Growth may be booming across Georgia, yet getting new housing approved often feels like running an obstacle course designed by politics, not policy. Simon Bloom, founding partner of Bloom Parham LLP, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to pull back the curtain on the zoning battles shaping what gets built, where and at what cost. During this episode on “Unbridled Politics,” he will discuss the political and procedural challenges shaping zoning and land use in Georgia. Drawing on decades of experience representing builders and developers, he explains why projects often get caught in red tape, why build-to-rent (BTR) housing is targeted and how Georgia's fragmented local government contributes to inefficiency and higher housing costs. How Politics and Public Input Affect Development Bloom emphasized that zoning decisions in Georgia are driven less by technical merit than by politics: “If a politician or public official wants your project, it’s going to go forward,” said Bloom. “And if he or she doesn’t, it isn’t. The merits sometimes get lost in just a matter of pure politics.” Developers face a range of hurdles, from rezoning denials to conditional-use permits and administrative slowdowns. Routine actions, such as delaying final plats or withholding building permits, can derail projects entirely. Litigation is sometimes necessary, not as a first resort, but to ensure local governments follow proper procedures. Public opposition adds another layer of complexity. Organized neighborhood groups and homeowners now have unprecedented access to local meetings through streaming platforms and social media. While this transparency increases accountability, it can also make officials more cautious, further complicating development efforts. Why Build-to-Rent Projects Face Extra Hurdles Build-to-rent (BTR) projects face particular scrutiny, even as the demand for affordable rental housing continues to grow. “The cities and counties that say they need affordable housing are doing everything in their power to make it unaffordable and causing gentrification,” said Bloom. “They are driving the folks that they want to be living in their communities out into ‘the sticks.'” Part of the paradox lies in administrative inefficiencies and local mandates that increase cost and complexity. For example, some counties require side-entry garages in high-density developments—a design choice that increases lot sizes and, in turn, raises prices for buyers and renters. Add to that the need for detailed engineering studies, repeated public hearings and permit fees, and BTR builders and developers face substantial “chase costs” long before construction begins. Legislative solutions to streamline zoning and clarify local requirements have progressed slowly. Efforts to limit local control over architectural standards or to prevent bans on BTR have made modest gains. State lawmakers often consider input from local governments, which influences the pace and scope of reforms. Meanwhile, impact fees—sometimes adding thousands of dollars to individual projects—remain a factor that can increase costs and create differences across communities. On a larger scale, Bloom identifies Georgia's large number of local governments as a source of inefficiency. The state has 159 counties and 500 cities, each with separate planning departments, zoning boards and codes. This patchwork of rules forces engineers, lawyers and developers to navigate vastly different requirements across municipalities, slowing housing production and driving up costs. Navigating the Zoning Landscape Bloom encourages builders and developers to engage early with district commissioners or council members and maintain transparent communication with neighbors and planning staff. Understanding how “district-friendly” voting works, where council members often follow the lead of their district commissioner, can help projects move forward more efficiently. Bloom said, “Without your district commissioner championing your rezoning, your chances of success are much lower.” Tune in to the full episode to hear Simon Bloom discuss how politics and local regulations shape Georgia housing zoning and to learn what builders and developers can do to navigate these challenges.

