Apartment construction activity is shrinking, despite a recent housing report showing increased multifamily starts. After 2+ years of stagnant rent growth in the wake of a once-in-a-generation surge in apartment building, the multifamily market is on the edge of a shift towards a demand-driven market. Slower-moving investors are waiting for interest rate cuts to jump into the market, but in many midwestern markets (like Indianapolis) that have been the best-performing in recent years, forward-looking investors are investing with confidence.Link to sources discussed in this episode:CNBC: “When ‘invest like the 1%' fails: How Yieldstreet's real estate bets left customers with massive losses” - https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/18/yieldstreet-real-estate-bets-customer-losses.htmlReuters: “US housing starts tick higher in July, led by apartment construction” - https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-housing-starts-tick-higher-july-led-by-apartment-construction-2025-08-19/RealPage: “Seven Markets with Deep Supply Drops in the Next Year” - https://www.realpage.com/analytics/supply-volumes-decline-markets/Newmark: “2Q25 U.S. Multifamily Capital Markets Report” - https://www.nmrk.com/insights/market-report/2q-2025-united-states-multifamily-capital-markets-reportLearn more about Gray Capital's latest multifamily investment opportunity: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/invest-in-flats Download Gray Capital's latest report: ⁠https://www.graycapitalllc.com/future Sign up for our free multifamily newsletter here: ⁠https://www.graycapitalllc.com/newsletter⁠ DISCLAIMERS: This video does not constitute professional financial advice and is for educational/entertainment purposes only.

After many years of peak prices, distress is starting to appear in multifamily apartments, including newer properties. As debt maturities are looming, operators aren't able to absorb the new debt costs plus all the other increased costs of the past few years including taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses. As a result, properties are now selling at prices at significant discount to replacement costs, thereby offering a once in a decade buying opportunity. Alex Roudi, CEO and Chairman at Interwest Capital, is buying newer properties at significant discounts. His latest deal is a 2022 build in Milwaukee with an in place 9.5% cash-on-cash return.

This episode is brought to you by https://www.ElevateOS.com —the only all-in-one community operating system.You and I both know this: change never sends a calendar invite.In this week's episode, we unpack the Top 5 things shaping Multifamily right now — the moves you can't afford to ignore if you're serious about staying relevant in operations, PropTech, and leadership.First up — Wage Growth Outpacing Rent Growth for 31 straight months. Jay Parsons dropped a chart that tells a powerful story. Rent deceleration, meet moderate wage inflation. What does that mean for operators? I'll tell you.Next — "Choose Your Own Adventure" Roadshows. I had a real-world moment with a supplier partner that sparked something fresh: the future of vendor-operator engagement might just be... options.Third — buckle up. The World Economic Forum says 76% of real estate labor could be automated by 2030. Too far-fetched? I don't think so. The robots aren't coming. They're already here.Fourth — AI Mastery Requires Doing, Not Studying. A year-long course won't save you if it's already obsolete halfway through. The answer? Be a practitioner. The only way to understand this revolution is to get your hands dirty.And finally — that viral headline: "AI isn't coming for your job. It's coming for your workflows." Truth is, it's both. If AI's gunning for your process, it's gunning for your position. Time to adapt.If you're in Multifamily — operator, supplier, tech builder, leader — you need this pulse check.Let's grow together.

This episode is brought to you by https://www.ElevateOS.com —the only all-in-one community operating system.Let's shoot straight.Just because you can add a door-to-door trash service and collect a bit of rev share... doesn't mean you should.In this episode, I'm sharing my unfiltered perspective on one of the most debated amenities in Multifamily: valet trash services. No supplier names mentioned — this isn't about calling folks out. It's about calling attention to what matters.We unpack:Why labor variables make valet trash hard to manageHow inconsistent resident behavior turns into operational chaosThe hidden costs of managing vendor partners as extensions of your teamAnd the biggest truth of all: Perception is reality — especially when prospects see trash before they see the leasing office.If you're in Multifamily leadership or operations, this isn't just about trash — it's about standards, service quality, and your brand reputation.Like I always say — just because it's other income doesn't mean it's worth the income.

This episode is brought to you by https://www.ElevateOS.com —the only all-in-one community operating system.Ever notice how the simplest words carry the most weight?In today's episode of the Multifam Collective, I unpack a quote from Rudyard Kipling: "Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind." That line hit me—and it got me thinking about the two most powerful words in the world of Multifamily leadership: please and thank you.These aren't just playground pleasantries. They're foundational tools in shaping culture, creating community, and leading with authenticity.In a world driven by speed, automation, and PropTech innovation, we sometimes forget the human side of the equation. Ironically, the word please is one of the most expensive tokens in Large Language Models like OpenAI's GPT. And yet in real life, it's often the cheapest thing we forget to give.Let this be your reminder: in Multifamily, where relationships are the currency of success, manners matter more than ever.Please watch this.Thank you for being here.Like, comment, and subscribe to keep the conversation going.For more engaging content, explore our offerings at the[https://www.multifamilycollective.com](https://www.multifamilycollective.com/) and the [https://www.multifamilymedianetwork.com](https://www.multifamilymedianetwork.com/)Join us to stay informed and inspired in the multifamily industry!

