Speaker 7: you so much for this moment, right, this is so

95
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 7: important for us to just share our experiences and making

96
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 7: the decision to go to Dubai didn't start twenty twenty

97
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 7: one when I first visited Dubai. Making the decision to

98
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 7: go international actually started when I started my real estate brokerage.

99
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 7: So the name of my company is Williams and Code

100
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 7: International Realty. So I had vision before hiring my very

101
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 7: first agent. I always knew I wanted to have a

102
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 7: global brand, and so I gave myself a five year

103
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 7: plan that I was gonna say, Okay, in five years,

104
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 7: I'm gonna start my first international brokerage. But initially I

105
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 7: was thinking I would do something within like a four

106
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 7: hour flight of Atlanta, something that was same day, okay,

107
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 7: go in and out.

108
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 2: But then when I.

109
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 7: Visited Dubai in twenty twenty one, again attending Steve Harvey's gala.

110
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 7: That was the first year that they hosted it. So

111
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,679
Speaker 7: shout out to Paige for the invite. I was actually

112
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 7: in South Africa and she was like, you need to

113
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 7: come to Dubai and come to this gala. I was

114
00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 7: having my first international engagement. Then flew over absolutely loved it.

115
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 7: So it was cool to be able to hang out

116
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 7: with celebrities for the weekend. But what stood out so

117
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 7: me most was the cranes in the sky. I was like, whoa,

118
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 7: this city is an emerging market, Like what is going on?

119
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 7: There are so many buildings being built, and I really

120
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 7: evaluated what they've been able to do in the last

121
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 7: fifty years. As the UAE, they came together fifty years

122
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 7: ago and said, look, we want to create this dynamite

123
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 7: environment for tourists, for everything. If you think about it,

124
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 7: they literally built everything that you described in a desert

125
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 7: and so I'm just like, I need to be a

126
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 7: part of this growth. Where are the American realtors. What's

127
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 7: going on? Who's telling Americans that this is an opportunity

128
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 7: zone for them to invest in. You know, a lot

129
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 7: of times with us, because the US is so far away,

130
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 7: we don't really look outside of the US, and because

131
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 7: we've been so spoiled to be number one for so long,

132
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 7: we're like we're good, We're comfortable. So for me, it

133
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 7: was just like, this is a huge opportunity for me

134
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 7: to be the liaison between the US and the UAE

135
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 7: and the real estate sector. And so I was like,

136
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 7: you know what, let me put a plan in place,

137
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 7: let me see if this is something I want to do.

138
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 7: So I went out about three more times before making

139
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 7: the decision to officially move. The third time I flew

140
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 7: my mother out and I was like, Mom, I just

141
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 7: need you to feel the energy. I just need you

142
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 7: to you know me more than anybody. Do you think

143
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 7: this could be a good decision? And she was like,

144
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 7: I see the vision, go for it. And that was

145
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 7: the final word that I needed to say, you know what,

146
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 7: let's try it. And I'm like, if you're going to

147
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 7: go international, what better place than Dubai.

148
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: It already speaks for you. The luxury is there.

149
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 7: I just need to be there and position myself in

150
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 7: a situation where that already aligns with my brand. I

151
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 7: have proof of concept. It's just about doing what I've

152
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 7: already done in a new place.

153
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 5: So let's talk about that I mean foreign land.

154
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 6: Internationally, you're creating a business, So talk about what that

155
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 6: was like going through the process of creating it. Because here,

156
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 6: when we think about creating business, we think LLC, we

157
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 6: got to get attorney, we got to get things trademark.

158
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 5: What was that process like doing it in Dubai?

159
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 6: And then I guess the follow up part is that,

160
00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 6: I mean, this is a country where the woman role

161
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 6: is a little bit different, So talk about that as well,

162
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 6: or is.

163
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 2: It that's a good question.

164
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 7: So for the first part of your question, as far

165
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 7: as setting up a company and being there, I didn't

166
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 7: want to try to figure things out.

167
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: On my own.

168
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 7: I'm one of those people that I'm gonna pay for information,

169
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 7: you know. So I partner with a company that could

170
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 7: help actually help me to start my business. So instead

171
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 7: of going on Google and trying to piece together the

172
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 7: situation step by step by step, I actually hired a

173
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 7: company that helped to put me through that process. So

174
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 7: I said, hey, this is my visions, this is what

175
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 7: I want to do. I want to start a company.

176
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 7: So just to give you an idea of how the

177
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 7: process works, you partner with the company in the local

178
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 7: area of Dubai, you decide if you want to be

179
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 7: in a free zone on the mainland area. The mainland

180
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 7: is obviously going to give you more rights to be

181
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 7: able to sell and do what you need to do

182
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 7: for the full city, and then free zone has certain pockets,

183
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 7: so they set my company up and you pay per

184
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 7: activity that you want to do. So because I have

185
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 7: a real estate company, I actually have to pay for leasing,

186
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 7: I have to pay for sales, I have to pay

187
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 7: for commercial, So you identify kind of what activities you

188
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 7: want to have within your licensing. The other thing that's

189
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,719
Speaker 7: unique about the Dubai real estate market when it comes

190
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 7: to like starting a business and getting residency is that

191
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 7: they actually require a medical exam, so you also have

192
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 7: to take a medical exam to make sure that you

193
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 7: don't have any infectious diseases because they will decline your application.

194
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: So that to me is you know, that's different, right.

195
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 7: A lot of countries don't think that far ahead, but

196
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 7: they're trying to preserve the lifestyle of what they have developed,

197
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 7: so that's another part of it. And then obviously you

198
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 7: get your Emirates ID, which is very very important. You

199
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 7: can't move around without your emmirates. Ideas like your rights

200
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 7: of passage. Like everything that you do is side to

201
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 7: that emmorates ID. And it's so efficient, right because it's

202
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 7: your licenses side to it, your medical history is side

203
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 7: to it, your address, everything that you need to get to,

204
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 7: whatever door you need to go into is on that

205
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 7: Emirates ID.

206
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 2: So it's a really efficient system. I like the way

207
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 2: they do things.

208
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 4: We met a few people from New York when we

209
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 4: were there that moved from New York to Dubai, and

210
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 4: they were saying how much they loved it, how peaceful

211
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 4: it was, how yeah, you know, it was just a

212
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 4: change of scenery that they needed.

213
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, they don't.

214
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 4: They didn't really have any plans on coming back to America,

215
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 4: like you know, come back to visit family stuff like that. Yes,

216
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 4: it was like it just doesn't make sense to go

217
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 4: to hassle and bassle, the hassle of living in America,

218
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 4: especially like you know, a city like New York City

219
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 4: when you can just live in the UAE with a

220
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 4: much better quality of life. Yes, so all right, so

221
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 4: you go you get all of this.

222
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 5: Before we go there. Yeah, yeah, because I mean what

223
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 5: you're saying is true, right, maybe it's not different. So

224
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 5: like that's even interesting.

225
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 4: Why did you say, why'd you say it different? Because

226
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 4: this is no I'm acting, Troy.

227
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 5: Why am I saying it's different?

228
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean stereotypically, right, when we it's a predominant

229
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 6: Muslim country, we know that, and the role of and

230
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 6: countries with Muslim populations, we see that the woman's role

231
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 6: is a little bit different.

232
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 5: Than the American society.

233
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 6: And so I'm thinking of it as American woman going

234
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 6: into a Muslim populated country. Whether there's some obstacles where

235
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 6: the different type of like sipulations that you had to

236
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 6: do to get into business.

237
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 4: But even that, but that's not necessarily But this is

238
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 4: an important stereotype. Yeah, because it's not necessarily true though, right,

239
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 4: because there's so many different countries. Every country has different cultures.

240
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 4: America has a different culture, right, So it's like, all right,

241
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 4: if you go to a country like Nigeria, that's going

242
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 4: to be different in a country like Indonesia, which is

243
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 4: going to be different than a country like Saudi Arabia,

244
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 4: or different than a country like UAE. So I think

245
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 4: that it's an important misconception because there's women, there's women

246
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 4: rights issues in America. If you think about it like

247
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 4: there's women disparities where we live. Absolutely, So even that

248
00:11:52,520 --> 00:12:00,319
Speaker 4: conversation might be not totally true, but I think that

249
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 4: it's important to address that because it's like people have

250
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 4: misconceptions which can lead people not to go or can

251
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 4: lead people to have already a barrier that's built up,

252
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 4: but it everywhere has different cultures. Yes, it's very important

253
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 4: to respect the culture that you're in, including American culture.

254
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 4: American culture is different, right, Like people come to America,

255
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 4: they respect the American culture.

256
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 6: So yeah, what's your experiences that stereotypically yes.

257
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, no.

258
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 7: I think that was actually a great response to that,

259
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 7: because there are a lot of stereotypes and misconceptions that

260
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 7: we've been taught over time. And I would say this

261
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 7: is not necessarily just the stereotypes. It's the history, right,

262
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 7: So part of it is true based on history. However,

263
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 7: now where we are in twenty twenty three, a lot

264
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 7: of that has been lifted, a lot of those rules

265
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 7: and laws have been changed. So that's the beautiful part

266
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 7: about being in an emerging market. I've now been able

267
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 7: to enter into a market in a time where they

268
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 7: are willing to be more open and embrace women in business.

269
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 2: So it's a beautiful time for me.

270
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 7: And one of the things is, like, as you mentioned,

271
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 7: because there's disparities all across the world, oftentimes we look

272
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 7: at that as like, oh, I can't do it because

273
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 7: I'm a woman. Maybe I'll just wait, or I need

274
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 7: to have this male partner. I need to do this

275
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 7: for me. My perspective is how do I change this

276
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 7: complete disadvantage into a usp and by doing that, going

277
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 7: into a market or an area where women are still

278
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 7: learning their voice, they're still trying to figure things out,

279
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 7: whereas in America a lot more women have, like you know,

280
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 7: there's women empowerment and they're pushing and there are a lot

281
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 7: of women owned businesses here in the US, versus going

282
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 7: into a market where they're still trying to figure it out.

283
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 2: So what does that mean for me?

