Great development marketing starts long before a project has a name, a logo or even an architect.Increasingly, marketers are involved at the earliest stages of development, helping developers understand market demand, evaluate sites and make decisions about everything from unit mix to the overall resident experience.This episode of Multi-Housing News' Top Marketers podcast explores how marketing can shape development strategy from the ground up—and how a deeper understanding of the market can help determine what ultimately gets built.Joining us are Sarah Patton and Dan Parker, co-heads of Compass Development Marketing Group in New York. With more than 18 years of experience in new development, Patton brings an owner's perspective to projects, working across pre-development, design, architecture, marketing, sales and leasing while keeping an eye on the financial bottom line.Parker, who co-heads the group's new development business, is involved in every phase of the development process. He works closely with architects, designers, creative agencies and public relations strategists to assemble multidisciplinary teams and help each project establish its own identity and appeal to New York's increasingly sophisticated pool of buyers.The conversation looks at how that expertise can shape the physical product, from unit mix and apartment sizes to amenity programming and design. Patton and Parker discuss how developers can distinguish between lasting shifts in renter and buyer preferences and trends that may quickly lose their appeal—and why understanding the audience should come before deciding what to build.Key topics include bringing marketing into the process before site selection, using market intelligence to shape development strategy, optimizing unit mix and amenities, balancing trends with long-term appeal, building brands that resonate with buyers and renters, influencing neighborhood evolution and fostering stronger collaboration among developers, architects and marketing teams.From the Ground Up: Marketing Before the Building (0:00) Unit Mix, Amenities and the Trend Trap (7:32) Changing a Neighborhood One Building at a Time (14:59) One Team: Rentals Meets Sales (18:30) Community, Privacy and the Next Decade (23:46)

Resources Mentioned In This Podcast: The Coworking Scorecard 2026 What if the amenity your members love most is also the most expensive square footage in your space? Coffee bars, podcast studios, fitness rooms, kids rooms, and wellness rooms almost always start with a founder's passion. They feel like differentiators, and nobody builds one expecting it to sit empty. But you pay rent and CAM on every square foot whether it earns or not, and a studio the size of a large team office represents $2,000 to $3,000 a month in office or meeting room revenue you're choosing not to collect. In this episode, we walk through how to evaluate every amenity space on your floor plan by asking two questions: does it earn direct revenue, and does its promise sell memberships? I talk about: Why amenity spaces almost always start with a founder's passion, and why that makes them so hard to remove later The story of my 400-square-foot fitness studio (and $7,000 shower, in 2012 dollars) in the best corner of my first Chicago space How operators like Lucid Private Offices, Pacific Workplaces, and Premier Workspaces optimize revenue per square foot, and what unmonetized square footage costs Why an amenity that never gets used can still sell memberships, and how to test whether yours does The categories worth a hard look: food and beverage, fitness rooms, podcast and photography studios, and kids rooms Why wellness rooms are table stakes, even when they're not directly monetizable How to pare an amenity back or turn it into a product, from trainer memberships to a photography studio membership How to set a three-to-six-month deadline before converting a space to offices or meeting rooms If there's a room on your floor plan you've never put a number on, this episode gives you a way to decide whether it stays as it is, gets smaller, or becomes your next office.

692. Part 1 of our conversation with Patricia Knight Meyer about her adoption. In her gripping memoir, Wonderland: Memoir of a Black Market Adoption, Patricia unravels the complex and harrowing story of her origins within a illegal adoption ring, exploring the deep psychological ripple effects of a childhood built on hidden truths. Raised under the shadow of secrecy, Meyer masterfully weaves personal memory, investigative persistence, and raw emotional vulnerability to illuminate how illicit adoptions break identity apart and how truth can ultimately piece it back together. Her voice brings vital light to the silenced histories of black market adoptees, offering listeners a compelling exploration of belonging, family ties, and the relentless search for self-discovery.

What happens when a golf simulator in your garage turns into a 25,000-square-foot coworking business? For Josh Kaplan, founder of Clubhouse Work & Golf, the idea started with a group of friends wondering how hard it could be to rent a warehouse, set up a golf simulator, and have somewhere to work and play during the winter. Three years later, Clubhouse Work & Golf has its first location in Denver, sold out its 50 private offices in less than 13 months, and is opening a second location. In this episode, Josh and I talk about: How he went from an 18-year career in software to launching a coworking business Why it took nearly three years and 30–40 failed deals to finally get the first location open How golf became the hook, but hospitality and design became a much bigger part of the value proposition What Josh learned from his first location and is applying to the second Why he's deliberately taking a conservative approach to expansion How his team has evolved as he moves away from day-to-day operations And why he believes Clubhouse Work & Golf can eventually scale beyond Denver I love Josh's story because it's a great example of building something genuinely differentiated instead of trying to create another version of the same coworking space. And the golf is only part of the story.

