Podcasts about multifamily

Multifamily deals don't pencil the way they used to. If you've been underwriting properties lately and wondering what changed, you're not alone. In this episode, Nico Salgado breaks down why multifamily deals that worked just a few years ago are falling apart today. Interest rates have jumped, lenders have tightened their standards, operating expenses have surged, and CapEx requirements are forcing investors to rethink their underwriting models. But this shift isn't necessarily bad news. In fact, it may be creating one of the best buying opportunities since the Great Financial Crisis. Nico explains how lenders are underwriting deals today, why leverage has dropped across the board, how rising expenses are impacting returns, and why serious operators are adjusting their assumptions instead of sitting on the sidelines. If you're actively analyzing deals or trying to understand where the multifamily market is headed, this episode will help you see what's really happening behind the numbers. Because deals may not pencil the way they used to… but disciplined investors know how to adapt. And those who understand the shift may be positioned to capitalize on the next cycle. Reading about deals doesn't make you an investor. Buying buildings does.

Understanding the multifamily operating expense ratio is critical for analyzing apartment building investments. Two properties may generate the same income, but their operating expenses can be dramatically different — and that difference can make or break your investment returns. In this episode of Strategy Saturday, Charles Carillo explains how the operating expense ratio in real estate works, how to calculate it, and how investors use it to evaluate multifamily deals. You'll learn what expenses are included, what costs are excluded, and why the commonly referenced 50% expense rule can be a useful benchmark when underwriting apartment buildings. This video also covers typical expense ratio ranges for Class A, Class B, and Class C multifamily properties, and explains how factors like property age, market conditions, management efficiency, and deferred maintenance can impact operating expenses. Whether you're analyzing your first rental property or evaluating a large apartment complex, understanding the expense ratio for multifamily investing can help you identify hidden risks and avoid bad deals. In this video you'll learn: • What the operating expense ratio is in multifamily real estate • How to calculate operating expense ratio step-by-step • What operating expenses are included in real estate analysis • Typical expense ratio benchmarks for Class A, B, and C properties • Common underwriting mistakes investors make when analyzing expenses • How expense ratios help investors identify potential deal risks Understanding operating expenses is one of the most important skills in multifamily underwriting, and mastering this metric will help you evaluate deals more confidently.

When foreclosures rise, smart investors start looking for deals. In this episode of The Vinney And Beau Show, Vinney (Smile) Chopra and Beau Eckstein talk about why market shifts can create powerful buying opportunities. Vinney Chopra—who came to the U.S. with just $7 and built a portfolio approaching a billion dollars—shares how many investors and students are finding quality multifamily properties at much lower prices as distress and foreclosures begin to appear. While many people hesitate during uncertain markets, experienced investors understand that cycles create opportunity. Beau Eckstein, a lending expert and business ownership coach, explains why disciplined investors focus on fundamentals rather than headlines. In this clip you'll learn: • Why foreclosures can create major entry opportunities • How investors find undervalued multifamily deals • Why down markets often produce the best investments Opportunities don't appear when markets feel comfortable—they appear when others hesitate.

There's no question the technology is powerful, but we don't think AI is going to replace operators anytime soon.We break down how we're thinking about AI in our own businesses not as a magic solution, but as a tool that can make good operators more efficient. From underwriting deals to running systems and making better decisions, AI can help, but it won't replace experience, judgment, or execution.We also talk about where the real estate market sits right now, why stable markets can create great opportunities, and why trying to skip steps in this business is usually a mistake.At the end of the day, the best deals still go to the best operator AI or not.Connect with Cole Ruud-JohnsonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/coleruudjohnsonTwitter: https://twitter.com/coleruudjohnsonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coleruudjohnsonTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coleruudjohnson

You've got a great multifamily deal lined up—but your tax returns, DTI, or “10‑property” limit kill the loan before it starts. In this episode of Chasing Financial Freedom, Ryan DeMent explains how DSCR loans work for multifamily investors, how lenders actually calculate DSCR using NOI and full PITI, what ratios they want to see, and why your credit score, down payment, and reserves still matter even when they ignore your W‑2s and tax returns. You'll also hear the key pros and cons—higher rates and prepayment penalties versus speed, scalability, and LLC vesting—so you can decide when a DSCR loan is the right tool for your next multifamily purchase and when conventional financing will serve you better.