Despite the drumbeat of crash talk, the numbers tell a more nuanced story. Today's housing market isn't in freefall; it's recalibrating. Cara Lavender, senior research manager at John Burns Research and Consulting, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss where the housing market stands today and what builders and developers should expect as 2026 progresses. A Housing Market in Recalibration, Not Crisis Despite ongoing headlines predicting a housing crash, recent data tells a very different story. The current market environment is highly segmented, with affordability continuing to shape outcomes. First-time buyers remain constrained, while move-up and luxury segments are seeing more consistent activity. Rising inventory and softening prices reflect a recalibration, not systemic weakness. “We're still in a slow market, but we're seeing stabilization in a lot of areas,” Lavender said. “In no sense of the word are we seeing that we're on the verge of a “crash” when we look at all the data.” John Burns Research and Consulting forecasts average mortgage rates at around 6.6%, driven by normalization in the spread between the 10-year Treasury and the 30-year mortgage rate. While builders have been able to offset higher rates through aggressive buydowns, easing rates should provide more upside on the resale side, where demand has been more sensitive to borrowing costs. Nationally, the housing market remains structurally undersupplied by approximately 1.1 million homes, even as near-term supply has loosened across both new and resale markets. In metro Atlanta, resale supply currently sits around 4.3 months, a range traditionally considered healthy. How Affordability Is Shaping Buyer Behavior Affordability is a key factor in current market conditions, particularly as taxes and insurance continue to add pressure to monthly payments. Entry-level buyers remain highly payment-sensitive, while move-up buyers are increasingly returning to the market. “This is not a build-it-and-they-will-come market anymore,” she said. “Success is going to come from tightly refined offerings and really understanding who the buyer is in your market.” As resale sellers adjust pricing expectations, many move-up buyers—often sitting on significant equity—are finally able to make their next move. Buyers are making trade-offs, prioritizing efficiency and functionality over excess space, mirroring builders' efforts to value-engineer floor plans and control costs. Why Move-In-Ready Homes Are Winning Buyer preference for move-in-ready homes remains strong. According to John Burns’ research surveys, nearly 40% of resale listings require significant repairs or updates. “People don't want to put a new roof on. They don't want to redo flooring or kitchens,” Lavender said. “If sellers aren't willing to bring the price down, they're going to have to offer repairs or credits.” Homes that are well-located, competitively priced and turnkey continue to attract strong demand, while properties requiring work face longer marketing times and tougher negotiations. Build-to-Rent & the Changing Path to Homeownership As affordability challenges continue to delay first-time homeownership, build-to-rent (BTR) communities are playing an increasingly important role in the Atlanta housing market. These communities provide a longer-term rental solution for households that want the benefits of single-family living but are not yet ready or able to buy. Build-to-rent offers access to detached homes, private outdoor space and community amenities at a more attainable monthly cost, effectively bridging the gap between traditional apartments and homeownership. A “Boring” 2026 Outlook Looking ahead, John Burns Research and Consulting forecasts a gradual recovery in 2026, following several years of volatility across both new home and resale markets. While production levels and pricing are still expected to soften modestly in the near term, those declines are projected to be less severe than what the industry experienced throughout 2025. Lavender said, “Our 2026 forecast is kind of boring—and that's a good thing.” Tune in to the full episode to hear data-driven insights on today's housing market, affordability trends and what builders and developers can expect in 2026.

Growing a premium home service brand is not just about better marketing. It is about trust, craftsmanship, and building real relationships. In this special Member Spotlight episode of The Better Than Rich Show, host Mike Abramowitz sits down with Brian Danque, owner of The Lighting Lizards in Cocoa, Florida, to unpack how a design-focused approach to outdoor lighting is helping him scale with confidence. Brian shares how he went from running an electrical contracting business to building a standout landscape lighting brand rooted in artistry, emotion, and client experience. He explains what separates true luxury outdoor lighting from box lights and quick installs, and why intentional design and how you treat people from the very first phone call create fans, referrals, and long-term growth. Timestamps [00:00] Intro Mike welcomes Brian and sets the stage for a Member Spotlight [01:23] From electrical contracting to lighting as an art form [02:20] Why lighting work creates emotion, pride, and extended living space [04:07] What makes luxury lighting different than handyman installs [04:45] Credentials that build authority certifications, publishing, and licensing [05:25] Scaling challenge delivering high-touch experiences at every price point [10:10] Brian's best year yet and growth levers that drove momentum [10:33] Freeing time through Better Than Rich support and adopting stronger principles [12:36] Bottlenecks before BTR tech stress, slow execution, and admin overload [13:25] Polished systems mindset and how the team accelerated implementation [16:12] 2026 vision: more help, more design focus, more partnerships [18:34] Year-over-year growth: 70% increase [19:22] Reviews and referrals relationships, humility, and being a real human [33:59] Better Than Rich means time back to live a joyful life [34:56] How to contact The Lighting Lizards [36:22] Brian's $10,000 idea: offload what you are not good at to grow faster Key Quotes “It allowed me to be somewhat of an artist and use my imagination a little bit more.” “We're thinking about it as an image, as a piece of artwork.” “The numbers don't lie, and we are growing at a lot faster pace than I ever thought.” “Just being kind and humble to people is really what can help generate tons of business.” “What it means to me is to have time back in my life to do the things that I like to do and want to do.” Key Takeaways ● Luxury lighting is design, not placement — The difference is artistry, intention, and how immersive the final experience feels. ● Client experience starts at the first phone call — Make people feel appreciated immediately and confirm you're a good fit. ● Credentials create brand authority — Licensing, certifications, and published work help buyers choose confidence over cheap installs. ● Treat every client like your biggest client — A $5K job still deserves care, intention, and respect. ● Rebranding is costly—but can unlock premium growth — Early failures are part of the process; strong anchors + consistency build momentum. ● Admin overload quietly limits growth — Offloading systems and tech work can free you to focus on what you do best. ● Relationships drive reviews and referrals — When clients feel a human connection, they naturally become promoters. ● Investing in yourself creates the “hustle effect” — Making the investment forces action—and often returns far more than it costs. ● Surround yourself with the right rooms — Events, certifications, and peer groups recharge motivation and expand what you believe is possible. ● Better Than Rich is time and joy — Success isn't just money—it's having time back for family, hobbies, and the life you want.

