These days, spoken or unspoken “Thank Yous” are more important than ever. There are plenty of things in our world and in our lives that can make us feel worried or even angry. Those thoughts need to be balanced with genuine acknowledgements of the good in our lives – both people and situations.
The Q2 2023 Metro Denver commercial real estate (CRE) data shows that the industrial and office markets are both softening. The turning point is very recent on the industrial side, but the decline in the office market segment represents the continuation of a multi-year trend.
“Give a man a fish, and you will feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
We’ve all heard this adage before in one form or another, and its origin is somewhat fuzzy. But the principle comes through loud and clear. The best way to help our fellow man is to give them the tools to be successful. For our team at Fountainhead Commercial, that principle guides how we support our clients as well as our community.
We don’t take credit for our clients’ business success, and we can’t make them successful. Our role is to place them in the right physical environment with the best terms so they can put all their focus into successfully operating and growing their businesses. We literally place them in a position to succeed.
At Fountainhead Commercial, we believe in the adage, “Work hard, then play hard.” Of course, we’re meticulous when learning about our clients’ needs and then taking all necessary steps to achieve their best possible commercial real estate outcomes. But we’re also passionate about enjoying the great outdoor recreational opportunities colorful Colorado and the southwest have to offer.
When the work/play worlds intersect, life is good, like when we go fly fishing or golfing (that would be Lowrey) or mountain biking or hiking 14ers (that would be Justin) with a prospect or client. After all, you don’t really get to know a person over coffee or lunch or at a networking event. Those interactions have a vital role, but we’ve found that shared recreational experiences can add building blocks to an enduring business relationship foundation.
Two of the most enjoyable aspects of the Christmas holiday are reminiscing about Christmases past and creating new memories in the Christmas present. We’d like to share a few personal thoughts along those lines – and we hope your Christmas memories and activities traditions are equally blessed.
