Ryan Sudeck is the CEO of Sage Investment Group, where he leads a team focused on addressing the affordable housing crisis through hotel-to-apartment conversions. With a background in mergers and acquisitions at Amazon, Samsung, and Redfin, Ryan has overseen more than 24 successful adaptive reuse projects nationwide. Under his leadership, Sage operates an evergreen fund with over 400 investors, creating high-quality, naturally affordable housing at scale.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Hotels are valued differently than apartments, creating a 40%+ value lift when converted to residential use. Sage Investment Group has completed 24 hotel-to-apartment conversions across six states, with 100–200 units per property. Units are typically 300-square-foot studios with full kitchens and modern amenities. Strong diligence on entitlements, construction, and lease-up is critical for success. Patience in acquisitions—sometimes two years per deal—is key to meeting return thresholds.     Topics From M&A to Affordable Housing Ryan's career in corporate acquisitions prepared him to lead Sage. Joined as CEO to scale a mission-driven approach to solving the housing shortage. Why Hotel Conversions Work Hotels trade at higher cap rates than apartments, creating built-in arbitrage. Conversion costs average $100K per unit—about half the replacement cost of new builds. Final product: fully renovated studios with fitness centers, coworking, and community amenities. Execution Risks and Lessons Learned Entitlements: converting from commercial to residential requires local approvals. Construction: inspections, sewer scopes, and cutting open walls before purchase to avoid surprises. Lease-up: conservative rent assumptions and regional property managers ensure stabilized occupancy. Capital Stack and Returns Evergreen fund supplies 25–35% of equity alongside LPs. Senior debt from community banks or private debt funds covers 60–75%. Renovation costs run $35K–$45K per unit; recent refis have returned significant equity. Why Not Ground-Up or Value-Add? Ground-up costs 2x more per unit and faces supply delays. Value-add multifamily is overpriced with thin margins post-2021. Conversions provide stronger risk-adjusted returns.    

Do you ever dream about having multiple homes around the world but assume it's only possible much later in life?For quite some time, this was just a dream written on our Life Canvas. Today, we're holding the keys to a three-story villa with ocean views and rice paddy fields stretching endlessly beyond what will be our future home.This is what happens when intention meets opportunity and how a casual walk down a street can completely accelerate your long-term vision.So in this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly how this unfolded, from the moment I spotted construction happening down the road to negotiating lease terms, hiring lawyers, and setting up what we're calling our "Freedom House."What You'll Learn:How we navigated property systems across countries and how Bali's long-term lease system opened doors we didn't expectThe exact decision-making framework we used to evaluate properties and why building relationships with landlords mattered more than negotiating priceWhat it actually takes to establish life in a new country and why giving yourself 2+ months to find your rhythm is non-negotiableThe business foundation that made this move possible and how location-independent income, homeschooling plans, and remote systems created our freedomWhy we're turning our villa into a "Freedom House" for monthly rentals and business intensives (and how you might experience it yourself) Hosted on Acast.

What if you could buy a property that cash flows from day one, has tenants who've been there for 10+ years, and just experienced 22% rent growth while multifamily struggles with competition? In this continuation episode, Daniel Holmlund dives deep into the mechanics of industrial flex space investing and why it's outperforming traditional real estate sectors. He explains how supply chain disruptions created a "computer cache" effect—businesses want inventory stored close to consumers rather than sitting on ships at sea. Daniel breaks down the advantages of triple net leases where tenants pay utilities, taxes, and maintenance, plus shares real examples of how flexible spaces allow businesses to scale up without relocating. This conversation explores the predictable cash flows, long-term tenant relationships, and 10-year projections that make industrial flex space attractive for retirement planning investors. [00:01 - 05:00] Performance Metrics That Beat Multifamily How industrial flex space achieved 22% rent increases compared to struggling multifamily returns Why occupancy remains strong near ports, airports, and centralized hub locations The "flight to quality" investment thesis as competition drives down multifamily returns [05:01 - 10:00] The Computer Cache Analogy for Supply Chain How businesses create storage layers: global shipping, US land-based, and last-mile facilities Why 10x increases in trans-oceanic shipping costs drive near-consumer storage demand Real examples: toilet paper hoarding and just-in-time inventory failures during COVID [10:01 - 15:00] Triple Net Lease Advantages and Risks How tenants pay rent plus utilities, taxes, insurance, and common area expenses Why $250,000 chillers and temperature control costs are tenant responsibilities The critical importance of lease audits and understanding complex tenant obligations [15:01 - 20:30] Predictable Cash Flow and Long-Term Planning How 10+ year tenant relationships create day-one cash flow opportunities Why industrial tenants rarely relocate compared to residential or short-term rental turnover Building 10-year financial projections for retirement planning versus unpredictable stock market Connect with Daniel: Email: daniel@growyourbusinesswithai.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-holmlund/ Key Quotes: "Industrial flex space has increased its rent by 22%.

