This “CARFAX for Properties” Might Change EVERYTHING

David:
That is the BiggerPockets Podcast, present 808.

Sheila:
I feel everybody realizes there must be a change. I feel David talked about earlier in regards to the archaic system that has by no means modified for the reason that starting of actual property.

David:
Proper.

Sheila:
And we are literally bringing about all of that change.

David:
What’s occurring everybody? That is David Greene, your host of the BiggerPockets Actual Property Podcast, right here right now with my co-host, Rob Abasolo, bringing you present quantity 808 like Hawaii’s space code. Rob, when’s the final time you had been in Hawaii?

Rob:
It was about three years in the past. Oh, no, no, no, no. It was like 4 years in the past. It’s been some time. It’s been some time. It’s truly why I learn BRRRR, by the best way. It enjoyable reality for you, my pal.

David:
Was in Hawaii.

Rob:
Was in Maui.

David:
Good man. That’s perhaps the place it was conceived, truly, if you concentrate on it. I spent a whole lot of time there too.

Rob:
And who is aware of, perhaps I used to be simply minutes away from Brandon Turner your entire time, and I had no thought.

David:
You’ll know if he was. All people sees him. He walks round, and it simply, he’s tremendous noticeable. Properly, guys, we now have obtained a incredible episode for you right now. You’ll see why we’re the largest, the perfect, and the baddest actual property podcast on the planet. Right this moment, Rob and I interview Sheila Fejeran and Teresa Grobecker of Consortia, an organization that’s utilizing blockchain to revolutionize the best way that actual property adjustments fingers, data is recorded, even forex is moved round.
It is a incredible episode. And it’s one more reason why you’re listening to the BiggerPockets Podcast as a result of each week, we’re bringing you tales like this, how-tos, and solutions that you have to make good actual property selections now in right now’s present market, in addition to the longer term market, which is the place we’re headed. Rob, I’m positive that your quiff is shaking proper now. What are some issues that buyers ought to take note of in right now’s present to assist them with their enterprise?

Rob:
Properly, initially, let me say I’m significantly enthusiastic about this episode as a result of I like future stuff. I like futurey stuff. I like change, particularly in the actual property world, the place a whole lot of practices are a bit outdated and archaic. I feel that when a county web site is fashionable, I get all excited as a result of I’m like, “Oh man, I don’t have to have a look at a web site from 1990.” So that is the exact opposite finish of that, the place it actually seems like we’re strolling into 2050, you recognize.

David:
Completely. This present will get your thoughts racing and your ideas operating. It’s very quick. You might need to hearken to it twice, however I need to just remember to tell us within the feedback on YouTube what had been among the issues that caught your consideration probably the most or perhaps gave you a bit of little bit of a mind-blown second.
Earlier than we herald Sheila and Teresa, a fast tip for everybody. By no means shut on a Friday. If you happen to’re an agent, don’t simply put 30 days on the contract. Really have a look at the timeline and keep away from closing on a Friday. And in case you’re shopping for, inform your agent this. Hearken to right now’s present to be taught why.

Rob:
Oh, I’ve obtained one other fast tip, one other fast tip. Fast tip quantity two is all the time name and confirm your wire directions. You could suppose that it’s an additional step. It’s annoying, however I promise you, in case you hearken to this episode, you’ll perceive why it’s truly 100% essential for each closing.

David:
All proper, let’s get to it. Sheila and Teresa, welcome to the present. To kick issues off, why don’t you inform us a bit of bit about your private background with actual property?

Teresa:
Yeah, I grew up in actual property, I might say. Once we speak about rates of interest being what they’re right now, one in all my first reminiscences is being at my sister’s growth, and rates of interest went to 18% whereas she was redoing a property. So I grew up managing property with my dad and mom. I purchased, I feel, 23 doorways within the lifeless of COVID. That’s such a dad joke. However the world was shut down. We didn’t understand how we’d get a notary out. The title places of work had been shut down. I purchased 23 doorways when the world was shut down, in order that’s enjoyable. I’m sort of loopy.
I did my first two repair and flips with a child on every hip and simply drywall in all places. Any individual was burning laminate flooring or as they had been laying new flooring in one of many properties and making an attempt to nurse a child. So yeah, I’m sort of hardcore about simply doubling down on investing in actual property. I do consider that it’s the key to unlocking wealth. I feel that… I consider within the American dream, like so hardcore. I’m an immigrant. I used to be left to die within the hospital in my nation as a result of I used to be half.
I used to be half American, half white, and half of that origin. And so my dad and mom… my mother left every little thing to come back to the USA, and for me, there’s nothing extra necessary than defending that American dream that evokes me daily. It’s the rationale why I took every week out of my life to go assist with Honest Housing final week in DC and actually what drives me with Consortia. In order that’s simply me and my story and investing and why actual property is necessary to me.

David:
Thanks for that. The place’d you purchase the properties at?

Teresa:
I purchased in Illinois. I’ve an atlas in entrance of me after which in Kentucky.

David:
All proper. Thanks. Sheila?

Sheila:
Yeah, I truly began out on the… working for Jerry Jones. He’s a giant developer in Dallas, and so I began working for his workplace, which is how I obtained into actual property, studying that finish of it after which wound up operating the Customized Traditional divisions and neighborhoods for David Weekley. My reward is construction. I like building, and so I can stroll right into a home and inform you precisely what to do to repair it. I can inform you what partitions to take down. What to alter. I can see it in my head.
So I might truly draw ground plans for owners, hand it to the CAD operator to load, after which labored with the builder to construct it. So I did that for a couple of decade earlier than I grew to become a dealer after which began shopping for and flipping or shopping for and holding and gutting and renovating properties ever since then. So I nonetheless try this, not as a lot. I’ve executed so lots of them that I’m on the level the place I’m like, “Okay, I feel I’m going to purchase one thing I don’t have to really intestine.”
I feel I’m on the level the place I simply need to have the ability to paint it and perhaps [inaudible] change the carpet or one thing or change the… Simply hardcore renovations simply do… take one thing out of you, and the older you get, the much less you’re keen to try this. After which serving to buyers. Multifamily or house buildings and simply serving to individuals look and purchase and what to do and learn how to be sure to can get your a reimbursement, how lengthy are you going to carry it, that sort of stuff.

David:
Sheila and Teresa run an organization referred to as Consortia. We’ll get into [inaudible] of what Consortia does. However briefly, this firm has put the world’s largest asset class on the blockchain, and it simply could also be the way forward for actual property. Teresa and Sheila each invested actual property personally, to allow them to communicate to the advantages for different buyers. So good to have you ever two on right now.

