reAlpha Looks to Democratize Investment Access to Short-Term Rental Market Amidst Record Consumer Demand

  • reAlpha seeks to provide retail investors with fractional ownership in lucrative short-term rental properties
  • The short-term rental market has seen a significant rise in popularity, with Airbnb recently releasing record revenues during its second-quarter results briefing
  • reAlpha sees an opportunity to meet consumer demand by deploying as much as $1.5 billion to create a short-term rental property portfolio numbering close to 5,000 properties
  • The company’s goal is to democratize investment access to the sector while simultaneously generating higher yields offered up by short-term rental properties
In early August 2021, Airbnb (NASDAQ: ABNB) reported second-quarter revenues that astounded the market. Revenues in the second quarter of 2021 came in at $1.34 billion, nearly four times higher than in the equivalent period in 2020, and up 10 percent over 2019. The quarter also heralded both Airbnb’s “strongest quarterly revenue on record” as well as its single “biggest” night of bookings. reAlpha is a cutting-edge technology company launching a platform to democratize the real estate market. The innovative startup plans to do so by providing retail investors with the ability to invest in the $1.2 trillion short-term rental market, capitalizing on the growing popularity of the Airbnb platform in diversified short-term rental property portfolios (https://ibn.fm/uE6mA). Dublin, Ohio-based reAlpha recently announced plans to spend as much as $1.5 billion, including debt, to build a unique and geographically diversified short-term rental portfolio, with reAlpha Chief Executive Officer, Giri Devanur stating that the deployed funds would be enough to purchase roughly 5,000 homes (https://ibn.fm/jzF9I). The company will employ proprietary artificial intelligence software to evaluate existing home listings and garner appropriate property valuations. Initially, the company will target specific cities in Florida, California, and Texas, where it can rapidly scale, acquiring between 100 to 500 homes. The company has also revealed that it will seek ways to lower its acquisition expenses, including potentially purchasing homes from the wholesale real estate market, which currently is only available to large-scale buyers. “We can analyze thousands of properties in a minute. For us, everything is through technology” Devanur said. A recent study from the University of California, Los Angeles (https://ibn.fm/3xxZI) sought to delve deeper into the historical total returns of single-family home rentals in the United States. The study, which covered a nearly 30-year period between 1986 and 2014, found that real estate investments delivered a near 8.5 percent total annualized return, comprising 4.2 percent rental income and 4.3 percent price appreciation. However, in certain locations, opting to rent out properties on a short-term basis could lead rental yields to more than double. Through its proprietary platform, reAlpha will seek to provide retail investors with access to the superior returns linked to short-term rentals as well as to the potential capital appreciation drawn from a combination of property renovations and market appreciation. Giri Devanur elaborated on the company’s objectives: “reAlpha enables superior alpha yield by investing in short-term rental properties. We have simplified the entire process of investing and managing these properties using advanced technologies. This allows ‘Mainstreet’ investors to access the real estate investment market like never before,” (https://ibn.fm/7KqwM). For more information, visit the company’s website at www.reAlpha.com.

RYAH Group Inc. (CSE: RYAH) Provides Insight into Cannabis Medical Space in Brazil

