On this episode of Next Level CRE, Matt Faircloth interviews Ben Fraser, Chief Investment Officer at Aspen Funds and co-host of the Invest Like a Billionaire podcast.

Ben explains the dangers of income creep, critiques the limitations of traditional financial planning, and advocates for strategic investing outside Wall Street. They also discuss reshoring trends driving industrial growth, the shifting meaning of retirement in a world of longer lifespans and AI, and what true financial freedom looks like.

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, Chad Griffiths welcomes returning guest Deren Huang, an industrial investor based in Tulsa. The interview kicks off with a fun lightning-round game where Deren challenges Chad to blindly rank various investments (from gold and Bitcoin to Olive Garden leases and drive-thru wedding chapels). The playful setup leads to insightful discussions about risk tolerance, asset classes, and how personal experience and logic influence investment preferences. Chad consistently favors predictable, scalable investments like the S&P 500 and industrial real estate, while expressing skepticism about novelty concepts and collectibles like vintage guitars.The conversation then shifts into a deeper dive on Darren's evolution from owning over 100 single-family homes to now managing over 200,000 square feet of industrial real estate in Tulsa. He shares candid lessons from early mistakes (such as overvaluing clear height at the expense of location and functionality) and emphasizes key attributes like geometry, site coverage, and access. Darren outlines his buy-box, investment strategy, and how he creatively financed properties during volatile interest rate shifts. He also discusses his transition from residential to industrial, the operational benefits of triple net leases, and his plans to pursue infill development. The interview closes with thoughtful advice to aspiring investors: start by learning the fundamentals, get to know your local market, and always remember that even in commercial real estate, you're still dealing with people.Connect with Deren:Website: https://www.derenhuang.com/tulsaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/derenhuang--

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, Chad Griffiths is joined by co-host Matt Carroll and returning guest Dr. Jim Tompkins to discuss the current state of global trade, tariffs, and how these issues are impacting supply chains and industrial real estate. Dr. Tompkins breaks down the rationale behind U.S. tariffs under President Trump, arguing that while they have caused short-term pain, they are strategically aimed at rebalancing decades of trade deficits. He explains that tariffs, when combined with tax and regulatory strategies, can strengthen domestic manufacturing and reduce dependency on adversarial trade relationships. He compares this approach to adjusting a basketball strategy at halftime—adaptability, not inconsistency, is the goal.The conversation transitions into a broader discussion of “reglobalization,” where supply chains are being restructured for resilience instead of just low cost. Dr. Tompkins outlines how companies should evaluate where to locate operations based on industry clusters, such as semiconductors in Phoenix, Austin, and Columbus, or pharmaceuticals in Boston, New Jersey, and North Carolina. He stresses the importance of optionality—diversifying suppliers and manufacturing locations—and points out how tools and government resources can help small and mid-sized businesses adapt. He concludes on an optimistic note, saying uncertainty is lifting and businesses should stop waiting and start preparing.--

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, Chad Griffiths interviews Charlie Stanton of Valley Advisory and Management to unpack the often overlooked but critical role of property management. With over 1.5 million square feet under management across Texas and Arizona, Charlie explains how property managers are the “catch-all” for maintaining properties, enforcing leases, resolving tenant issues, and mitigating risk, especially in industrial settings where unexpected problems like roof leaks, unauthorized modifications, and illegal dumping are more common than many owners realize.Charlie emphasizes that great property management requires not just responsiveness but also deep knowledge of leases, maintenance, and financial reporting. He highlights how the industry has evolved from handwritten ledgers to sophisticated platforms like Yardi, which improve documentation and transparency. He also stresses the importance of regular site visits, clear communication with tenants, and understanding the full scope of responsibilities tied to commercial leases, especially for smaller tenants who often underestimate their obligations.The conversation wraps with tips for landlords interviewing potential managers: ask about their workload, team structure, tenure, and software tools. Charlie also shares wild stories from the field, including discovering unauthorized mezzanine builds, dealing with vacant buildings, and handling risk scenarios like pothole claims. The big takeaway? Property management is far more complex (and influential) than most people think, especially in industrial real estate.Connect with Charlie:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-stanton-cfa-b8172591Valley Advisory & Management: https://www.vamcre.com/--