Sheila:
Thanks.

Teresa:
Superior to be right here. Thanks.

David:
Yeah. Teresa, are you able to share with our listeners what Consortia does?

Teresa:
Consortia is CarFax for the home on blockchain. So consider blockchain as a spreadsheet. Everybody’s used a spreadsheet earlier than, proper. We put in numbers, particulars a couple of transaction or one thing that we have to set up in a spreadsheet. Generally I create a spreadsheet, and I share it with Sheila, and I’m like, “Sheila, are you able to add to my spreadsheet since you’re tremendous good? Please add in data particulars.” Proper.
We’ve all executed this with enterprise companions, spouses. Different instances we make an inventory of issues, after which we ship it to someone like my youngsters, “You don’t have any opinion about this. Nobody cares what you suppose. You’re solely allowed to learn this. You’re not allowed to jot down into the spreadsheet.” In order that’s how we use blockchain. It’s only a spreadsheet. It’s an XML file to log particulars a couple of piece of property.

David:
Rob, what do you concentrate on this to this point?

Rob:
Yeah, I’ve a query. So once you say the CarFax for properties, CarFax sometimes… Principally it information all the historical past of a car, proper. So when the car was offered, when the car was broken, there’s an insurance coverage declare. It even will get all the way down to if somebody ever crashed a car and obtained it repaired at an auto store, proper. Is that successfully what you’re saying right here? It’s the CarFax for properties in that you’re mainly transcribing your entire historical past of the property onto the blockchain.

Teresa:
Yeah. You nailed it.

Rob:
Okay. Nice. So good, good, good. So that you talked about the blockchain, and we’re used to listening to blockchain in reference to crypto, however Consortia shouldn’t be crypto. Are you able to clarify how crypto and blockchain are totally different?

Teresa:
Yeah, so blockchain is the underlying know-how that crypto is predicated on high of. And the large distinction between Consortia and a whole lot of protocols which can be out there may be Consortia determined by no means to be a crypto. We by no means did a increase. Nothing that we’re constructed on is public chain. So there’s this large divergence, I might say, within the blockchain house, public versus personal chain.
And if it was public chain, which means every little thing about my data, shopper’s data would all be publicly out there or a minimum of a key, a hash, to go after which reference data that must be personal. So I’m licensed in a bunch of various methods from the state to federal authorities, and in my line of labor and Sheila’s line of labor, as a result of we’re related, we now have to handle the buyer. So defending their data is paramount, and that’s what Consortia does is defend the integrity of the home and the details about the one that owns the home.

David:
So let’s perhaps take this to a better degree after which scale down into a few of these particulars. If I’m understanding you appropriately, that is changing what a title report would’ve executed up to now, proper?

Teresa:
No, we don’t substitute title. For us, we now have a really totally different opinion. I feel there are a whole lot of millennial fans about blockchain. I’m a millennial. I get it, and I’m in blockchain. However the enterprise use case for title being recorded with a title plant being dealt with by attorneys and having an insurance coverage product behind it’s basic to the integrity of the world’s largest asset class.

David:
Okay. That helps. So we all know what it’s not. It’s not changing title disrupting the business such as you hold listening to all people screaming from the rooftops at any time when new know-how is launched. Are you able to give me some examples of what would seem on this spreadsheet?
So would this be, within the inspection report, the roof exhibits that it’s solely obtained 4 years of helpful life, or there’s a plumbing leak, and these pipes had been modified, however these ones weren’t. {The electrical} system was upgraded on this a part of the home, nevertheless it’s not someplace else. You’re saying that is data {that a} dwelling purchaser would need to know, however you don’t essentially need the lender being aware about this as a result of it might blow up the entire deal the minute that they noticed it.

Sheila:
Precisely. And in addition, remember the fact that a house inspector is doing an over… flyover of the asset. They’re not essentially a licensed contractor. They aren’t an expert plumber or an expert HVAC firm. They’re simply making an attempt to present you an thought of issues that would doubtlessly be of concern.
After which you’re imagined to then name these different corporations to have them truly inform you what’s occurring with that a part of the home and if there is a matter and if it does should be changed. That’s not the house inspector’s job. House inspectors to do based mostly on what code is right now versus the situation of that a part of the asset. So I feel lots of people have a look at dwelling inspectors as in the event that they’re this guru building person who’s going to inform them every little thing occurring within the property, and that’s not true.

Rob:
So I’ve a query about this. I’m actually on this use case. Successfully, if we’re stashing away all the info and all the repairs and all the issues from the properties cross, proper, 80 to 100 years, do you suppose it’s attainable that that might make the home appear to be a a lot scarier and riskier buy to the on a regular basis purchaser?

David:
100% it might. Yeah.

Rob:
Okay. And thus disrupting how typically properties are literally offered or resold. I imply, it looks like it may have a fairly drastic impact on market worth, proper.

Sheila:
Let me simply sort of put a pin on this as a result of Teresa and I had been on a gathering earlier right now with one in all our companions, who’s an organization that’s truly giving a real AVM valuation by his product. And he has created one thing that he can AI scan the photographs of the property and inform you what an ordinary AVM can be, i.e., what capital markets would usually see, versus, based mostly on the photographs, what the precise situation of the property worth is.
After which the fee to really renovate that property and what the worth can be after you renovated it. It was an $80,000 distinction between what an ordinary AVM that capital markets makes use of of the worth of that asset versus what the true situation was based mostly on scanning the photographs. So will this make an enormous distinction for capital markets, secondary markets? Will it make an enormous distinction between what you may get for the property? Completely.
So Teresa and I aren’t engaged on only one piece of this. We’re engaged on every bit of this. So we now have each single a part of the asset, each single factor having to do with that asset, location, flood, maps, photos, situation, home equipment, main mechanicals. We have now corporations in each a part of the business nationally that we’re ingesting information on to have the ability to then go give the true situation and the true worth of that asset.

Rob:
Okay. So actually quick for the individuals at dwelling. What’s AVM? I’m positive lots of people are like, “Properly, what’s that?”

