National Land Realty Sees 155% Jump in Rural Land Sales This Year

National Land Realty

National Land Realty, the nation’s fastest growing real estate land brokerage company specializing in farm, ranch, country estates, timber, recreational, and commercial development properties, today announced that for the first half of 2021, the company saw a 155.53% increase in land sales as compared to the same period last year. From January 1 to June 30, 2021, National Land Realty sold $678,166,278 worth of land, compared to $265,389,196 in the same timeframe in 2020. “National Land Realty is currently active in 40 states having recently added Maryland and New Jersey, and we’re getting ready to expand into New York and Delaware,” said CEO Jason Walter. “We have 348 active field team members and are continuing to add two new members on average each week, which means we’ll eclipse 400 very soon.” With 1,426 unique transactions year-to-date, National Land Realty has sold 167,493 acres of property worth more than $850 million. “We are well on our way to surpassing $1 billion in sales volume for 2021,” said Jason Burbage, President of National Land Realty. “Part of the reason for our rapid growth and success is that we’ve made heavy investments in land touring and mapping technology, such as Land Tour 360 ® and LandBase™, which gives our agents and brokers a big advantage over the competition.” National Land Realty recently released an updated version of Land Tour 360 ®, a revolutionary new way for buyers to view and navigate land parcels online. The unique mapping technology allows visitors to the company's website to view listings three dimensionally and explore rural land in ways previously unattainable. "Instead of showing a prospective buyer a video of a property where the agent technically remains in control, the Land Tour 360® interactive experience puts the controls into the hands of the buyer allowing them to view the property at their own desired pace and level of detail," said Aaron Graham, Chief Innovation Officer for National Land Realty. "Giving buyers this kind of self-guided shopping experience has proven to be extremely effective in the residential brokerage world through technology such as Matterport. We've been able to integrate Matterport's technology into our Land Tour 360® platform, so users are not only able to view the land in 3D, but they can also view the inside of buildings or structures in 3D." About National Land Realty National Land Realty (NLR) is the nation’s fastest growing real estate land brokerage company specializing in farm, ranch, country estates, timber, recreational, and commercial development properties. Highly regarded for its proprietary land touring technology, Land Tour 360 ®, as well as its GIS land mapping system, LandBase™, which catalogs land data in extremely detailed ways, the company makes it easy to view and zero in on the right property in the right place. Founded in Greenville, S.C. in 2007, NLR has more than 80 offices in 40 states. To learn more visit www.nationalland.com or call (855) 384-5263.

Heather Jacoby, CEO and Founder of Asé Pure Naturals, Completes First 50K Ultra Marathon, Attributes CBD Use to Her Achievement

Asé Pure Naturals

As an avid athlete and health aficionado, Heather Jacoby, the CEO and Founder of CBD company Asé Pure Naturals, is no stranger to putting in the time and effort to make her body function at its highest levels. A veteran of multiple half marathons, Ms. Jacoby realized it was time to set a bigger goal for herself at the dawn of 2021, and she decided to pursue running a full marathon, comprised of 26.2 miles. However, this spring, when she set off at Colonel Francis Beatty Park in Matthews, North Carolina, to run her personal race, she surprised herself at the 26.2-mile marker, and decided to keep going. Ultimately, she ended up running her first 50K Ultra Marathon (31 miles) that day and attributes her accomplishment to her use of CBD during her training. “I have always been a passionate trail runner and I really wanted to do something to challenge myself. That’s why I set the goal of running a full marathon,” stated Ms. Jacoby. “So, when I did that and realized I wasn’t ready to stop, I decided to reassess my goal right there on the spot and keep going. And I ended up completing a 50K!” During her training, Ms. Jacoby engaged in the 75 Hard Challenge, which is a mental toughness program designed to boost confidence, self-esteem, self-worth, self-belief, fortitude, and grittiness. The program is designed to improve whole body wellness—mentally and physically. On top of this, she also implemented Asé Pure Naturals products, including CBD tinctures and a topical muscle gel roll on. The latter, specifically, aided in muscle recovery. “I ran over 575 miles during a 75-day training period, and at the end of the day, that type of intensity can easily lead to overuse. Asé Pure Naturals’ Muscle Gel Roll On was a game changer for me. It really offered significant relief from joint and muscle pain. Plus, it’s completely all natural and organic, so I didn’t have to worry about the effects of pharmaceutical or chemical compounds on the good work I was doing with my body,” noted Ms. Jacoby. All in all, Ms. Jacoby’s 50K Ultra Marathon took her approximately seven and a half hours to complete. She looks forward to her continued use of CBD products as she ponders her next athletic goal and encourages other athletes as well as hobbyists who simply enjoy being active to consider implementing CBD into their own workout and exercise endeavors. “My company, Asé Pure Naturals, is one of the most promising CBD brands currently on the market. I make the guarantee to my customers that our products contain everything they should and nothing they should not. CBD truly offers people the ability to meet and exceed their health and wellness goals and realize an improved life,” confirmed Ms. Jacoby. “Plus, when you use an Asé Pure Naturals product you can feel confident knowing that you are using a CBD product that is 100% natural, gluten free, non-GMO, cruelty free, vegan, and organic. This is so important because CBD is not yet regulated by the FDA.” Additionally, Asé Pure Naturals is a member of the Hemp Industries Association. The company’s products are manufactured in a GMP Certified Facility and made with hemp that is grown in the United States. Plus, all Asé Pure Naturals products are third-party lab tested, offering consumers added peace of mind. Consumers are invited to learn more about Asé Pure Naturals’ line of full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD topicals, tinctures, and softgel capsules by visiting the company online at www.asepurenaturals.com. Asé Pure Naturals, founded by health and wellness expert Heather Jacoby, was established in 2020 and is a woman-owned CBD product brand. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and serving customers around the country, the company only uses raw CBD material grown from custom, proprietary strains found at organic CBD farms. Their CBD is extracted using the safest and most eco-friendly methods in the industry, which also eliminates unwanted chemicals and residual solvents, and delivers CBD oil that has all of the essential cannabidiols and terpenes that consumers seek. The company’s products are manufactured in their Colorado-based facility and face stringent third-party testing to ensure organic and pure quality.

