We get asked this question a lot (are construction costs continuing to rise?) - The short answer is yes - See below for the longer answer.

"Oil prices, pushed higher by the Iran conflict, made a significant contribution to the increase, yet the greater concern is the price growth in tariff-affected inputs like iron, steel and copper." -ABC Chief Economist @SageAnirban.

Look who I bumped into in DC at the NADCO Spring Summit! My good friend Derek Ezovski is an SBA star! 2026 CT Small Businessperson of the Year!
@Sentry_Comm@NADCO504@dezovski
Starting the week in our nations' capital with Louis Silva and Ralph Richard at the NADCO: National Association of Development Companies 2026 Spring Summit representing @CICLending.
Honored to have the opportunity to serve and support small businesses in our region.

Don’t fear AI in your #CRE service providers—in fact, demand it. Firms not using AI responsibly are delivering slower, lower‑quality outcomes. Period.
@Sentry_Comm@SIORglobal
Numerous conversations with tech companies recently.
- Some are killing it and others continue to tell me their next upgrade is "coming soon" (how long is "soon"?).
- No, we don't want more tech. We want more productivity...but less tech (if you are stand-alone, you are likely doomed - Too many names in our tech-stack).

#SIORSpring26 takeaway. Less conversation on how AI works on one-off, individual tasks. More talk about AI being embedded in process. AI being embedded in the enterprise.
It’s evolving!

5 days at #SIORSpring26 in Palm Springs CA. Worth every minute.
Expanding my world, my relationships, learning, caring, sharing, watching college students experience the magic of the SIOR Experience. It doesn't get any better than that.
@SIORglobal@Sentry_Comm#CRE@UConn
Thank you to all of our team at @Sentry_Comm. We can talk process, tech, systems etc all day. But when it comes down to it, we are nothing without you.
Start with Someone Who Cares
The REC New Haven. Coming soon to 545 Long Wharf Drive!
More connecting, creating, and collaborating.
(With maybe even a couple of twists)

Round 2️⃣ of the throwback series — six more of the people behind the work at Sentry Commercial.
Behind the titles and day-to-day responsibilities, it’s always been about the people.
On the phone yesterday w a good friend & fellow SIOR. Looking at a new AI platform being developed. Question at the end. Is the effect of AI on the #CRE industry being overstated? Conclusion? By far understated AND misunderstood by practitioners.
@SIORglobal@Sentry_Comm
Believe it or not. Many of us folks in the northeast love this! I hit the slopes again today. Hoping to hit’em in 2 weeks with my 3 year old grandson for his first ever run.

Happy New Year everyone! Lots of resolutions out there. For me, it starts w reaffirmation:
Do what you say you are going to do (75% of success is just showing up).
2026…make it a good one.
@Sentry_Comm@SIORglobal#StartWithSomeoneWhoCares#Trust#Reliable
