In this episode, we sit down for a year-end audit of our real estate portfolios and have an honest conversation about what's working, what's creating stress, and where we need to make changes. We talk about why prioritizing our bookkeeping and truly understanding our numbers is essential to making confident decisions, and how identifying our most stressful properties often reveals deeper issues tied to systems, tenant management, or profitability. By breaking things down property by property, we're able to evaluate not just financial returns, but also the return on our time and energy.We also share personal experiences around tenant screening, managing properties more efficiently, and experimenting with different management strategies to find what best supports our goals and lifestyles. Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the importance of regularly reassessing our portfolios, setting clear investment goals for the future, and leaning into community for support, perspective, and shared strategies. This episode is a reminder that successful real estate investing isn't just about growth—it's about building a portfolio that feels aligned, sustainable, and empowering.  Resources:Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupGrab your free Property Management ChecklistDownload our free SOP TemplateMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

Jordan Shapiro, Sr. and Daryl Fairweather discuss the homebuilders. Daryl thinks a recovery is happening, though 2026 is only expected to go by 3%. She also expects affordability to improve through the next few years. Jordan is concerned about the lack of new housing starts in areas that are creating jobs, noting that one housing start to two jobs is considered healthy. Multifamily starts are making up two-thirds of starts, abnormal by historical trends, he notes.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Everybody thinks they need money, partners, a track record, or some perfect résumé before they can start in multifamily. That's the lie. The truth? You need credibility — and credibility can be BUILT from nothing. In this episode, I break down exactly how to go from "nobody knows me" to "brokers take me seriously." No fluff. No theory. Just the real steps I used to become a lead GP with zero money, zero experience, and zero connections. We get into: • The mindset shift every beginner must make • How to position yourself like a professional even if you're brand new • The exact tools you need: buy box, one-pager, email scripts, team setup • Why brokers don't care about your money as much as they care about your clarity • How to leverage mentors or experienced operators • Why showing up consistently matters more than your background • How to talk to brokers so they listen • How to avoid the rookie mistakes that kill your credibility You don't need a million dollars. You don't need a 20-unit portfolio. You don't need a fancy title. You need direction, systems, and execution — and that's what this episode gives you. If you've been sitting on the sidelines thinking, "Who am I to reach out to brokers? Who am I to chase deals?" this episode will change the way you see yourself. This is how you build multifamily credibility when you have nothing.

In this episode of the Kiss My Assets Podcast, Kyle Macdonald and Neighborhood Ventures CEO Jamison Manwaring break down one of the most surprising storylines in U.S. real estate: the historic 2025 multifamily absorption boom that stunned analysts nationwide. We unpack why over 725,000 units were absorbed in just two quarters—surpassing all of 2024—and what's driving renters away from homeownership and into newly built apartments across the country. Jamison also dives into how Phoenix compares to challenged markets like Austin, why institutional forecasters missed the mark, and why long-term investors should care about the "lock-in effect" reshaping housing supply. The episode then shifts to projected rent growth in 2026, why many operators are preparing for a rebound, and what savvy investors should watch for as the national supply pipeline normalizes. Finally, Kyle and Jamison discuss one of Arizona's most eye-opening recent transactions: Next Wave Investors acquiring The Avi in Tempe for $40M—a 40% discount from its 2022 peak price. They break down how distressed deals are emerging, why 2022 buyers are struggling, and how Neighborhood Ventures is navigating this moment with disciplined acquisitions. A data-backed, candid conversation for anyone tracking the future of multifamily investing.

David Moore joins Brandon Sedloff on The Distribution for a candid conversation about his unconventional path into real estate, the early grind of building Knightvest, and how his team has scaled into one of the country's most active multifamily owner operators. He reflects on growing up in an entrepreneurial household, navigating early career uncertainty, and stumbling into real estate through necessity rather than design. David walks through the chaotic early days of buying properties at auction, running them by hand, and slowly transforming that experience into a vertically integrated, disciplined, and highly scaled platform. He also shares his perspective on today's operating environment, how he thinks about acquisitions, and what it takes to sustain performance across cycles. They discuss: • The influence of David's upbringing and the entrepreneurial parallels he saw in his father's work • Knightvest's origin story, including buying its first apartments at a tax auction and learning the business on-site • How the firm evolved from survival mode to institutional partnerships and large-scale operations • The decision to adopt a fund model and what it means for long-term continuity • Knightvest's renovation philosophy, vertical integration, and localized acquisition strategy • Current portfolio trends, market pressures, and how the team is preparing for future opportunities Links: Knightvest Capital - https://knightvestcapital.com/ David on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-moore-03005a39/ Brandon on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:01:53) - David's background and career (00:05:35) - Transition to real estate and founding Knightvest (00:09:22) - Early struggles and first investments (00:18:31) - Scaling the business and institutional partnerships (00:22:31) - Current state of Knightvest (00:26:43) - Challenges in fundraising (00:30:40) - Scaling (00:32:34) - Renovation philosophies (00:36:36) - Vertical integration pros and cons (00:41:15) - Market trends and portfolio insights (00:44:54) - Future strategies and acquisitions (00:48:29) - Choosing the right investment partner (00:52:56) - Conclusion and contact information

From all of us at the Multifamily Collective and the Multifamily Media Network — Happy Thanksgiving.

