How can real estate investors avoid common mistakes and find true success in multifamily syndications? Angel Williams sits down with fellow real estate investor Kenneth Gee to discuss their journeys into multifamily syndication and passive investing. They share how they each found real estate as a way to gain more freedom and spend time with family, while still earning strong returns. The conversation then dives into the importance of education, choosing the right partners, and truly understanding the business of real estate. Kenneth emphasizes that with the right knowledge, systems and expertise, real estate investors can achieve financial success without unnecessary risk. Kenneth is the founder and managing partner of KRI Partners and the KRI group of companies. He has more than 24 years of significant real estate, banking, private equity transaction, and principal investing experience. Throughout his career, he has been involved in transactions valued at more than $2.0 billion, much of which has included the acquisition, management, and financing of various multi-family real estate projects. [00:01:00 - 00:04:00] Getting Started in Real Estate Investing Angel and Kenneth share their origin stories of getting started in real estate investing. They were both seeking more freedom and flexibility to spend time with family. Real estate provided the ability to build wealth while setting their own schedules. [00:04:00 - 00:08:00] The Problem with Coaching Programs Many new coaching programs promise passive income but don't deliver. The coaches often lack real multifamily investing experience. This sets investors up for failure when they try to raise money. [00:08:00 - 00:12:00] The Keys to Multifamily Success Education should teach you "what, how and why" to properly run the business. Having an experienced mentor by your side is invaluable. Underwriting is critical and needs to be a living, breathing document. [00:12:00 - 00:16:00] The Importance of Choosing the Right Partners Kenneth structures programs to ensure students' success in real estate. He shares his systems, spreadsheets and hard-won knowledge. You must know how to choose the right people - management, maintenance, etc. [00:16:00 - 00:18:00] Mistakes to Avoid as a New Investor Many want GP participation but LP responsibility. Realize it's an active business. Multifamily is far more complex than residential - it's not just adding zeros. Take time to learn the fundamentals before raising money.

Axel interviews Ken Gee, founder and managing partner of KRI Partners, to talk about the five crucial steps you must take to renovate your multifamily properties. There is a profitable way to invest in real estate, and that is finding a tired multifamily property and putting life back into it through good management, capital improvements and renovations. By doing this, you are adding exponential value not only to the property and investment but to someone's life too. In this episode Ken and Axel dive deep into the five most important steps you must take to renovate successfully a multifamily property: the first three are a must and refer to a depth-in market study - your entire business plan is based on this step -, the determination of a renovation budget and a “sit on your hands” period. The other two refer to the importance of making an outside-in renovation approach and being willing to reassess the plan as you walk through the renovation. Furthermore they talk about how to handle renovations in common areas and why Ken choses the exit strategy of holding on to the property for three or five years.

Welcome to the Managing CRE Risk podcast with Jeremy Goodrich. Today, we have a veteran CRE investor with us who has more than 25 years of experience, Ken Gee. In our conversation, Ken breaks down risk in different parts of the lifecycle of a commercial real estate deal. He lays out how to succeed in the CRE world and mitigate the risks through due diligence, raising capital, and asset management. You don't want to miss out on this episode! Learn more about Ken and his story at shineinsurance.com/managing-commercial-real-estate-risk! “I've always told our investors, it's my job to try to protect the downside and make sure we have a good upside plan in place.” 04:52 Ken has around 2000 doors in his portfolio and he's been investing in commercial real estate for more than 25 years. He describes himself as a risk-averse person. According to him, one of the hardest aspects of real estate investing is bringing yourself to the awareness of the risks that you want to mitigate. Ken's advice on how to successfully identify and mitigate risk: Educate yourself on the industry, market, and property. Focus on your operation and constantly evaluate your business plan. Have a solid insurance policy. Identifying risk comes easier with experience, so don't give up. “There's going to be things wrong everywhere. It's just a fact of life. What our job is, is to identify risks that matter.” 12:40 Ken talks about how to manage the risks surrounding the lifecycle of the property. Due diligenceLook at the physical property and see if there are hidden things there that are difficult to correct or significantly impact your business plan. Ken's advice is to find a mentor at the beginning of your investing journey to help you build out your due diligence process. Document the entire procedure. Raising capitalIt's important for passive investors to understand what it means to be invested in a multifamily real estate deal. Ask all the uncomfortable questions from the sponsor to evaluate if they're professional and knowledgeable enough. Figure out if they're transparent and have a good track record. Asset managementGive yourself 30-60 days to learn everything about the property before you start the renovation. Based on this information, modify your business plan. Ken shares his insight on CRE risks in the near future. Interest rates have doubled in the last year and we might go into a recession. In the real estate industry, the most important thing is occupancy, so make sure you're buying in a growth market and keep your occupancy high.