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, investor Kip Northrup shares the remarkable story of how he built a 14-property industrial portfolio in Michigan from the ground up, starting with a childhood passion for aquariums that evolved into a water feature business and eventually led him into real estate. Kip explains how early financial struggles pushed him to buy his first property out of necessity, and over time, he grew both his business and real estate holdings by purchasing underutilized or vacant buildings, fixing them up, and holding them long-term. He discusses his hands-on approach to property management with his wife, their preference for owning nearby assets, the emotional ups and downs of investing, and lessons learned from both wins and missteps—including a failed bowling alley redevelopment. Kip emphasizes simplicity in deal analysis, the power of cost segregation for tax advantages, and his passion for working directly with tenants to support small businesses. Now targeting a 50-property portfolio, Kip is cautiously expanding into retail while maintaining his core industrial strategy and values.Connect with Kip:LinkedIn: / kipnorthrup Website: https://pbddevelopment.com/--

Leyla Kunimoto brings a rare and unfiltered perspective to today's commercial real estate conversation: that of a full-time individual LP who writes publicly about her investment decisions. She's not a sponsor, a capital raiser, or a fund manager; she's an investor allocating her own capital and speaking candidly about what she sees in the market.   Through her newsletter Accredited Investor Insights, Leyla connects with hundreds of other LPs and GPs, giving her a uniquely well-informed view of how sentiment is shifting, how sponsors are adapting (or not), and why many individual investors, herself included, are taking a more cautious, capital-preserving stance in the current environment.   Track Records Are the New Credentials Leyla made one thing immediately clear in my conversation with her: experience across market cycles matters more than ever. Sponsors who lived through the Global Financial Crisis (GFC), and made it out intact, view the world differently. “There's a certain level of conservatism they develop,” she said, that translates into more disciplined underwriting, more thoughtful pacing, and fewer emotionally driven decisions.   This stands in sharp contrast to what Leyla observed in 2020, when billboards at Dallas airports advertised real estate masterminds promising to teach people how to raise capital fast. She watched sponsors pile into deals with razor-thin margins, driven more by optimism than fundamentals. Some of those same players are now facing tough questions from investors.   Tariffs Are Already Affecting CRE in Two Big Ways While many LPs focus on interest rates, Leyla highlighted tariffs as a macro driver that's beginning to affect commercial real estate, particularly in development. First, tariffs are raising costs on imported materials, like lumber, pushing construction budgets higher. Second, she's watching what tariffs could mean for demand in the industrial sector.   “If trade with Mexico declines, what happens to logistics facilities near the border?” she asked. Conversely, if reshoring takes off, we may see demand rise for inland warehouse space. It's a nuanced picture and one that sponsors in ground-up deals can't afford to ignore.   Equity Is Cautious. Retail Capital Is Now in Play. Another shift Leyla is tracking is on the capital side. Institutional equity has pulled back in many corners of the market, and some sponsors are turning to retail LPs for the first time. But this isn't an easy pivot.   “Retail investors are expensive to reach,” she said. They also tend to ask more questions – and now, they're more skeptical. Many LPs are sitting on deals that aren't performing. As a result, the bar for new allocations is much higher. “There's a sense of caution,” she noted. “LPs aren't allocating blindly anymore.”   Floating Rate Debt Divides the Market Leyla sees a bifurcated sponsor landscape: those who are still dealing with the aftermath of floating-rate debt, and those who have the capital and flexibility to transact but can't find deals that pencil.   Sponsors with legacy floating-rate loans are focused on rate caps and marginal cash flow. They're rooting for the Fed to cut rates. Others are hunting for acquisitions, but the math isn't working. “Without aggressive assumptions, most deals don't pencil,” she said.   The IRR Illusion: What LPs Should Actually Be Watching Many sponsors still lead with IRR projections, but Leyla has shifted her mindset. “I don't screen for how much money I'm going to make. I don't screen for the IRR probability,” she told me, “the only thing I'm laser beam focused on when I evaluate private placement deals is the probability of losing money.”   That loss-aversion lens changes everything. She believes LPs are better off compounding modest, positive returns over time than chasing double-digit IRRs that come with a real chance of loss. “Making 3-4% positive IRR for 10 years straight outperforms hitting 20% on some deals and going to zero on others,” she said.   Stress Tests Are Private. Optimism Is Public. Behind closed doors, sponsors are more conservative than they let on, she says. The real pros run multiple models – best, worst, and most likely scenarios. “I always ask for stress test scenarios underwritten to the GFC,” she says, continuing that she used to hear sponsors saying such scenarios were never going to play out because the underwriting is too stringent. “I'm hearing a little bit less of that now,” she says.   Still, she's skeptical of any deck that doesn't acknowledge the possibility of a rent decline. Of course deals won't pencil if you underwrite to a 10% rent drop but, in some markets, that's exactly what's happening.   Cash Is a Position. Waiting Is a Strategy. When I asked what she'd do if handed a $1 million windfall today, Leyla didn't hesitate: “I'd keep it in cash and I would try to get very narrow on what my buy box is,” not because she's fearful but because she wants to be surgical when she deploys.   She encourages LPs to be patient and wait for opportunities that fit tight criteria. In an environment where you can make 4.5%+ tax and risk-free, “there's no harm in waiting,” she says. She also shared stories of seasoned sponsors that sold early, sat in cash through the entire 2021 run-up, and are still waiting because they can't find deals that pencil – that are still too expensive for prudent investors.   What Leyla's Watching Now Leyla doesn't try to predict markets. But she does monitor signals: The 10-Year Treasury yield Local supply pipelines Investor sentiment from her network of LPs And her biggest piece of advice? Focus on not losing money. That alone will make you a better investor.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

