Key Takeaways Real estate investment is not one size fits all; it's essential to find a model that aligns with your values and business approach. Operating virtually in real estate is not only feasible but can be advantageous, leveraging technology and avoiding physical constraints. Mezzanine debt provides equity-like returns with a safer position, offering a bridge for deals facing challenges like rising interest rates. Prudent preparation involves considering multiple scenarios, both optimistic and pessimistic, to navigate uncertainties in the market. Lesson number one, diversify. Lesson number two, diversify in time. Diversify among many dimensions of diversification. Where you invest, location, who do you invest with, what kind of strategy. Timeline [03:26] Intro to episode guest [05:16] One word that describes Mike personally and professionally. [07:10] Let's talk a little bit about your background, and what you've done and how you got into the investment field and what that looks like for you today? [13:05] Do you really like sponsors that are more vertically integrated or not? [18:00] How's your team set up? How's your structure? How does your group operate? [22:21] Is your team solely focused on raising capital, and what types of investors do you attract—individuals, family offices, or institutional funds? [26:48] What's your market outlook for the next 12-24 months amid current uncertainties? Contact Email: bigmikefund.com

When you invest in real estate, it's not just about the deal but also about the people behind it. You have to know, like and, most importantly, trust who you decide to give your capital to, which isn't an easy or quick process. That's why, today, I interview Mike Zlotnik, aka Big Mike, who knows how to choose the best-of-the-best operators to work with and protect his investors from unpromising deals. Real estate is a game of patience and demands trust from both the operators and investors.  As a passive investor, no one is going to advocate for you in a bad deal… But investing in a fund with a skilled team, like Mike's, can offer peace of mind in knowing that people are looking out for you. Transparency is key to understanding a deal and trusting the operators executing it.  Don't let yourself get distracted by the newest investing fad and overlook the potential risks. Understand who you are investing with, predict the potential downfalls of your investment and make a game plan for mitigating any risks. So, tune in today to know how you can protect your investors from bad investments and hedge against market pressures!  Take control,  Hunter Thompson Resources mentioned in the podcast: Mike Zlotnik Website Interested in investing with Asym Capital? Check out our webinar.   Please note that investing in private placement securities entails a high degree of risk, including illiquidity of the investment and loss of principal.

In this episode, Jason interviews Mike Zlotnik from the Tempo Family of Funds https://tempofunding.com/ to gain insights into the current state of the real estate market. Mike discusses the impact of high-interest rates on commercial and residential properties, particularly in the retail and office space sectors. He mentions that transaction volumes have significantly declined, with some properties being sold at a distress due to the need for immediate sales. However, multi-family apartments and self-storage properties continue to perform relatively well. Mike highlights the challenges faced by value-add projects that were acquired with bridge loans and are now reaching maturity. These assets may need to be sold at a discount if refinancing is not feasible. Additionally, he mentions the difficulty in raising cash for refinancing within syndications, as investors may not be willing to contribute more funds. Despite the challenges, Mike believes that the market may improve if interest rates stabilize or decrease.  They also discuss various economic topics, including unemployment, inflation, central planning, entitlements, and the real estate market. They touch upon the impact of technology and artificial intelligence on employment, the shortage of workers in the housing construction sector, and the shift from fix-and-flip properties to new construction properties in the real estate market. They also mention the decline in hard money loan volume for fix-and-flip projects and the need for more distressed properties in order to stimulate the market. While they have different perspectives on how these issues can be resolved, they agree that the current economic situation presents challenges and uncertainties. #realestate #marketupdate #commercialproperty #residentialproperty #transactionvolume #interestrates Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial Jason's editorial 0:27 Greetings from the beautiful Danube river 1:12 Shortage of houses affecting people and areas harder than other 2:53 We have 700 videos on our Main YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@JasonHartmanRealEstate/videos 3:22 Itinerary for the next few weeks Mike Zlotnik interview 5:00 Welcome Mike Zlotnik; an overview of different asset classes 8:10 Transactional volume for office space is down by 75% 9:12 The residential market trend is going down 11:30 Extending or renegotiating deals 14:10 The banks and the creature form Jekyll Island 15:45 Prediction on what the FED is going to do 18:32 Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities, residential market and the overall economy 21:22 Entitlements and a giant shortage of workers especially in the housing sector 23:03 Hard money lending, the build-to-rent model and the shortage of inventory 27:57 Awesome mortgage rates equals non-distressed home sellers 30:42 Home builders are starting at such high prices 32:07 Being opportunistic in this current environment and buying build-to-rent properties   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason discusses various topics related to the housing market and investment strategies. He covers issues such as the housing shortage, market trends, and the importance of understanding real estate investment math. He also touches on the significance of increasing one's failure rate to achieve success. He then emphasizes the need for proper analysis when investing in income properties and addresses concerns about potential market corrections. Additionally, he mentions the challenges of high interest rates and how they impact the real estate market. He closes about the ongoing shortage of housing inventory in various regions of the country- most especially in New York. He then goes to part 2 of his interview with Mike Zlotnik of TempoFunding.com. They discuss the current housing market situation and the significant shortage of entry-level home construction due to various factors like high construction costs, labor shortages, and regulations. The demand for new homes has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the supply remains limited. Jason then touches on topics like the aging construction workforce and the difficulty in finding young people willing to work in construction. He predicts a housing shortage for decades unless there are significant changes in government policies, labor markets, or construction technology. They also mention rising property taxes and insurance costs, with Jason noting that many of the rental properties his company deals with are new constructions and not affected by high insurance costs. They also briefly discuss the idea of converting office buildings into housing to increase housing supply but note the challenges and costs involved.