But you'd be wrong.In this episode of the Multifam Collective, Mike Brewer challenges the conventional wisdom about hiring. The truth? Your most expensive hire is the one you rush.It's the one you bring on without vetting, training, or truly understanding. And nowhere is this more impactful than at the site level—where culture is carried, customer experience is delivered, and your brand either thrives or dies.Mike breaks down why logos on resumes don't equal leadership. Why good character beats big-company training. Why critical thinking, agility, and sound judgment matter more today than ever before—especially in a world where AI is automating the easy stuff.This episode is a wake-up call for multifamily leaders who want to build sustainable culture and resilient teams.

In this episode of the Property Profits Podcast, Dave Dubeau sits down with Marshall Sykes, a former Navy captain turned real estate investor, to dive into a unique and truly diversified investment approach. Marshall shares his journey from single-family rentals to multifamily syndications, oil and gas projects, and even pre-IPO company investments.

Every investor has a deal that got away. For me, one in particular still stings—not because of market timing or bad luck, but because the failure was entirely within my control.In this solo episode, I share the story of a property I pursued back in 2018–2019 that had all the makings of a “holy grail” deal... and how I whiffed on it.

If you're trying to scale your real estate business and still asking “How do I do this?”, you're already falling behind. In this episode, Dr. Benjamin Hardy, author of 10X Is Easier Than 2X and The Science of Scaling, explains why success in multifamily hinges on shifting from "how" to "who." Michael and Ben dig into why most investors get stuck on the wrong path, and how committing to a bold vision — even without knowing the entire roadmap — is the real starting point. This episode is a must-listen for six-figure earners stuck in the single-family grind, trying to leap into commercial real estate and financial freedom.Key Takeaways1. Why Your 10-Year Plan Is Holding You BackMost investors set conservative goals based on their current capacity.A 10-year retirement plan with single-family homes isn't just slow — it's likely broken.Reframe your goal: what would it take to become financially free in 12 months?When the timeframe compresses, the current strategy breaks — and that's the point.2. The "Who Not How" Principle for Real Estate ScalingMultifamily investing isn't about doing more — it's about doing different.Instead of figuring out every step, ask “Who already knows how to do this?”The right team — mentors, capital partners, deal finders — collapses the learning curve.Syndication is the ultimate “who not how” structure: it's a team sport.3. The Psychology of Commitment and BeliefYou won't pursue what you don't believe is possible.Small “micro-commitments” — like booking a strategy call or analyzing your first deal — build belief.Commit to the outcome (financial freedom), not the tactic (buying rentals).Reverse-engineering from your end goal leads to radically different decisions.4. Letting Go of the Path That Got You HereYour current strategy won't get you to your next level.If you're clinging to rentals, flips, or even a high-paying job — you're on the wrong path.Letting go feels like quitting — but it's often the gateway to real progress.Ask: “What's the opportunity cost of staying stuck?”5. Dr. Hardy's Framework from The Science of ScalingIdentify your "floor" — the level where you're currently stuck — and why it's limiting.The most successful entrepreneurs redesign their systems, teams, and mindsets to scale.Scaling isn't just a process — it's a mindset of focusing on fewer things, done better.6. Multifamily as the Ideal Vehicle for ScalingSingle-family strategies are too slow, too small, and too dependent on your time.Multifamily offers higher leverage, scalable income, and team-based execution.The joint venture nature of syndication makes scaling practical, even if you're starting out.The ability to raise money or partner with operators creates fast pathways to GP status.Connect with Dr. Benjamin HardyGet your free copy of the Science of Scaling audiobook https://scaling.com/ Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTube

On this episode of Multifamily Mastery, John Casmon interviews Zach Winner, a former attorney turned full-time real estate investor who shares how he transitioned from single-family rentals to large-scale commercial real estate. Zach breaks down his "Value Add Plus" strategy, which focuses on buying newer properties from developers and increasing NOI through underutilized revenue streams and advantageous tax incentives, rather than heavy capex renovations. He emphasizes the importance of landlord-friendly markets and reveals some of the 25 metrics his team uses to vet markets—like the presence of STEM jobs and evolving tenant laws. The conversation also touches on 1031 exchanges, a little-known 1245 exchange tactic, and the steady returns found in Midwest markets.