Are you a landowner who wants your ranch to pass cleanly to the next generation—or a land agent tired of deals dying over cloudy title? In this episode of The National Land Podcast, host Mac Christian sits down with Tiffany Dowell Lashmet (Ag Law Professor & Extension Specialist, Texas A&M) and Wayne Dunson (Managing Broker, National Land Realty—West Texas) to demystify probate—the legal process that moves assets from the deceased to the living—and the tools that keep it from blowing up your land plans. What You'll Learn: What probate is and why you still need it even if there's a will Dying without a will (intestacy): how state statutes—not your wishes—divide assets and create messy joint ownership Why failing to probate strands title in the deceased's name, blocks sales, and costs heirs more later (e.g., Texas has a typical 4-year window) Wills vs. Trusts: trusts can bypass probate entirely; when each makes sense for landowners Texas will execution basics: handwritten (holographic) vs. typewritten wills, witness rules, and why beneficiaries shouldn't witness Probate-avoidance tools: LLCs and transfer-on-death deeds (in Texas, revocable) to move property with only a death certificate Real-world horror stories: unknown heirs, missing co-owners, partition suits, deep discounts to clear title Family dynamics you must address now: on-farm vs. off-farm heirs, unequal contributions, and setting expectations Why DIY online forms backfire on farms/ranches—hire an ag-savvy estate-planning attorney in your state Agent playbook: verify probate status early, flag title clouds, and get clients to counsel before listing This episode is a must-listen for: Landowners and family decision-makers on farms and ranches Heirs, executors, and trustees facing title/estate questions Land agents/brokers who want to prevent deal-killing probate issues CPAs and attorneys serving rural clients Don't punt on probate. A valid, state-compliant plan now is cheaper than courtroom chaos later—get the right documents in place, probate on time, and keep your land legacy intact.   Read about Tiffany Lashmet https://agecon.tamu.edu/people/dowell-lashmet-tiffany/   Contact Wayne Dunson https://nationalland.com/real-estate-agent/wayne-dunson   National Land Realty Buy, Sell, Lease, or Auction Land https://www.nationalland.com

New Mountain Capital's Teddy Kaplan and CBRE's Will Pike explore why this resilient, tax-efficient investment strategy is gaining favor.Attractive in volatile markets: Positioned as a hybrid asset class—part real estate and part structured finance, net lease investments offer cash flow backed by quality credit tenants.Manufacturing momentum: Production facilities are emerging as high-performing assets due to their strong cash flow and tenant investment in infrastructure.Sale-leasebacks as strategic tools: Investors and corporate occupiers are increasingly using sale-leasebacks to unlock capital, especially in sectors where considerable capital is tied up in operating assets.· Capital market resilience: Despite macroeconomic headwinds, net lease is attracting institutional capital, with growing interest from large institutions and wealth management channels.· Risk-adjusted returns and geographic nuance: Cap rates and valuations vary significantly by location and tenant credit quality, underscoring the importance of underwriting both real estate fundamentals and corporate financial health.

The Pentagon is considering a plan that would lease parts of Camp Pendleton, we tell you why. Then, we hear from Will Rodriguez-Kennedy who is back as the head of the San Diego Democratic Party. And, a psychiatric hospital set for North County just lost a chunk of funding. Plus, just weeks before the new Terminal 1 opens at San Diego International, one airline is opting out.