284
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 7: Now I get to have a greater opportunity to stand

285
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 7: out as a woman in business, to say, hey, let

286
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 7: me show you all, let me be a pioneer in

287
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 7: the space, Let me teach you guys how to conduct business,

288
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 7: how to do business. Because now the women in those

289
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 7: areas are starting to see themselves more as entrepreneurs and

290
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 7: more as business women. So now I've really been able

291
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 7: to position myself, if you will, as a thought leader,

292
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 7: as a business woman in a region.

293
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: I've become the authority figure, you know.

294
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 7: And that was another reason that I decided to relocate

295
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 7: from Atlanta, is because I was really starting to feel

296
00:13:59,520 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 7: like I.

297
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 2: Outruwing my environment.

298
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 7: You know, It's just like a shark in a tank,

299
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 7: right the shark is only going to grow as large

300
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 7: as the tank will allow. But if you put that

301
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 7: same shark in the ocean, it'll grow to be over

302
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 7: eight feet tall. And I was feeling like, you know,

303
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 7: we put so much emphasis on toxic relationships. We'll say, oh,

304
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 7: this man did this to me, this woman did this

305
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 7: to me, But what do we really think about how

306
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 7: toxic sometimes our environment is to our growth. And so

307
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 7: when I realized like I wasn't waking up feeling inspired.

308
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 7: I'm going to the events, I'm seeing everybody that I

309
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 7: always know, I was ready to shape things up. It's

310
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 7: time to see new things, meet new people, have a

311
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 7: more diverse clientele base, have a more diverse friend group.

312
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 7: You know, Dubai is in the center of the world.

313
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 7: I'm meeting people from every different part of you know,

314
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 7: walk of life, and so I think people need to

315
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 7: give more credence to their environment as well.

316
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 4: So let's talk about you talk about being a woman. Yeah,

317
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 4: so it hasn't been a hurdle for you.

318
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 7: It has not been a hurdle from the degree of

319
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 7: it's impossible, because I think it's been painted as if

320
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 7: like it can't be done. You can't wear this, you

321
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 7: can't do this, you can't say this. But I will

322
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 7: say that there's still like, you know, just some little residue,

323
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 7: you know, from what it is, because it's still growing.

324
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: So you still have to respect the culture.

325
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 7: For example, this isn't something that I would wear into

326
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 7: a government building for you know, you're gonna cover up,

327
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 7: You're gonna make sure that you are respectful. And I

328
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 7: don't have a problem with it. Another barrier, let's have

329
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 7: some transparency. Another barrier that I did experience as a

330
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 7: woman was that I'm a single mother. And so because

331
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 7: I've never been married and I've never been divorced, I

332
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 7: couldn't provide a birth certificate, a marriage certificate, or a

333
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 7: divorced certificate. And that's one of the prerequisites for your

334
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 7: child to get a visa. And so because I couldn't

335
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 7: provide those documents. I experienced some hurdles, some additional fees,

336
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 7: you know, in getting his visa, so it actually kind

337
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 7: of held him up from being able to start school.

338
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 2: So although it was frustrating for.

339
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 7: Me, it was also like Denise, you have to give

340
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 7: credence to the culture. That's not how things run here.

341
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 7: They admire families, they push families. You know, the men

342
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 7: have more rights to the children. In this part of

343
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 7: the world, for example, a lot of women won't get

344
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 7: it worse because they know that their husbands can get

345
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 7: the kids, you know. So things are different. It's just

346
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 7: about respect and then you take the good with the bad.

347
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 4: I think that it's an important conversation to have because

348
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 4: as Americans, we kind of have a superiority complex, yes,

349
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 4: where we think that how we do things is how

350
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 4: everybody should do things, and if somebody doesn't do things

351
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 4: the way that we do things, then they're uncivilized or

352
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 4: their savages or their backwards and it's not necessarily true.

353
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 4: It's just a different culture. I remember even they were

354
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 4: talking to the president of I believe Kenya. I don't

355
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 4: want to get the country wrong, but it was a

356
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 4: country in East Africa, I believe, and they have some

357
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 4: rules on gay marriage. It's not a loud earners.

358
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 2: What's going on?

359
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 8: Listen, Eylu is relaunching, revamping, retooling. That's why we're creating

360
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 8: a new educational experience that's more expensive, telling what we got.

361
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 4: Yes twenty three, he's got a lot. It's still a

362
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 4: lot playing for you guys. So you know that Eylu

363
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 4: already includes monthly financial planning calls with Me, book club

364
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 4: calls with Troy, real estate calls with MG the Mortgage Guy,

365
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 4: access to the Home Buying Blueprint Volume one and Volume two.

366
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 4: Part of the revamp will include twenty seven local chapters

367
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:24,439
Speaker 4: from across the United States, live interactive teaching, hands on

368
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 4: not just pre recorded videos, plus fifteen brand new curriculums.

369
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 5: The biggest just got bigger.

370
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 9: Head over to eyl university dot com. That's EYL. You

371
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 9: n I V E R s I T Y dot com.

372
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 3: See it there.

373
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 4: So the guy from Britain, I think it might have

374
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 4: been Paris Morrison, one of these guys from Britain. They

375
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 4: were saying that, you know, it's a backwards way of

376
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 4: thinking and different things that nature, and he was like,

377
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 4: well you're trying to force your value system on us

378
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 4: when we're a country that's just fifty years old. Like

379
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 4: when you're country was fifty years old, you had all

380
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 4: kinds of child labor laws and all kinds of issues

381
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 4: that you have been still to this day fully dealt

382
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 4: with racism, different things in that nature. So it's like

383
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 4: you're trying to impose a value system on us, where

384
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 4: just let us get to that point if we get

385
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 4: to that point, right, or just respect it and don't come.

386
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 4: But I think that that's something that's extremely important for

387
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,159
Speaker 4: Americans to understand, Like when you go to somebody else's home,

388
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 4: it's not like to say, like I'm going to impose

389
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 4: my will on your culture. Yes, and that's even something

390
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 4: that Swiss Beast told us. But he was like, you know,

391
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 4: talking about Saudi Arabia, and you know he's talking about money,

392
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 4: and he was like, the cheapest thing you can do

393
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 4: is ask for money. You know, you think you're getting

394
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 4: over because you're overcharging for a show, and that's not

395
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 4: the best way to go. He's like, if it was

396
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 4: up to me, I do a show for free because

397
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 4: I understand the long game. Like I'm trying to like

398
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 4: it's not about me trying to, you know, beat you

399
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 4: over the head and get a quick lick. He's like,

400
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 4: we gotta stop thinking about that, Like, it's about really

401
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,719
Speaker 4: experiencing the culture, learning the culture, seeing how you can

402
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 4: fit in, how you can add value to the culture,

403
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 4: as opposed to just coming over with a that's really

404
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 4: like a European mindset of being a conqueror. Yes, and

405
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 4: that's something that I think, you know, you have to

406
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 4: when you go to different parts of the world. You

407
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 4: gotta be diplomatic. You can't come as like this is

408
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 4: how we are coming, yes, and we are gonna impose

409
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 4: our life on you. You cannot because it's not it's

410
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 4: not their way of life.

411
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: No, it's not. No, I couldn't agree with you.

412
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 7: More like going there with an open mind is the

413
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 7: number one thing that you have to do. You cannot

414
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 7: americanize every experience, you know. And that's why even at

415
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 7: the start of this interview, I spoke Arabic, just to

416
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 7: show respect to the culture, to let them know that

417
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 7: I want to even embrace them in on this conversation

418
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 7: because they too want to know about American culture.

419
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: It's a given is to take.

420
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 7: You know, I've learned so much more about family values

421
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 7: and also, you know, just many different things from the culture,

422
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 7: and I think everyone should have and international experience.

423
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 4: Howld is your y'all he's fourteen.

424
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 5: Let's talk about that for soon. Yeah.

425
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 6: So, like when you spoke to your mom and mom said,

426
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 6: I see your vision. What's that conversation that you're having

427
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 6: now with the teenager? Yes, but it's not like we're

428
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 6: transferring to a new school district. We'll transferred. We're going

429
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 6: to a whole other country, different way of I'm assuming

430
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,719
Speaker 6: a different language.

431
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 5: So what was that conversation? How receptive was he to

432
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 5: your vision?

433
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 7: So my son is one of the most understanding children ever,

434
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 7: Like I absolutely love destined shout out to my baby.

435
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 7: So what I did was I actually put this plan

436
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 7: into motion for a year behind the scenes. It's not

437
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 7: something anyone knew about other than my mother and people

438
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 7: that are very close to me. Even he was not

439
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 7: in on that conversation. I waited until about two months

440
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 7: before we actually moved to let him know because I

441
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 7: didn't want to distract his mind. You know, you need

442
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 7: to focus on what's going on right now. But when

443
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 7: I told him, he said, Okay, you know he was

444
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 7: open to it. Fast forward. He is living his best life.

445
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 7: When I tell you, is the man over there. They

446
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 7: love his accent, they love his hair. While we're over

447
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 7: here trying to straighten our hair. They're like, he has

448
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 7: the coolest hair in school. We love the way he talks.

449
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 7: You know, it's just he's embracing it. But what I

450
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 7: love the most, and he even pointed this out to me.

451
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 7: He was like, Mom, you would have never let me

452
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 7: be more.

453
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 2: Be free.

454
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 7: And by what he means by that is he actually

455
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 7: gets to call his own taxis. When he needs to

456
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 7: get his haircut, he'll call a ride and he'll go.

457
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 7: If he needs to go to football practice, then I

458
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 7: can make it. He can call and he can go,

459
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 7: or he can have our driver take him. So we

460
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 7: get to move around in a different way where he

461
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 7: gets to actually be a teenager and walk the streets

462
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 7: and feel relaxed, like the.

463
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 2: Police don't even carry guns over there. Ts.

464
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 7: Yeah, teenagers get to go to the mall and hang

465
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 7: out with their friends and not have the fear of

466
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 7: like you're gonna be stereotyped, that you're gonna walk out

467
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 7: of here and steal something he can actually enjoy life,

468
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 7: and so many of our young men just don't get

469
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 7: to experience that freedom of mindset. He can truly focus

470
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 7: on your schoolwork, enjoying yourself, being safe.

