For those that don’t know, the Hamptons are full of very nice places. The uber-rich have second homes, there, that are bigger than Gold Coast first homes.

This company probably makes a lot of money, but they also have serious competition, so they need things like the 3D walkthroughs.

Summer traffic in the Hamptons is a nightmare, though. Many uber-rich have helipads.

You are 100% correct. My company is fortunate enough to have the working capital and time to explore ideas, which is honestly, one of the most fulfilling parts of my business.

And the Hamptons competition is very serious. It's insane really. Construction in the Hamptons is the Olympics of high-end building. There are atleast a dozen excellent, amazing builders and over 250 active companies in total. My company sits near the top of that list and the only one, to my knowledge, actively leveraging technology to our advantage.

No private heli-pads, they banned it long ago. There's a little known heli-pad on Meadow Lane in Southampton. So from your SoHo office to your beachfront house is under an hour. There's also Blade service to EH.

One of my clients often arrives by seaplane to check on the progress of his Peconic Bay waterfront project. It's pretty cool.

Ah. Glad to hear they banned them. I guess even the snobs got tired of having their teeth rattling out of their heads.

Glad to hear you guys are doing so well.