  • Medical cannabis reform in Brazil is slowly taking shape
  • Challenges include the cost of medical cannabis products and medical cannabis patients living close to available access
  • With its background in connected devices, big data, and technology, RYAH appears well qualified to provide insight on medical cannabis around the world
While the cannabis world’s attention is often focused on what’s happening in North America, activity in Latin America may be making significant progress. For example, a recent blog post (https://ibn.fm/t36SM) from RYAH Group (CSE: RYAH) states that “Brazil, one of the region’s largest markets, is quietly, if incrementally, making advances toward a powerful medical cannabis program.” The blog, titled “Past, Present, and Future: Medical Cannabis in Brazil,” notes that “medical cannabis in Brazil may face some steep political hurdles, but the waves of reform are slowly making it possible for more patients to access more medicine.” The largest South American country both in size and population, Brazil boasts a GDP per capita of $15,388. “At the time of writing, there are several different estimates about the number of people currently authorized as medical cannabis patients,” the article continued. “For example, there may be 14,500 or more patients served by the country’s only legal patient association and 20,000 more citizens approved to import products into the country.” Observing that it’s unclear if there is any overlap in those numbers, the article explains three ways medical cannabis patients can obtain cannabis in the country: through a pharmacy, patient association, and imports. “For most patients in Brazil, medical cannabis products are far too expensive, and few people live close enough to the only patient association, ABRACE, to access more affordable options,” the blog explains. “Furthermore, unlike the medicinal options available in other countries, the Brazilian program primarily focuses on high-CBD, low-THC options.” While the country has faced challenges, RYAH notes that Brazil seems poised at the top of a crest. “Slow legislative reforms have been building for years, gradually offering patients more options for medical cannabis,” the article states. “But the country isn’t quite there yet. A few additional pieces need to fall into place to finally open the flood gates, including legalizing the local cultivation of medical cannabis and hemp. With the current political climate in the country pushing against the tide, it remains uncertain when this legislation will finally come to pass.” With its background in connected devices, big data, and technology, RYAH appears well qualified to provide insight on medical cannabis around the world. The company was granted the first patent granted in AI data analytics in plant-based medicine and owns one of the largest plant-based medicine databases in the world with more than 200,000 registered users. In addition, the company’s multiple IoT device portfolio is designed to capture a broader patient demographic and the clinical trial market.

Mariano, who stated that “America is forever changing, no more so than during the last year. Direct sellers have proven themselves time and again to be nimble microentrepreneurs, willing and able to serve their customers and communities within a changing environment. “The direct selling companies also adapted quickly to a world with changing needs by empowering their independent sellers with the tools to serve their customers and fellow sellers – innovative technology, updated health and safety policies, and second-to-none business support,” he continued. “During this time of uncertainty, Direct Selling Association and its members also worked to ensure that customers and salespeople alike can rely upon the highest level of business ethics.  The results are clear — a record-breaking year and an unequivocal demonstration that direct selling is dedicated to serving America.” Paul Bourquin, principal at Nathan Associates, said, “Since 1995, Nathan Associates has been proud to work with the DSA analyzing the Growth & Outlook Survey data and conducting extensive secondary research to develop industry-wide estimates for the U.S. direct selling industry.

With its strong tie to Stony Brook University in New York, StorEn Technologies fits the bill perfectly. Focused on offering innovative battery storage for the 21st century, StorEn Technologies is leading the way forward in the development of evolutionary vanadium flow batteries. The battery pioneer is currently in the middle of a Reg A offering, creating a unique opportunity for investors interested in the future of battery storage. StorEn is currently in the process of a RegA offering with four different investment tiers; each tier offers a different discount and reward (https://ibn.fm/E4IcJ).

Cybin Inc. (NEO: CYBN) (NYSE American: CYBN) Leading Out in Mental Health Treatment Innovation

  • WHO survey reports that mental health services in 93% of countries around the world have been disrupted or halted as a result of COVID-19
  • People with pre-existing mental, neurological or substance-use disorders are more vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection
  • Cybin is on a mission to revolutionize mental healthcare
A World Health Organization (“WHO”) survey covering 130 countries is calling attention to the fact that today’s demand for mental health, which has been rocked by the COVID-19 pandemic, is only increasing (https://ibn.fm/hzmXq). Cybin (NEO: CYBN) (NYSE American: CYBN) is focused on meeting that need and is committed to finding even more effective ways to help those struggling with mental health issues. “The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted or halted critical mental health services in 93% of countries worldwide while the demand for mental health is increasing, according to a new WHO survey,” a WHO news release reported. “The survey of 130 countries provides the first global data showing the devastating impact of COVID-19 on access to mental health services and underscores the urgent need for increased funding.” The release goes on to note that the underfunding of mental health issues is nothing new. “Prior to the pandemic, countries were spending less than 2% of their national health budgets on mental health, and struggling to meet their populations’ needs,” the release pointed out. “And the pandemic is increasing demand for mental health services. Bereavement, isolation, loss of income and fear are triggering mental health conditions or exacerbating existing ones. “Many people may be facing increased levels of alcohol and drug use, insomnia, and anxiety. Meanwhile, COVID-19 itself can lead to neurological and mental complications, such as delirium, agitation, and stroke. People with pre-existing mental, neurological or substance use disorders are also more vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection — they may stand a higher risk of severe outcomes and even death.” The report quotes the director-general of WHO, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. “Good mental health is absolutely fundamental to overall health and well-being. COVID-19 has interrupted essential mental health services around the world just when they’re needed most. World leaders must move fast and decisively to invest more in life-saving mental health programs — during the pandemic and beyond.” The survey only underscores the work that Cybin is doing. This game-changing company is keenly aware that more than 700 million people around the world are impacted with some sort of mental illness, addiction or eating disorder, and the company is on a mission to revolutionize mental healthcare. The innovative organization is focused on leveraging its expertise in the psychedelic therapeutic space to deliver proprietary drug-discovery platforms, innovative drug-delivery systems, novel formulation approaches and treatment regimens for psychiatric disorders. “We are focused on addressing the mental health crisis and transforming the treatment landscape,” the company’s website states. “To do that, we are combining technology and our scientific expertise to pair novel psychedelic molecules with controllable drug delivery systems, aimed at improving outcomes for patients.” For more information, visit the company’s website at www.Cybin.com.

