Welcome!
Welcome to the May 2026 Jack in the Box STNL update!
Each month I'll be covering news and information of interest for Jack in the Box STNL owners to help them make the best decisions for their investments.
As always, I'm available to provide a no-cost, no-obligation Broker Opinion of Value (BOV) for your property. I personally make a habit to update my investment portfolio each quarter; doing so helps me achieve peace of mind and I sleep better each night because of it. I'm happy to do it for you as well.
I hope you enjoy this May edition of the Jack in the Box STNL update.
Please note, I will be taking June off for summer vacation and will be back for the July newsletter.
I look forward to reconnecting in July. Have a great start to your summer!
Best,
Michael H. Young