Teresa:
Automated Valuation Mannequin. So once you go to Zillow, right here’s the perfect instance. Debates apart, whether or not Zillow is correct or not. You speak to a dealer or a home-owner, they is perhaps like, “Hmm, I don’t find out about that.” And truly, it takes many alternative AVMs to give you one thing the place you suppose you’re within the ballpark.
In order that’s the way it’s utilized in the actual property business, and that’s how a dealer goes to a shopper and says, “We’re going to record your worth at, say, 570.” You would possibly get a ballpark vary from anyplace from 650 all the way down to 525, however someplace within the center is the value that you just give you. No totally different in capital markets. They need to know what’s the worth of this asset that’s being traded in these mortgage swimming pools.

David:
Okay, that is dense and wealthy like German chocolate truffles.

Sheila:
Precisely.

David:
[inaudible] see if I can… Let me see if I’ve a great understanding of what you’re saying. Attempt to paint as away from an image as I can, after which we’re going to dive into how this will change the actual property market. If I’m listening to you appropriate, we’re going to have the ability to retailer data that the house inspector discovered, the HVAC firm that got here to have a look at the air conditioner generates a report. It goes to the home-owner. That individual now doesn’t should disclose that to the customer. This might be a spot the place it’s all saved. Right here’s the roofing report, the HVAC report, the plumbing report, the pest report. At one level, that they had termites. At one level, that they had roaches. Something like that’s now a database the place that is saved that individuals can see.
And I feel you talked about earlier, the rationale that is invaluable is as a result of not everybody can simply go in there and see it. They should have permission. So the capital markets and we are saying that we’re speaking in regards to the corporations that purchase loans from someplace else. It’s not essentially good for them to have the ability to see that proper off the bat as a result of who is aware of what they’re going to do with that data and the way they complicate it. So I perceive now why you had been saying this’ll be personal, and you probably have permission, you may see what was in there. The automated valuation fashions are issues that these secondary markets which can be shopping for tons of paper, tons of loans on these homes, they will’t rent an individual to individually have a look at each home and say, “Let’s see the photographs.”
So what occurs in these conditions, as a result of I’ve labored with these hedge funds or personal fairness, is they only price an algorithm that type of accumulates all of this information collectively. They throw it in there. Like, “The typical of those 700 properties, they need to be price about no matter.” It is a method to truly convey some specifics to the property in order that they may know what they’re getting and provide you with a extra correct thought much like what the Zestimate does on Zillow. This might be a method that you possibly can get a extra correct understanding of a house with out having to go get the skilled to go go to the home, have a look at the photographs. Okay. I see the place you guys are going with this complete factor.
And it might change the best way, Rob, to your level, individuals can be scared to purchase homes. They are going to at first as a result of each purchaser assumes they’re shopping for a model new building dwelling, regardless that it’s 50 years outdated. And the minute as a result of I do know you two each make investments yourselves. This blows up offers on a regular basis. As an agent, we have a look at the home, and there’s a crack within the bricks main as much as the house, they usually’re like, “Oh, I don’t need to purchase it. The bricks are cracked. I would like a $10,000 credit score.” What you’re proposing, the CarFax for a house would put all of this collectively in a database. We may truly give you algorithms that might think about, “Hey, plumbing, that’s 30 years outdated. Takes this a lot off the worth of a home.”
Issues like roofs, dry rot, all this stuff that truly do make a revenue much less… a property much less worthwhile might be evaluated, giving someone a way more goal understanding of what a house is price. And a purchaser would then get used to seeing this in order that they wouldn’t freak out each single time they see there’s a leaky bathroom as a result of each home they’ve checked out, there’s an inventory of these items. Is that an total understanding of what you guys are placing collectively right here?

Teresa:
Yeah. I feel that it’s most helpful in capital markets. I feel that’s… And if we are able to dial down the danger in capital markets, so work from the top and work my method again. So in case you create extra efficiencies over right here in capital markets, it’s going to trickle all the way down to the buyer profit.

David:
All proper. So once you say the capital markets, what you’re saying is this is able to give lenders extra confidence in lending on particular belongings, which might theoretically convey extra money into that world as a result of it appears much less dangerous for them.

Teresa:
Not simply the lenders secondary markets. So the cash behind the lender.

David:
Okay.

Teresa:
As a result of it’s not simply the lender that has the cash. It’s the man with the cash behind that. After which it’s not simply the insurance coverage firm. It’s the reinsurance firm that’s behind the man. Like Liberty Mutual has a reinsurance firm, if not two or three behind them that’s diversifying dangers.

Sheila:
And the opposite factor that most individuals don’t understand, to your level David, is that most individuals, when they give thought to the actual property business, they only take into consideration the gross sales. Like, “What does the Nationwide Affiliation of Realtors say the variety of gross sales had been for the 12 months?” A few years in the past, it was 6 million. Final 12 months is about 5.2. This 12 months it’s going to wind up someplace round 4.5 million. So most individuals are solely interested by the gross sales of properties for the 12 months.
However to your level about you as a lender having somebody who offers you the mortgage that they promote that most individuals don’t understand once you get a mortgage, that mortgage’s going to be offered 5 to seven instances. So as a substitute of Teresa and I interested by 4 million properties or 4 million gross sales a 12 months, we’re speaking… we now have individuals buying and selling thousands and thousands a month with the those who we’re working with which can be doing the mortgage-backed safety.
So there are, as she talked about, trillions of {dollars} being exchanged yearly on the mortgage-backed safety aspect with simply the loans transferring fingers. So if we repair that, how then will that not impression this finish of the spectrum, not solely from the fee to originate a mortgage, the buyer prices, [inaudible] goes all the way down to the buyer. As a result of if we are able to save the cash over right here, then we now have the flexibility to impression each a part of the method and everybody concerned.

Rob:
Properly, that is all very fascinating. I can see the use case. It’s very clear to see the place you’re going, proper. What the traits that you just’re making an attempt to set or making an attempt to repair. However can we simply again up and go to the origin of why we’re doing this and perhaps speak about among the pitfalls of the state of property information now in transactions?

Teresa:
Oh, positive. Yeah. So there’s some pitfalls in doing a transaction. In the best way transactions are dealt with now, there’s simply a lot details about the home that we don’t know. I don’t care if there’s a nail gap within the wall as a result of I’m an investor. If there’s a gap two ft large, I’m like, “Hmm, that’s a bit of…” I obtained to doc that one, proper. But when it’s a small error, that’s so subjective.
So there’s all this previous historical past a couple of home. It might be one thing so simple as like, “What colour paint is on my wall? I’d wish to know that colour paint so I don’t make 5 journeys to House Depot to determine what paint to match.” However it’s greater than that. It’s like, “The place are the pipes on this home? Do I’ve to interrupt aside this whole wall simply to determine learn how to make some sort of an edit in my kitchen dimension?” So this actually comes from frustration of shopping for homes, promoting homes, getting yelled at my prospects, like, “You lied to me about this.” It’s private self-interest. Really, the entire venture could be very egocentric, I suppose.