471
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 2: That's it.

472
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 7: You don't have any additional pressures are fears of gangs

473
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:01,959
Speaker 7: and this and that.

474
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.

475
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 7: Every culture has its own different things and ways of living.

476
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 7: But I think that this is one of the most

477
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 7: important decisions I could have made for him, is to

478
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 7: pull him out of this environment, especially as a single mom.

479
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 2: At this stage of his life.

480
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 7: You know, a lot of people may say, oh, I

481
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 7: lived in Germany when I was three or four years old.

482
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 7: That's not going to change the trajectory of your life.

483
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 7: My best my son's best friend is Chinese. I'm like,

484
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 7: you need to stay close to him. Look, he might

485
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 7: be you know, president of China, you know, or inventing something.

486
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 5: You know.

487
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 7: Because what I love the most about this experience for

488
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 7: him is making him take his entrepreneurial journey more seriously

489
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 7: because now he's meeting kids his age that own businesses.

490
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 7: You know, their parents have maids and drivers, and they

491
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 7: living in these huge homes. So it's not just the

492
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 7: exposure he's getting for me now, it's like, oh my

493
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 7: mom is on to something.

494
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 2: You know.

495
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 7: He started his own company, tricky mess dot com where

496
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 7: he's selling graphic T shirts, shoes, and hats.

497
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 2: So I'm very excited for him.

498
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 4: So before I want to get into this investor conversation

499
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 4: before at the last social aspect of it, talks about

500
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 4: being a woman. Yeah, but you also are black? Yes,

501
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 4: black American, So how's that aspect of it as far

502
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 4: as being a black person in Dubai.

503
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 7: I love that question because I get it all the time.

504
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 7: So they kind of characterize and put us all in

505
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 7: a melting pot there. They just assume we're all African.

506
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,400
Speaker 7: The reason being is because of our skin tone. Until

507
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 7: you start speaking, then it's like, oh okay, she may

508
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 7: not be African, but she's somewhere different. Sometimes I get America,

509
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 7: but sometimes I'll get something else. So my point is

510
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 7: there aren't enough Americans on the ground, and that's one

511
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 7: of the reasons why I'm there, is like to spread

512
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 7: the word, like you all, you.

513
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 2: Can come here, you can live here.

514
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 7: They do accept us, they do embrace us, like they

515
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 7: love our accent, they love our culture.

516
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 2: They watch everything that we do.

517
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 7: It's just that they don't have the relationships in real

518
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 7: time to really like say, Okay, that's what an American

519
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 7: looks like. That's what they you know, that's their culture

520
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 7: and that's what they do. So yeah, I love it.

521
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,959
Speaker 2: They love us, So get rid of that mindset that

522
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 2: don't because.

523
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 4: I mean what I'm said, we Steve Harvey is probably

524
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 4: the biggest advocate for him.

525
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, while you were talking, that was the first thing

526
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 6: I was thinking, because he had spoke to us during

527
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 6: his interview and he was like, imagine just waking up

528
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 6: and walking outside and not having any words. There's no crime,

529
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 6: that the feeling, there's no pollution, there's no garbage anywhere. Yes,

530
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 6: there's no homelessness. Everybody's at peace. Imagine what that would

531
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 6: be like. So as you're saying that, he's the first

532
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 6: thing I thought of, and I thought, like, imagine your

533
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 6: fourteen year old son in Atlanta, Yes, coming out of

534
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 6: the environment where those some of those things that happened,

535
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 6: and at peace. The amount of creativity, the freedness of

536
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 6: his thought, what he can be great?

537
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 5: Great?

538
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 6: Now, it just opens up his mind right, just like

539
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 6: the real exposure, This is the real social studies.

540
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 2: This is the real social studies class, you know.

541
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 4: But even our guy Oasis, I'm not pronouncing his name incorrectly,

542
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 4: he's you know him, so yeah, So he was yep, yep, yeah,

543
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 4: Steve Harvey's business partner. So during that interview that Steve

544
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 4: Harvey gave when he was talking about his business partner,

545
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 4: that is so disciplined that praise all the time. That

546
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 4: is like thirty years old. That's who. That's the guy

547
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 4: he was talking about. So when I met him, he's

548
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 4: actually from the Bronx. Originally I didn't know that. So

549
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 4: his family, he's his mom I think, is American black.

550
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 4: His father is from the Middle East, but you know

551
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 4: he looked black and he grew up and in America

552
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 4: and then he moved over there, and I mean he's assimilated.

553
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 2: He killing he is killing it. Everyone knows.

554
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,439
Speaker 7: And that's the other thing too, is like all of

555
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 7: the Americans like we know each other or know of

556
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 7: one another. So it's still a very very unique community

557
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 7: that we're building right now. So I really love the

558
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 7: place and it couldn't been a better time.

559
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 4: He's getting to it.

560
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 5: That's what it.

561
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 6: Said that might have been under that definitely was an understatement.

562
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 6: But it's like even in having conversations while we were there,

563
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 6: yes with a black arians was like, you want to

564
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 6: talk about vision. Everybody has a vision, everybody has a

565
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 6: clear pain. We talk about generational wealth. Their parents also

566
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 6: had it and now they're living it. Yes, so it's

567
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 6: a very it's a very unique place.

568
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:14,959
Speaker 7: And I do want to also make mention that this

569
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 7: is not real estate is not the only market that's open.

570
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 7: It is an emerging market in every industry. So whether

571
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 7: you want to do content creation, whether you want to

572
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 7: do hair, whether you want to do nails like, it.

573
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: Does not matter.

574
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 7: There's so many opportunities to develop and grow relationships in

575
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 7: this area.

576
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 4: So let's get to this investment conversation, all right, So

577
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 4: let's give us some game or how we can invest

578
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 4: in real estate in Dubai, Airbnb, short term, long term plays. Yeah,

579
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 4: let's let's let's talk about it.

580
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 2: Let's talk about it. Okay, Okay, let's talk about the money.

581
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 2: So listen.

582
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 7: I want to make this simple for our listeners, right,

583
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 7: So let's talk about three different scenarios in which you

584
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 7: can invest in Dubai. So let's call this one investor

585
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 7: a investor a might be someone who's interested in investing

586
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 7: in Dubai. They have no intention on necessarily located into Dubai,

587
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 7: but they want to eurn currency in different currencies, right,

588
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 7: They want to just get a piece of the pie.

589
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 7: This particular investor might be someone who would invest in

590
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 7: what's called an off plan project.

591
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 2: So our off plan project would be what we call

592
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 2: new construction.

593
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 7: So you invest in this project that is not built

594
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 7: today but will be built in the future, say two

595
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 7: to four years out. So what happens is you say, hey,

596
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 7: I want to invest in this project that you say

597
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 7: will be here. Let's say I'll give you guys a

598
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 7: live example, because I just sold two of these units

599
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 7: this week. There's a project in Dubai that will be

600
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 7: completed in the year twenty twenty five. I have investors

601
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 7: who have put twenty percent down on this project, and

602
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 7: they won't make any additional payments on this project until

603
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 7: the year twenty twenty four. What's different about the Dubai

604
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 7: real estate market is that it allows for you to

605
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 7: pay for your projects in cash. So whereas in the

606
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 7: US we're paying for a project for thirty years, they've

607
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 7: structured payment plans for investors to be able to pay

608
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 7: off their properties in seven years, ten years, or less

609
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,719
Speaker 7: five years. Really you can buy a cash same day

610
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 7: as well, but this particular payment plan is a seven

611
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 7: year payment plan.

612
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 2: So if you think about it, this is.

613
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 7: Opening an opportunity for Americans to say, hey, in seven years,

614
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 7: I can own a property free and clear. So you

615
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 7: put twenty percent down and then you make payments based

616
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 7: on a schedule, so you have an amortization schedule. It

617
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 7: just doesn't go thirty years down. So what's cool about

618
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 7: this is it allows investors to come into the market

619
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 7: once the property is built in two years. Because this

620
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 7: particular one is built will be completed in twenty twenty five.

621
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 7: You now have the keys to your project, so it's

622
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 7: no longer like something that's to be it's here, right.

623
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 2: So what you can now do.

624
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 7: Is bring in Airbnb, you can bring in short term rental,

625
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 7: you can bring in long term rental into that project.

626
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 7: So now you own a project, but you've only paid

627
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 7: fifty percent of what's due. The remaining fifty percent is

628
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 7: still due up until twenty thirty. But now you have

629
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,719
Speaker 7: a tenant in there. So guess who's paying at one

630
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 7: percent for now you're doing airbnb, so guess who's covering

631
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 7: that cost for you? So this allows you to really

632
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 7: pay fifty percent of one hundred percent proper need that

633
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 7: you own.

634
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 2: So that's a really really dope way.

635
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 4: Well, let's let's back up a little bit. Okay, what

636
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 4: does it take to buy a property Indai?

637
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 2: Document wise?

638
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, because in America obviously you got to have your

639
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 4: two years at tax return.

640
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, you have blood tied.

641
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 4: Yes, if you're if you're going to Dubai, you're trying

642
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 4: to buy a property, what is what? What do you

643
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 4: have to have as far as documentation?

644
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 7: Y'all listen, I really love that question because it's so

645
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 7: simple to become an investor in Dubai. You only need

646
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 7: a copy of your passport, your driver's license, a utility

647
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 7: bill to show your local address in the US or

648
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 7: wherever you are in the world, as well as your

649
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 7: email address and your phone number. You have the twenty

650
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 7: percent down payment, you can start to become an investor.

651
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 4: So they don't care about your income, they don't look

652
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 4: at your credit.

653
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 2: Credit your credit score does not matter. What you need?

654
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 5: What about interest rates?

655
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 2: So let's go. So that was scenario number one. This

656
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 2: is a cash play.

657
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 7: So this is for someone who wants to buy cash

658
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 7: based on the strategic payment plan that they set out

659
00:29:58,760 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 7: for you.

660
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 6: Because as your and I'm thinking if I do that

661
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 6: in cash and I'm paying seven years as opposed to thirty,

662
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 6: most people are thinking I'm gonna pay more in the

663
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 6: seven No.