We just got back from a 3-week road trip through Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, and New Mexico — and after 100+ miles of hiking and 21,000 feet of elevation, I've returned energized and ready to look ahead.This episode is short but critical.I'm inviting you to think about your 2026 goals now — not in January.Most people wait until the first of the year to set resolutions. But by then, you're influenced by emotions, peer pressure, and the momentum of the moment. Instead, I suggest you use the stillness of December to reflect on 2025. Be honest. Celebrate what worked. Get honest about what didn't.Then begin setting intentional goals using the framework of heart, soul, body, and mind.If you get them written by November 30th, you can start working them in December. That gives you a 30-day head start — and it's a massive advantage over waiting for January motivation to kick in.Let's lead ourselves well, so we can lead others better.► Like what you're hearing?

No prep, no notes, just unfiltered answers.Join us as Pat tackles quick-hit questions about multifamily operations, market opportunities, investor strategy, and the myths he wishes would finally disappear.

While most operators chase the Sunbelt states, one overlooked market type is making small- and mid-sized multifamily investors wealthier. It's got near-zero vacancy, with strong employment anchors, and durable cash flow thanks to consistent demand. They're not big cities; instead, they're what today's guest calls "micropolitan" areas—top multifamily markets even the most experienced investors overlook. While making just $35,000 per year, Cory Jacobson made the best move a small investor can make—he bought a house, rented out the rooms, and lived for free. On his second deal, he managed a light renovation, walking away with a six-figure profit—three times his salary. That was it. For Cory, it was time to go all in. Now, he's putting his money into medium-sized multifamily investments (5-30 units) in "untapped" micropolitan markets and sharing his lessons on the Wealth Juice podcast. We talk about the perfect partnerships that have helped him scale at light speed, the day the "worst thing that could have happened" came true, and the actual markets he's currently investing in.   Insights from today's episode: Why "micropolitan" multifamily markets beat top investing areas like the Sunbelt  The single-best first investment a real estate investor should make (even on low income) Real estate partnership splits and how to find a partner who offsets your weaknesses  Never sell?

What does it take to run a vertically integrated multifamily operation—and do it well? This week, we're joined by Michael Root, Co-Founder and Strategic Leader of Root Property Group, who breaks down the systems, strategies, and lessons behind managing nearly 1,000 doors in Chicago's north side.From understanding why “selling is a decision made before closing” to avoiding the trap of over-improving a property, Michael shares real, practical insights for investors who want to build long-term wealth the right way.Key Takeaways:3:07 – Michael's Core Roles: His three main hats are underwriting deals, asset management (executing strategies), and running the renovation crew.5:44 – Niche Strategy: Focusing on 10-unit, scattered-site buildings in core neighborhoods allows for hyper-accurate local data and pricing.10:26 – Tech for Efficiency: Software like ShowMojo automates scheduling and showings, eliminating phone tag and preventing lead loss.12:41 – Data-Driven Diligence: Use your own portfolio's data to accurately benchmark expenses against the seller's claims before touring the property.15:16 – Avoid Over-Improving: The worst mistake is over-investing in renovations, causing the property value to exceed what the local market can support ("meeting the market").17:02 – Legacy Transition: Buying the existing family business structure secured better lending credit and leverage for future acquisitions.19:55 – When to Sell: Consider selling if you've maximized value, plan no further capital investment, and wouldn't buy the asset back at the current market price.21:47 – Hindsight: Regrets include not networking more when younger and passing up "good deals" out of fear.Michael speaks Corwyn's "real estate dialect," diving deep into the world of multifamily acquisitions and the strategic vision needed to lead a multi-million dollar firm.Connect with Michael:Contact Number: 773 -904-1 383Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-root-6242a6a/Website: https://www.rootrealty.com//Connect with Corwyn:Contact Number: 843-619-3005Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/exitstrategiesradioshow/⁠FB Page:⁠ https://www.facebook.com/exitstrategiessc/⁠Youtube:⁠ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxoSuynJd5c4qQ_eDXLJaZA⁠Website:⁠ https://www.exitstrategiesradioshow.com⁠Linkedin:⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/cmelette/⁠Shoutout to our Sponsor: Mellifund Capital, LLCNeed funding for your next real estate flip or build?

Construction starts jumped 21% in October — but not because of housing. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down the surge in billion-dollar megaprojects driving the growth, from data centers and manufacturing plants to massive LNG and infrastructure builds. While commercial and nonbuilding projects climbed sharply, multifamily construction plunged nearly 39%. Kathy explains what's behind the divergence, how rising inventory and shifting demand are reshaping the landscape, and what real estate investors should watch as these projects ripple through local housing markets.
