In 2021, you could close your eyes, hand a property to a third-party manager, and still double your money. Not anymore. Today's market is a different beast—rising interest rates, valuation corrections, overbuilding, and tightening debt markets have completely changed the rules. That's why I brought back Josh Welch and Mark Shuler—two operators with over 4,000 units under management—to unpack exactly how they're navigating the storm. In this episode, they reveal: Why efficiency and process are the new unfair advantage How to scale property operations without losing control The hidden risks in today's debt markets most investors are ignoring How top operators are buying deals at 2018 prices… and winning Josh also shares how his in-house team is turning struggling properties around, even ones with 30% delinquency. If you're serious about navigating the next cycle and staying ahead of the herd…listen to the episode now. Take Control, Hunter Thompson Resources mentioned in the episode: 1. Josh Welch Website 2.

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan speaks with Owen Barrett, founder and CEO of Shine, a solar company built by apartment owners for apartment owners. With a background in finance and clean energy, Owen brings a pragmatic and results-driven mindset to a traditionally misunderstood corner of multifamily investing—onsite solar energy. Owen shares how his first exposure to real estate came after achieving financial independence through his solar ventures. Instead of starting small, he jumped into a 64-unit building, testing how large-scale solar could be layered into multifamily investment. That experience, although imperfect, helped shape Shine's business model: targeting properties with 100+ units where solar not only benefits the environment but also boosts returns. Jonathan and Owen examine the financial mechanics of solar energy in multifamily properties, from cost segregation and tax credits to NOI increases and tenant retention. Owen explains how Shine's proprietary software allows solar installations to serve individually metered units, a longstanding challenge in the space. He also breaks down how syndicators and institutional investors approach solar differently, and why understanding your audience is key when pitching value-add improvements. Owen emphasizes that solar is not about selling environmental benefits. It's about improving the bottom line. But the secondary benefits, such as tenant retention, lower utility inflation, and greater resilience during energy volatility, add long-term value. For syndicators and operators seeking to future-proof their assets, this conversation is packed with strategic thinking, cost-saving tactics, and clear-eyed lessons from someone who installs what he owns. In this episode, you will hear: How Owen Barrett transitioned from solar to multifamily real estate Using solar to increase NOI and attract investors Cost segregation, tax credits, and depreciation benefits Why roof condition is a make-or-break factor for installations The difference in decision-making between syndicators and institutions Leveraging solar to reduce tenant utility costs and turnover The reason early due diligence makes or breaks solar ROI Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Is insurance the hidden reason multifamily deals no longer pencil like they used to? In this episode, Jeannette Friedrich, Director of Investor Relations at Blue Lake Capital, breaks down how a global phenomenon called reinsurance is driving up insurance costs across the U.S. and eroding investor returns.

This episode covers: What reinsurance is and why it impacts local multifamily investments How premiums have surged 30% to 50% in 2023 and 2024 due to climate risk and inflation Why insurance now consumes as much as 9% of gross income in some deals How this shift is affecting underwriting, deal flow, and investor distributions Red flags passive investors should watch for when reviewing deals What proactive sponsors are doing to mitigate insurance risk, such as shifting markets, increasing deductibles, and focusing on disaster-resilient CapEx Why conservative underwriting and geographic diversification matter more than ever To dive deeper into how insurance fits into broader 2025 risk trends, check out our H2 Multifamily Outlook Report here: https://hubs.la/Q03rwdbQ0  Timestamps 00:00 Introduction to Multifamily Investment Challenges 00:42 Understanding Reinsurance 01:20 Impact of Reinsurance on Multifamily Investments 02:59 Strategies for Investors to Mitigate Insurance Costs 04:08 Evaluating Sponsor Practices 04:35 Blue Lake's Approach and Resources Are you REady2Scale Your Multifamily Investments?

Key Takeaways Use forward-looking strategies when investing. Successful land deals are structured today based on projected market conditions two to three years ahead. Partner with experienced developers to access opportunities like land entitlement and horizontal development that are typically closed to average investors. Mitigate risk by reverse engineering deals. Secure exit contracts with homebuilders before initiating entitlement and development. Focus on scalable solutions. Land development meets long-term housing demands, especially in high-growth Sunbelt markets. Diversify your real estate portfolio by including high-growth, high-return assets like land development alongside cash-flowing multifamily. Look for investments that multiply capital, not just preserve it. This is especially important during your prime wealth-building years.

Forget what you've been told about retirement. In this episode, Michael Blank breaks down why chasing the dream of sitting on a beach at 65 is not just outdated—it's dangerous. He unpacks the flawed math behind 401(k)s, FIRE, and single-family rentals, and lays out a smarter, faster path to freedom through multifamily syndications. If you're a high-income earner chasing control over your time, this episode will reframe how you think about “retirement” and show you how to buy your time back—on your terms.Key TakeawaysRetirement Is Not the Goal—Freedom IsTraditional retirement means doing nothing, and that's not fulfilling for most people.After a short break, high performers crave impact, purpose, and productivity.Financial freedom gives you options—to work, to rest, to choose how you live.The Math of Retirement Doesn't WorkThe 4% Rule requires you to save $3M+ for $10K/month in passive income—before inflation.With inflation, that number balloons to $7.3M to maintain your current lifestyle.Very few people are saving $2K–$15K/month for 10–30 years consistently.Why the FIRE Movement Falls ShortFIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) demands extreme frugality—up to 70% savings rates.It's built on sacrifice and still relies on fragile stock market assumptions.Once “retired,” most FIRE followers still live lean—without true freedom or fulfillment.Why Rentals Are Better—But Still Not EnoughEven buying one rental per year doesn't get you to $10K/month cash flow fast.50 rentals = $10K/month at $200/month per property—a huge operational burden.BRRRR and flips can help, but they're still slow, time-intensive, and hard to scale.Multifamily Syndications: The Fast Track to FreedomAcquisition fees from one deal can replace your income and give you a 12-month runway.Syndications have multiple profit centers: fees, cash flow, equity, and backend profits.With the right coaching, you can quit your job within 1–2 years—not 30.Break the “DIY” Trap: Why Coaching MattersMost people try to figure it out alone and stay stuck for years.Multifamily syndications are a team sport—scale comes from partnerships, not hustle.Without a roadmap, you'll hit a ceiling fast or never start at all.Connect with Nighthawk EquityJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubConnect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the...

