Podcasts about multifamily

AI is bringing 6,000 jobs to a small Texan town, and home prices are seeing a sizable jump…but what happens once the job is done? Is this just a mini housing bubble waiting to happen, or is buying near an AI boomtown actually worth the risk? These scenarios may begin popping up more and more—what happens when it's in your neck of the woods? We're back with more headlines on what's affecting the housing market. AI-induced housing bubbles could be coming in hot as small, overlooked areas of the U.S. turn to boomtowns with more jobs and more housing demand (at least temporarily). If you are going to buy in or around one of these cities, this is what to buy so you don't get burnt once the construction workers leave. Fresh distress hits real estate as the “maturity wall” grows even taller. Multifamily delinquencies are up 600% from just a few years ago, and office space is struggling even with so many return-to-office announcements over the past two years. And it's not just commercial real estate. Flippers are stuck with listings getting stale, with some 2/3 of house flippers seeing longer days on market. How do Henry and James, our house flipping experts, avoid holding a hefty hard money loan while waiting for a property to sell? In This Episode We Cover New AI boomtowns forming in small investing markets (and whether you should buy) Why big properties, even though distressed, may not all fall to foreclosure any time soon What to buy if you're investing near a newly approved data center Why not buying right now could be a huge mistake (even as investors struggle) The one thing James asks from his lender to save him serious cash when a property won't sell And So Much More!

Axel sits down with Matt Lefebvre, founder of Downtown Realty NH, active multifamily investor, and one of the most well-connected brokers operating in New Hampshire — for a wide-ranging conversation that spans his origin story, the realities of investing in tertiary markets, the current state of the New Hampshire multifamily market, and the value of local networking organizations for new and growing investors.This episode is essential listening for any investor or broker who wants an honest, on-the-ground picture of what operating in tertiary markets actually looks like, how to navigate the broker-investor identity as your business grows, and what the New Hampshire multifamily market looks like heading into the second half of 2026.Join us as we dive into:How Matt separates his investing and brokering activities by owning exclusively in one hyper-specific market (Claremont, NH) while brokering deals across the state — and why that clarity makes his client relationships cleaner.Why Claremont, NH — a 13,000-person city 30 minutes from the nearest major interstate — became Matt's target market: rents only 15% below Manchester, prices roughly half, and virtually no competition from other investors at the time.The first deal: a 40-unit downtown brick building with six retail spaces — and how that acquisition set the template for growing to 100 units in one market.The real cons of tertiary market investing: a 115% property tax increase over four years, limited vendor options, higher vacancy than statewide averages suggest, and the unpredictability of small-town code enforcement and building officials.Why fire code has become the single biggest financial risk for multifamily investors in older buildings — and how one Claremont property was required to install a sprinkler system costing roughly one-sixth of the purchase price.The financing reality of small-market investing in New England: how Matt uses Pat Brady at Brady Capital Advisors to navigate a six-bank county, and why New England is significantly better banked than markets like Florida.The current New Hampshire multifamily market: cap rates flattening or expanding slightly, Manchester's new property tax override adding to expense pressure, Massachusetts capital continuing to flow north, and why gold-standard 1970s–90s garden-style apartments are still compressing in cap rate while mid-market and mixed-use assets are expanding.The NHREIA story: how Matt started attending meetings before he had his license, became vice president, ran nine of twelve meetings in one year by default — and how that early visibility accelerated his brokerage and investing career simultaneously.Connect with Matt Lefebvre:Website: downtownrealtynh.com(All contact info, social media links, and team information available on the website)Are 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?