664
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 7: Because yes, so it's interest free. You're literally just saying, Okay,

665
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 7: pay here, pay here, pay here, pay here. There is

666
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 7: no interest in this strategy. So that's investor number one.

667
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 7: Okay or A, and we said investor B. That might

668
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 7: be someone who wants the same type of strategy, but

669
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 7: say they don't have five hundred thousand dollars, for example, to.

670
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 2: Completely invest, but they may have two fifty.

671
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 7: So what they can do is they can actually pay,

672
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 7: take that same payment schedule, make payments, say until the

673
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 7: year twenty twenty four, it's gonna be doing twenty five.

674
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 7: But I want to actually resell my floor plan back

675
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 7: to the market before it's completed, so I'm never actually

676
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 7: paying the full cost of the property. I just have

677
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 7: some money right now that I want to flip. So

678
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 7: this is a strategy. I've coin flipping the floor plan

679
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 7: in the US, when you sign a dotted line for

680
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 7: a new construction project.

681
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: You have to see it through to the end.

682
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 7: You don't get to take advantage of phase two and

683
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 7: phase three increases in appreciation. You own that property in Dubai.

684
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 7: You can sign today, and you can resell after a

685
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 7: certain threshold. That threshold is typically thirty percent of the

686
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 7: purchase price. So if you put twenty percent down and

687
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 7: then you make another payment of ten percent, you've now

688
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 7: met that threshold to resell your.

689
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 2: Floorplan to the market. So now you get to get.

690
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 7: Your initial investment back and earn interest on that based

691
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 7: on what you want to sell it for. Because guess what,

692
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 7: you as the seller, get to dictate what that new

693
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 7: price is. And you've also hired that on site team

694
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 7: to work for you because guess what, that building is

695
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 7: sold out. So the play is to wait for that

696
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 7: building to sell out. You have this paper in your pocket,

697
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 7: is not yet built, but you're saying, hey, you're gonna

698
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 7: have buyers coming in here every day that want to

699
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 7: buy into this project. Put me on the list and

700
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 7: say hey, I'm an interested seller, and now you can

701
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 7: contact me when people are interested in this floor plan,

702
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 7: and now you can resell it to the market. So

703
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 7: now the developers and investors in Dubai are in a

704
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 7: collaborative relationship versus in the US, it's like seller buyer,

705
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 7: we're at odds. In Dubai, they price it in a

706
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 7: way in which they allow investors to also eat from

707
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 7: their development projects.

708
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 4: So bank financing is not really a thing that's.

709
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 2: Gonna be scenario number three. But was that clear?

710
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 5: Got you?

711
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 2: Isn't that cool?

712
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 5: Yeah?

713
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 2: That's an amazing way to.

714
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 5: Then I have another question. Yeah, yeah, that's yeah.

715
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 7: So yeah, so investor, See this investor might be someone

716
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 7: who wants something now. They want to relocate to Dubai,

717
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 7: they want to start a business in Dubai. They're like,

718
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 7: I want or even I don't want to relocate, but

719
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 7: I want Airbnb. I want to start making money in

720
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 7: Dubai right now today. So this is going to be

721
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 7: a resale strategy. If you want to purchase a property

722
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 7: in Dubai and you want to resell the property, or

723
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 7: you want to just purchase it to live in or invest,

724
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 7: you have to put down a threshold of fifty percent.

725
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 7: So fifty percent, there's no longer the ten or twenty

726
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 7: percent options. The minimum for for an investor is fifty percent,

727
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 7: so you can get fifty percent financing coupled with your

728
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 7: fifty percent at closing, So when you close, you're bringing

729
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 7: fifty percent and that lender is bringing fifty percent what's required.

730
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 2: When it comes to lending.

731
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,719
Speaker 7: As a foreign investor, you do not have to move

732
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 7: to Do Bay to invest this way and obtain financing.

733
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 7: But your banks will not be your traditional Bank of

734
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,719
Speaker 7: America or Chase. You will be using local banks. So

735
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 7: what you do is they work through brokers, so there

736
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 7: will be a broker that will help you find the

737
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 7: local bank that best meets your criteria. So you're still

738
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 7: going through a pre approval process. Essentially, you fill out

739
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 7: an application. They ask you some questions. But what's really

740
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 7: cool is that they're not heavily credit focused, So even

741
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 7: if you have credit challenges, they're less concerned about credit.

742
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 7: You're more concerned about capital, So if you have more

743
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 7: capital and shaky credit, you'll still get the deal done.

744
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 2: They want foreign investors in the market.

745
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 6: Is there a certain threshold that they're looking at or

746
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 6: is it based on the overall pricing of the real

747
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 6: estate that you're trying to buy? Right, So, if I'm

748
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 6: trying to get a laydella home. How much money or

749
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 6: how much assets to one need to have to get

750
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 6: that home.

751
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,719
Speaker 7: It's really they're going to do a slight affordability calculation

752
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 7: with your debts and income to say you're approved for

753
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 7: a million or not. But because they're already requiring fifty percent,

754
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,439
Speaker 7: you're only still getting financed on five hundred thousand versus here,

755
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 7: you're getting financed on ninety six point five percent in

756
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 7: most cases. So it's like that's way more income that

757
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 7: you need to provide. So Dubai is a very debt

758
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 7: They are debt averse.

759
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 4: That you know. It's interesting, So most people buy property

760
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 4: in cash cash, So this is something I was actually

761
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 4: I think it was Ghana. It was a country in Africa,

762
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 4: in West Africa. So there's another thing that American in

763
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 4: the Western world has made normalized, where, if you really

764
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 4: think about it, a lot of these places outside of America,

765
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 4: the whole home buying process is different.

766
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:42,760
Speaker 2: It's so different.

767
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 4: It's like, you don't you if you have two hundred

768
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 4: thousand dollars then you buy a home for two hundred.

769
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 2: Thousands, that's it no interest.

770
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 4: Yes, it's really how it should be honestly right, because

771
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 4: it's like, we normalize buying things that we can't afford.

772
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 5: Absolutely, So we put ten.

773
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 4: Percent down or three point five percent down, one percent

774
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 4: down on a home that costs five million dollars, and

775
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,720
Speaker 4: now we got to pay a mortgage that we can't afford.

776
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,720
Speaker 4: And it's like, that's because we live beyond our means,

777
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,720
Speaker 4: that's because we want things that we really can't afford.

778
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 4: We want bigger. So it's like, well, why don't you

779
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 4: just pay for something that you can afford? Yes, absolutely,

780
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 4: But that's never really been taught to us because the

781
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 4: mortgage and even the way that banks work a lot

782
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 4: of these countries, especially on it the Muslim countries, the

783
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 4: banks don't charge interest, so the whole way that the

784
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 4: banking system is set up is different. It's not really

785
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 4: incentivized for you to take a mortgage because when you're

786
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 4: taking a mortgage, the bank is really winning in a

787
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 4: situation rye. So the amount of money that you're going

788
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 4: to pay.

789
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 5: Earners what's up.

790
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,279

811
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 8: podcasts about work of boring, and sure, they definitely can be,

812
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,800

Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from El Salvador

824

Speaker 1: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with

825
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 1: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just

826
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President

827
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States

828
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border

829
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over

830
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you

831
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 1: were here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly

832
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,399
Speaker 1: one thousand dollars a day. Imprisoned and deported, you will

833
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: never return but if you register using our CBP home

834
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.

835
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: Do what's right.

836
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 2: Leave now.

837
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: Under President Trump America's laws, border and families.

838
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:36,240
Speaker 5: Will be protected.

839
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 3: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.

840
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 4: They over a thirty year timeframe, you could avoid three

841
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 4: more houses for the house that you just purchased. So

842
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 4: it's like, even the way that we look at real

843
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 4: estate in America, we have a different mindset. We're trained

844
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 4: to put ourselves in debt for things that we traditionally

845
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 4: can't afford to benefit the bank.

846
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,359
Speaker 7: Absolutely, that's a beautiful way to explain it. And that's

847
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 7: exactly what's happening, and that's why I really love that.

848
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 7: So having a conversation with Americans now and I'm like, well,

849
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 7: if you want a property now you have to put

850
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 7: fifty percent down, It's.

851
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 2: Like, oh, gut punch, Like wait, what what do I.

852
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 6: Do?

853
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 5: That?

854
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 2: What the world just happened?

855
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 7: But imagine if we were trained all our lives to

856
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 7: say no, you can own a property in seven years,

857
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 7: how many more of us would be investors? How many

858
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:22,959
Speaker 7: more of us will own real estate free and clear

859
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 7: because there's no.

860
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,240
Speaker 5: Anal properties and make better financial decisions.

861
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly.

862
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 7: If I know I need it, then I'm gonna put

863
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 7: it towards something that's gonna actually add value. And so

864
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 7: I really love that when they typically go through the

865
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 7: financial aspect of what is necessary, they're gonna look at

866
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 7: your last two years bank statements.

867
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 2: That's the maximum that they'll ever do. Sometimes it can

868
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: be shorter three to six months.

869
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 7: It's really really capital focused. I can't emphasize that enough.

870
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 7: But in the scenario where you do get financing, there

871
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 7: will be some interest. But again, if you go back

872
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 7: to option A and you pay cash, there is no interest.

873
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 7: So that's the options that investors have is really really don't.

874
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,799
Speaker 5: So you said something and we saw this as well.

875
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 5: There was a lot of creans.

876
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 6: So that means there's a lot of development happening, which

877
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,840
Speaker 6: sometimes cold lead and we've seen this happen in Florida

878
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 6: when there's too much property and the market is oversaturated.

879
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 6: How do we know when or where we should be focusing.

880
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 6: Because you also brought up the mainland in the free zone,

881
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 6: which are two different things, and maybe explain that as well.

882
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 6: How do we know that you know what, this market

883
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 6: won't be oversaturated in the next five ten years.

884
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 7: Absolutely, I feel like oversaturation is kind of like just

885
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 7: a mindset thing, you know what I'm saying, Because imagine

886
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,280
Speaker 7: if y'all didn't start a podcast because there were hundreds

887
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 7: of podcasts. It's just about what can you provide value for.

