What does it take to scale from a 38-unit syndication to 33,000 units across six states—and still never lose investor capital? Jeff Gleiberman of MG Properties breaks it down. In this episode, Jeff shares the core principles that helped his family-run firm grow into one of the top 50 apartment owners in the U.S. You'll hear how they've weathered multiple market cycles, why they're buying newer assets right now, and how disciplined underwriting, fixed-rate debt, and vertical integration have become their unfair advantages. Whether you're raising capital, comparing asset classes, or trying to read the market—this episode is required listening.Key TakeawaysFrom Family Syndication to Institutional ScaleStarted with a single 38-unit deal and scaled to 33,000 units over 30+ years.Built trust and momentum through word of mouth and disciplined execution.Added institutional capital partners while staying grounded in syndication fundamentals.Grew from a home office to over 1,000 employees with fully integrated operations.How MG Navigates Market CyclesSurvived and thrived through the S&L crisis, dot-com bust, GFC, COVID, and today's rate shock.Adapted strategy for each cycle—moving from value-add to core-plus when needed.Buys below replacement cost today to minimize downside and maximize long-term upside.Maintains focus on fixed-rate, long-term debt and low leverage to protect investor capital.Why Vertical Integration is a Competitive AdvantageIn-house property management, asset management, and construction management from day one.Enables real-time decision-making, tighter expense control, and stronger performance in down markets.Allowed the firm to pivot quickly during COVID and deliver consistent returns.How to Attract Serious Capital (Without Chasing High IRRs)Always invests 10–20% of their own capital into each deal—creating strong alignment.Focuses on risk-adjusted returns, not marketing inflated projections.Educates investors on cycles, deal structure, and realistic expectations to build long-term trust.Current Strategy: Core-Plus Over Value-AddAcquiring newer, well-located properties at 30–40% discounts to replacement cost.Cash flow is lower today—but risk is also lower, and long-term upside is strong.Value-add deals don't pencil right now due to rent compression and renovation risk—but they will again.The Discipline Behind $1.8B in Acquisitions (In a Down Market)Maintains a consistent buy box and underwriting discipline—despite competition and volatility.Relies on lender relationships, low-cost insurance, and scale advantages to stay competitive.Sticks to one asset class—multifamily—and executes at a high level, deal after deal.Connect with Jeffmgproperties.com Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)

Today's Headlines: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met privately with Ghislaine Maxwell in Tallahassee, reportedly spending the entire day discussing undisclosed matters, with another meeting planned. Meanwhile, a House subcommittee voted to subpoena the DOJ for Jeffrey Epstein's files, despite House Speaker Mike Johnson's attempt to block a vote. A new Wall Street Journal report revealed the contents of Epstein's professionally bound 50th birthday album, which included notes from Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Vera Wang, and others. President Trump visited the Federal Reserve with Chair Jerome Powell, criticizing him over renovation costs as part of his broader effort to justify firing Powell. The FCC approved Skydance's $8B merger with Paramount, and the company will pay Trump $20M in licensing fees. Columbia University also struck a $221M settlement with the Trump administration over antisemitism allegations, regaining access to previously frozen federal funds while agreeing to monitored policy changes. In France, President Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron filed a defamation suit against Candace Owens for her repeated claim that Brigitte is transgender; Owens responded by saying she welcomes the fight. Macron also announced that France will formally recognize Palestine as a state at the UN General Assembly in September. Finally, the State Department plans to burn nearly $10M worth of unused contraceptives intended for developing nations—just months after it destroyed 500 tons of emergency food—despite offers from humanitarian groups to redistribute the supplies.

On this week's episode, Moe comes out hot and spills on "Coldplay-Gate," that viral kiss-cam fiasco where a couple (turns out, cheating execs from Astronomer) bolted like they saw a ghost. It's not just gossip—it's schadenfreude gold, highlighting how the C-suite plays by different rules. Joel highlights ZipRececruiter's most recent marketing strategy: Embracing old school linear TV by sponsoring a new show on Fox. Chad rants about the new $250 "integrity fee" for US tourist visas—because nothing says "welcome" like a cash grab that could tank tourism before the 2026 World Cup. Ashby news brings the fire, snagging a whopping $50M Series D, doubling customers (now 2,700+ like OpenAI and Shopify), boosting revenue 135%, and barely dipping into last year's Series C. Why more cash? To evolve "at the speed of AI," building all-in-one recruiting magic—sourcing, scheduling, analytics—that users call "beautiful software." No more tool sprawl; it's the startup darling dethroning clunky vets like Greenhouse. Chad's verdict: Finally, an ATS nobody bitches about—refreshing in a moan-fest industry! Then, drama alert: Bold snatches Monster and CareerBuilder assets for $28.4M in a bankruptcy auction (up from a start of $7M). Great domains, SEO juice ... but Bold's predatory paywalls (mandatory sign-ups, fees for full job deets) scream "job seeker trap." Chad's not thrilled—hopes they don't prey harder with that Monster muscle. Randstad? Total villains. They boast $5.8B revenue and 3% EBITDA margins, but screw Monster employees worldwide. Days before mass layoffs, they gutted severance: From 1.5 weeks/year (up to 16) to a flat two weeks. Imagine losing $28K if you're a 20-year vet! In France, it's worse—brutal shutdowns, no support, leaving taxpayers footing unemployment bills. Vendors? Stiffed millions after Monster ran up tabs they knew were doomed. Chad's furious: "Corporate welfare at its finest." Until CEOs like don orange jumpsuits, the little guys get proper f***ed. AI corner: Perplexity's CEO says says recruiter jobs are soon to be a thing of the past, and Salesforce's Mark Benioff probably agrees, as his company is doing up to 50% or more with less. Moe's skeptical: "Hype to sell shares!" Chad sees task automation (bye, scheduling drudgery) but demands AI taxes and UBI pronto. Jobs evolve, but painful contractions ahead? We'll be watching.

