WHAT WE ARE WRITING, READING AND LISTENING TO

Edited Building picture with blue sky_edited.jpg

POINTBLANK RESEARCH · VOLUME I

Neighborhood Infrastructure

Office and mixed-use in established Sunbelt neighborhoods: why demand concentrates on a small number of streets, what that does to rent and vacancy through cycles, and how PBV underwrites it.

POINTBLANK RESEARCH · VOLUME II

The Neighborhood Is the Amenity

Multifamily in exceptional neighborhood locations: boutique and middle-market assets where the neighborhood, not the amenity package, sets the rent. Follows Volume I.

READING

EMERGING TRENDS IN REAL ESTATE 2026

ULI AND PWC

​The broadest annual read on where capital thinks it is going, market by market. We watch how the Sunbelt markets rank and, more usefully, why: the reasons cited are usually neighborhood reasons.

2025 HOSPITALITY & RETAIL GUIDE

POINTBLANK VENTURES

Our guide to the food, beverage and hospitality operators shaping ground floors across our markets, and what their choices say about where a neighborhood is headed.

STAKEHOLDER LETTERS

POINTBLANK VENTURES, ANNUAL

Year-end letters to partners and investors, starting with 2024.

LISTENING

POWERS WITH CHRIS POWERS (FORMERLY THE FORT)

PODCAST | SPOTIFY

Long conversations with operators and investors about how real estate businesses are actually built. The closest thing to sitting in on someone else's partner meeting.

INVEST LIKE THE BEST

PODCAST | SPOTIFY

Patrick O'Shaughnessy's interviews with investors and founders. Rarely about real estate, which is the point: the best ideas on capital, alignment and building durable firms come from outside the industry.

MASTERS OF MOMENTS

PODCAST | SPOTIFY

Jake Wurzak on hospitality and the businesses built around how people spend their time. Useful for thinking about ground floors, and about Tipsy Pickle.