888
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 7: What makes Dubai unique to the world is a few reasons. One,

889
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,359
Speaker 7: there's no capital gains tax, there's no income tax, there's

890
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 7: no property taxes, So there is no capital gains tax,

891
00:40:55,440 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 7: no income taxes or any property taxes in Dubai. That

892
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 7: alone allows so much cost savings for people that are

893
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 7: ultra high net worth individuals. M okay, yeah, you're talking

894
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 7: about the number three safest place to live in the world.

895
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,800
Speaker 7: So if you have a Bugatti in the US and

896
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 7: you have to keep it in your garage but you

897
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 7: really wanna drive it, what good is it to have

898
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 7: all these things that you can enjoy. You come to

899
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 7: Dubai and use that same money. You can enjoy everything

900
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 7: that you the fruits of your labor. You can truly

901
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 7: relax and enjoy it. It is the number one most

902
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 7: profitable a destination for Airbnb, and it is the number

903
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 7: one most popular travel destination.

904
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 2: It's literally written in their airport.

905
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 7: So what Dubai is creating is a safe haven for

906
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 7: people who are entrepreneurial. I will also say when it

907
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 7: comes to people who have service based jobs, this is

908
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 7: one of the the cons that people may need to

909
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 7: also pay attention to. That's listening. If you are American

910
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 7: and you don't have a specialized skill, or you're not

911
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 7: an entrepreneur and know how to actually generate income for

912
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 7: yourself as a business owner, you're gonna struggle in that market.

913
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 7: It's not necessarily the place for you to come and say, oh,

914
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 7: I'm gonna put in all these applications. You have to

915
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 7: come over there and have something to give. It's really

916
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 7: kind of like a give and take type of society.

917
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 7: They allow you to do your thing, but you have

918
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 7: to generate income for yourself unless you're coming over there

919
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:12,280
Speaker 7: you're like a CEO.

920
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 2: Of Google or something like that.

921
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 7: But that middle ground doesn't really exist for Americans because

922
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 7: the service based business there, they're able to use a

923
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 7: skilled labor. Yeah, they're in yeah different parts of the world,

924
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 7: and just the cost of labor is so much lower

925
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,320
Speaker 7: than what an American would expect. So you have to

926
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 7: be able to generate your own income. But your question though,

927
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 7: as far as which areas are really popping. So on

928
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 7: the luxury side, you have the Palm, you have the

929
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 7: Dubai Marina, which is where I live. I absolutely love it,

930
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:43,800
Speaker 7: you know, waking up every day and being able to

931
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 7: just see yachts at ten o'clock in the morning people

932
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 7: are just out living their best life is so inspiring

933
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,240
Speaker 7: to me. The other areas are absolutely love like downtown

934
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 7: Dubai and madelan City.

935
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 2: And then on the lower end more.

936
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 7: Affordable areas, you have places like the City of Arabia

937
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 7: or Emr South or the mac Hills, and there are

938
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 7: so many different areas that you can now invest in.

939
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 7: The beautiful part about it is that it's a growing economy,

940
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 7: so everything's open.

941
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 4: You said something that was important to shot really quick.

942
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 5: So the free zone is the Palm's part of the

943
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 5: free zone.

944
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 7: How does that word that's gonna be a part of

945
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,959
Speaker 7: the So free zone and mainland is just for people

946
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 7: who are looking to start businesses, to conduct business. It's

947
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 7: like it allows you territory. It's essentially to be able

948
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 7: to conduct business, to transact. But when it comes to

949
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 7: actually investing, you won't actually see a project advertised if

950
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 7: you can't as a foreign investor purchase it. If it's

951
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 7: something that's localized, that's more under wraps, that's not gonna

952
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 7: be listed for sale to they actually identify on the

953
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 7: listing if it's something that the public can purchase, or

954
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 7: if it's something an investor can purchase. But when it

955
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 7: comes to like all these new developments, those are all

956
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 7: for foreign investors.

957
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 4: You said something that was I won't get back to

958
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 4: there's no property tax. That's another thing in America is

959
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 4: like you technically never really own your property because even

960
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 4: if you buy it out and cash, yes, if you

961
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 4: fall behind your property taxes, then they can take your

962
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 4: property absolutely. And that's something that you know, property taxes.

963
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 4: Depending on where you live, that could be the mortgage

964
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 4: right there.

965
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 2: And not to mention you're not in control of it.

966
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 4: It goes up. Everywhere it goes up.

967
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 7: It goes up, and then you you know, And then

968
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 7: let's also think about the legacy play. We're all here too,

969
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 7: we all have children, well, yes, you do have sunset,

970
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 7: so we all want to leave things to our children.

971
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 7: And it's like, okay, if they get tired of the

972
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 7: property oftentimes we lose all of the things that we

973
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 7: work so hard in the next generation, you know. But

974
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 7: in this particular scenario, you leave this to your child

975
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 7: and the trust, they're going to keep it forever with

976
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 7: no property tax.

977
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 2: There's no property taxes.

978
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 6: So he correct me if I'm wrong, but I was reading.

979
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 6: So he said, no property tax, no capital gains tax.

980
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:52,919
Speaker 6: And you brought up Google for made me think there's

981
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:53,919
Speaker 6: no corporate tax.

982
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 2: There's no corporate tax.

983
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 5: I was reading that that might be something that they

984
00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:57,799
Speaker 5: look at change.

985
00:44:57,880 --> 00:44:59,720
Speaker 2: That is something that they are open to changing.

986
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,839
Speaker 7: So within like twenty twenty four to twenty five ish,

987
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 7: which you know, they may have a corporate tax.

988
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,799
Speaker 2: I mean, they're like listen now, y'all over here, make

989
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 2: it too uys.

990
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:12,240
Speaker 6: So I think, if I'm a corporate person these enterprises

991
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 6: and I come to Dubai, yes, I'm not paying corporate tax,

992
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 6: even for that tax two years, and even when the

993
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 6: proposal right now is saying about nine percent yes, as

994
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 6: opposed to the United States which is twenty one Yes, yes, it.

995
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 2: Makes a huge cost saving.

996
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 7: So even if it's nine percent, you're still saving money

997
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 7: and you're living in a place that's safe and you.

998
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 2: Have all this labor that is a lower expense.

999
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 7: You know, it just makes sense on so many different

1000
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 7: levels to at least think about it and have the

1001
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,720
Speaker 7: conversation about why am I not investing or conducting business

1002
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 7: in this region.

1003
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 2: Another thing I want to also point out.

1004
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 7: You mentioned oversaturation and seeing all these projects and it's like, okay, well,

1005
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 7: what are people actually doing with this real estate?

1006
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 2: You can go to Dubai.

1007
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 7: You might see buildings that may not seem like there

1008
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 7: are a lot of people in them, and there's a

1009
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,480
Speaker 7: reason why. It's because people come to Dubai and they

1010
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 7: don't just purchase one unit. They purchased an entire floor.

1011
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 2: So you may see a floor in the building that

1012
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 2: looks vacant, but the reason.

1013
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 7: That it is is because it's just something they're either

1014
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 7: sitting on somewhere that they're parking their money, you know,

1015
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 7: or a legacy play where they just bought it for

1016
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,759
Speaker 7: them kids. They bought the floor for them their kids.

1017
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 4: So let me ask you this, Dubai is part of

1018
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 4: the UA United Arab Emirates, but there's other emirates. Another

1019
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 4: emirate down the road is Abu Dhabi. That's where we met.

1020
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 4: So the Abu Dhabi play is interesting because from my

1021
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 4: understanding and correct me if I'm wrong, Dubai became so

1022
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,760
Speaker 4: popular because they had the visions for the tourism. Abu

1023
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 4: Dhabi is the real finance capital. Abu Dhabi is the

1024
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,800
Speaker 4: real money. Yes, that's they have way more wealth in

1025
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:53,359
Speaker 4: Abu Dhabi than they have in Dubai. And they are

1026
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 4: obviously you know, connected, but there's some level of competition

1027
00:46:56,600 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 4: as well. Oh yes, and Abu Dhabi is trying to

1028
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 4: catch up to Dubai as far as on the infrastructure

1029
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:07,479
Speaker 4: tourism side. Yes, So do you do work in Abu

1030
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 4: Dhabi and what are opportunities for Abu Dhabi because.

1031
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,280
Speaker 7: It's only an hour away, It's only an hour away,

1032
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,439
Speaker 7: so driving out, driving an hour away.

1033
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I really love Abu Dhabi.

1034
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 7: I look at them as I look at Dubai almost

1035
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 7: as like the black Sheep of the the UAE.

1036
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 2: It's one of those places where you can go and

1037
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 2: you can have, like you.

1038
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 7: Said, any part of the world at your fingertips, any

1039
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 7: experience that you want, you can have in Dubai. When

1040
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 7: it comes to Abu Dhabi, it is very much more conservative,

1041
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 7: you know. So the lifestyleships. It's like as soon as

1042
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,280
Speaker 7: you drive into Abu Dhabi, it's almost like you feel

1043
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 7: at peace.

1044
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 2: You're like, where are the birds? Like where I need?

1045
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 7: Sounds like it's too perfect, what is going on? So

1046
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 7: it's really kind of about the vibe that you're going for.

1047
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,320
Speaker 7: Like I go to Abu Dhabi for relaxation. I go

1048
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 7: there because I want to make some hoigh net worth connections,

1049
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,799
Speaker 7: you know. But I don't see Abu Dhabi being as

1050
00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 7: tourists friendly if you will as Dubai anytime soon, because

1051
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 7: they still want to keep some of their culture alive.

1052
00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 7: I think when you start to just allow too much

1053
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 7: to happen, it can kind of overthrow your overarching goal

1054
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 7: of life, which I really do love because we all

1055
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 7: need those pockets to be able to be compressed and

1056
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,839
Speaker 7: go back to, you know. And so, but they are

1057
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 7: doing a lot of development. They are much more wealthy

1058
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 7: than Dubai because they are all focused. Dubai is not

1059
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 7: oil focused. They are tourism focused and supply chain focused.