Prostate Cancer Racial Disparities

YourUpdateTV

Despite great strides in prostate cancer care over the past several years, racial disparities in care persist. Black and Hispanic men have a high burden of prostate cancer mortality. Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men, with the number rising to 1 in 6 for Black men and comprises more than 1 in 5 of all new cancer diagnoses for Hispanic men. The Covid-19 pandemic has also made things worse as early in the pandemic, many cancer resources were diverted, leaving scores of patients, including those with prostate cancer, with limited to no access to surgical treatment. So, what can be done and what does someone need to know to stay healthy? Conducting a nationwide media tour to discuss this important topic was Dr. Brian K. McNeil. Dr McNeil is an American Urological Association spokesperson and Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs, Vice-Chair, Department of Urology at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University Topics that Dr McNeil discussed during interviews with radio and TV stations across the country included: What research has discovered about racial disparities among men with prostate cancer The racial disparity in the utilization of new therapies for advanced prostate cancer How covid-19 and where someone lives could affect their treatment options When should men get screened for prostate cancer?

Leading Medical Professionals Launch Rappore, An Integrated Patient-Centric Mental Health Platform

Rappore

Rappore, a new-to-market virtual health care platform specializing in mental health therapies, now offers in-network treatment through leading insurance providers including United Health Care, Aetna, Cigna and Blue Cross Blue Shield. According to the National Alliance of Mental Illness (NAMI), 1 in 5 U.S. adults experienced mental illness in 2019, a number that has only increased this past year by the pandemic ( Kff.org ). While there are over 500,000 mental health clinicians in the U.S., 119M Americans still live in mental health shortage areas, making it a growing challenge. Rappore’s tech-enabled model aims to solve this issue, which is considered one of the largest healthcare burdens in America. By combining world-class mental healthcare with a convenient, telehealth solution, Rappore delivers accessible, affordable, and comprehensive mental health therapies to patients. “With the launch of Rappore, we aim to fix what is currently a broken system within our healthcare system,” says Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder Brian Kinsella. “We bring together psychiatry and therapy under one roof, and now, for the price of a copay. Having companies like Aetna and United Health on-board will enable us to service communities across the nation, and we are excited to achieve this growth while continuing to expand our capabilities and network.” “In the last year, we’ve seen mental healthcare apps grow tremendously; however, most of these apps are developed with little to no healthcare guidance or regulation, and more importantly, no real human interaction,” says Chief Medical Officer and Co-Founder, Frederic Kass, MD. “We’ve been able to create a model, backed by top academic medical centers, that elevates the current standard and leads to superior outcomes by matching patients with prominent medical professionals in a variety of specialties who can provide innovative treatments and high-quality services.” Rappore is the only digital company that can achieve superior outcomes for mental health problems including, but not limited to anxiety, depression, eating disorders and PTSD, relationship issues and school/work issues. Its experienced clinical staff has rigorous protocols and offers an array of services including coordinated care with specialty networks and programs, integrated technology, and leading risk management tools to ensure superior patient outcomes. Its technology advantages include rapid intake and onboarding procedures, robust offerings for various and complex ailments, and an affordable pricing model that incorporates therapy, medication, and accessibility to a highly vetted medical community with multiple specialties. Rappore offers licensed mental healthcare clinicians in six states: New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland, and Florida. The company is rolling out a BIPOC process group this month to provide support for BIPOC communities who are faced with unique challenges and systematic inequality. The company has plans for exponential growth and is currently undergoing funding to support initiatives including scaling its clinical staff, further developing proprietary data collection and outcome measurement tools, and driving education and awareness across the medical and patient markets.