Today we are talking about a deal we recently raised for, mostly so you can understand some of the things that happen behind the scenes and why we decided to have this be our first syndication for 2025.Read this episode here: https://tinyurl.com/2km2c2k9Why did it pass our test besides the fact that these partners have a great track record and having exited 4 deals with them?1. Low vacancy. There is a shortage of small bay industrial in the Phoenix market, people have been building large bay industrial. For the small tenants that need a smaller space, the available inventory is very low.2. Leases expiring and below market. A lot of the tenants had their lease expiring during our ownership, and the vast majority is below market, one of the largest tenants in the property with the biggest rent upside, already decided to not renew. We underwrote them not renewing a year from now, and they are significantly below market.3. IG Leases. All of the tenants except one are on industrial gross (IG) leases. We are converting all of the tenants to NNN leases. This will also increase the bottom line for our investors.4. Prohibited cost to build. Besides the market having very low vacancy, the vast majority of tenants being between 30 to 70% below market, and the leases expiring in the next 24 months, small bay industrial is cost prohibited to build. It costs more to build than the rents that you're going to get. We are purchasing the property at a significant discount to replacement cost. The property was built in 1999 and it looks really good.5. Location. The property has freeway visibility and is right next to the freeway exit.6. Market. Phoenix is a phenomenal market. It has a 16% population growth since 2010, a job growth of 45 to 50% since 2010. The personal income tax is very low at 2.5%. They're exploding in terms of plants, campuses, and jobs being created in the area. There is a $65 billion chip plant being created next to the property. There is a $20 billion Intel expansion. These are all creating jobs, which is always a great sign of a phenomenal market to be in.Final ThoughtsThe raise took a little bit longer than what we thought it was going to take. We did not finish the entire raise and still have a couple million to go, however, we did manage to close on the property and the couple million that we have to go is mainly for reserves, so that still needs to be finalized.Commercial Real Estate Tips Learned Recently:Turn expense into income: e.g., rent dumpster out.You can open a Senior Living home in any state if one tenant has a disability due to the ADA / Fair Housing Act.Always over-raise in case investors don't send funds.If a deal blows up, attorney often refunds fees (to keep you as a client).When you refinance, you don't pay taxes. This means you can cash out of a property, or get a line of credit, and buy another property without paying taxes on that down payment. Make sure you are comfortable with the LTV's when you cash out.Interest rates are always negotiable, you can get ~0.25% interest rate break if you open a checking/savings with lender.When developing a property from the ground up, always assume that the piece of land has all of these: endangered species, wetlands, easements, utility issues, trees – until proven otherwise. This means you need to get all of these reports and surveys done (amongst many other things)) before purchasing a piece of land for development.Join our investor club here: https://montecarlorei.com/investors/

2025's ag laws, no spin. American Farm Burueau Federation Economist, Daniel Munch, breaks down what the American Relief Act and HR1 (“One Big Beautiful Bill”) actually changed for farmers, ranchers, and timberland owners: disaster aid, tax relief, ARC/PLC extensions, conservation through 2031, disease‑readiness funding—and what Washington still hasn't fixed. Why these passed: must‑pass funding + reconciliation math, not kumbaya. Core programs extended to 2031: ARC/PLC, Dairy Margin Coverage; EQIP/CSP/ACEP funded forward. CRP: not extended in HR1; needs separate action (a “skinny” farm bill or stand‑alone). Disaster money: ~$30B total in the Relief Act (≈$10B economic aid to row‑crops; ≈$20B disasters). Helpful, not enough to backfill multi‑year crop, livestock, timber, and infrastructure losses. Drought trigger fixed: LFP now four consecutive weeks of qualifying drought (down from eight). Rancher win: LIP now 100% compensation for federally protected predator kills (wolves/grizzlies). State block grants: Flexibility for hard‑hit states (e.g., hurricane zones) that can include timber. Taxes you can actually use: Estate tax exemption permanent at $15M / $30M couple; 199A stays; bonus depreciation back; Section 179 expensing up to $2.5M for equipment and capital improvements (barns, fencing, irrigation). Clean fuel credits (45Z): benefits risk getting stuck at processors unless contracts force value back to growers. Disease readiness: $233M/year mandated for stockpiles, diagnostics, training—real money to keep herds healthy. Market context: Land values up but margins down; these programs support lender confidence but don't erase price pressure. Foreign land ownership: Data/reporting gaps are real; enforcement and look‑through need teeth; private‑property rights vs. national‑security concerns. Why SNAP stays in the farm bill: urban votes keep farm programs alive. No SNAP = no votes = no farm bill.

Is it really a money hack if it leaves you wondering whether you’re saving money… or just signing up for a fancier kind of debt? This week, we’re unpacking the financial mystery that is the novated lease & whether they’re a money win or just marketing spin.

Memphis Grizzlies Lease Negotiations with City of Memphis and FedExForum- Sam Hardiman with Geoff Calkins on 92.9 FM ESPN WMFS