1060
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 7: So that is also a misconception about Dubaia's like they

1061
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 7: had this oil money. No, they have tourism money. And

1062
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 7: so that's why They're constantly building, constantly developing, and so

1063
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 7: the reason I love living there is because I'm a resident,

1064
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,320
Speaker 7: but I get to take advantage of living in a

1065
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:43,839
Speaker 7: tourism focused city.

1066
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 6: When we were driving around, I kept seeing the same

1067
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 6: name on these buildings, hopefully Emaar.

1068
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:52,839
Speaker 5: And Demac Yeo, the MAC was everywhere everywhere, So i'mying.

1069
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 6: Can you expect who that is? I mean, I feel

1070
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,360
Speaker 6: like they own every building. Yeah, told us about what

1071
00:48:59,480 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 6: the MAC is.

1072
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, how they came to have all these properties in Dubai.

1073
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, so Emar is a local owned company by Emirates,

1074
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 7: but they're also the MAC is actually a privately owned company,

1075
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,240
Speaker 7: so they're kind of competitors.

1076
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 2: You know.

1077
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 7: But they're pretty flamboyant when it comes to their advertising

1078
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:18,120
Speaker 7: and their marketing. I respect it, though, I'm like, look

1079
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 7: Williams and codext y'all, you know that's the next go No.

1080
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 7: But they are basically just really project focused, so they're

1081
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 7: always developing and creating new projects. I think that they

1082
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 7: were just first to adapt and help to bring that

1083
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 7: master plan to the city. I have to send you

1084
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 7: all this master plan offline. The King's vision is just insane.

1085
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 7: We already have flying deliveries. You can actually order on

1086
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 7: Uber a helicopter to come pick you up. So our

1087
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 7: Uber app has an helicopter as an option. If you

1088
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 7: stay at the Merge ol Arap and you have a

1089
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,400
Speaker 7: penthouse suite, they fly you to the hotel.

1090
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 2: So it's a lot of different things that are happening

1091
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 2: in this market that are so hunique.

1092
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 4: I mean when we was out there, we were, we was.

1093
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 4: We was in Abu Dhabi for most of the time,

1094
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 4: but it was during f one week, so yeah, like

1095
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,480
Speaker 4: everybody was. It was all pop up. Our guy Don

1096
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 4: Pu did a brooking chop house pop up and then

1097
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 4: our guys from tape they took over. They had tape

1098
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,720
Speaker 4: pop up with tape of a big club in London.

1099
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 4: They took over the night club.

1100
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 5: So it was it was a pop was out there,

1101
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 5: you got a show. Kendrick Lamar was out there.

1102
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, everybody was out there. But the thing, the one

1103
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:36,759
Speaker 4: thing is that the the government. I want to talk

1104
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 4: about that because like he was introducing us to a

1105
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:44,280
Speaker 4: variety of different people like the Minister of Event Tourism

1106
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 4: minister that is, the Minister of that and you know

1107
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 4: how important is it to make inroads with government officials.

1108
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 2: That's the only way anything moves. So if you that's

1109
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:55,799
Speaker 2: one of the biggest things.

1110
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 7: So because it's such an area that has so much wealth,

1111
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 7: obviously have frosters to go where there's well if there's

1112
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 7: gonna be people that are not who they say they are.

1113
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,200
Speaker 7: So it's very important to have the right relationships in

1114
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 7: government because culturally they move on their own time, you know,

1115
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 7: whereas in the US it's like, okay, they have deadlines

1116
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 7: on you can go online and say it's gonna be

1117
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 7: due by this date, pushed by this date. It's very ambiguity,

1118
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 7: you know, a lot of ambiguity when it comes to

1119
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 7: Dubai because it's all relationship focused. So if I come

1120
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:28,319
Speaker 7: to you and I'm like, okay, i'll complete my application whatever, whatever,

1121
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 7: if you have a relationship with the person behind me,

1122
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 7: you're gonna service their application before mine, even though it

1123
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:33,319
Speaker 7: submitted first.

1124
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 2: So it's very heavily relationship focused.

1125
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 7: And I've made some really really cool, cool connections that

1126
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 7: I can't talk about on a podcast, but I will

1127
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 7: say that they are very open to doing business where

1128
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,399
Speaker 7: it can be a bit intimidating because they're very straight faced.

1129
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 2: They're very serious.

1130
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 7: So I'm still learning a lot about that and also

1131
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 7: how to greet them, how to conduct business, what to say,

1132
00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 7: what not to say. That's another thing. Don't come over

1133
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 7: thinking that you can just have a conversation as if

1134
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:02,640
Speaker 7: they're American, because it's not.

1135
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 2: There are a lot of rules that you have to

1136
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,360
Speaker 2: be aware of and respect when it comes to doing business.

1137
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:08,919
Speaker 4: Like what what's the rules?

1138
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 2: So I'm a hugger, I'm from the South. I'm a

1139
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 2: country girl, y'all know me. I love people.

1140
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:15,439
Speaker 7: So if I see you and we have good energy

1141
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 7: and we vibe well, or I might stick my hand out,

1142
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,399
Speaker 7: But there are certain things that you you should never touch,

1143
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 7: you know, without their permission. So let them stick their

1144
00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 7: hand out to shake your hand, or you know, don't

1145
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 7: touch them, don't hug them, you know what I'm saying,

1146
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:31,239
Speaker 7: or let them speak first, or it's just different little

1147
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 7: subtleties that I'm learning. I still don't have it all

1148
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 7: the way down packs but respect overall, So whatever is respectful,

1149
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:38,800
Speaker 7: leaning to that.

1150
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:41,319
Speaker 2: So that's the best advice I can give.

1151
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 5: Leaning to respect like that, lean into it. Well.

1152
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 4: So what's the average price for Like if I want

1153
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,120
Speaker 4: to get an art, I want to get a place

1154
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 4: in Dubai, Right, Yeah, what's a budget range where I

1155
00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 4: can get something that's give me all right, give me decent,

1156
00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,839
Speaker 4: give me like nice, give me like really really nice.

1157
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:00,360
Speaker 5: Got you?

1158
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 7: So I would say on the low end we can start,

1159
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 7: and just to put it into US dollars, we would

1160
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 7: say around three hundred thousand US dollars for a condom

1161
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 7: for a condo.

1162
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:08,440
Speaker 2: One bedroom.

1163
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 7: So what people also need to realize too is that

1164
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,240
Speaker 7: the space is going to be totally different. So whereas

1165
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:16,320
Speaker 7: in the US we were looking for all this space

1166
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 7: and closet space and this and that, they're very minimalist.

1167
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,720
Speaker 7: So it's like you're gonna buy an apartment or condo

1168
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 7: as we would call it, for the same price as

1169
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,719
Speaker 7: you would a very nice home here in Atlanta, but

1170
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 7: you're not really thinking about it from buying it based

1171
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:31,240
Speaker 7: on the size.

1172
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 2: You're buying into the money. You know, it's a money play.

1173
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 2: It's not a size.

1174
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:35,920
Speaker 4: So it's like New York.

1175
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:36,719
Speaker 2: It's like New York.

1176
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 4: So three hundred thousand will get you what.

1177
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:40,959
Speaker 2: Eight hundred square feet?

1178
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,840
Speaker 4: That's like New York. Yea, well, that's that's cheaper than

1179
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 4: New York.

1180
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's still cheaper than New York.

1181
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:50,240
Speaker 6: They had the rental incomes for I think three thousand

1182
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 6: squaret or something like that squift foot by city. I

1183
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 6: think on average downtown you buy average rent, let's say

1184
00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:02,240
Speaker 6: three thousand dollars. Yeah, it's still.

1185
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 7: Very much more affordable than a lot of the different

1186
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 7: places and also the other countries around.

1187
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 2: So Dubai competes with other countries.

1188
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 7: You know, we're in the United States, so we're looking

1189
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 7: like kind of city to city, so it's like comparatively

1190
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 7: to the UK or whatever you might get in China

1191
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 7: or et cetera. So they're always kind of charting on

1192
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 7: that path to make sure we're still less expensive but

1193
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 7: more square footage than our surrounding country. On the middle end,

1194
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,280
Speaker 7: it kind of jumps to between five to like a million.

1195
00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:31,319
Speaker 7: As far as your middle grade, where you can still

1196
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 7: be downtown, you can still get a view of the birds,

1197
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 7: you can still get that would still be one to

1198
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 7: two bedrooms. That's just it's a better vibe. That's just

1199
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 7: a better area. You're paying for more solocations to be

1200
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:43,319
Speaker 7: on the first floor.

1201
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 4: You're on the.

1202
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,719
Speaker 7: Correct yes, absolutely, And then when it comes to over

1203
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,400
Speaker 7: a million plus and you're looking at like five million

1204
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 7: and all of that you're going to be in villains,

1205
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 7: so you're not really looking at villains.

1206
00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 2: Under three million US your single family home and.

1207
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,720
Speaker 5: That's that's down that's on the I scutched downtown.

1208
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 7: That's pretty much anywhere anyway, because it's not a villa

1209
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 7: focused area. Everything is built up, as y'all saw, is

1210
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:09,879
Speaker 7: like so many buildings, so everyone thereby his apartments. That's

1211
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 7: more of what the framework is architecturally. You're gonna get

1212
00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:15,759
Speaker 7: an apartment over a villa. If you're buying a villa.

1213
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 7: That's not necessarily an investment play. That's more like I

1214
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 7: want to live here.

1215
00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:22,120
Speaker 2: I'm settled. This is my primary residence or secondary home

1216
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 2: for some people.

1217
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 4: But how was that appreciation?

1218
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:25,200
Speaker 2: It's amazing.

1219
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 7: I mean, so, for example, the project that I just sold,

1220
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:30,560
Speaker 7: I mentioned I sold two units this week, right, they

1221
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:32,840
Speaker 7: put down their down payment. I got a text message

1222
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,240
Speaker 7: from my rep and she's like, we're increasing the prices

1223
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:36,359
Speaker 7: by ten percent next week.

1224
00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I looked it up. Looked it up for so

1225
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 5: the average for turn is eight eight percent.