Jeff Feinstein joins host Brandon Sedloff on The Distribution for a deep dive into the evolution and future of opportunity zone investing. The conversation traces Jeff's path from a decades-long career in technology to building Pinnacle Partners, a firm dedicated exclusively to opportunity zone development. Jeff explains how tax policy shaped his investing journey, why OZ legislation has become a powerful tool for individual investors, and how Pinnacle structures institutional-quality multifamily and build-to-rent projects across thousands of eligible zones. Throughout the discussion, he highlights the mechanics, benefits, risks, and real-world execution behind ground-up OZ development. They discuss: • Jeff's transition from tech operator to real estate fund manager and OZ pioneer • How opportunity zones were created, how they work, and what changed under OZ 2.0 • Why Pinnacle focuses on institutional underwriting, JV partnerships, and multi-asset funds • The role of RIAs, family offices, and private wealth in OZ distribution • What makes a strong or weak development partner in OZ projects • Key risks, real estate fundamentals, and why policy permanence matters • Markets and asset types Pinnacle favors, including workforce housing, BTR, and rural zones Links: Pinnacle Partners - https://pinnacleoz.com/ Jeff on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jefffeinstein/ Brandon on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:02:48) - Jeff's career and background (00:08:30) - The role of tax policy in investing (00:11:09) - The launch of Pinnacle Partners (00:13:51) - The evolution of opportunity zones (00:17:07) - How opportunity zones are created (00:20:20) - Pinnacle Partners' strategy and success (00:23:37) - Pinnacle Partners' approach to development (00:25:19) - Capital strategy and fund structure (00:26:46) - Who benefits from opportunity zones?

In this episode, Spencer Sutton sits down with Nate Williams and Davis Moore from Lennar, one of the nation's largest homebuilders, to discuss why more investors are shifting to Build-to-Rent (BTR) properties and what it means for the future of single-family investing. Learn more about Lennar on their website, and check out their Investor Marketplace here. You'll learn: How BTR properties unlock new opportunities, including futureproofing and additional amenities that boost rent readiness The underrated value that BTR offers to renters, making them "stickier" and reducing vacancy Why Lennar underwrites its properties in house (and how that pays off for investors) The secret that makes BTR residents easier to manage =================================== Connect with Matt and Spencer at Evernest: Evernest.co Hosts: Spencer Sutton and Adam Hobson Guests: Nate Williams and Davis Moore, Lennar | Lennar's Investor Marketplace Visit the Podcast Website: Evernest.co/podcasts Email the Show: podcast@evernest.co =================================== Production House: Flint Stone Media Copyright of Evernest 2025.
Back in the olden days (after those bikes with the one really big wheel and the one tiny wheel, but before TikTok), when we spoke about the rental market, we meant apartments. Sure, there were plenty of “mom and pop” rental homes, but no one thought about them, and no one was building new ones. But over the last decade-plus, build-to-rent (BTR) has emerged as an ever-growing part of our national housing solutions. As BTR has grown and evolved, NexMetro Communities has played a key role in these changes. On this episode of the New Home Insights podcast, CEO Josh Hartmann joins me to talk about NexMetro, its philosophy, what drives it, his view of the market, and his take on BTR and its competition.