In this episode of Real Estate Breakthrough, host Christina Sudter sits down with Sanjiv B., founder and president of LME Investments, for a raw, on-the-ground conversation about what's really happening in the LA multifamily market right now. With 40 years of experience and 35+ properties under his belt, Sanjiv shares why this moment is different from any cycle he's lived through, and why the "extend and pretend" strategy is finally breaking. You'll discover his secret sauce for thriving in a supply-constrained, heavily regulated market: conservative underwriting that stress-tests every deal, in-house property management (the "thankless job" that separates real operators from tourists), and a long-term hold strategy that insulates investors from market timing risk. He also opens up about his niche focus on veterans and Section 8 housing, how he turns regulatory chaos into opportunity, and the hard lessons learned from decades of deals, including the ones that went wrong. If you've ever wondered whether Los Angeles still makes sense for multifamily investing, or if you're looking for a window into what real value-add looks like in a complex market, this conversation is your boots-on-the-ground intelligence. Sanjiv also announces his new LA Multifamily Value Add Fund, offering passive investors a chance to deploy capital into a market that's finally ripe for entry. Whether you're an LP investor, an aspiring syndicator, or just someone who loves hearing from operators who've seen it all, this episode delivers the kind of street-level insight you won't find in any newsletter. #LAMultifamily #RealEstateInvesting #ValueAddInvesting #MultifamilyFund #MarketCycle #PropertyManagement #PassiveInvesting

In this solo episode, Axel reflects on the 10-year anniversary of his very first real estate deal, a 3-unit property he found on Craigslist back in March 2016 and extracts four powerful lessons from that experience. While the deal didn't go as planned, the education it delivered shaped every successful investment that followed.Axel also walks through the specific challenges that deal presented: private utilities, financing complications, the realities of self-managing as a first-time investor, and the emotional difficulty of embracing uncertainty. He frames each setback as a teachable moment that applies whether you're buying your first duplex or scaling to 100+ units.This episode is designed to help both new and experienced investors think more strategically about exit liquidity, debt structure, professional leverage, and the mindset required to grow through uncertainty.Join us as we dive into:Why Axel's first deal — a 3-unit FSBO found on Craigslist — didn't go as plannedThe hidden liquidity trap of private utilities (dug wells, undersized septics) and how they shrink your buyer poolWhy you must understand your takeout financing before you close — especially with private or bridge debtThe real cost of self-managing too early and why hiring a property manager on deal one can actually accelerate your learningHow to embrace learning on the fly without letting perfectionism delay your first (or next big) moveWhy even a "bad" first deal can be the foundation for everything that followsAre you looking to invest in real estate, but don't want to deal with the hassle of finding great deals, signing on debt, and managing tenants?

In Episode 198 of the Neighborhood Ventures podcast, Kiss My Assets, CEO Jamison Manwaring sits down with Tyler Bruggman of ABI Multifamily, part of one of the most active brokerage teams in Arizona. They discuss a recent Queen Creek apartment deal that drew heavy investor interest, why buyers are shifting toward newer vintage properties, and how supply, absorption, and interest rates are shaping the Phoenix multifamily market in 2026. Tyler also shares what ABI is seeing from buyers and sellers across the Valley—and why Phoenix continues to stand out as one of the strongest long-term multifamily investment markets in the country.

Distress has emerged in the multifamily space. Lenders are taking projects back from sponsors and selling them for the debt or even taking losses in many cases. As a result, some great deals are being made by sponsors to capitalize on these situations and acquire solid workforce properties at a discount. David Lilley, Founder & CEO of Reap Capital, is acquiring 80's vintage properties in Dallas and San Antonio at steep discounts. He's also starting to consider expanding into Florida and Arizona. Reap capital is a vertically integrated multifamily operator based in Dallas.

In this Q&A session, Rob Beardsley (Founder & CEO of LSCRE) answers some of the toughest questions investors are asking about the multifamily market right now.Topics include whether the U.S. economy is actually in a recession, where we are in the real estate cycle, the biggest risks facing multifamily today, and how sponsors protect investor capital in volatile interest-rate environments.Rob also shares lessons from a deal that was terminated due to rising rates, explains the underwriting assumptions that matter most in multifamily investing, and discusses why relationships and trust are the most valuable assets in commercial real estate.If you're an investor trying to understand the current market cycle, risk management, and how professional sponsors approach deals, this video provides valuable insight.Topics covered:Are we actually in a recession?Where we are in the real estate and interest rate cyclesThe biggest risk in today's multifamily marketHow sponsors protect investor capitalRed flags that disqualify a dealThe most important numbers in underwritingWhy relationships compound the fastest in real estateHow new sponsors raise capital without a track recordIf you'd like to learn more about investing alongside LSCRE, connect with our team and join our investor community.