1226
00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, and then rental yields, yes, can you talk about

1227
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,439
Speaker 6: that a little bit because Dubai also ranks number one,

1228
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:51,719
Speaker 6: and they compared it to city.

1229
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 5: So I know you said countries, but eight percent gross

1230
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:55,399
Speaker 5: rental yield.

1231
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 6: Number two is London at three percent and number three

1232
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:02,319
Speaker 6: is Paris at two point seventy five percent. So talk

1233
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 6: about rental yelds right, because a lot of people can

1234
00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:08,520
Speaker 6: get that confused. Rate of return O return on investment

1235
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 6: versus rental years is the difference between those two.

1236
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 7: But definitely, I think that Dubaia is one of those

1237
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:16,040
Speaker 7: places that is constantly growing, developing.

1238
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 2: Everything is on an upward swing.

1239
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:21,040
Speaker 7: And the beautiful part about what I'm focused on right

1240
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:22,799
Speaker 7: now being in the off plan market is that you're

1241
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,440
Speaker 7: going to buy something and it will never be as

1242
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 7: low as it is right now. So that's why it's

1243
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,800
Speaker 7: a huge strategy. I think that buying off plan for

1244
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:30,880
Speaker 7: people that are foreign investors is the best.

1245
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:31,560
Speaker 2: Thing to do right now.

1246
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 4: So who's Dubaia's competition because I know Saudi Arabia is

1247
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 4: making a strong push into everything at Dobai is kind

1248
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 4: of doing. Yes, that's what they've been told. Like they

1249
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 4: set back and they watched what Dubai did, and now

1250
00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:50,280
Speaker 4: they're positioning themselves to be bigger. Yes, they obviously nobody

1251
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 4: has more money. They don't.

1252
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 7: They have more money than everyone, so they're just like,

1253
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,320
Speaker 7: we'll just throw money at it. So Saudi has some

1254
00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 7: really incredible projects that are coming up, such as Neome,

1255
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,319
Speaker 7: which is the Line city. So that city is going

1256
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,759
Speaker 7: to be all encompassing. You never actually have to leave

1257
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,360
Speaker 7: the city. They have all kinds of things flying around

1258
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,760
Speaker 7: in that city. You don't even need your own vehicle.

1259
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 7: It's really really crazy. They also have the Turtle City.

1260
00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:15,840
Speaker 7: I forget the actual name of it, but it's like

1261
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 7: the palm, but it's shaped like a turtle, but it's

1262
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 7: bigger than the palm and it has more development. They

1263
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,480
Speaker 7: also have the water it's the middle of the water.

1264
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 7: It is insane what they're doing. Saudi is not playing.

1265
00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 2: But what I feel the difference is they're going to

1266
00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:32,560
Speaker 2: have a hard time retraining our.

1267
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 7: Minds to feel safe there, to feel not safe from

1268
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,200
Speaker 7: a oh i'm going to get hurt perspective, but to

1269
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:40,000
Speaker 7: be myself. You know, with all the different communities that

1270
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 7: we have that are developed, people don't feel comfortable partying or.

1271
00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 4: Wearing certain I think that that's why they're doing such

1272
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 4: a strong push with culture. So like Swiss, he's becoming

1273
00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 4: like the ambassador for Saudi, that's why. And then like

1274
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 4: they have a music festival that DJ Calicc have future,

1275
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 4: they have fat joke and they can write the check.

1276
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 4: So I think that that's a way to excel rate.

1277
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:01,760
Speaker 4: People have short memories.

1278
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:03,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and it's like.

1279
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:06,120
Speaker 4: Once you start to have enough of those cultural type

1280
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 4: of vibes, you're gonna forget everything.

1281
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're gonna follow the culture there.

1282
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 7: You're gonna follow the culture there. And then especially when

1283
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 7: they see something dangly and shining, all you have to

1284
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,600
Speaker 7: do is get a few Instagram influencers to show a

1285
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 7: really dope resort and they have one that I'm actually

1286
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:24,520
Speaker 7: that's pinned in my my saved folder for travel in Saudi,

1287
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 7: where you're in the desert but it's like caves and

1288
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 7: everything around you.

1289
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 2: It's so gorgeous, you know.

1290
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 7: So they're doing a great job on their marketing push

1291
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 7: to say it now, it's just about okay, relaxing some

1292
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 7: of the alcohol alls and being able to be more

1293
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 7: affectionate in public and different things like that.

1294
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:41,320
Speaker 2: So it's just retraining our minds.

1295
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:43,000
Speaker 5: And like you said, people have short they're.

1296
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:46,439
Speaker 6: The process of building the toldest landstructure in the world

1297
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:48,640
Speaker 6: as well. So they saw the birds clief and they said,

1298
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 6: let's go higher than that.

1299
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 2: But now Dubai has another structure hiding.

1300
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 5: And then they came back. It's sad we saw your plans. Yeah,

1301
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:56,440
Speaker 5: let's still one bigger than that.

1302
00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 2: Bigger than that.

1303
00:58:58,640 --> 00:58:59,280
Speaker 5: So I love it.

1304
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 2: I mean it's such an I love competition.

1305
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 7: I'm an athlete at heart, you know, I'm rre in

1306
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 7: track all my life and so for me, I like

1307
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 7: the competition because it's constantly forcing you to be better.

1308
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 7: It's like, okay, you can do this all right, now,

1309
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 7: how can I stretch you to be better? So I

1310
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 7: enjoy watching them.

1311
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:16,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1312
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 6: So when you think about yourself, now you're establishing your

1313
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 6: footprints in Dubai and your trailblazing, but it's international, and

1314
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 6: so are there markets inside of the UAE or maybe

1315
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:30,960
Speaker 6: somewhere else that you have your eyes on in that

1316
00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 6: ten to fifteen year vision play oh shorter than that.

1317
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:39,320
Speaker 2: Yes, So I would say South Africa would be one

1318
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 2: of the areas.

1319
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,320
Speaker 7: Between South Africa and Ghana. I think that those two

1320
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 7: areas really catch my attention quite a bit.

1321
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 2: So what we're doing what we're talking about.

1322
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:48,680
Speaker 5: We're going to go at the end of the year

1323
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:50,760
Speaker 5: to Actually I might.

1324
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,320
Speaker 2: Be there because I wanted to go there for New Year's.

1325
00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 4: Anyway, everybody's gonna be there, everybody. Yeah, So we're gonna

1326
00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 4: We're gonna do Market Mondays. We got to market Monday's

1327
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:02,360
Speaker 4: tourk Okay, that's the last stop on the tour. Yes, Ghana.

1328
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 2: I have some connections I can put you with in Ghana.

1329
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 4: I appreciate. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's about relations about relationships,

1330
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:10,400
Speaker 4: So let's.

1331
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:12,480
Speaker 7: Speak to that, right because we really think the US

1332
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 7: is all that. But Dubai is the Middle East, the

1333
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 7: middle of the world. I can literally get to Greece

1334
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:18,680
Speaker 7: in six hours. I can be in Egypt in three hours.

1335
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 4: Well, when we went there, we was talking with I Forget.

1336
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:25,120
Speaker 4: He was a very high ranking official in the government

1337
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:28,440
Speaker 4: at Steve Harvey's gala, and we was talking and we

1338
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:33,080
Speaker 4: was having a conversation and he was saying that all

1339
01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 4: of the focuses on Asia and Africa, like that's that's

1340
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 4: what growth is Asia and Africa.

1341
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,920
Speaker 5: Yes, like that, that's it, that's it.

1342
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:48,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's max.

1343
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,600
Speaker 4: Focus on that. Like so I feel like even in America.

1344
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,000
Speaker 4: I felt like, of course, America's our home, so we

1345
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,400
Speaker 4: always have we always have a bias towards America, but

1346
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 4: especially black people. We've always you know, fought for freedoms

1347
01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 4: and and justice and different things that nature. And I

1348
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,760
Speaker 4: feel like, you know, there's nothing that stops you from

1349
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 4: going different places, Like you know, you don't have to

1350
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,600
Speaker 4: be confined to just one part of the world, Like

1351
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 4: you can do business in different places, you can live

1352
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:18,720
Speaker 4: in different places, you can invest in different places, whether

1353
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,920
Speaker 4: it's Africa, whether it's in the Middle East, whether it's

1354
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 4: in the Caribbean, whatever. Like when you see that, you know,

1355
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 4: opportunities are limited at one place, then you go to

1356
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,600
Speaker 4: another place. This is what people have done for America

1357
01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:35,080
Speaker 4: for one hundred years. This is why so many immigrants

1358
01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:38,520
Speaker 4: have come to America, right because they have. They had

1359
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,640
Speaker 4: oppression where they were at, they had obstacles, they had

1360
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 4: limited opportunities where they came from. So they came to America,

1361
01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 4: established a new life for themselves and provided opportunities and

1362
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:53,440
Speaker 4: then actually even provided more opportunities back home. They sent

1363
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 4: money back home, they sent up so it's like there's

1364
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 4: no there's nothing we can do the same thing.

1365
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:00,960
Speaker 7: We can do the exact same thing. That's a powerful

1366
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 7: point because we don't really flip it around. We always

1367
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:05,840
Speaker 7: get upset about, oh, how did they get grants and

1368
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:07,600
Speaker 7: they're not from here, or they didn't do this. But

1369
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,720
Speaker 7: now being on the other side of it, where I'm

1370
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 7: entered into a foreign land, it's like, Wow, I see

1371
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 7: it so much more differently because they woke up here,

1372
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 7: they grew here. But I have so much more hustle

1373
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 7: and so much more hunger to like, let me take

1374
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 7: advantage of this market. Like I see it, I'm eager,

1375
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:24,920
Speaker 7: I'm anxious, and so that creates a sense of like, Okay,

1376
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,920
Speaker 7: I gotta do this. And then it's a sinker swim mentality.

1377
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:30,880
Speaker 7: I'm over there by myself, like I don't have another option.

1378
01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 7: I put this out there to the world. I cannot

1379
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:35,440
Speaker 7: feel I have to make this work. I have to

1380
01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:39,800
Speaker 7: make it happen. So it's created a different energy behind everything.

1381
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:41,080
Speaker 5: That work the world.