Greenstone Belt Gold Potential Drives StraightUp Resources Inc. (CSE: ST) Survey Work in Ontario’s Rich Red Lake Mining District

  • StraightUp Resources is a mineral property acquisition and exploration company currently focused on potential production targets in Ontario, Canada’s historic Red Lake Mining District
  • StraightUp has options to four flagship properties that together comprise over 20,000 hectares (about 50,000 acres) in a region that has produced more than 30 million ounces of gold historically
  • The company announced this month that it has completed a high-resolution heli-borne magnetic survey (“MAG”) on its largest project that will help the company decide where potential gold mineralization worth further exploration may lie
  • The company’s efforts to fund its exploration work include a recently announced private placement offering and an initial financing tranche closing that raised C$301,100
Mineral explorer and acquisition company StraightUp Resources (CSE: ST) is making inroads on the evaluation of potential yields from flagship properties it has acquired options to in the well-known rich gold resource district within Ontario, Canada. StraightUp announced earlier this month that it had completed a high-resolution heli-borne magnetic survey (“MAG”) on the RLX North and RLX South properties that comprise the company’s largest area of operation currently — claims covering over 10,000 hectares (about 25,000 acres). The MAG survey consists of 2,985 line-km at 50-meter line intervals covering the entire property and the results will be used to help determine areas of potential gold mineralization and high-merit areas worthy of further exploration. “It is exciting to see how the adoption of technology has led to such advanced interpretation and with computer modelling, revolutionization of the industry,” StraightUp President and CEO Mark Brezer stated in a news release announcing the project’s status (https://ibn.fm/M3M5Z). “These projects are in the heart of the Red Lake Mining District, an area that is seeing a resurgence of gold bearing deposits that were overlooked in the past. RLX North and South almost completely surround Great Bear Resources Sobel Project and with our accumulated data from the region and upcoming MAG results, we can better pin-point future drill programs.” The Red Lake district is renowned for over 30 million ounces of historic gold production, and the RLX projects are situated near the Red Lake Mine complex that is the district’s largest gold deposit with estimated reserves of 3.23 million ounces as of a 2019 report (https://ibn.fm/qQtLi). The company regards the contact between the metavolcanic packages of north and south RLX properties as “highly prospective” for economic deposits of gold, or deposits that are formed in such a way that they can be mined out of economic interests. Most of the ore production that has taken place in the district historically has come from within a few hundred meters of the contact point, according to the company. The RLX properties are joined by other neighboring projects StraightUp has optioned, including the 6,600-hectare (16,308-acre) Ferdinand Gold Property, the 2,000-hectare (4,942-acre) Belanger property and the 1,944-hectare (4,803-acre) Bear Head Gold Project, which extend into a neighboring greenstone belt. As StraightUp evaluates the prospects of the properties, it continues to acquire financing for the projects. Concurrent with the announcement of completing the RLX MAG survey, the company announced a non-brokered financing to raise up to C$2 million through a private placement offering and the close of the first tranche of the financing, raising C$301,100 by issuing 1.5 million common shares and 752,750 warrants. The private placement offers one common share at a price of C$0.20 and one-half of a transferable common share purchase warrant, which can be used to buy an additional common share at a price of C$0.30 per whole warrant. The net proceeds will be used to fund upcoming exploration projects and other property expenditures. In June, the company received preliminary MAG survey results from its Ferdinand Gold Project and began ground work exploration there in August (https://ibn.fm/28CmC). In June the company also filed an NI 43-101 compliant technical report that recommends further exploration on the Belanger Property (https://ibn.fm/2de7C).