David:
Properly, it’s a results of someone someplace didn’t disclose one thing, after which, particularly, in California however in all places. All of us rush and say, “Let’s make a legislation or a brand new rule-”

Sheila:
Precisely.

David:
“… to cease this from ever occurring once more.” Nobody asks the query of is that this truly sensible or will it work? It simply makes us really feel protected that there’s a rule. So they are saying, “All proper, sellers should disclose every little thing they know that’s mistaken with the home.” However sellers don’t know every little thing that’s mistaken with the home. And in the event that they did, how exhausting… how straightforward is it to show you knew that, and also you didn’t inform me? I imply, it occurred 15 years in the past. Or, “Yeah, we used to listen to a bizarre noise at night time, however I didn’t give it some thought.”
After which, such as you mentioned, Teresa, the agent visible inspection, disclosure is a joke. You stroll by, and also you’re like, “The paint’s discolored over there. The cupboard squeaks once you open it.” What? You’re not a house inspector. You don’t know what you’re taking a look at. It’s a method that individuals verify a field that makes a shopper really feel protected that’s completely ineffective. It doesn’t do any good. After which it results in off individuals, proper. They transfer into the home, and the cupboard doorways are falling off, and the tap is leaking, or there’s a basis downside that didn’t present up within the report, after which they’re offended, they usually need to go sue someone.
After which, “Properly, these sellers knew about it.” It simply creates a giant ugly state of affairs. What I see, what you guys are saying is your product can be a historical past, identical to with a automotive, of every little thing that went mistaken with it so that buyers could make educated selections. I imply, I feel that’s good, and I’m speechless. This is perhaps the primary time on the podcast. I don’t know what to say apart from I feel that that is good.

Rob:
Yeah, it’s a extremely cool product. So I do know that one of many different large pitfalls most likely of the present method that we collect information or disperse it’s wire fraud. Is there a use case for stopping wire fraud type of by this new, I don’t know, processing of information?

Sheila:
Completely. I imply, that’s one of many issues that we’re working with the Ate up as a result of if you concentrate on not too terribly way back, wire fraud was within the million, 100 million vary. Now it’s 2 billion.

David:
Are you able to guys describe wire fraud briefly so that individuals know virtually what which means?

Rob:
Yeah. To love an on a regular basis shopper?

David:
Yeah.

Sheila:
Properly, if I’m shopping for a home, a title firm says, “I’m going to ship you wiring directions.” They e-mail it to me. You don’t suppose individuals are hacking individuals’s emails.

David:
Proper.

Sheila:
After which, I can select to both bodily go to my financial institution and ship that wire. However what occurs is you get verification by e-mail, which is generally not safe, in regards to the amount of cash that’s going to be wired and the day it must be wired. So that you don’t suppose that individuals are interrupting that wire? And we’ve had so many individuals inform us tales that 600,000 was despatched, and it by no means arrived on the title firm. And in some way, in that 24 hour interval or no matter interval it takes to get that wire to that title firm, it in some way disappears.

David:
Yeah. So that you’ll have individuals that can name my consumer and say, “Hey, I work for ACME Title firm. I’m Candace. You by no means met me, however hey, right here’s the wiring directions. We want you to… Once you go to the financial institution right now, right here’s what you’re going to ship. Or once you go, right here it’s.” And it’s not the directions from the title firm. It’s their very own account that you just’re sending the cash to. Or, such as you talked about, they’ll ship you an e-mail that appears like ACME Title company-

Rob:
Wow.

David:
… that claims, “Hey, right here’s your wiring directions. Ship it right here.” And you haven’t any thought. So us as brokers, that is so widespread that we must confirm with our patrons, “Yeah, that is the actual factor that you need to be sending.” You nearly should get all people on the telephone on the similar time and say, “Yep, that is the title rep. That is the right…” It’s very straightforward for this to occur, and there’s no recourse. The place do you go to say, “That’s not honest?” Is there an insurance coverage firm that’s going to cowl you? Is the federal government going to cowl you? You simply misplaced the $600,000.

Teresa:
So individuals don’t understand however the title firm’s on the hook for. That title is extra than simply title insurance coverage on the home. Really it covers the entire transaction and the wire fraud that occurs.

David:
In order that implies that your title turns into dearer as a result of they should cowl their losses when this stuff occur.

Sheila:
So you’ve wire fraud. You’ve got [inaudible] fraud. Teresa and I had a scenario the place we all know somebody {that a} piece of land obtained offered and discovered that that individual promoting the land wasn’t truly the proprietor. The actual proprietor confirmed up on the courthouse to pay their taxes, they usually mentioned, “Properly, you offered that land.” They usually’re like, “What? What are you speaking about? I didn’t promote that piece of land.” You even have those who current on foreclosures that they personal that foreclosures maintain open homes and promote a home that’s in foreclosures that they don’t personal. There’s so some ways individuals defraud different individuals.
So among the issues that we’re engaged on are verification of the human, verification of the paperwork that human owns that asset. We have now the flexibility with totally different corporations… We haven’t applied all of it, however we now have the flexibility to do bifacial scans, hand scans, methods to confirm that your id is actually your id, and the way can we just remember to are the true proprietor? As a result of we had somebody that made a driver’s license, made all the information exhibiting that they had been the proprietor of that property, and defunct the title firm as a result of that they had despatched a notary that they weren’t within the title firm.
I imply, it’s simply such a giant downside at so many ranges that when you’ve an immutable ledger, primary, you’ve a document of possession which you could then safe greater than some other method. I’m not going to say it isn’t hackable as a result of, sadly, with a whole lot of the good individuals on this world which can be fraudsters, I’m positive they’re engaged on methods to interrupt by blockchain. In order a lot as attainable, at present, it’s the most safe method to forestall this stuff on an immutable ledger and to validate the human and to validate the asset.
And when you concentrate on what we’re going to have the ability to do to keep at bay or forestall or hopefully lower the fraud in all the totally different ways in which we’ve mentioned, this can be a big, big profit to the customers and to the business and to our economic system from all of those individuals robbing individuals on each degree. After which the brand new Fed Rail that Teresa talked about that simply got here out this week, that’s immediate settlement. So lots of people suppose in the event that they ship a wire that their cash’s gone, that they don’t have to fret.
And that’s not true. So in case you ship a Zelle, there’s nonetheless a delay. If you happen to ship a PayPal, there’s nonetheless a delay. There’s an opportunity for somebody to steal that. The place on the Fed Rail, they’re attaching your financial institution to that title firm straight, and it’s rapid. So with the Fed Rail, the aim is to have the ability to forestall the fraud as a result of it’s instantaneous from the federal authorities and the banking establishment to that title firm. That’s the aim.