"Send us a message!"The best conversations aren't planned.For this episode, we filled a bowl with random salon and business topics, took turns drawing them out, and challenged ourselves to answer each one in just a few minutes.From difficult clients and Google reviews to commission, hiring, social media, core values, AEO, expansion, cancellation policies, and client expectations, you'll hear our honest thoughts without a script.Some topics could have been entire episodes. Others were quick takes. But together they paint a pretty clear picture of how we think about building a salon business.The Big Idea: Great businesses aren't built by having all the answers. They're built by consistently thinking through the right questions.Key TakeawaysDifficult clients don't always belong in your business.Core values should guide every major decision. Expansion should happen only after you've maximized your current business. Amenities rarely differentiate your salon. Social media should solve client problems—not just showcase hair. Standards protect both your clients and your culture. Commission is a business model, not a recruiting strategy. Hiring systems matter more than hiring quickly. Business owners should spend time on work that only they can do.Time Stamps00:00 — Opening takes: negativity & owner responsibilities04:00 — Difficult clients & team meetings07:00 — Hustle culture & core values11:00 — Expansion & Google reviews15:00 — Standards & commission salons21:00 — Amenities & social media28:00 — Cancellation policies & client expectations34:00 — AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)37:00 — Hiring systems that actually workReflection: Which topic challenged your thinking the most?More importantly... which one are you actually going to act on this week?Your business should serve you, so that you can serve others.And sometimes the biggest breakthroughs don't come from finding new answers—they come from asking better questions.Links and Stuff:Our Newsletter Mentoring InquiriesFind more of our things:InstagramHello Hair Pro Website

Alex Vondeling has spent her career digging into the part of the problem most people skip past. Not whether we need more housing, we clearly do, but what kind, at what scale, and arranged in what way. She is a principal at Opticos Design, the Berkeley firm that coined the term missing middle housing more than a decade ago, and she has become one of the clearest voices in the country on how to actually build it.What I appreciate about Alex, and about Opticos, is that they are not content to only name a problem. They work tirelessly on the solution. In this conversation we get into the important difference between a fourplex that looks like a house and a fourplex surrounded by parking, why the streetscape decides whether urbanism works at all, and the struggle between how a city can adopt a beautiful comprehensive plan while its own engineers have rules in place that make it impossible to build.We also get into my own work and projects and why the neighborhood, not just the gym within it, is the amenity. If you build places for a living, or you just want to understand why the good ones feel good, this one is worth your time.0:00 Intro1:27 How Alex Found the Missing Middle4:11 What Opticos Actually Does6:14 Build-to-Rent, Reclaimed7:50 Missing Middle Housing, Defined10:11 Making It Work in the Real World13:16 One Ingredient in a Whole Neighborhood15:38 Engaging a City19:19 The Recommendations That Repeat23:14 How Developers Find Opticos28:15 The Real Constraints41:35 The Neighborhood Is the Amenity46:33 Entitlements and the Advocate You Need55:03 Live/Work, Boutique Office, and What's NextCONNECT WITH THE ALEXANDRAAlexandra Vondeling on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/alexandra-vondeling-6a36571aOpticos Design: opticosdesign.comOpticos on Instagram: www.instagram.com/opticosdesignIn the episode, Alex said an email to Opticos's info inbox always reaches the right person in the firm. The contact form and email live on their site. She also noted Opticos is active on LinkedIn, YouTube, and Substack, and the best time to reach out is early, while the site plan is still flexible.CONNECT WITH AUSTIN TUNNELLNewsletter: https://playbook.buildingculture.com/ / austintunnell / austin-tunnell-2a41894a / austintunnell CONNECT WITH BUILDING CULTUREhttps://www.buildingculture.com/ / buildingculture / build_culture / buildculture

In this week's Monday Market Data Report, Mark Lumpkin breaks down the short-term rental market in St. Louis, Missouri—and the data reveals one of the biggest opportunities we've seen all year.With more than 25 million annual visitors, growing STR occupancy, and an incredibly under-amenitized market, St. Louis may be the perfect place to build a true "super property."In this episode, Mark covers:Revenue potential by bedroom countWhy 4, 5, and 7-bedroom homes see the biggest revenue jumpsThe current STR regulations and market trendsThe amenities your competitors have—and more importantly, the ones they don'tThe numbers are shocking:• Game Rooms → Less than 7% of listings• Playgrounds → Less than 7%• Pickleball Courts → 2%• Mini Golf → 1.5%• Pools, Hot Tubs, Saunas, Fire Pits & Home Gyms → Less than 1%The takeaway?Most St. Louis Airbnbs have almost no amenities. That means investors willing to build something unique have an opportunity to create a true one-of-one property with very little competition.Subscribe for new Market Data Reports every Monday and expert guest interviews every Friday.