Today's podcast features an interview Jason did for Mike Zlotnik of the BogMikeFund podcast, discussing market insights and investment strategies. Jason begins with a mention of a financing program offering 2.99% with zero points, accessible via the website jasonhartman.com/financing. Jason is also promoting the Empowered Investor Pro monthly meeting, highlighting the value of networking and building a real estate investment team. He emphasizes the affordability of joining this program and encourages listeners to participate, as the community offers insights for empowered investors looking to make informed decisions in the real estate market. Then Jason and Mike discuss the current state of the real estate market. They touch upon various topics, including interest rates, the value of mortgages, and housing market trends. Jason emphasizes that despite the recent rate hikes, the real estate market remains resilient, with low inventory and high demand. He also suggests that homeowners with low-interest mortgages are unlikely to sell their properties, even in challenging economic conditions, as their mortgages are valuable assets. Jason predicts that the market will continue to perform well, and people will find creative ways to keep their properties and take advantage of their low mortgage rates.

In all the interviews that I've ever done, this one just might be my favorite one yet. My guest today is a long time friend, Mike Zlotnk. I thought his insights on hotel to multifamily conversions were fascinating and the economics of stripping out cash flow and depreciation and then giving them to different types of investor groups was equally brilliant. Mike is the CEO of TF Management Group, LLC which runs four real estate investment funds. He has been a debt and equity investor in real estate since 2000. After a successful 15 year career in IT, he pivoted to real estate investing because of his passion for real estate and its predictability of outcome and risks. I was completely blown away with how Mike structures preferred equity versus common equity, common equity versus mezzanine debt, how he pulls out the cash flow in an A share, and how to strip out the depreciation through a cost segregation study in a B share. I'll definitely be using this in my own company, and I'm sure some of you will too. In this interview, we also dive into how Mike raises capital, what makes a hotel property an ideal candidate for a multifamily conversion, why hotel conversions are generally low risk investments, and so much more!  Key Takeaways with Mike Zlotnik Why Mike decided to focus on hotel to multifamily conversions. How he structures preferred equity versus common equity shares. How you can pull out the cash flow in a Class A share and use the depreciation through a cost segregation study in a Class B share. The ideal hotel properties that are best suited for conversions to multifamily properties. Why high-rise properties are not ideal candidates for conversions. The three most common ways to enter the multifamily real estate investing space. Why conversions are a lower risk investment than building from the ground up, especially with the current costs of supplies and labor. Want the Full Show Notes?