David:
So if I’m listening to you gals appropriately, there’s two totally different issues that we’re discussing right here. One is the precise details about the property itself that can be saved on this blockchain. The opposite is a type of id verification that can cease the fraud, and Consortia offers each.

Teresa:
Sure, you’re appropriate. Sure.

David:
Okay. The rest that this excellent product is providing? Can it additionally slice and cube and make Julienne fries?

Rob:
I additionally need to simply say actually rapidly on the wire fraud factor. I’m truly actually glad that y’all are speaking about actually this particular downside as a result of I’ll say that each time that I shut on a property they usually ship me the wire directions, they usually say, “Please name us earlier than you wire it,” I’m all the time a bit of irritated as a result of like I can learn the account quantity.

David:
Now you recognize why they’re doing that.

Rob:
Now I do know why. Yeah. I imply, I do it each time as a result of they are saying to do it’s all the time in daring exclamation marks, and you bought to hearken to that.

David:
And also you suppose you’re doing them a favor. You’re like, “Fantastic, I’ll name you guys. Robuilt, hey, that is me. Are you cheerful now?” Having no thought what they had been saving you from.

Rob:
They usually’re like, “Sure. Are you able to ship 10,000 extra?”

Sheila:
And also you convey up a great level, Rob as a result of that is the opposite factor that occurs that Teresa has introduced up up to now to me is that… And since we now have a whole lot of buyers listening, this can be a actually essential level. When you’ve got paid money to your asset, it’s simpler for them to steal.
So Teresa has pals, and she or he has suggested me to have a small mortgage on the asset as a result of it’s more durable to steal it if it has a mortgage as a result of in case you suppose it’s cleared, if it’s cleared and I’m not checking on that title standing, and I’m not… I don’t have checks and balances that I’ve in place to verify if someone’s pinging or doing one thing or making an attempt to create fraud on that, what am I doing to verify I’m defending that asset? And a lender, if there’s a mortgage, the lender needs to be contacted in an effort to treatment the mortgage in an effort to launch that asset.

David:
Proper. Proper. After which you need to signal paperwork that say, “Sure, repay the mortgage to the lender.” So this has occurred to me earlier than. I personal properties free and clear that individuals have stolen, and that’s precisely one of many ones that’s capable of occur is-

Sheila:
Oh my goodness.

David:
… you usually would have an additional degree of communication the place a lender would say, even when it’s a $10 be aware or no matter, “Hey, do you need to repay this $10? What? What are you speaking about?” That alerts you that someone is transferred title or is within the strategy of that from you to another person, which occurred to me at a pretty big scale a few years in the past, and it truly created absolute chaos in my life for the previous couple of years.

Teresa:
Oh, no.

David:
It triggered a whole lot of large issues, and I used to be amazed at how straightforward it was to do. And once I went to the precise county and mentioned, “Hey, don’t let any of those properties switch to anybody else.” The worker’s actually are like, “We are able to’t. In the event that they present up with a deed, we’re going to document it. There’s no pink flag system. There’s nothing you are able to do to cease this. That’s simply the best way the system works.” And that may be a nice piece of recommendation. There’s additionally, I’ll add, not that you just guys want me so as to add to it, however when there’s not a whole lot of fairness in a property, there may be much less incentive for somebody to attempt to steal it as a result of a mortgage’s going to should be paid off.
So [inaudible] you typically hear paying off properties, that’s the most secure method to make investments, however in sure conditions, it’s not. I like your advice there. Have a small lien on the property. However you guys are additionally addressing this indisputable fact that we now have an archaic system of transferring properties. Have we obtained into but, or would you guys like to speak about simply when there may be title insurance coverage that must be issued, you should buy a property, and 6 months later, you’re nonetheless paying for title insurance coverage when nothing has occurred within the final six months, and it’s the very same quantity? Have you ever guys type of taken that into consideration?

Teresa:
We truly partnered with a title insurance coverage firm that lets you have a title coverage that’s energetic or good for 4 years. In order that’s nice in case you’re house-flipping. That’s out there by Boston Nationwide Title. So in case you guys need to hold that within the present or edit that out however that’s one of many uncommon circumstances the place I’ve seen one thing that’s simply very pro-investor, pro-consumer, and actually saves on prices there. So I feel that’s a fairly cool characteristic.

Rob:
I imply, the best way I’ve all the time considered title insurance coverage, perhaps I’ve been viewing it mistaken, is you’re shopping for a property, you get the title insurance coverage to make it possible for the proprietor of the property is definitely the proprietor and that you just’re truly proudly owning the property and every little thing like that. Why would you want it for 4 to 6 years after that?

Teresa:
Properly, in case you’re going to flip the property, then there’s… you’re going to wish that title insurance coverage for the following buy and sale. And so you may sort of… by utilizing that very same firm and the coverage, they’ve executed a whole lot of the work. So it’s straightforward for them to proceed the coverage as a result of each time you turn corporations, they should do the analysis from begin to end.
We’ve been very well-schooled up on the title business due to the character of blockchain tying into title. So there’s simply so many nuances. I feel we’ve gone by two years of education with our pal TJ Harrington about title, and simply grew to become… he grew to become an advisor to us after which we grew to become an advisor to their Blackstone portfolio of corporations.

