Thank you, Alan. Let me work first on your second question. So currently, we have secured our insurance costs for the next, I think, it's a couple of years or 18 months. So we have not seen any major adjustments for the moment. Eventually, when we get back to renegotiate that, we will eventually see. And we have not seen any major adjustments in real estate taxes. Now more importantly, even that we burden part of the cost, remember that we transfer part of that cost to our tenants. These are -- in most of the cases, we have triple net leases, and that's a cost that can be absorbed by tenants. And even with that, we believe that it's not a major cost still to their total production cost to many of our tenants. So the rent together with some of the operation costs, it's still very competitive vis-a-vis other regions. In some of the cases, rent and some of the real estate-related costs represent only 7% to 9% of total production costs or in terms of logistics, total operation cost. That's still a very competitive number. So even that we will continue to look into reducing costs. I think that all-in-all, that could well be absorbed by tenants, and they will continue to be competitive. Secondly, to your third question regarding I'm sorry, the cap rate. Sorry, yes. Well, first, yes, we will continue to do asset sales. And this is a good example of an asset, which was a vintage asset that we acquired, I think it was more than 15 years ago. This was not developed by Vesta. And I think -- and the cap rate to in-place rent was 6.2%. And it was a $68 per square foot as a sale and a premium to a price of almost 10% but again, I think this is a good example because we -- there are some vintage assets that eventually we would like to sell and crystallize value from asset sales, sell at a premium and focus on capital allocation and allocate that capital to higher return investments, new buildings, for example, in terms of development and through that close the cycle on investment.