The ancient fires burn and heads fly as the Revenge Crew embark once again into the time of comic book wonder. The tigers pull out all the blades in this one as we continue our deep nostalgia ridded obsession with the 90's classically cool, “The Highlander.” This ones for all the dads in their dojo-garages!Later to be followed with a rarity here in the tiger den (because we read something together; so cute lol).

Real-estate operator August Biniaz (Co-Founder & CIO, CPI Capital) breaks down how he grew from agent and small developer to closing $225M+ in multifamily assets—plus the boutique advantages that win in today's market: cross-border investor structures, a mid-market acquisition lane ($20–$50M), and ruthless underwriting discipline (rent growth, exit caps, and debt selection). We cover value-add vs BTR, lessons from deals walked away from, and why talent, conservative debt, and 95% occupancy targets matter more than spreadsheets. Highlights The mid-market moat: Why 100–300 doors, < $50M assets in Tampa (FL) and San Antonio (TX) are a sweet spot. LP economics first: Targeting 15–20% average annualized returns and passing the "net-to-investor" test before bidding. Underwriting levers that kill deals: Keeping organic rent growth to ~2.5%–3%, and being conservative on exit cap rates. Debt is destiny: Why fixed, interest-only 5-year debt reduces "debt distress" risk. Boutique advantage: Direct access to principals, tight asset management, investor dinners, and hands-on ops. Cross-border structure: How Canadian LPs invest into U.S. deals while avoiding double taxation and using registered retirement funds (via MFT). Lessons learned: "Best deals are often the ones you walk away from," plus "hire slow, fire fast. Enjoyed this?

What happens when a building bought for $10,000 per door gets lost to foreclosure, returned by the bank for free, and eventually becomes worth $1.2 million per unit—and what does that teach us about staying power? In this episode, Angel Williams sits down with Dylan Vaccaro, a New York City multifamily investor who works alongside self-made real estate billionaire Francis Greenberger at Time Equities. Dylan shares his unconventional journey from architecture school to USC's real estate program, through lending and capital raising, to his current role managing acquisitions and operations for a $7+ billion portfolio. He reveals the three cardinal investing principles he learned from Greenberger: control your purchase price, control who makes decisions, and maintain staying power. This conversation explores why Time Equities never sells, how neighborhood gentrification creates massive wealth, and why positive cash flow from day one has returned to the NYC market for the first time in years. [00:01 - 08:00] From Architecture to Real Estate Operations Why Dylan switched from architecture after realizing "the pay of an artist" with engineering skills The three essential syndicator skills: finding deals, raising capital, understanding capital structure How working in BTR lending and private equity prepared him for operations [08:01 - 16:00] The Three Cardinal Principles of Real Estate Investing Why purchase price determines everything about a deal's success potential How control over decision-making separates winning deals from disasters The Clinton Hill story: $12M building lost to foreclosure, returned for free, now worth $1.8B [16:01 - 22:00] Why Buy and Hold Beats Value-Add Flips How time fixes most mistakes in real estate investing Why exit cap rate projections are "always gonna be wrong" The tax inefficiency of forced 1031 exchanges under time pressure [22:01 - 26:25] NYC Market Opportunities and Neighborhood Intelligence Why every deal Dylan underwrites now cash flows from day one (first time in 2-3 years) How Upper East Side demographics shifted from age 65-70 to 35-40 in just two years The art and science of understanding neighborhood gentrification patterns Connect with Dylan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-vaccaro-4450b9140/ Key Quotes: "The only one thing true about your proforma is it's always gonna be wrong." - Dylan Vaccaro Visit sponsorcloud.io/contact today and unlock $2,000 of free services exclusively for REI Rocks community members!

Ed and OB's latest pod had it all: boy-band dreams, baseball fantasies, and a phrase so overused it deserves its own fan club. They dove into viral internet nonsense, debated whether a Backstreet Boys Vegas residency could change lives (spoiler: OB might start packing glitter), and mapped out big ideas for the podcast's future. Along the way, they swapped stories about Yankees–Red Sox games, catching home runs without bodily harm, and why the glory days of R-rated comedies still make today's movies look PG. Your favorite podcast about nothing returns, and—as always—the charm is that we suck. Two guys. Two mics. Two questionable takes. That's the hose, baby.