Sheila:
I feel the opposite factor, Rob, that lots of people, particularly buyers, don’t take into consideration as a result of I’ve had so many buyers say, “Properly, I don’t want title coverage. I’m paying money or no matter. I don’t want that. I’m simply going to purchase and maintain or purchase and flip.” However individuals don’t understand there’s two sorts of title insurance policies. One goes to be the coverage that covers the lender. That in case you, by probability, foreclosed, the lender is ready to file that insurance coverage declare and get their a reimbursement. The second is the proprietor’s title coverage that might cowl you.
And so proprietor’s title, coverage, the title firm does a search from the final time a good title firm did a search of the property, up till now, they usually cowl you in case someone comes again in opposition to the property. And this is essential when you concentrate on. I used to be within the growth enterprise earlier than I grew to become a dealer, and I constructed a lot of properties for a big nationwide builder. That builder went bankrupt, and all the trades put liens on each property within the neighborhood as a result of they weren’t paid by the builder. And none of these individuals may promote their homes as a result of they needed to treatment these liens on their properties earlier than they may promote.
So title coverage would then cowl you in case you had been a home-owner in case you had title coverage to be sure to had been protected in opposition to any liens from builders or whoever that attempted to be filed in opposition to your property. After which it covers you into the longer term as effectively, like Teresa talked about. And so once you go to flip that property, and even in case you’re holding that property, it offers you protection because the proprietor. So I might by no means, as an investor, purchase a property with out title insurance coverage ever. Simply that little bit of cash you spend is so price it for the peace of thoughts that something that occurs, you’re coated, and the title firm’s on the hook to treatment that.

Rob:
Wow. Okay. So that you talked about, all proper, so there’s the title insurance coverage profit. I imply, there’s lots. You additionally talked about type of the monetary automation in that in case you ship a Zelle, it might take a very long time, however on a ledger within the blockchain, it may be lots sooner. Does that additionally affect how briskly one may truly shut on the property?
As a result of clearly, with title corporations being a bit of bit extra archaic, you need to work round their older programs. The truth that they aren’t open on weekends. The truth that they shut at 4 or 5:00 PM There’s a whole lot of issues with title corporations that I’m all the time like, “Okay, I suppose I’m in your time.” However does the blockchain resolve any of that?

Teresa:
Properly, I feel the brand new fee rails actually resolve this problem of the closing timeline, and it’s as a result of the fee is made securely, safely. All events are verified going into it. And that is with one in all our companion corporations referred to as Paymints like mints, like gum, paymints.io, they usually’re working with Fed as a result of their financial institution is on board with FedNow. So the primary 50 banks simply launched with FedNow yesterday. So the profit right here is all of the events have been verified, after which that cash settles immediately.
So, for instance, Sheila and I are ready for a wire that was initiated on Monday. I truly should go verify and see if it truly hit. I feel that wire is misplaced. That’s superior. Nobody’s as involved as perhaps we ought to be that the wire is simply lacking. So as a substitute of that annoying query that brokers and brokers all the time ask of the title division, we all the time ask this, “Did the wire hit? Did the wire hit?” Identical to Sheila and I are asking, “Did the wire hit?” That problem goes away as a result of we’ll immediately know if the cash was deposited. Was it despatched and initiated? Was it obtained?
So then if that occurs, say, the morning of, we are able to go to the closing window on the county assessor’s workplace, the county recorder’s workplace, and go and document and shut the deal. And that makes an enormous distinction. It makes a distinction to the lenders as a result of the lenders are paying curiosity per diem, which will get rolled all the way down to the buyer. Then that Friday closing, nobody ought to ever shut on a Friday. By no means write that into your buy settlement. “We’re going to shut on Friday, July twenty first.” Dangerous thought. So that you by no means shut on a Friday as a result of in case you miss that window, your shoppers are homeless for a weekend.

Rob:
Oh, yeah.

Teresa:
After which they should take off work through the subsequent week to go transfer into their home. After which their little kids haven’t any place to put their head at night time and eat breakfast. After which the realtor will get his name saying, “Are you going to pay for my resort since you missed closing?” Who pays for that, proper? The buyer does. So this eliminates a whole lot of that friction that occurs within the transaction simply due to the wire. Did the wire make it?

Rob:
I don’t suppose that worry ever goes away. I’ve despatched just a few wires simply final week, and I despatched them out early very first thing within the morning earlier than the cutoff, and the individuals referred to as me, they usually had been like, “It’s not right here but at 3:00 PM.” And I used to be like, “Oh no, I ought to have referred to as and verified.” No, I’m simply kidding. I’m all the time like, “Oh, what am I going to do?” And it all the time finally ends up hitting, however there’s a little inconsistency there with wire, so I’m glad to listen to that.
Whereas with blockchain-type stuff, significantly some crypto. I’m not going to actually get into that. That’s much more instantaneous as a result of it’s on the ledgers. In order that, to me, looks like a really, superb use case. You talked about a bit of bit earlier that the title insurance coverage, you see some individuals not getting insurance coverage, and that’s a extremely large mistake. I can see that now. However are there some other errors that you just see actual property buyers making now on the planet of transactions of properties?

Sheila:
I feel it will depend on the investor. It will depend on their expertise. It will depend on whether or not they’re already educated as an expert within the business, or they’re simply coming into it straight out of the gate as somebody who’s simply excited by buying actual property as a result of, for any of us who’ve been in it some time, there’s lots to be taught.
And you may make errors by shopping for too excessive. You may make errors by not assessing the price of repairs. You may make errors by overbuilding for the neighborhood. You may make… I imply, I may go on and on and on in regards to the errors buyers make. And so yeah, that might be a complete present by itself to be trustworthy with you.

Rob:
Yeah. So what are among the merchandise that you just guys supply that you just’ve developed particularly for the buyers and customers? Since you talked in regards to the use case, particularly within the banking world, proper. You’re serving to the secondary markets. The lenders approve of the property situations earlier than they’re taking up these new loans and every little thing. Is there something because it pertains on the planet extra simply on a smaller scale for the investor shopper?

Teresa:
Yeah. So in case you go to ReConsortia proper now and also you’re a shopper, you mint your property token. We simply cost the price of minting the token. We’ll do a free property tax lookup so that you can see if your home is eligible for property tax financial savings. The typical quantity of the financial savings is $4,600. And that work, that enchantment work, is finished at no cost upfront after which paid for upon success. And there’s 93% success price. In order that is only one instance of product that’s layered into Consortia.
I feel my mic lower out for a second. That’s simply one of many merchandise that’s layered into Consortia. One other one is an equipment inspection report. In order that equipment inspection report will inform you precisely the standing of your equipment if there have been any recollects, and the helpful lifetime of that equipment. So now, as a shopper… And all these merchandise are supposed to assist the buyer in instances like this, the place everybody’s making an attempt to save cash. In order a shopper, do I am going and repair my washer, or do I simply go purchase a brand new one?
That’s sort of you’re enjoying Russian roulette with your individual checkbook on a regular basis. Like, “I don’t know what to do. How would I do know what’s… We’re debating that, proper.” Properly, sooner or later, there’s a breaking level the place you say, “I’m simply going to go to House Depot or Lowe’s, and I’m going to go purchase that new equipment as a result of it’s not price it to spend that service price of 250 or $500 to restore this merchandise.” And so, that’s simply one other instance of what we’re constructing into the system. That’s there. When you unlock and also you get into the system, all these goodies for the buyer are there.