Delic Holdings Inc. (CSE: DELC) (OTCQB: DELCF) Looks Optimally Positioned to Benefit From Continued Growth Within the Psychedelic Wellness Sector

  • Delic has positioned itself as a leading psychedelic wellness platform, with businesses spanning all corners within the sector
  • Delic’s latest announced acquisition will make it the largest chain of operating psychedelic wellness clinics in the US
  • The psychedelic wellness sector has enjoyed robust growth as of late, following the FDA’s move towards granting psilocybin “breakthrough therapy” status in 2018
  • Denver and Oakland have been among the first US cities to decriminalize the use of psilocybin mushrooms with California currently studying whether to follow suit
  • The psychedelic drugs market is expected to reach a size of $10.75 billion by 2027
When Michael Pollard embarked on writing his seminal book, How to Change Your Mind in 2018, the psychedelic wellness industry was a far different world to what we know today (https://ibn.fm/SiWdt). Although the psychedelic industry boasts a long history in America dating back to the 1950s, it’s only in the last few years that scientific research into the world of psychedelics and its related compounds has uncovered their potential to relieve a wide array of mental suffering, including depression, anxiety, and addiction. Delic Holdings (CSE: DELC) (OTCQB: DELCF) has sought to capitalize on the ongoing transformation within the sector, positioning itself as the leading psychedelic wellness platform committed to bringing science-backed benefits to all and reframing the psychedelic conversation. Originally formed in 2019 to address the growing interest within the science-backed psychedelic wellness sector, Delic has transformed itself into a sprawling conglomerate with services spanning all areas within the sector. The company’s related businesses now include trusted media and e-commerce platforms like Reality Sandwich and Delic Radio; Delic Labs, the only licensed entity by Health Canada to exclusively focus on research and development of psilocybin vaporization technology; Meet Delic, the premiere psychedelic wellness event; and Ketamine Infusion Centers and Ketamine Wellness Centers (pending acquisition), making it the largest psychedelic wellness clinic chain in the country. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, over 17 million Americans have at least one major depressive episode every year, and up to 30 percent of them receive insufficient help from current medical treatments. Meanwhile, a further estimated 40 million adults struggle with anxiety disorders. In a move towards addressing the growing health crisis in 2018, the FDA moved towards granting psilocybin “breakthrough therapy” status for the treatment of severe depression. Shortly thereafter, first Denver and then Oakland voted to decriminalize the use of psilocybin mushrooms, with the state of California currently reviewing a bill to decriminalize a wide variety of psychedelics (https://ibn.fm/SV0LT). With the sector on the cusp of broad-based legalization, the psychedelic drugs market is now projected to grow to a size of $10.75 billion by 2027, up from $4.75 billion in 2020 with a forecast CAGR of 12.36 percent over the period of 2021-2027 (https://ibn.fm/sqQwO). Delic has responded by servicing the growing interest within the sector through the expansion of its wide-ranging media business, which includes the provision of a free education platform; hosting Meet Delic, the first-ever psychedelic wellness summit; and the creation of Delic Radio — a station featuring over 43 podcast episodes delving into different aspects of the psychedelic industry. Simultaneously and in line with their goal of enabling billions of people to live happier lives through the provision of psychedelic treatments, Delic has acquired Ketamine Infusion Centers, which operates two ketamine clinics located in Bakersfield, California, and Phoenix, Arizona, and recently announced its acquisition of Ketamine Wellness Centers, which currently operates 10 clinics across Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, Nevada, Texas and Washington. Delic expects to open 15 additional clinics across the country over the next 18 months. In recognition of the rapidly changing state of the industry, Delic has also focused its efforts around Delic Labs, a licensed cannabis and psilocybin research laboratory. It is the only Health Canada-licensed entity to exclusively focus on research and development of psilocybin vaporization technology. The psychedelic wellness industry has long been recognized as one of the fastest growing segments within the global healthcare industry. With its business spanning all aspects of the sector, Delic looks optimally positioned to benefit from the continued growth in the sector and the ongoing legalization efforts around the world.
