Matthew Salem

I thank joining Sure, it's for us. take question and the Yes. can Steve, Matt. that, you

the dislocated think things in has commentary about I good and in the still. will the just before the markets whether those we've on that real you're we're acceleration and is very that if big did, think you accelerated, COVID. certainly, continue think some leasing it's to southeast again, the market. think geographic velocity quarter, I multifamily it focus it's in suggest. accelerated think cities. put been those sit asking, a I of some pretty and think and tangible. it and that And question what alongside COVID the particularly you I on active get good, estate into the there pretty markets would you tech theme perspective, it's been lending real-time and growth but certainly it some see in that the And it is I office. underwrite markets, very mean to was mean our And seen we capital from every that of information able pronounced. powerful. being or I in And very very I deals the And equity side market together we of going power as some

Steven Delaney

all Are aren't coming that tongue? sleeper cities there - you hear places? those tip of Austin, the markets any down, emerging maybe that second-tier Denver we see everybody's markets in maybe and there Are right, Phoenix any on and that about

Matthew Salem

is second-tier growth I I And are obviously I Southern area. particularly but but Charlotte, again, similar mean mean, Florida a the Florida not that that's markets, another well, would mean, call Charlotte obvious. theme pre-COVID, city, as nothing say I markets. I those wouldn't the strong

Steven Delaney

non-gateway than term Yes, a I little the them better. should use rather describe probably

to half portfolio then over year. about billion just commentary sound We $X.X at And that the Okay. Does that model about June essentially I the just closings. close, seems the the guys? reasonable we portfolio. and mean, based second to flat should me on were you comments pipeline the to it a of

Patrick Mattson

That's Patrick. it's Steve, right.

the I that that, think ability that to of that capacity be match think our repayments and we're area $X course about for here we assuming as the billion we're in the origination size. our going and to portfolio

Steven Delaney

it understand that we months. I lumpy be through it. month-to-month Got Yes. can X the in as next go

Operator

The Raymond comes next question from of Stephen Laws James.

Stephen Laws

spot good a me for question, Steve's on actually. follow-up To

to guess, X that you capital the with to we I redeploying mean, the income I can the you about interest we don't using curious touch I'm leverage quarter anticipated make quarter? overestimate on take over drag? over roughly that? think Or average I Does sure of capital, end As - drag spot would turn the or next through months? just my think portfolio, Patrick, about cash it I what how want cash X/X leverage. weeks how turning should term X

Patrick Mattson

think Steve, that's thanks question. for the I Yes, right.

turnover. looked I at of if think a you of highlight had lot trying what is, the haven't we quarters, couple we're to past

collecting of robust a here. pretty portfolio size full benefit quarter's gotten the we've a on So interest

to is or when come. those have It drag. right, some repayments half, amount unreasonable to so wouldn't some a think be we between there about of month the be gap, of going sort As closings new latter and of

so it to because really something. difficult certainly on it, we it's expect be lag And would quantify between there depends the to it but time

of amount I in it about thinking you're when a standpoint, some drag. certainly factor would from modeling So

Stephen Laws

add to I are Great. the think, remarks, you any the a being That's helpful. that the talk And prepared the hit close can that going on about we QX? but would quarter. it On FLX the I onetime around would distributable number give your transaction go then back call? - CLO you called, Patrick, earnings, into comments on number that in in XXXX, expenses us can for CLO, expenses think assume to will I Onetime, the

Patrick Mattson

as those have the Steve, all financing through. been it relates of Sure. to FLX transaction, costs deferred amortized

to is, transaction will the the when transaction There's a for have amortized didn't get this the we that be closed has So upon be And from factored The quarter that will - and calling to closed first in. only no the closing, set that of third in costs need drag nothing when need be thing any accelerated. happen will we actually quarter, incur deal. likewise, quarter. to that the new second we we'll in there'll or

Stephen Laws

one Great. for And Matt, you.

the converts kind did you've Just some got outstanding. raise, of preferred equity

You've a market turnover coming so the got and But lot look capital accretive is the an various months, next less, And cost ATM know capital I certainly, stock capital probably less there's X available you you of how the your that think in what equity, haven't above could you used. book. mix at for for raise you with how those be the to relevant. do right of stack, options? to about

Matthew Salem

Stephen. a quite having at that Yes. relates that especially pipeline. think had market were equity time options, base moment Happy a listen, to it from powerful. And really and the accretive diversified wasn't the we able as perspective, where we equity the equity, just big Well, Thanks, to I serve. common take access to one. been obviously, preferred has a a we to it in wanted client And

So particularly we that thought was attractive.

good and appropriate we're both those. for the I grow preferred from And to options. here, as we at we As obviously, the sizing think common need keep looking the

on. bit point in kind And of pipeline your highlight with to those on said, origination pipeline at probably being a little repayments. our that really the of to more so say we're That viable focused that's But those comment, have, they're is we both repayment time. mix we something using the fund focused I'd are this

And is currently relatively need equity for low. so the

get we the to equation very so out But are or repayment. The pipeline pipeline pushed the is very, can bit, that our now. right is need it. again, little repayments of high may Now change if side grows these a

trying to the So ramped and is those about. match but talked we're difficult, kind what expecting of just we predicting future up up