Alphabet (GOOGL) shares slip lower after an initial pop. George Tsilis and Scott Durfey join Marley Kayden to digest the latest quarterly figures from Google's parent company. Both George and Scott denote the company's capital expenditure number as one to watch as A.I. expansion could weigh on overall company profits. However, they point to its YouTube business as a positive checking in with $9.8B revenue reported in the 2Q. Then, they turn their attention to IBM after an earnings beat and Tesla (TSLA) after missing on its Adj. EPS figure. Scott adds that Tesla's still looking for direction on it being an EV company or an A.I. company. George highlights prior significant cuts in Tesla's guidance as potentially softening the blow and believes tomorrow's trading reaction will be key.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Send us a textIn this no-holds-barred Daily Drop, Peaches dives headfirst into the latest national defense chaos—from Humvees rolling through LA to Marines moonlighting as ICE support in Florida. Pete Hegseth wants to bring the warrior spirit back (because apparently we lost it), and Jared's not buying the sudden patriotism unless you're ready to pull bodies from burning cars. Meanwhile, retired four-stars are back in the game pushing for E-7s and more F-35s… but who's paying them now? The Academy is bleeding staff, a nuclear microreactor is going to Alaska (because obviously), and the Air Force just teamed up with AI-piloted Valkyrie drones like it's Skynet 2.0. Also—yes, the Space Force canceled something big. Again. Strap in, nerds.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1089: The federal EV tax credit countdown is officially on—and startups like Slate are feeling the pressure. Toyota's new “K-flex” line is redefining manufacturing versatility in Georgetown, while Amazon kicks off a four-day Prime Day aimed at cautious consumers and stocked-up sellers.Show Notes with links:The countdown has started. EV tax credits vanish after September 30, 2025, slamming the brakes on what was once a key driver of electric vehicle adoption. Dealers are already seeing signs of a demand surge—and the next 84 days could be chaos.Buyers are rushing to act before the deadline, with analysts predicting a sharp uptick in showroom traffic.Barclays expects a pre-deadline demand spike as shoppers try to capture incentives before they disappear, and dealer inventories of qualifying models may dry up quickly.Researchers Elaine Buckberg and Cassandra Cole estimate a 6-point drop in EV share by 2030 as a resultSlate's highly anticipated sub-$20K electric truck, backed by over 100,000 reservations, has quietly had its price bumped to the "mid-twenties" after losing eligibility for the now-defunct EV tax credit.Check out our panel from ASOTU CON on this topicIn a corner of Georgetown, Kentucky, Toyota is quietly completing one of the boldest manufacturing upgrades in recent memory. A decade in the making, “K-flex” is turning a 40-year-old assembly line into the most flexible—and possibly most advanced—Toyota line in the world.The $1.8 billion Line 1 overhaul allows for hybrid, plug-in, and full EVs to be built alongside ICE vehicles on the same line.Automation is everywhere: car-size autonomous skillets, part-delivering robots, and robotic glass installers fill the plant floor.Amazon's Prime Day has evolved into a four-day price frenzy—just in time to collide with fresh tariff concerns, shifting consumer priorities, and more cautious spending behavior. Retailers are leaning in hard, but shoppers aren't splurging quite like they used to.Prime Day now runs from July 8 (today) to July 11, with deals dropping as often as every 5 minutes and new perks aimed at Gen Z shoppers.Adobe predicts $23.8B in U.S. online sales this week—up 28% from last year—but analysts warn of front-loaded demand and early fatigue.Retailers like Walmart and Target are running competing promotions with sharper, more selective discounts.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:45 Nathan doesn't have an Amazon Prime account2:15 ASOTU Edge Webinar tomorrow with Uber For Business3:05 New Episode of Auto Collabs with Thuy Adomitis of Mia4:40 EV Tax Credits Go Away in 84 Days, AnJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

The timing here is fascinating, because Informatica literally just announced their own agentic AI offerings last week at Informatica World, so Salesforce is essentially buying a company that’s already pivoted hard into the AI space – rather than trying to build these capabilities from scratch. There’s going to be some interesting overlap with MuleSoft, which Salesforce bought for $6.5 billion back in 2018, but analysts are s

What Does The House v. NCAA Settlement Mean For The Future Of Track and Field + Cross Country (With Russell Dinkins)

“There is a pretty significant amount of track and field athletes for whom a college opportunity will only come through the participation of track and field. That is something we need to really educate the public around. Coining the term, ‘the opportunity sport,' encapsulates all of that. It's something I believe the broader public can get understanding around.”Starting July 1, NCAA Division I schools can directly pay athletes for the first time ever. This shift follows the House v. NCAA antitrust settlement, approved last week by Judge Claudia Wilken. The $2.8B deal doesn't make athletes employees, but it does allow them to finally receive a share of the billions in revenue they help generate. Schools will be able to offer up to $20.5M annually to student-athletes across all sports (amounts not required to be equal). It also tightens oversight of NIL collectives via a new clearinghouse that ensures deals are “fair-market value.” After major pushback over lost roster spots, the final version protects current and incoming athletes, though schools aren't required to restore those spots. Now, athletic departments are racing to implement these changes. Some are lobbying Congress for federal regulation, hoping this deal becomes a stepping stone toward nationwide legislation. Either way, college sports — and particularly cross country and track — will never look the same.Mentioned in this episode…Read: Track Is America's Opportunity Sport.