In this wide-ranging and insightful conversation, economist Todd Hirsch joins Chad Griffiths to discuss the economic uncertainty facing North America in 2025, emphasizing that the global landscape is marked by chaos driven by unpredictable tariffs, geopolitical instability, and technological disruption. Todd argues that traditional forecasting has become futile and that businesses must prepare for a range of outcomes rather than fixed predictions. He notes that while tariffs may incentivize reshoring, the timeline for such shifts is misaligned with their short-term impacts, leaving many companies in a holding pattern. They also explore how AI, autonomous vehicles, and shifting global trade dynamics could reshape labor markets and real estate, though adoption is proving slower than expected. Despite the uncertainty, Todd encourages optimism, adaptability, and a renewed focus on human connection and long-term resilience.About Todd:Todd is a leading expert on adaptability and managing the transition in a complex and unpredictable global economy.

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, I had the honor of interviewing Nick Huber about his new book and his entrepreneurial philosophy. We discuss why speed matters more than over-preparation early in a career, the danger of chasing status over real opportunity, and how decision-making and sales are critical muscles to build for long-term success. About Nick:Nick Huber is an entrepreneur and real estate investor who resides in Athens, Georgia with his wife and three children. He started his first business, Storage Squad in 2011 and grew it to 25 major college towns before he sold the business in 2021 for $1.7M. While running the service business, Nick built his first self storage facility in Ithaca NY from the ground up for $2.4M. That facility is worth over $10M+ today. After Storage Squad, Nick started a real estate private equity and self storage operations firm called Bolt Storage. With his business partner Dan Hagberg, Bolt Storage now owns 2M square feet of self storage across 68 locations in 11 states. There is no mark to market in real-estate but the portfolio is worth well over $100M dollars today. More recently, Nick acquired a controlling stake with a group of investors in Somewhere.com for $52 million dollars in May of 2024. Somewhere has helped over 3500 businesses hire more than 6000 remote workers for 80% less than US equivalents. The business has 200 employees located worldwide across 9 countries including the US, Latin America, South Africa, the Philippines and more. In total, Nick's businesses do more than $30 million in annual revenue and employ over 325 people.

I was pleased to be joined by the illustrious Dr. Peter Linneman to get his thoughts on the economy, tariffs and the industrial real estate market!In the interview Dr. Peter Linneman shares his perspective on current events in the industrial real estate market, emphasizing the importance of cutting through the noise to focus on fundamental economic indicators such as job growth, GDP trends, and capital flows. He uses an analogy of trying to predict the Super Bowl winner 10 years from now to illustrate the futility of long-term market forecasts based on short-term events. Linneman discusses the state of various real estate sectors, noting that office spaces have bottomed out and are starting to recover, while industrial warehouses, particularly big-box facilities, have experienced overbuilding but are expected to absorb excess supply due to steady demand growth. He also addresses reshoring and manufacturing, stating it will remain limited due to higher labor costs in the U.S., and emphasizes America's economic strength due to robust capital markets and innovation. Linneman remains optimistic about the resilience and long-term strength of the U.S. economy despite ongoing challenges.About Dr. Linneman: For nearly 45 years, Dr. Peter Linneman's unique blend of scholarly rigor and practical business insight has won him accolades from around the world, including PREA's prestigious Graaskamp Award for Real Estate Research, Wharton's Zell-Lurie Real Estate Center's Lifetime Achievement Award, Realty Stock Magazine's Special Achievement Award, being named "One of the 25 Most Influential People in Real Estate" by Realtor Magazine and inclusion in The New York Observer's "100 Most Powerful People in New York Real Estate".After receiving both his Masters and Doctorate in Economics under the tutelage of Nobel Prize winners Milton Friedman, Gary Becker, George Stigler, Ted Schultz and Jim Heckman, Peter had a distinguished academic career at both The University of Chicago and the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania.
