Protecting Older California Homes from Earthquake Damage – biggest program expansion ever

YourUpdateTV

According to the California Earthquake Authority (which supports and oversees CRMP with Cal OES), there are more than 1.2 million houses in California built before 1980 in high-hazard areas that are vulnerable to collapse or destruction by sliding off the foundation during a strong earthquake. Recently, Chief Mitigation Officer at the California Earthquake Authority, Janiele Maffei, conducted a satellite media tour to spread critical awareness about the importance of seismic retrofits and share resources to help California Homeowners protect their home from earthquake damage. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/bOtBz633hZk On January 10, the California Residential Mitigation Program (CRMP) kicked off the 2024 Earthquake Brace + Bolt (EBB) open registration, during which California homeowners can apply for up to $3,000 in grants to retrofit qualifying pre-1980 homes. Supporting this effort will be an education campaign focused on ZIP Code eligible areas, which aims to spread critical awareness about the grant period, earthquake safety, and residential mitigation including Eureka, San Francisco, Salinas/Monterey, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Palm Springs and San Diego. Registration for the 2024 EBB grant program continues through February 21st. Overall, EBB hopes to provide funding for approximately 6,000 seismic retrofits this year. EBB grants help offset the cost of seismic retrofits that brace the crawl space walls of older homes, when present, and bolt houses to their foundations, making them less vulnerable to earthquake damage. In the ten years since it began, the EBB program has assisted more than 23,000 homeowners in strengthening their homes against earthquake damage. The EBB grant program is administered by the California Residential Mitigation Program ( CRMP ) a Joint Powers Authority between the California Earthquake Authority ( CEA ) and the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services ( Cal OES ). Homeowners in 815 high-risk ZIP Codes can apply for grants of up to $3,000 to offset the cost of a seismic retrofit that can help lessen the potential for damage during an earthquake. In addition, income-eligible homeowners can qualify for supplemental grants – amounts vary depending on the region and type of retrofit completed. These supplemental grants may cover up to 100 percent of the cost of a seismic retrofit. Seismic retrofits covered by the EBB program are completed by FEMA trained contractors and can help reduce damage to a house in the event of a destructive earthquake by bracing existing cripple walls in the crawl space with plywood and bolting the home to its foundation. Since 2014, more than 23,000 EBB retrofits have been completed. The new EBB registration period coincides with the 30th Anniversary of the Northridge Earthquake, a damaging 6.7 magnitude earthquake that struck early in the morning of January 17th, 1994. It caused an estimated $20 billion dollars in damages and 57 deaths and led to the State legislature creating the CEA in 1996. To learn more about the retrofit grant visit: EarthquakeBraceBolt.com About Janiele Maffei: Janiele Maffei was hired as CEA’s first Chief Mitigation Officer in May 2011 and became Director of Research in 2015. Currently her responsibilities include managing the California Residential Mitigation Program (CRMP) and that program’s first retrofit incentive program-- Earthquake Brace and Bolt (EBB); various research projects that will benefit the strategic insurance, mitigation, and education goals of CEA; and other mitigation efforts that will benefit both policyholders and California homeowners. Thanks to EBB, more than 22,000 California homeowners have completed a code-compliant seismic retrofit. Janiele and her team often hear the sentiment from homeowners that they can now sleep better at night. Janiele is proud to be part of the effort helping a growing number of California families live in more resilient housing. Janiele attended University of California Berkeley, earning an AB in Architecture and an MS in engineering. Following that, she obtained her civil and structural engineering licenses. In 2017, Janiele was inducted into the Distinguished Alumni Association of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at UC Berkeley. Prior to joining CEA, she served as the President of the Northern California Chapter of the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI). She then joined the National board of EERI as Secretary Treasurer for six years, ending in 2017. In 2018 she became Vice President of the Structural Engineers Association of Northern California and assumed the role of President in 2019. Additionally, Janiele regularly participates in the EERI Visiting Professionals Program, speaking at California colleges and universities, encouraging students to consider careers in earthquake engineering. Janiele enjoys theater, travel, family, and music. Her international travel has exposed her to the rich diversity of our planet, and she considers herself fortunate to have had the privilege of visiting over 45 countries. About Earthquake Brace + Bolt (EBB) Established by the California Residential Mitigation Program, EBB offers up to $3,000 to help California homeowners retrofit their house to reduce potential damage from earthquakes.

