn’t match the increase in demand, causing a divergence in price, hence a lowering of price to stay competetive. 🔍 For more insights on economics and market trends, follow us!