Send a textThe multifamily market has shifted significantly over the past two years — but deals are still getting done. The question is: who is actually buying, and how are they getting deals across the finish line?In this episode, Matt Wideman, Managing Director at Berkadia, shares what he's seeing from the front lines of multifamily transactions. We discuss who is actively acquiring assets today, how pricing and cap rate expectations have reset, and what separates buyers who are winning deals from those who aren't.Matt also pulls back the curtain on what's happening behind the scenes from listing to closing, how financing and capital stacks have evolved, and what investors should be paying attention to as the market continues to adjust.

In this episode of Kiss My Assets, Jamison Manwaring sits down with Tyler Bruggman from ABI Multifamily—one of the most active brokerage teams in Arizona—to break down what's really happening in the Phoenix apartment market. They discuss the recent Queen Creek deal that drew dozens of offers, why investors are shifting toward newer vintage properties, and how supply, absorption, and interest rates are shaping buying decisions in 2026. Tyler also shares what ABI is seeing from buyers and sellers across the Valley and why Phoenix continues to rank as one of the top multifamily investment markets in the country.      

On today's podcast, we're joined again by James Hwang, co-founder of Stellar Housing Solutions in New Jersey, where he and his partners operate 20+ midterm rentals through a mix of ownership, co-hosting, and arbitrage. James breaks down how he's expanded his reach far beyond his own units by building a local MTR network—a WhatsApp group of New Jersey operators who share leads, referrals, and vendors. That collaboration acts like a “third OTA,” keeping units booked even in slow seasons and opening doors to new co-hosting and arbitrage deals. We dig into arbitrage in today's market—where it still works, where it doesn't, and how James structures profitable deals. He targets solid but slightly less “premium” areas near hot markets, negotiates creatively around rent vs. deposits, and positions himself as the stress-free solution for landlords. James also walks us through his landlord conversation playbook: speaking as a fellow owner, addressing pain points like non-payment and property damage, and demonstrating how midterm rentals can mean early, automated rent and better-maintained units. That credibility often leads to repeat opportunities and more doors. If you're looking to scale midterm rentals, tap into community instead of competing, or revive arbitrage with smart analysis and systems, this episode with James is a masterclass in doing MTRs the right way.     Resources: Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenant Get in touch with Envy Investment Group Connect with James on Instagram Get the deets on Stellar Housing Solutions Find out more about MTR Office Hours Listen to Episode 193 Make sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community  Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Leave us a review on Spotify Join our private Facebook Community Connect with us on Instagram

In this episode of The Willpower Podcast, host Will Holdren sits down with real estate investor and technologist Neal Bawa, widely known in the industry as the “Mad Scientist of Multifamily.”Neal is the founder and CEO of Grocapitus Investments, a data-driven real estate investment firm with a portfolio spanning thousands of units and hundreds of millions of dollars in assets across the United States. Before entering real estate, Neal built his career in technology and data science — a background that now fuels his analytical approach to investing and market selection. In this conversation, Neal shares how data analytics can be used to identify high-growth markets, minimize risk, and scale multifamily portfolios more predictably. We also dive into the future of housing, the rise of build-to-rent communities, and why relying on data instead of intuition can dramatically improve investment outcomes.Whether you're an experienced investor or just getting started in real estate, this episode breaks down the frameworks Neal uses to evaluate markets, structure deals, and build long-term wealth.

Ben shares his journey from subprime mortgages to Deutsche Bank portfolio management and eventually into renewable infrastructure, where he identified a major financing gap in EV charging for commercial properties. He explains why EV charging should be viewed primarily as an amenity rather than a direct NOI driver and how operators can use it to attract higher-income renters, increase rents, and reduce turnover. Ben breaks down EV adoption trends, noting that while U.S. penetration still trails global markets, adoption continues to rise—especially with more affordable EV models and a wave of used Teslas entering the market. For multifamily owners, the key isn't just installation, but proper underwriting based on EV registration data, demographic trends, and projected utilization. Three V Infrastructure offers a no-upfront-cost model where they fund, install, own, and manage the chargers, taking utilization risk and only profit-sharing after recouping their capital and a threshold return.