The Seventy Ninth Group

Seventy Ninth Group, an asset management company headquartered in North West England, operating globally, has successfully listed its new commercial real estate offering - 79 th Commercial Three (CM3) - on the Vienna Stock Exchange, Wiener Börse A G. The milestone marks another significant achievement for the Seventy Ninth Group in 2023, following its statement of intent to list its resources business – Seventy Ninth Resources – on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSXV), and it underpins the firm’s commitment to international regulatory standards. The firm’s real estate strategy for investment focuses on transforming undervalued and underutilised traditional office space into dynamic units for SMEs, to accommodate new, hybrid ways of working following the COVID 19 pandemic. It is an approach which has enabled Seventy Ninth Group to create value within the market and for investors, despite current commercial property market conditions. In late 2022, the firm successfully acquired its first asset for this strategy, Millennium Park in Cheshire, UK. Millennium Park is a 10,000sq ft commercial property that was previously home to one large company and is now being transformed into 59 separate workspaces for the SME market. Curtis Webster, Investment Director at the Seventy Ninth Group comments; “The listing of our 79 th Commercial Three offering on the Vienna Stock Exchange is a fantastic way to enter the new year.” “Since listing, we have seen a flurry of family office, corporate and institutional capital commit to our offering.” “As our offerings continue to outperform traditional investment products, awareness of the Seventy Ninth Group continues to grow with our investors around the globe.” Seventy Ninth Group appointed the Dublin office of Matheson LLP, an international law firm to list the offering, with the London Stock Exchange (LSE) providing the ISIN (International Stock Identification Numbers). Curtis Webster continues; “On behalf of Seventy Ninth Group, I would like to thank our professional advisors for their input and invaluable support."

The Reason Behind Optimism's Price Correction, Are Arbitrum and Everlodge Good Alternatives