Welcome to Episode 101 of Tablesetters! Today, we're joined by Declan Goff, the executive producer for Purple Daily and #MNTwins at SKOR North. If you follow Minnesota sport,s you already know his voice and his work. Declan has been covering the Vikings and Twins for years, helping drive some of the most engaging sports talk in the Twin Cities. In this episode, we break down one of the most surprising stories of the summer. On August 13, the Pohlad family announced they would not be selling the Twins after all. Many outside Minnesota assumed a sale was inevitable, but instead, the Pohlads are staying in control while bringing in two minority investors. Declan shares his perspective on whether this move signals real change in payroll, player development, and the team's philosophy, or if it looks more like a financial maneuver that lets ownership keep things steady. That story also ties directly into the team's long-term security in Minnesota. Target Field's lease currently runs through 2039, with an option to extend to 2059 if lawmakers approve a continuation of the stadium sales tax. When the legislature declined to extend the tax this summer, it left the issue unresolved. With attendance slipping, the question of stability is pressing. We ask Declan whether relocation could ever become a legitimate concern for the Twins, or if that fear is being overstated. From there, we dig into the reset at the trade deadline, where Minnesota moved ten Major League players, including Carlos Correa and Jhoan Duran. Derek Falvey called it a reload rather than a teardown, but was this one of the most dramatic resets in recent franchise history? Declan offers his insight into how fans should view this moment. We also talk about clubhouse culture, leadership, and the future core. From Pablo López's call for consistency, to the arrivals of Mick Abel and Eduardo Tait, to the emergence of Luke Keaschall, we examine who can carry the next era of Twins baseball and whether this roster can build an identity that lasts. Financial realities loom large as well. Payroll projections suggest Minnesota could be working near the 100 million dollar mark by 2026, potentially the lowest in baseball. With division rivals trending upward, is contending in the Central still realistic, or does it point to more years of retooling? Other key questions include: which of the deadline acquisitions could impact the roster as soon as 2026, how secure Rocco Baldelli is in his role, whether fans should embrace the draft lottery, and what Byron Buxton's public support for ownership reveals about the disconnect between the clubhouse and the fan base. We close by asking Declan how his own history as a Twins fan shapes the way he sees this reset. After years of division titles, heartbreak, and now another rebuild, does hope remain for another renaissance, or has the weight of ownership decisions changed what it feels like to root for this team? Declan brings a unique blend of passion and sharp perspective that makes Minnesota sports relatable and real. On Purple Daily and #MNTwins at SKOR North, his timing, insight, and authenticity connect with fans in a way that feels true to the market. Follow him on Twitter/X @DexsTweets for smart, real-time reactions that cut to the heart of the story.

Memphis Grizzlies---Chris Herrington from the Daily Memphian with Geoff Calkins on Hardiman Lease Negotiation on FedExForum

Mortenson's Maja Rosenquist and CBRE's Gordon Dolven examine one of real estate's most dynamic sectors. They discuss how AI's growth has accelerated data center development, how site-selection strategies are evolving and the challenges posed by power constraints.Key takeaways on data center trends:· Data center site selection is increasingly dictated by access to scalable power, increasing development in markets with robust energy infrastructure.· AI-driven demand is accelerating the need for hyperscale campuses, with some sites spanning thousands of acres and requiring gigawatt-level capacity.· Lease structures are based on power usage rather than square footage, with rental rates rebounding over 50% since 2021 due to limited availability.· Long-term capital is flowing into the sector, with infrastructure funds driving a shift in investment strategies.· Labor and construction cost pressures are prompting innovations like prefabrication to meet the demands of billion-dollar builds.

Drew Hill and Chris Herrington analyze the 2025-26 Grizzlies schedule and are joined by Sam Hardiman to discuss the franchise's lease situation at FedExForum.

Frenetic crowds are storming the White House like a Black Friday mob at Walmart!Only these are not shoppers scrambling for family needs – these are CEOs, lobbyists, and billionaires out to “get theirs” in the huge Trump-a-Thon sell-off of Presidential favors. Common folks need not apply, since MAGA, Inc. (Trump's political fundraising sack) charges a million bucks or more just to buy access to his golden throne.Once there, everything is for sale. One cryptocurrency huckster, for example, delivered his million to get into a candlelight dinner at Mar-a-Lago, where he pitched a business deal to Trump himself. Then, for an extra $200,000, the crypto-guy was allowed to “sponsor” the annual Easter Egg Roll on the White House lawn. Yes – they've even financialized and corporatized an apolitical, publicly-funded event for children!Not only is Trump being bought by Big Money, but he's also available for short-term lease. For example, rich businesswoman Elizabeth Fago leased him in April for some heavy lifting on a household chore. Her son Paul had been found guilty last year of tax crimes and was headed to prison. But a million dollar check to MAGA Inc. put her in direct touch with Mister Fix-It. Sure enough, once her check was cashed, the fortunate son was granted “a full and unconditional” presidential pardon – no jail time, no payment of restitution to his victims.When the New York Times asked about such corrupt selling of official favors, MAGA Inc. declared that Trump treats every American the same. So, there you have Trump's million-dollar definition of “American.” If you've got the million, you're in the club. If you don't, you're not.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.