This week, learn how John evaluates the current multifamily market and decides whether to buy, sell, or hold. John opens with the question he hears most often from investors in the current portfolio: what is the outlook, and where does the firm stand as a buyer or a seller today? John explains what has changed. Higher interest rates raised the cost of capital and made it harder to find deals that pencil, while higher savings rates gave investors a low risk alternative that did not exist a few years ago. He walks through the framework he uses in response: separate what you cannot control from what you can, start with operations and the value add upside still available, then weigh that against the runway left on the loan. He also makes the case for thinking like a trader of assets, explains why leverage determines who wins a trade, and shares why he believes multifamily fundamentals remain healthy despite the short term pressure in the market.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Stop spending energy on variables you cannot control Evaluate every deal individually before making portfolio decisions Weigh the value add upside still available against the time left on the loan Never put yourself in a position where you are forced to sell Treat assets as trades and know where your leverage sits Expect forced sellers over the next 12 to 18 months to create buying opportunities     Topics What Investors Are Asking Right Now Investors want to know the outlook and whether the firm is buying or selling Most deals in the portfolio are cash flowing, though not at past distribution levels Why the Market Has Changed Higher interest rates raised the cost of capital and thinned the pool of deals that pencil High yield savings accounts now pay a decent return for far less risk Investors are more cautious after deals that did not perform as projected Focus on What You Can Control John tracks the economy, the Treasury, and the value of the dollar without fixating on them Interest rates in 2027 and election driven policy changes sit outside any operator's control Awareness informs the projection; energy goes toward internal execution Operations Come First Every deal gets reviewed individually for performance, cash flow, and remaining upside If rents can still be pushed and demand is strong, keep executing the business plan Once the value add is captured, the deal moves into a second phase Loan Term Drives the Exit Decision A short runway with the value already captured points toward selling sooner A longer runway with upside remaining supports holding the asset Most deals fall between those two cases and require weighing both factors Selling on Your Terms John is a seller at the right price but wants to stay in control of the timing He expects some operators to be forced to sell over the next 12 to 18 months Groups already exiting at a loss will create opportunities for prepared buyers Why Multifamily Fundamentals Remain Healthy Population growth and the housing shortage have not gone away New construction starts have tapered off after several heavy supply years Midwest markets such as Cincinnati saw smaller swings in both directions The Trade Mindset Brokers talk about assets trading, and John applies the same framing as an investor The mindset centers on a clear business plan and a defined exit instead of an indefinite hold John compares the approach to running a sports team as a general manager Leverage Wins Trades Owning an asset other buyers want is what creates leverage Anyone forced to offload a deal rarely gets the number they wanted Positioning for competition, demand, and a strong story protects value at exit Reading Market Sentiment What buyers are willing to pay matters more than John's own view of value The firm buys when the business plan works and the price makes sense Evaluation is continuous, not a position set in stone      

Denver multifamily market values are down 20 to 30% from the peak, and cap rates in some submarkets have climbed into the 8s. For the first time in years, the spread between interest rates and cap rates is back, and cash flow no longer depends on a speculative rent growth story. Host Chris Lopez sits down with Connor Knutson, Vice President at Pinnacle Real Estate Advisors, who has closed $720 million in career transaction volume across the Denver multifamily market. Connor works primarily in the 20 to 100 unit private capital space, and he brings ground-level data on what’s actually trading, where values have reset, and which submarkets have held up through the correction. Where the pain is concentrated. North Aurora rents have corrected 35 to 40%. Golden Triangle new construction is giving 12 weeks of free rent, effectively 25% off asking. One brand new Class A asset there recently traded off-market for $30 million after previously selling for $63 million, or roughly $170,000 per door. Where the value is holding. Wheat Ridge, Golden, and pockets of Arvada have stayed resilient. Rents are steady, vacancy is low, and pricing has softened far less than the metro average. Why buyers are showing up now. Out-of-state 1031 money from Southern California and Wisconsin is landing in the Denver multifamily market at what these investors see as a 30% discount. Colorado owners scaling out of single-family into their first 5 to 10 unit building are also active. Meanwhile, longtime Denver owners in their 70s are exiting the state entirely, citing Colorado’s tenant-friendly legislative shift. In This Episode We Cover: Why the Denver multifamily market values are down 20 to 30% and where the correction has been sharpest The $63 million to $30 million Golden Triangle trade and what it signals for Class A pricing How insurance premiums doubled since 2019 and how some owners are now saving 50% by reshopping Why cap rates in the 8s and interest rates around 6.5% have restored positive leverage The 20 unit Lakewood deal that just closed at $100,000 per door What out-of-state buyers see in Colorado that local investors sometimes miss Why Yardi Matrix is calling for rent growth to return by the end of 2028 The Denver multifamily market has spent two years compressing, and Connor lays out exactly where the numbers now pencil for buyers with capital and patience. If you’re weighing a Denver multifamily entry or watching the cycle for the right moment, this conversation gives you the current pricing, the current terms, and the current sentiment from someone closing deals every month.

Tucker and I get into what's actually happening in the wholesaling and off-market space right now, why states are starting to crack down on how deals get disclosed, and whether that's actually a bad thing for people doing it right. We also break down a real story from someone I know whose partnership went from doing half a million a month to facing multiple lawsuits and a possible bankruptcy, and why it happened.If you've been feeling like this market is a little "off" and you can't quite put your finger on why, this episode should help. We talk about what it actually takes to keep doing good deals in a flat, grinding market, why so many operators are getting over their skis right now, and what I'm personally doing differently with my own projects because of it.

Multifamily loan delinquencies at U.S. banks have climbed nearly six-fold from their 2022 low, reaching the highest level since 2013. But this isn't 2008. Kathy Fettke breaks down what's driving the increase, why refinancing is creating problems for some apartment owners, and how rising distress could create new opportunities for real estate investors in 2026.  