Sheila:
And it’s home equipment and main mechanicals. So we included in that HVAC, and it’s the helpful life. I feel David talked about this earlier within the present. What’s the helpful life? If I’m a purchaser and I’m taking a look at a property, you should use this know-how and scan all of the home equipment, the new water heater, the HVAC. We even included {the electrical} panel. We needed to verify all the main mechanicals we may had been included as a result of that’s a giant deal once you’re shopping for a house, and all of the buyers on right here may use this as a result of then they may see, “Properly, am I going to have to switch that merchandise or is there a method or cheaper for me to restore it to have the ability to resell this property?”
That’s extremely helpful to buyers or customers. After which, for a vendor, it’s actually good for them to know what’s occurring of their dwelling so then they are often ready for negotiations. When somebody comes of… So they could ask me to switch this, or I should be ready. And it truly tells you the age since you’re scanning the barcode. So it truly offers you the precise age of that equipment based mostly on the barcode of when it was produced. After which it offers you the estimate of what’s the helpful life or what number of years left. And so, as a vendor, it’s truly very helpful as effectively.

Teresa:
However wait-

Rob:
Okay.

Teresa:
… there’s extra. There’s dwelling warranty-

Rob:
Ooh.

Teresa:
… that’s rolling out for $100. If you happen to’ve executed this, we name it the AIR report, or that was redundant, the AIR on the home equipment, Equipment Inspection Report. So as soon as that’s executed, $100 for dwelling guarantee, which is wonderful, particularly in case you’re an investor that’s in September.

David:
So that you’re saying that the house guarantee is cheaper in case you can present that the issues are much less prone to should be changed?

Teresa:
Precisely. So once you purchase dwelling guarantee, you simply decide a bundle. I’m going to purchase the silver, the gold or the platinum bundle. What does that imply? They don’t know something about what’s inside my home. So one in all my finest pals in the entire world. He’s the managing companion on the funding financial institution. I used to be an fairness companion at a worldwide funding financial institution.
So he purchased the founding father of Pixar his home. Each equipment he owns is like $10,000 or $20,000. So how does that insurance coverage firm know what their underwriting in Charles’s home? They don’t know. However in case you can truly doc that is Teresa’s home the place each equipment was constructed… was purchased from House Depot on a weekend particular, like open field particular, you recognize the danger is considerably much less. And I feel that data is gold to the insurance coverage corporations.

David:
So how lengthy earlier than it turns into, “Properly, we all know this demographic of individuals runs their dishwasher each two days as a substitute of daily, so it’s going to have 14% extra helpful life than someone else’s.” You’ll be able to see how large information making their method into properties is simply a matter of time as a result of it’s inefficient.
A house guarantee prices what it prices due to all of the individuals which can be going to make use of it once you don’t. These inefficiencies create issues being dearer than they’d usually be. And I can see that what you guys try to place collectively is one thing that can resolve for a few of these inefficiencies and total convey the price of all of this down. So what about lease rolls? Is that one thing that Consortia is engaged on as effectively?

Sheila:
Oh, my goodness.

Teresa:
That’s humorous. How’d you recognize that?

Sheila:
Oh my goodness.

Teresa:
Sure. Sure. Look, there’s one thing coming. It’s referred to as the Central Financial institution Digital Forex. Yeah, we’re engaged on that. It’s coming. I feel in Europe, they’re simply a lot extra progressive. They’re centuries older than us, 1000’s of years older than us, than our economic system right here.
However they’re simply extra progressive in each method, and it’s simply widespread information that there’s one thing new that’s coming within the forex there, and all of that is clear there. And yeah, we’re constructing for that over in Europe, and we’re going to convey that right here. In order that’s a part of our work with the Federal Reserve to map out what that appears like.

Rob:
Properly, I like all of this. And I imply, it looks like y’all are pioneering a whole lot of what I contemplate to be the way forward for actual property. I’m on board. Clearly, somebody like David is on board. We are able to see the advantages of it. However I’m questioning since you talked about how the actual property foyer is, I feel, what, the fifth largest or high 5…

Teresa:
Title.

Rob:
… title.

Teresa:
Title NAR is the biggest lobbying power on Capitol Hill, which is a Nationwide Affiliation of Realtors. Consortia is an NAR portfolio firm, not by mistake.

Rob:
Received it. Okay. That’s what I used to be going to ask as a result of it does sound like you’re disrupting lots. And so, on condition that title corporations on this world tends to be a bit of bit extra archaic, what’s the precise adoption of this complete factor trying like? It seems like, truthfully, I’m impressed that y’all are in a position to do that, however is it one thing that’s met with a ton of opposition from 99.9% of the actual property group?

Sheila:
No, truly, Teresa and I had been on a gathering this previous week with all of the heads of the biggest title corporations in America presenting this.

Rob:
And what did they are saying?

Sheila:
Properly, you’ve just a few individuals, like each group, which can be pushing again, that don’t perceive it, which can be scared. After which, you’ve all people else saying, “I need to do that. I’m going to name you after the decision.”

Rob:
Oh, okay.

Sheila:
So I feel everybody realizes there must be a change. I feel David talked about earlier in regards to the archaic system that has by no means modified for the reason that starting of actual property.

Rob:
Proper. Proper.

Sheila:
And we’re truly bringing about all of that change. So we’ve met with everybody from the White Home to senators to governors to all the main gamers in every a part of the house, to all the info corporations which can be information items which can be lacking within the recordsdata that might be invaluable to capital markets or secondary markets. And we have already got all of it truly in place, and we’re launching.
I imply, we’ve launched a part of it, however we’re launching the following section of it proper now. So it’s already dwell. We’re already doing this, and we now have international locations which have signed with us. We’re constructing merchandise for various international locations. So this isn’t a small venture, which is why we’re concerned with the White Home and the Federal Reserve, as a result of nobody else that we’ve met anyplace on the planet has considered or constructed what we now have constructed.

Rob:
Okay. Yeah. So the adoption actually shouldn’t be as gradual as one would suppose.

Sheila:
No. We thought it might take us 5 extra years.

Teresa:
Yeah.