What if the smartest move in real estate right now isn't multifamily at all? While thousands of investors keep fighting over the same overpriced apartment deals, Zander Kemp walked away from 23 apartment buildings to chase something almost nobody else was building: luxury glamping and hot spring resorts parked right outside America's busiest national parks. In this episode, Zander, founder of Clear Summit Investments, breaks down exactly how he identified outdoor hospitality as a massively underpriced niche, still 90% owned by mom and pop operators, trading at cap rates nearly double what multifamily and self storage command. He walks through his entire investment thesis: why proximity to growing metro areas and capped national park visitation numbers create built in demand, how amenities like cold plunges and hot tubs drive outsized returns per unit, and how his Real Freedom Income Fund structures investor returns across three distinct paths, from 10% monthly cash flow to 14% compounded over three years. He also gets refreshingly specific about deal sourcing, the "work camper" staffing model that keeps his resorts running lean, and the exact criteria his team uses to evaluate a property before writing an offer. This episode is essential listening for accredited investors tired of razor thin multifamily margins and looking for a niche with real pricing power, and for anyone curious how a former military officer turned house flipper built a five resort portfolio averaging 24% annual returns. If you have ever wondered whether there is a smarter way to invest passively while still getting to enjoy what you own, this conversation lays out the blueprint. 5 Powerful Takeaways Discover why outdoor hospitality assets are trading at nearly double the cap rate of multifamily and self storage, and what that spread means for investor returns. Learn the exact location criteria Clear Summit uses before buying a resort, including proximity to national parks and growing metro job markets.

Is now still a smart time to invest in short-term rentals—or has the opportunity already passed? In this episode of The STR Data Lab, AirDNA CEO Rohit sits down with John Bianchi, better known as the Airbnb Data Guy, to unpack the data-driven framework that's helped identify more than 400 profitable STR investments. From finding resilient markets to evaluating deals and designing properties that outperform the competition, John shares the methodology he uses to separate great investments from costly mistakes.The conversation goes far beyond market selection. John explains why regulation should always come before revenue analysis, how his "20% Rule" helps quickly identify markets with cash-flow potential, and why amenities, marketing, and guest experience often matter more than the property itself. Along the way, Rohit and John explore how today's market differs from the easy-money era—and why thoughtful investors may still have a significant advantage.Whether you're buying your first vacation rental or scaling a portfolio, this episode is packed with practical insights on underwriting, property optimization, and long-term investment strategy. If you're looking to make smarter decisions with your next STR investment, this conversation offers a roadmap grounded in data—not hype.You don't want to miss this episode!Key TakeawaysStart with regulation—not revenue. Before analyzing any market, understand its STR regulations and prioritize locations with stable, well-defined rules.Use the 20% Rule as a quick filter. Compare a property's purchase price to its revenue potential to quickly determine whether a market is worth deeper analysis.Design for experiences, not bedrooms. Amenities, outdoor spaces, and memorable guest experiences consistently outperform standard listings and drive higher revenue.Marketing matters more than most hosts realize. The order of your listing photos, storytelling, and presentation can dramatically influence bookings—even before guests read a single word.Think long-term, not just this year's cash flow. Combining cash flow, appreciation, principal paydown, and tax advantages can create powerful compounding returns for investors who buy strategically.Sign up for AirDNA for FREE

Not every amenity pays for itself, and the ones that look great on a competitor's listing might do nothing for yours. This isn't about trends or gut instinct. It's about data and real ROI. In this episode, we share the exact framework he uses to evaluate any amenity before spending a dollar, so you can stop guessing. How to use AirDNA to compare listings with and without a feature: the data reveals your actual revenue opportunity before any money changes hands. Why a 25% revenue lift from a pool might still be the wrong move. Not every amenity shows up cleanly in the numbers, but photo value is real. What Orlando teaches every STR investor about market saturation. The five-tier amenity framework. The right amenity in the right market can transform your numbers, the wrong one ties up capital for years. Tim gives you the framework to tell the difference.

New York City hotels, while expensive, often are much smaller and simpler than travelers expect. While you won't spend much time in your hotel, it's important to understand what your room and hotel experience will entail in NYC.In this episode, we'll cover:Average hotel pricesTaxes & fees to be aware ofRoom size & what to expect for (the lack of) amenitiesThe Airbnb situationPro tips to maximize your NYC hotel experience1. The Price of a Bed in NYCAverage Range: $250–$400 depending on neighborhood (Times Square = highest)Budget [think hostel-style] ($115 +) vs. mid-range ($225+) vs. luxury ($500+++)Weekdays (cheaper) vs. weekends, and seasonal swings matter (Jan & Feb are often the cheapest time)2.

Can you truly change the world if you haven't first changed yourself? Gerard Powell was a CEO who took two companies public — and was quietly, persistently miserable. His journey from deep personal dissatisfaction and addiction to the discovery of plant medicine led to the founding of Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica, the world's first medically licensed ayahuasca retreat. Nearly 24,000 guests later, with a 98.12% self-reported transformational success rate, Gerry joins Care More Be Better to make the case that the most powerful outward impact begins with the courageous work of inner transformation. He and host Corinna Bellizzi explore the soul fracture that no amount of success can heal, the arms dealers and billionaires who left Rythmia wanting to give their lives to helping others, and the message the medicine gave Gerry when he went to her crying about the state of the world: stop the war within yourself and the other wars will go away.