How do you raise over $40 million in capital and participate in more than $250 million in multifamily acquisitions while building a reputation for consistency, integrity, and results? In this episode, investor and syndicator Aaron Katz shares the real story behind his decade-plus journey in multifamily—from entering the business in 2011 and building his portfolio one relationship and one deal at a time, to navigating market cycles and positioning for the next wave of opportunity in DFW. Aaron discusses why he approaches multifamily as a “lifetime business,” how disciplined underwriting and the right partnerships helped him weather recent market headwinds, and why he believes today's environment resembles the early days of the last real estate cycle. For investors and entrepreneurs seeking practical insight into raising capital, building investor communities, and executing deals that stand the test of time, this episode delivers lessons you can apply immediately.5 Key Takeaways from the EpisodeMultifamily is a Long-Term Business Aaron entered the industry with the mindset that apartments would be his business for decades, focusing on steady growth, wealth creation, and lifestyle flexibility rather than rapid deal volume. Success is Built One Relationship at a Time His capital raising success—over $40M—was built through thousands of conversations, consistent communication, and a strong investor community developed over many years. Operations Matter More Than Ever Aaron emphasizes that being an operator first—not just a capital raiser—is critical, especially in markets where margins are tighter and execution of the business plan determines success. Discipline and Patience Protect Investors By underwriting conservatively and walking away from deals that didn't meet his criteria—even when brokers were willing to award them—Aaron preserved investor capital and positioned himself for better opportunities. Market Cycles Create Opportunity Aaron believes the current multifamily environment resembles the early stages of the post-recession cycle when he started in 2011, suggesting the coming years could present significant buying opportunities for disciplined investors. About Tim MaiTim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.He has helped many real estate investors and coaches become millionaires.

This episode details how we recently made the decision to purchase a full Bitcoin, not because we're abandoning the strategy that built our foundation, but because we've continued to evolve our understanding of diversification. After some recent conversations with a few mentors we respect, it pushed us to think deeper about how we position our portfolio for the long term. Real estate will always remain our core focus. Buying multifamily properties, creating cash flow, and building equity, but we also believe in allocating a small portion of capital to assets that can hedge against broader macroeconomic risks.   One of the reasons Bitcoin stands out is its decentralized nature and fixed supply. Unlike traditional currencies that can be printed and controlled by central banks, Bitcoin operates on a network that no single entity controls. In a world where the money supply continues to expand and inflation erodes purchasing power, we view Bitcoin as a potential hedge against the long-term debasement of the dollar.   That said, we're not replacing real estate with Bitcoin. Multifamily and rental properties will continue to be the backbone of our portfolio because of the cash flow, tax advantages, and value creation opportunities they provide. Bitcoin simply represents a small, strategic allocation within a broader wealth-building strategy - one that allows us to stay heavily invested in real estate while also diversifying into assets that may benefit from long-term economic shifts. We figured this episode would give some insight into our thought process and recent decision making  Book your call with Neo Home Loanshttps://www.neoentrepreneurhomeloans.com/wealthjuice/ Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES

In this episode, real estate data expert and multifamily investor Neal Bawa returns for the annual 2026 housing market forecast. Neal breaks down the performance of single-family and multifamily asset classes over the past several years, explaining why rents were essentially flat in 2025 and how the ICE workforce crackdown pushed a wave of unfinished inventory into 2026. He outlines why multifamily prices have hit a bottom — down 20–30% from their 2022 peak — and why that represents a buying opportunity, while single-family prices have remained surprisingly resilient due to the mortgage lock-in effect. Neal also shares his prediction of a rental supply shortage in 2027–2028 that should drive rent growth and occupancy higher, offers frank advice to syndication investors on holding through the downturn, and explains why small interest rate cuts can have an outsized impact on equity. He also introduces AI as a major wildcard that could reshape housing demand beyond 2030. Tune in for data-driven insights and practical takeaways for investors at every level.

Multifamily investing doesn't fail because of bad deals. It fails because of bad property management. Today on the Heartland Multifamily Show, we break down why poor management is the fastest way to destroy profitable real estate investments. Even if you hire a property manager, taking a hands-on, owner-operator approach is critical to protecting your capital. In this episode, I explain why management is often overlooked, where investors get it wrong, and why strong property management should always come before growth, scale, or new acquisitions.