Rob:
That’s fairly spectacular.

Teresa:
So it took a scorching second, not as a result of individuals opposed something that we’ve proposed, particularly right here on this podcast. As you may see, extra transparency helps all people from buyers, capital markets to the buyer. In order that wasn’t the opposition. It was extra of humanity getting their arms and their brains round this concept of a spreadsheet.
Though spreadsheets and ledgers have been round since 500 AD from the YAP Islands. That’s an enchanting story, and credit score to our enterprise companion over within the UK for educating us that. It’s only a matter of individuals being okay and comfy with this concept, and right here we’re right now. So it’s now selecting up steam. I feel Sheila joined the corporate, after which individuals had been like, “Wait, Sheila? Sheila, who did $50 billion of enterprise final 12 months, she’s been within the firm now? We get it. Okay.”

Rob:
Wow. Okay. Yeah. So I suppose it’s not essentially changing title corporations, and also you guys did point out that at first of the podcast. It’s extra like, I don’t know, a supplementary service or a method to sort of bolster and make the providers of a title firm stronger and extra fashionable.

Sheila:
Simply to be clear, we’re not changing anybody. We’re merely the platform. We’re transferring information. That’s it. We’re the copper piping that’s transferring the info from one group to a different group. Besides as a substitute of us getting one… having one focus, like many tech corporations, you meet deal with one piece of product or one product, they usually’re very siloed. Teresa and I are literally bringing all of them collectively. Take into consideration constructing a metropolis, and we’re the inspiration, and all these totally different corporations are constructed on Consortia, making their information out there to run by our piping to the opposite corporations which can be excited by that information.

David:
Sort of like what Elon Musk talks about his plan for Twitter. He desires it to be the app that everybody goes to for mainly every little thing.

Sheila:
Precisely.

David:
It’s a method of constructing it straightforward for the top consumer or the capital markets to have a spot that we go to. There’s so many issues in life that want one thing like that. Simply once more, once I was in legislation enforcement, it was wonderful what number of totally different information programs that we had for warrants. The dispatchers must run the identical individual’s data by 4 or 5 totally different programs typically, and the stuff would slip by the cracks as a result of there’s not one place you possibly can go to.
I all the time questioned why you couldn’t have a database the place all of the warrants are. So if someone killed somebody, we may discover it out faster. However it’s very troublesome when it makes everybody’s jobs more durable. Now, the tougher it’s, the extra individuals should be employed to do it, the extra they should cost for his or her time and their threat, the extra that that will get handed on to the top consumer. So I can see how invaluable that is. You’ve clearly been constructing this firm with a protracted future in thoughts. What do you see for the longer term by way of forex?

Rob:
Identical to a bit of mild query there for the top of the podcast.

Teresa:
Thanks, David, for the heavy, heavy. So every little thing goes digital. Shoppers have already voted with their cash, pun meant. We have now adopted Zelle, PayPal, Venmo, all of the Braintree corporations which can be on the market. We already try this. We count on on-line banking. We count on immediate settlement. Like what we had been complaining about earlier, just like the hiccup in title and shutting, we’re spoiled, and we requested for it. We requested for forex to maneuver sooner. And so right here we go. The central banks of the world are issuing that. So all of this exists now. It’s simply turning into extra clear and extra clear. So it’s going to come back out in two alternative ways, this new forex.
It’s going from the highest down, which is, for instance, actual property, massive transaction objects, and it’s going to be a flood-up impact, which is from the customers who’re receiving social welfare, the underbanks, the unbanked individuals, the individuals utilizing verify cashing. So all these people who find themselves… Do you know individuals who pay for verify cashing spend as much as a 3rd of their earnings, a 3rd of their top-line income simply to get entry to maneuver cash? That’s insane to me. These are the poorest of the poor. And so we’re fixing for thus many social points, social justice points, and we’ve already requested for it. We’re already on bank cards. It’s simply the following iteration of that. I feel what we now have to watch out about is what’s reality and what’s fiction.
There’s a whole lot of fiction, for instance, that’s on Twitter proper now about what all these things will do. And I do suppose we want extra readability from the Federal Reserve. And Consortia’s push the Federal Reserve for extra data for customers to make it possible for this transition actually occurs with no hitch, with out inflicting civil unrest and worry on the market within the economic system. So it’s been fairly an honor for us to be a part of that dialog and to then share what we all know of the way it’s going to alter economics and the transference of cash with most people.

Sheila:
Can I add a few issues to that? Primary, I don’t suppose most individuals understand. Many of the world doesn’t have banking. Most individuals on the planet don’t have the flexibility to have a financial institution as a result of they will’t afford it. However oddly sufficient, most individuals have a cellular phone. So the flexibility to transact in your telephone with digital forex goes to alter the world, Teresa talked about, social economically since you’re going to have a whole lot of these unbanked individuals with the ability to now have financial institution accounts by their telephones that they didn’t have the flexibility to have prior to now, primary.
Quantity two, Teresa was mentioning the Fed, and one of many issues we’ve talked to them about particularly is the schooling that we’re working with them on to push by NAR by your entire actual property group and to customers as a result of individuals are scared about what they don’t know. And it was superior to listen to the gentleman who helped… We’re working with the a number of Fed places of work across the nation who’re concerned on this venture and the one that is operating it and created it out of Boston. And one of many issues that we had been instructed by one of many heads of the Chicago Fed is that the banks requested for this. That we created this as a result of a whole lot of the smaller group banks or the impartial banks couldn’t compete with the large boys within the providers they provided or the price charges that they provided as a result of they didn’t have the scale and the cash and the programs to have the ability to compete.
So that is going to degree the enjoying floor for all the different banks across the nation to have the ability to supply the providers and supply the charges so that individuals aren’t overcharged to degree the enjoying floor between the large boys and the smaller individuals. So we liked realizing that the Fed is doing this, once more, as a result of they’re making an attempt to serve all people. They’re making an attempt to verify everybody has entry. Everybody can have a checking account. Everybody might be protected and transfer cash rapidly. So I assumed that that was necessary to say.

David:
Properly, women, thanks to your time right now, Sheila. If anyone desires to achieve out or be taught extra about you, the place can they go?

Sheila:
Properly, they will attain out to Teresa and I on reconsortia.com, R-E-C-O-N-S-O-R-T-I-A.com. Or you may Immediate Message us on Fb or Instagram. We’re on all of these platforms as effectively. However most likely reaching out to us by Consortia is the best and quickest method to get ahold of us.