Everlodge

In this article, we make sense of the fluctuating prices of Arbitrum, Optimism, and Everlodge, and explore their respective tokens ARB, OP and ELDG. Optimism’s token unlocks bring both good and bad The Optimism token (OP) has been defying the odds and pumping hard despite extreme inflationary pressure over the last year. OP is up 225% this past year and 86% last month, massively outperforming Ethereum. This epic rise has occurred despite OP's circulating supply quadrupling from 214 million tokens at the start of 2022 to over 911 million now. Typically such rapid token unlocking craters a cryptocurrency's value. And a few days after the token unlock we did indeed see a correction in the price, which is currently down 21% since its all-time high 10 days ago. But from a macro perspective, Optimism is still doing very well. Optimism's rise seems tied to scheduled upcoming retroactive airdrops and incentives for new stakeholders spanning governance, partners, and public goods funding. Rather than fearing this inflation, investors appear to be betting on it attracting even more interest and contributors to the ecosystem long-term. Similar network token rallies have already played out for the likes of Avalanche, Arbitrum, Ethereum, Near, and Solana. History shows that the biggest gains often happen among smaller cap coins building on these platforms, such as Everlodge which is building on Ethereum. Arbitrum and Optimism have a lot in common Like Optimism, Arbitrum is another Layer 2 blockchain that utilizes optimistic rollups to scale Ethereum. Both help tackle congestion, high fees, and latency by batching and validating transactions off-chain before settling on Ethereum. These technical similarities have attracted major DeFi apps like Uniswap to deploy across both Arbitrum and Optimism. Just as Optimism endured supply shocks from token unlocks, Arbitrum braces for impact from its own upcoming unlocks. In March 2024, Arbitrum will release over 1.1 billion ARB tokens worth nearly $1 billion - 87% of the circulating supply. This threatens short-term downward price action. Yet over the long term, Arbitrum’s incentives and distribution to key stakeholders echo Optimism’s goal of fortifying its ecosystem to drive adoption. Once selling pressure eases after the unlocks, the outlook remains strong for both Layer 2’s as infrastructure improves and fees remain low compared to Ethereum mainnet. Their ambitious token models weather near-term volatility by ensuring the shared community ownership required for sustainability. However, ARB, like OP has gone up a lot already and may now face volatility due to the continuing unlocks for the next few years. And this is why many investors are turning to smaller cap coins such as Everlodge, to get bigger gains. Everlodge - a bullish new idea without sell pressure As Layer 2s like Arbitrum and Optimism battle their token unlocks and corresponding volatility, Everlodge presents a fresh alternative devoid of such supply shocks. And those bullish on Ethereum can capitalize by buying this smaller cap token, which is still in presale. By minting luxury hotels and villas into property-backed NFTs, Everlodge's novel model allows owning a slice of a vacation property for as little as $100. As asset values appreciate, so too do the linked NFTs. A well-designed marketplace will enable seamless trading of these blockchain properties. Through fractional Real World Asset tokenization, Everlodge will make global real estate investment accessible to anyone. Everlodge overcomes illiquidity and the opacity hindering traditional vacation home investing. And perhaps most importantly, makes it accessible to ordinary investors who don’t have hundreds of thousands of dollars to sink into just one property or asset. Integral to Everlodge's ecosystem is its ELDG token, built on Ethereum. ELDG provides tangible utility which is important for price. Holders will enjoy discounts on property purchases, trading fees, and maintenance costs. Similar to timeshare benefits, ELDG holders even receive complimentary annual stays at Everlodge properties. These can be enjoyed personally or resold at a profit to others. Given that ELDG is on offer at $0.029 and will launch for $0.039, there’s a significant upside throughout the presale alone. When the token goes live on Ethereum and major CEXs and DEXs, the price may rise as much as 3,000%. Visit Everlodge Everlodge provides you with a seamless approach to fractional investing in vacation rentals, eliminating the complexities associated with traditional real estate investment. Our innovative platform revolutionizes the way people invest in second homes. Contact Details Brett admin@everlodge.io Company Website https://everlodge.io/

While this quick rise is related to the cryptocurrency market regaining bullish momentum, particularly in 2024, AVAX's impressive performance has now positioned it among investors’ favourites. The surge in AVAX price can also be attributed to other factors including the recent staking activities that have temporarily removed a significant number of tokens from circulation, creating a favorable scarcity that often triggers increased demand. Additionally, major banks are actively adopting RWA tokenization, a move that has also played a pivotal role in propelling AVAX value, with Avalanche being a major player in the field. As the crypto market witnesses fluctuations, AVAX stands resilient, bucking the trend and outperforming many other cryptocurrencies. This surge has positioned AVAX as an attractive option for those seeking a promising crypto to buy in the current market landscape. Timely Insights: Ethereum’s (ETH) Post-Halving Performance As Ethereum (ETH) navigates the post-halving landscape, industry experts anticipate significant gains in 2024. Analysts predict a bullish trajectory for ETH, fueled by upcoming upgrades and institutional adoption. Ethereum’s current status also reveals a robust start to January 2024, with ETH trading at $2,420. With ongoing developments and a positive performance outlook, ETH emerges as a key player in the dynamic cryptocurrency landscape. Looking ahead, future price forecasts and predictions for the ERC20 token remain positive. Everlodge (ELDG) Up Over 190% Everlodge (ELDG) has gained significant attention, surging by an impressive 190%, making it a focal point in the crypto market. One key aspect that sets Everlodge apart is its unique utilities. ELDG, the native utility token of Everlodge, offers holders exclusive benefits, including discounts, rewards, and a central role within the Everlodge ecosystem. This distinctive feature has positioned Everlodge as more than just a cryptocurrency, offering a comprehensive platform for its users. Examining the price movements of Everlodge (ELDG) reveals its dynamic nature. On a monthly basis, the token has demonstrated substantial growth, aligning with the ongoing presale information available at Everlodge's official website. The presale, currently ongoing, presents a strategic opportunity for investors to acquire ELDG tokens at a favorable rate of $0.029 each. This presale information is crucial for those looking to capitalize on Everlodge's potential. The future price and predictions for Everlodge (ELDG) are optimistic. Supported by data and statistics, experts foresee a remarkable 3,000% surge after ELDG hits exchanges in 2024. This projection aligns with the ongoing positive sentiment surrounding Everlodge's performance in the crypto market. As investors seek the best cryptocurrency to buy, Everlodge stands out not only for its recent surge but also for the promising outlook supported by concrete data. Meanwhile, Everlodge's rise and unique utilities, coupled with its promising presale dynamics and future projections, make it a compelling choice for investors seeking the best cryptocurrency to include in their portfolios.