In this episode, we're taking you behind the scenes of how WIIRE really started. What began as a few social media connections has evolved into a powerful and growing community for women in real estate. Our very first meetup drew 30 to 40 attendees—far beyond what we expected—and that moment showed us there was something special here. We never set out to build a business, but by listening to our members and staying true to our values of authenticity and connection, WIIRE grew organically.We discuss how we transitioned from hosting free meetups to organizing retreats (our first one sold out before we even knew what we were doing!) and ultimately developed a more structured, sustainable business model. Along the way, we embraced risk-taking, learned from our early missteps, and built credibility through partnerships and experience. We also share why having a supportive team has been a game changer, and how we're now leaning into online business systems and automation. This episode is all about the messy, exciting evolution of WIIRE—and a glimpse into what's coming next.  Resources:Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet your name on the list for when doors open to The WIIRE CommunityLeave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

In this episode, Joe McDiffitt, Managing Director of Property Management at Coastal Ridge Real Estate, joins MHN's Denile Doyle to share lessons from overseeing a diverse portfolio that includes student housing and traditional multifamily properties. Operators need to have a strong framework, understand their residents and be responsive when things change, shares McDiffitt. Managing multiple property types shouldn't be siloed. Deploying resources where needed and being attentive to the leasing cycle of each property type can prevent teams from being overwhelmed and unprepared. And despite key differences in these two markets, McDiffitt says they can still inform each other. Here are a few highlights from this episode:• Key operational differences between student housing and traditional multifamily (4:40)• How Coastal Ridge applies data from its multifamily portfolio, such as renewal conversion ratios, to improve student housing performance (8:19)• Aligning the preleasing cycle with on-site teams to ensure smooth execution during peak periods (10:05)• Where it makes sense to share resources across property types to improve efficiency (13:29)• How relationships, mentorship and discipline can help you succeed in the industry (17:54)

John Griggs shares his journey from practicing law to building Presidium, a company that has developed and managed over 20,000 apartment units.

John comments on 1) Multifamily values have dropped 20-40%, presenting buying opportunities below replacement costs, 2) Equity investors are demanding higher returns, making underwriting more challenging, and 3) Development projects face hurdles like local politics, affordability requirements, and rising costs.

Michael Blank is a real estate investor, author, speaker, and CEO of Nighthawk Equity. He's one of the leading authorities on apartment investing and financial freedom through multifamily real estate. With over $300 million in assets under management and author of Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing, Michael helps investors and aspiring entrepreneurs escape the W-2 grind by acquiring multifamily properties and building sustainable income streams.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Michael transitioned from tech to restaurants to real estate after early business setbacks during the 2000 and 2008 market crashes. Multifamily real estate offers superior risk-adjusted returns due to forced appreciation and operational control compared to single-family homes. Market sentiment is often wrong—investors must look past fear-based headlines and focus on long-term fundamentals. Today's market offers lower leverage, better pricing, and a strong long-term demand outlook for multifamily housing. Education and building sophistication as an investor is critical to identifying real opportunities, especially in volatile markets.     Topics Michael's Journey into Multifamily Started in corporate software; was part of a major IPO just before the 2000 tech bubble crash. Lost significant capital in restaurant franchises during the 2008 recession. Began flipping houses before discovering multifamily through a 12-unit deal in DC that eventually sparked his passion for apartments. Built Nighthawk Equity and an education platform to help others achieve financial freedom through apartment investing. Understanding Risk-Adjusted Returns Multifamily offers superior downside protection compared to many other asset classes. Operational risk (property management) can be mitigated by using professional managers. Market risk can be managed by focusing on NOI-driven valuation rather than relying on market appreciation like single-family. Investors must evaluate underwriting assumptions—rent growth, vacancy, CapEx reserves, and debt terms—to fully assess risk. Why Multifamily is Attractively Priced Today Current deals are 30% below 2021 peak prices. Leverage is lower and more conservative, reducing financial risk. Interest rates are flat or declining, improving the outlook for new acquisitions. Long-term demand remains strong due to the lack of new affordable housing supply. Investor Sentiment and Sophistication Market sentiment swings often don't reflect true investment fundamentals. Sophisticated investors like institutions are returning to the market now while many retail investors remain fearful. Successful investing requires becoming a student of the market and evaluating data beyond media headlines. Raising Capital in Today's Market Focuses heavily on education to help investors understand why now may be a great buying window. Transparency, data-driven insights, and regular communication are key to re-engaging cautious investors. Building long-term relationships and trust remains critical to capital raising success.    

In this power-packed episode, Matty A. sits down with Mark Shuler, founder of Shuler Architecture and SGRE Investments, to break down the current state and future of the multifamily real estate market.