Multifamily investing isn't about hype—it's about fundamentals like real estate investment strategies and conservative investing. In this episode, we break down how technology in real estate and AI impact on real estate jobs are driving commoditization in real estate, where speed commoditizes everything from careers to brokerage commissions. Discover why hard assets investing like apartment investing, farmland investing, and gold and silver investing offers a durable wealth building strategy against value compression. We explore real estate market trends 2026, including avoiding commoditization in investing and shifting to passive real estate investing in multifamily apartments for sale or rental property investment.

Mike Strodtman, owner of Blue Skies Equity, is a seasoned investor proving that even in a challenging market, strategic focus and meticulous operations lead to success. From his base in Bemidji, Minnesota, Mike discusses how he navigates the tight multifamily market of 2024-2026, still managing to close deals by leveraging deep local market knowledge and direct owner engagement. He shares his two-pronged investment approach: mastering his local Minnesota market where he knows most owners, and when expanding out of state (like in Colorado Springs), partnering exclusively with sponsors who have strong local market knowledge, existing real estate, and crucial in-house property management capabilities. Mike reveals why his own in-house property management company is a non-negotiable for controlling expenses and tenant relations, offering a candid look at the challenges of external management and the power of having a dedicated team. Don't miss Mike's insights on asset management, market navigation, and the critical role of self-management in scaling your real estate portfolio.

Most Colorado investors have never seriously considered industrial real estate. At first, it feels like a different world — big buildings, commercial tenants, unfamiliar terminology. But once you understand how the asset class actually works, it starts to look a lot like the multifamily investing you already know, just with fewer headaches. To start, industrial real estate covers a wide range. On one end you have a 2,000 square foot bay rented to an HVAC company. On the other end, million square foot distribution centers broken into 20,000-50,000 square foot bays. For individual investors, though, the sweet spot is the middle — small-bay multi-tenant buildings in the $1-4 million range where spaces run 1,500 to 5,000 square feet. These attract the same kinds of small businesses that keep renewing: trade contractors, lumber companies, light manufacturers. Tenants that need space and don’t want to move. And in a triple net lease, those tenants pay your taxes, your insurance, and your maintenance costs. You collect the check. That’s where Drew Williams comes in. Drew is an industrial and retail broker at North Peak Commercial Brokers in Denver. Over the last four years he’s focused on exactly this segment of the market — multi-tenant industrial along the Front Range — and in this episode he walks through the asset class from the ground up. Deal types, tenant profiles, how to read a cap rate, what flex industrial actually means, and how to think about risk when you’re underwriting a business instead of a household. From there, the conversation turns to where the 2026 Denver industrial real estate market stands right now. Prices have pulled back. The ask-to-close gap has averaged 15% over the last 12 months. Meanwhile, rents have held flat at $12-13 per square foot triple net while expenses have climbed. On top of that, lenders now want 35-40% down and a 1.3 DSCR. It sounds like a tough market — and in some ways it is. Still, Drew explains why these conditions are also creating real opportunities for buyers who know how to find them. In This Episode We Cover: What industrial real estate actually is — deal types, tenant profiles, and the difference between small bay, flex, and single tenant The three buyer profiles — passive investor, owner-user, and syndication group — with real Denver deal examples How triple net leases work and why tenants pay taxes, insurance, and maintenance Where the 2026 Denver industrial real estate market stands — cap rates, rents, price per square foot, and the 15% ask-to-close gap The value-add playbook — converting gross leases to triple net and recovering expenses landlords have been absorbing for years The three physical features that make a Denver industrial building significantly easier to lease and sell The zoning trap that turns a promising purchase into an expensive mistake If industrial real estate has ever been on your radar but felt too unfamiliar to pursue, this episode is the place to start — and if you’re already looking at the 2026 Denver industrial real estate market, Drew gives you the ground-level data to move with confidence.

In this solo episode, Michael Blank shares the exact moment he pivoted from flipping houses and single-family rentals into multifamily investing—and why it became the single best financial decision of his life. He breaks down the math, the scalability, the risk profile, and the long-term wealth-building power of apartment syndications compared to other strategies like flips, short-term rentals, and pad splits. If you're wondering how to truly scale real estate without burning out, this episode lays it out step by step.Key Takeaways Single-family investing doesn't scale efficiently — replacing income requires dozens of properties and constant effort.Multifamily syndications create multiple profit centers: acquisition fees, asset management fees, cash flow, and equity at sale.You get paid when you buy in multifamily—something no other strategy offers at scale.Professional property management makes multifamily more passive, allowing faster growth with less day-to-day involvement.Risk is reduced through diversification — 100 tenants are safer than one.Long-term housing shortages and declining new construction permits support strong multifamily fundamentals.Connect 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 Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael BlankFor full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session513/