How do serious LPs sharpen due diligence, avoid shiny objects, and stay liquid enough to pounce? In this PassivePockets Pulse Check kickoff, Jim Pfeifer and Paul Shannon welcome new co-host Chris Lopez to go behind the scenes on community-powered due diligence, share their written investing theses, and walk through real deals they've funded, across equity and debt, plus the wins, misses, and lessons that are guiding allocations right now. You'll hear why sponsors and deals must be vetted on separate tracks, how to post in the forums to actually get useful feedback (do the work first), and what a one-page annual plan looks like when timing is uncertain. Paul breaks down his barbell strategy, favoring newer assets with day-one cash flow, fixed-rate debt, and positive leverage, while Chris lays out “Don't bet against America,” lots of small checks for diversification, and building both an equity ladder and a debt ladder to solve liquidity timing. We also cover why Class A, Build-to-Rent, and select development fit today's supply picture, plus portfolio updates: debt funds, self-storage development, A-class multifamily, BTR in Ohio, Colorado development, and a distressed multifamily buy in Omaha. Finally, we unpack hard lessons from deals gone wrong- GP infighting, alleged commingling/investigations, and a multi-layer ATM Ponzi - and the practical guardrails we're using now (limit per sponsor, avoid overly broad operators and multi-layer structures, and lean on the community). We close with a sentiment check: more LOIs, hard earnest money returning, and early buyout interest on BTR - why we're cautiously optimistic (call it a yellow light) and still keeping cash optionality. Key Takeaways: How to use the community for real due diligence (and the posting format that gets responses) The separation between sponsor vetting and deal analysis and why both matter A simple one-page annual investing plan for capital, asset classes, and operator targets Paul's “all-weather” barbell: newer assets, day-one cash flow, fixed-rate/positive leverage Chris's “Don't bet against America,” many small checks, and building equity + debt ladders Why Class A, Build-to-Rent, and select development can shine as new supply falls off Recent allocations: debt funds, self-storage development, A-class MF, BTR Ohio, CO development, distressed MF Omaha Pain points & lessons: GP disputes, alleged commingling/FBI actions, and a multi-layer ATM Ponzi Risk controls that help: limit exposure per sponsor, start with small first checks, consider fund diversification Market pulse: more LOIs, hard money back on the table, early PE interest, why it's still a yellow light for now Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Daniel Angel-Mejia, managing partner at Apex Investments, for a conversation about sustainable real estate growth, building solid operations, and finding your way into development the smart way. Daniel brings international experience and a background in finance to his work in residential real estate, combining strategic planning with on-the-ground execution to drive long-term returns. Daniel's investing career began in Colombia, working with institutional clients before moving to the U.S. and landing in Atlanta. Initially focused on single-family fix-and-flips, he gradually shifted toward building portfolios, multifamily acquisitions, and now, ground-up residential development. He explains how this progression unfolded, the importance of starting where you are, and why consistency beats shortcuts when trying to scale. One of the key themes of this episode is building vertically integrated operations for long-term efficiency. Daniel shares why his team is transitioning property management in-house, even before hitting massive scale, and how that decision aligns with their larger strategy. He also breaks down how he and his partner approach market selection, development planning, and build-to-rent (BTR) versus for-sale projects. Jonathan and Daniel discuss how communication with tenants and communities plays a role in stabilizing properties, particularly when repositioning mom-and-pop multifamily assets. Daniel explains how they've created win-win situations by being transparent, planning thoughtfully, and offering quality upgrades that residents appreciate. Whether you're early in your investing journey or ready to shift into development and management, Daniel's experience offers a clear-eyed look at what it takes to build durable, profitable systems that adapt to changing market conditions. In this episode, you will hear: How Daniel Angel-Mejia shifted from international investing to U.S. residential development What his early single-family flips taught him about scaling responsibly Why his team is moving toward full vertical integration with property management Ways tenant communication affects long-term occupancy and turnover How Apex Investments is growing its build-to-rent portfolio in the Atlanta market Lessons learned from working with both institutional and mom-and-pop sellers Operational changes that make small-scale developments more efficient The importance of staying specialized while remaining open to future opportunities Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.