Ballast Rock Announces 2023 Year-End Performance of its Sunbelt Real Estate Funds

Ballast Rock

Ballast Rock, the diversified investment management firm, today announced 2023 year-end performance of its two multifamily real estate funds. Sunbelt Multifamily Fund II (SB2), which launched in 2021, closed the acquisition of its final asset in early 2023, bringing total assets in the fund to $105,363,000. The fund has acquired a total of 1,049 units, with an equity contribution of $52,452,012. The fund generated cash from operations for its investors of 7% in 2023. SB2 maintained an average capitalization rate of 7.2% for the year, with 7% in the first half and 7.4% in the second half of 2023. SB2 paid 7.5% from income to investors in 2021, 7.5% from income in 2022, and now will have paid 7% to investors in 2023 from income. “In a challenging year when we saw many private equity real estate funds calling additional capital or halting payments, we were pleased that our focus on workforce multifamily in high growth states in the Southeast delivered results for our investors,” said Thomas Carroll, Chief Executive Officer of Ballast Rock. “This performance is a shared success, since all of our principals invest our own capital alongside our investors, aligning our interests, and delivering safe, clean, and affordable homes for residents in our communities.” Ballast Rock had anticipated launching Sunbelt Multifamily III (SB3) in 2023 but did not identify a property that met its strict qualitative and quantitative underwriting standards. Over the course of 2023, the company performed diligence on more than 350 potential assets but chose to not pursue any acquisitions based on price discipline and the expectation that sponsors that bought assets in 2021 and 2022 at the wrong price with too much floating rate debt are likely going to need to sell in 2024 and 2025 as they will be unable to refinance those deals on economic terms. Ballast Rock’s Atlanta-based real estate team continues to identify and perform diligence on several properties and anticipates a launch of the $100 million Sunbelt Multifamily Fund III in 2024, subject to finding the right properties at the right price. “We remain committed that our focus on workforce housing in the Southeast is the right strategy, and we anticipate that there will be excellent opportunities to acquire the right properties at attractive valuations in the coming months,” said Ian Garcia, Chief Operating Officer of Ballast Rock Real Estate. “We will continue to actively underwrite assets, but we will never sacrifice our diligence or discipline.” Ballast Rock launched Sunbelt Multifamily Fund I (SB1) in 2019 and between February 2019 and January 2021 acquired nine properties totaling 1,110 apartment units for $63,630,000. SB1 began dispositions in early 2022, generating gross proceeds of $60,450,000 from the first four properties sold. The 593 apartment units involved were acquired at an average cost of $53,583 per unit and sold at an average cost of $101,939 per unit. Thus far SB1 has made a total of $41,963,582 of investor distributions on $30,000,000 of equity invested in the fund. Ballast Rock anticipates exiting the remaining five assets in SB1 opportunistically over the next 12 to 18 months. Also in 2023, Ballast Rock launched Ballast Rock Capital, its broker-dealer. Ballast Rock Capital is a member of the Financial Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