The fastest way to stall your apartment investing career is listening to the wrong people.There's a difference between learning from operators and taking advice from peers who've never built what you're trying to build. Most investors don't fail because they lack intelligence. They fail because they follow the wrong models.If you're serious about building this the right way, join the Tribe of Titans multifamily investing community: www.thetribeoftitans.comIn this conversation, we unpack what it really looks like to transition from a technical W-2 career into multifamily ownership — without chasing hype markets, without guessing, and without quitting prematurely. This is about deliberate moves, strategic leverage, and building systems that remove friction from scale.Jason didn't start in a high-growth market. He didn't raise institutional capital on day one. He didn't abandon his job recklessly. He built methodically — and engineered his business the same way he engineered products in his former career.What You'll Learn• Why slow personal savings keeps most investors small • The real constraint behind scaling beyond single-family • How to operate in a flat-growth market without getting crushed • Why systems thinking beats hustle when underwriting deals • The decision filter that separates operators from dabblersYou'll also hear how leveraging mentorship, partnership dynamics, and disciplined market selection allowed him to build a portfolio while still working — and transition out on his own terms.This isn't theory. It's what happens when someone applies engineering discipline to multifamily investing — and refuses to take advice from people who haven't built real scale.Inside the Tribe of Titans, these are the types of conversations that continue — real operators, real deals, real execution.

In this Q&A episode, Axel answers two timely listener questions that are becoming increasingly relevant for multifamily investors in 2026: when it actually makes sense to bring property management in-house and how artificial intelligence is changing where investors can (and can't) maintain a competitive edge.On the operations side, Axel breaks down the realities of vertical integration, why scale and local presence matter, the foundational hires you should prioritize, and the systems required to avoid turning in-house management into a costly distraction.On the technology side, he explains how AI is rapidly commoditizing underwriting, research, and analysis. As access to data and decision tools becomes universal, investors will need to shift their focus toward execution, operational excellence, and relationship-driven deal flow.This episode is designed to help operators think strategically about where to invest their time, where their real edge will come from, and how to build a business that stays competitive as technology accelerates.Join us as we dive into:When it actually makes sense to bring property management in-houseWhy scale (and local presence) matter before vertical integrationThe foundational hires to prioritize when building an internal teamThe operational infrastructure and software needed to scale successfullyWhy most investors underestimate the complexity of self-managementHow AI is already commoditizing underwriting and researchWhat types of work AI will automate in the near futureWhere your competitive advantage will come from going forwardWhy operational execution and relationships will matter more than everNH Multifamily Fund III Details:Link to the recording for the NH Multifamily Fund IIIAccess the NH Multifamily Fund III deal roomConnect with Axel:Follow him on InstagramConnect with him on LinkedinSubscribe to our YouTube channelLearn more about Aligned Real Estate PartnersAre you looking to invest in real estate, but don't want to deal with the hassle of finding great deals, signing on debt, and managing tenants?

Single-family vs. multifamily rental properties—which gets you to financial freedom faster? A rookie real estate investor is wondering what he should do for his first rental property. Multifamily rentals can help you scale faster and have more cash flow, but single-family rentals mean fewer tenants (and fewer headaches) with less management. Dave and Henry have invested in both and have a clear answer for which is the winner. We're back answering your questions from the BiggerPockets Forums. First, single-family vs. multifamily—if you're starting in real estate right now, there's one clear choice. Next, a young landlord just inherited a tenant who's paying 50% below-market rent. Should he raise the rent and risk losing a 12-year tenant, or follow a much more “reasonable” strategy to get them to stay and pay a fairer price? BRRRRing vs. house-flipping: let's say you have $100,000 ready to invest, which option gives you a higher return? BRRRRing (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) means you'll have a long-term rental after the rehab, but is a flip worth it for the instant payout? And finally, we do the thing you never expected BiggerPockets to do…we tell someone not to house hack (but here's why). In This Episode We Cover Single-family vs. multifamily rentals, and which Dave and Henry would almost always prefer  BRRRRing vs. flipping houses: which is lower risk in today's housing market? Who should not house hack, and what you should do instead with your money Raising rents on inherited tenants: the “stair-step” strategy that Henry uses  And So Much More!