1382
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, and when you when you're over there, right, it's

1383
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:48,680
Speaker 6: not like I can drive down the street to somebody

1384
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:50,440
Speaker 6: that no, you got to figure these things out. It's

1385
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 6: a long way back from Savannah. Yeah, So we talked

1386
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 6: about a lot of the benefits. What are some of

1387
01:02:55,160 --> 01:03:00,080
Speaker 6: the reasons that people maybe shouldn't invest in Dubai? What

1388
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 6: are some of the cons So some of the.

1389
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 7: Cons would be so, as Rashad mentioned, we've been trained

1390
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,959
Speaker 7: to live in debt. If you're someone that is really

1391
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 7: struggles with that and things of that nature, it's not

1392
01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 7: the place for you because you will go to.

1393
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 2: Jail if you don't pay your bills. So you're not

1394
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 2: signing these payments and they go to.

1395
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:21,640
Speaker 4: Jail if you if you smoking weed, yes, so you

1396
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 4: have that. You heard it. They are they are laxing laws.

1397
01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 4: They said that they are trying to make it.

1398
01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:29,680
Speaker 2: I don't know, I haven't heard that one.

1399
01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 4: But yeah, if you if you plan on using drugs

1400
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,840
Speaker 4: or selling drugs, yes, that's not the that's not the

1401
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 4: part of the world.

1402
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:39,520
Speaker 7: That's not the place that you want to be because

1403
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:41,720
Speaker 7: you will be underground or in the district.

1404
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:44,960
Speaker 4: You don't wet. We met somebody with a personal experience.

1405
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:48,520
Speaker 4: Their friend so is we knew somebody. We met somebody

1406
01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 4: from New York. Their friend was in and he's serving

1407
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:51,560
Speaker 4: like thirty years in jail.

1408
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 2: See, they don't it's not worth it.

1409
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:55,880
Speaker 5: They said it's jail on the other side of the sun.

1410
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 2: That's it. So I really wanted to the sun.

1411
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 4: Now when they told me about the other side of

1412
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 4: the sun, I kept having about the other side of

1413
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 4: the son. So I asked them, I'm like, well, what

1414
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,120
Speaker 4: does that mean, Like, what's on the other side of

1415
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:11,920
Speaker 4: the sun? It was like, well, have you ever seen

1416
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:13,400
Speaker 4: the other side of the sun? I said, no, it's

1417
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 4: exactly that's whatever it means, you.

1418
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 7: Know, And so that's that's definitely. That was another point

1419
01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 7: that I was going to make. Definitely, recreational use of drugs,

1420
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:25,720
Speaker 7: it's not going to be the place. And also if

1421
01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 7: you don't have an open mind, you have to think

1422
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 7: there's over two hundred nationalities in Dubai, so you have

1423
01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 7: to be willing to work with different people and have

1424
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 7: a level of patience that they may not say things

1425
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 7: that you can quickly understand, you know, without being offensive

1426
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:40,240
Speaker 7: and just being open to culture. You don't want to

1427
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 7: be a part of conservatives because a lot of Americans

1428
01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,200
Speaker 7: we don't like to be told what to do. So

1429
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:45,960
Speaker 7: it's like we have a natural buck in us, like, no,

1430
01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:47,439
Speaker 7: you're not going to tell me I can't hold hands.

1431
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:48,560
Speaker 7: You're not going to tell me I can't where it?

1432
01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:52,440
Speaker 2: Did you get? So if you have yeah, yeah, actually

1433
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:54,120
Speaker 2: going to actually going to.

1434
01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:01,919
Speaker 4: Okay, let's do what I said. It's that simple. Actually yeah.

1435
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 2: So you know, those are just some of some of

1436
01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:04,880
Speaker 2: those reasons.

1437
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 7: And one thing that I will also say, if you

1438
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:09,720
Speaker 7: plan to conduct business in both the US and the UAE,

1439
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:12,920
Speaker 7: think about the fact that there is a huge times

1440
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:16,480
Speaker 7: of time zone difference. I'm literally a walking zombie most

1441
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:18,760
Speaker 7: days because I'm working for the US and then I'm

1442
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 7: working Dubai, and so some days I don't get rest because.

1443
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 2: I'm working two time zones.

1444
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 7: Like obviously, there's gonna have to be an adjustment where

1445
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,040
Speaker 7: I choose, but for now, it's a hustle, you know,

1446
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 7: And so I'm just like, make sure you take that

1447
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,000
Speaker 7: into consideration because you might want to talk to your

1448
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:36,560
Speaker 7: mom every day, but that's gonna change because when she

1449
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:38,840
Speaker 7: wakes up, you're going to sleep, and vice versa. So

1450
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:42,680
Speaker 7: relationships will start to become strained because it's difficult.

1451
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 2: It's difficult.

1452
01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,480
Speaker 4: Let me ask you this, how do you get how

1453
01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:50,600
Speaker 4: are you getting clients yourself? Who are you who are

1454
01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:53,720
Speaker 4: your clients and how are you how like you started

1455
01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:56,680
Speaker 4: a business, right, but how did you be able to

1456
01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:58,280
Speaker 4: grow that business? And how are you able to get

1457
01:05:58,560 --> 01:05:59,560
Speaker 4: people into your funnel?

1458
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:02,000
Speaker 7: So so the biggest thing is, you know, I think

1459
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:05,000
Speaker 7: that you all only interview people who have proof of concept, right.

1460
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:08,640
Speaker 7: So that is something that I have developed over the

1461
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:11,320
Speaker 7: last eleven years. I've been in real estate since twenty twelve,

1462
01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 7: and so I've built up a brand that people know,

1463
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:16,280
Speaker 7: like and trust. And because I've already done business, now

1464
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,760
Speaker 7: all I'm doing is doing the same thing I've been doing,

1465
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,680
Speaker 7: getting on social media, showing projects, showing people like this

1466
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 7: is what I'm now doing. I have created this community

1467
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:27,560
Speaker 7: and following of people that are like interested in me organically.

1468
01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:31,080
Speaker 7: So what I've done my strategy is I'm like, okay,

1469
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:34,600
Speaker 7: be the first. Number one that's like vom eyeopener. Number

1470
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 7: two is I'm bringing my audience to this region. So

1471
01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 7: my focus I didn't go into their market saying I'm

1472
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,120
Speaker 7: gonna work with immortis you work with I'm working with Americans.

1473
01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:46,439
Speaker 7: I'm like, this is my market. It's wide open because

1474
01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 7: we don't know about it, but we have the money,

1475
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 7: we just don't know where the opportunities are. So if

1476
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 7: I spread the message about hey, here are the opportunities.

1477
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:56,760
Speaker 7: Americans are going to listen to me because now I

1478
01:06:56,800 --> 01:06:58,760
Speaker 7: speak their language, I can break down a contract to.

1479
01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:01,000
Speaker 2: You in a way that you understand. We've developed trust,

1480
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 2: you know how, I know how to handle the culture.

1481
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 2: I know what you expect. You would much rather work with.

1482
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 7: Me than someone from Pakistan that can't explain the contract

1483
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 7: to you in a way that you can understand why,

1484
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:12,440
Speaker 7: because you're gonna feel like it's a scam. So because

1485
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,800
Speaker 7: of that, I've positioned myself to be the authority figure

1486
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 7: to say, hey, come listen. It's not that people haven't

1487
01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 7: wanted to invest for one hundred years, it's just that

1488
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:22,880
Speaker 7: they don't have anyone to trust.

1489
01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 5: You're a brand that they can trust and you're on

1490
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:25,200
Speaker 5: the ground.

1491
01:07:25,320 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 2: Yes, and so I'm hosting events.

1492
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,320
Speaker 7: So I just hosted an event invest Dubya twenty twenty

1493
01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:32,120
Speaker 7: three in March, doing it again in November. I had

1494
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:35,120
Speaker 7: about thirty people come the first time, from the Netherlands,

1495
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 7: from the US, from Africa that came and attended my

1496
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 7: first event. So what I'm doing is putting it out

1497
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:43,720
Speaker 7: there and people are naturally interested.

1498
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:44,080
Speaker 2: Because it's Dubai.

1499
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:45,600
Speaker 4: So what's that event? What's the event?

1500
01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 7: So Investor by twenty twenty three is an event that

1501
01:07:48,520 --> 01:07:51,720
Speaker 7: is focused on investors who want to learn about purchase

1502
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 7: in real estate in the Middle East. So they're gonna come.

1503
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:56,680

1506
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,040
Speaker 7: field projects. So we're going to do a property tour

1507
01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:07,800
Speaker 7: where you're actually walking it yourself. Because people always think

1508
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 7: something is up, so I think it's important that you

01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 2: event is going to be amazing.

1523
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:50,719
Speaker 7: So my visions can you expecting I'm expecting between fifty

1524
01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:51,599
Speaker 7: to one hundred people.

1525
01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:54,200
Speaker 2: I had ninety eight people on my wait list.

1526
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:56,840
Speaker 7: Like, I don't want to give it all away, but

1527
01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 7: it is going to be happening during the city's anniversary,

1528
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,639
Speaker 7: so it'll be their fifty second year anniversary. So it's

1529
01:09:02,640 --> 01:09:04,200
Speaker 7: going to be a live city. The Burge is going

1530
01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:06,840
Speaker 7: to be lit, you know lit, everyone's in town, it's

1531
01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:07,519
Speaker 7: perfect weather.

1532
01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:10,120
Speaker 2: It's so much to do. I can't wait, Like, I'm

1533
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:11,800
Speaker 2: putting my heart and soul into this event.

1534
01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:15,920
Speaker 6: When you have you know, some of your clients come over,

1535
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 6: do you speak to them about maybe dual citizenship? Yeah,

1536
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:20,960
Speaker 6: how that can be a betefit from a tax protector.

1537
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:24,280
Speaker 2: Absolutely, So it's not citizenship, it's residency.

1538
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:25,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1539
01:09:25,280 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 7: So you get to actually get residency by a couple ways.

1540
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,800
Speaker 7: You can purchase it through opening a business, or you

1541
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:32,960
Speaker 7: can purchase it through real estate. So if you meet

1542
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:36,200