This week, we are diving into why so many experienced female real estate investors hit a wall after their third or fourth property—and exactly how to move past it. We talk about what happens when the numbers stop penciling, even though you know real estate works because it's already worked for you.  We're breaking down the biggest reasons you're feeling stuck, including: Why not having a true buy box (with real metrics, not vibes) keeps you in analysis paralysis How “Is this a good deal?” is the wrong question—and what to ask instead The trap of trying to eliminate all risk and how that kills every deal on your spreadsheet Why waiting for a “home run” deal is keeping you from building long-term wealth How your next best deal might already be in your portfolio through refinancing, restrategizing, or selling The power of a sanity check and surrounding yourself with other women investors who get it If you're a woman on deals 4–10 who's tired of spinning your wheels alone, this episode will help you see what's really holding you back and give you practical ways to start making confident offers again.       Resources: Get on the waitlist for the WIIRE Community Grab our SOP Templates Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenant 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, Spencer Sutton and Adam Hobson compare single family and multifamily investing and explain why treating them as the same business is a common and costly mistake. They cover the biggest misconceptions around multifamily, like assuming more units automatically means more profit, and walk through why single family is often the easier, cheaper entry point into real estate. You'll learn: The biggest misconceptions investors have about multifamily properties, and why more units doesn't automatically mean more profit Why single family is often the cheapest, easiest entry point into real estate, and where multifamily gets significantly harder What to have in place before buying a multifamily property, from financing and insurance to contractors and experienced eyes on the deal =================================== Connect with Matt and Spencer at Evernest: Evernest.co Hosts: Spencer Sutton and Adam Hobson Visit the Podcast Website: Evernest.co

Click Here for the Show Notes This episode breaks down the pros and cons of single-family versus multifamily real estate investing, helping investors understand which strategy may best fit their goals, budget, risk tolerance, and long-term plans. Single-family properties offer simplicity, broader financing options, easier resale, potentially longer tenant stays, and strong appreciation in desirable markets, while multifamily properties can provide greater scalability and cost efficiencies by putting multiple units under one roof. The key takeaway is that there is no one-size-fits-all strategy—the right investment depends on the numbers, the market, and your individual strategy.

When Jerry Kong sells a single-family home, buyers walk through the door with a compass app open to check the feng shui. When he leases an apartment, tenants just say, "Cool, where do I sign?" That single realization pushed Jerry — alongside his partners Anthony and April — from single-family investing into building a multifamily portfolio spanning Portland, Denver, San Antonio, and Tennessee, with over $50 million in assets under management and 1,000-plus doors. In this episode, Jerry breaks down the exact structure of his first-ever capital raise — a $1.6 million deal split four ways with an experienced sponsor, where he personally raised just shy of $400,000 over two and a half grueling months — and how leveraging that sponsor's name changed the way brokers treated him in his home market almost overnight. He also shares why he calls the biggest, most established operator in any new market before making a move, how radical transparency turned a friend's Porsche fund into an investment in his deal instead, and why the best compliment an investor can give is skipping the webinar because they already trust the process. Whether you're trying to structure your first capital raise or figure out how to keep investors engaged between deals, Jerry's approach to building credibility through consistency and honesty is a rare, unfiltered look inside how a real multifamily team actually operates.Five key takeaways:Multifamily is a fundamentally different sale than single-family. Jerry pivoted away from single-family, where emotional buyers scrutinize everything down to the feng shui, toward multifamily, where tenants sign a lease as a straightforward business transaction — a much better fit for his finance-driven, numbers-first mindset.Everyone on the team has to raise, no exceptions. Jerry's team runs on one rule: no matter your specialty — underwriting, investor relations, marketing — you're still expected to raise capital, because relying on one person for deal flow creates a single point of failure, as they learned firsthand when a team member's personal crisis stalled an entire market.Borrow the biggest name in any new market. Instead of competing against the top established operator in an unfamiliar market, Jerry calls them directly to partner, since that operator has likely already seen — and passed on — the deal for reasons a newcomer might completely miss.Radical transparency builds more trust than a polished pitch. Jerry never leads with upside; he walks investors through the worst-case scenario and every real-world risk built into his underwriting — which is exactly what convinced a savvy investor to delay buying his son a car and invest in Jerry's deal instead.Consistent, personal communication is a credibility engine. Sending newsletters from a personal email instead of a mass-mailer address, doing three touches per distribution, and treating an investor's "no thank you, I don't need the webinar" as the ultimate compliment are what keep investors coming back deal after deal.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.

Agreements for Sale Explained: Real Seller Financing Deals With Zero Money Down Seller financing sounds almost too good to be true. An investor buys a property with little or none of their own money. The seller leaves financing in place. The investor operates the property, collects rent, benefits from cash flow and mortgage paydown, and eventually pays the seller out according to the terms of the agreement. In Canada, one strategy Wayne used extensively to accomplish this is an Agreement for Sale. In today's episode of the Canadian Real Estate Investing Morning Show, Wayne and Gabby continue yesterday's seller-financing discussion by breaking down two real Agreements for Sale Wayne negotiated himself. These are not hypothetical examples. They show how Agreements for Sale can work in the real world, why a seller might agree to one, how Wayne found these opportunities, what he listened for during conversations with sellers, and why the best Agreement for Sale deals create a legitimate win for both sides. As Wayne says: "If you understand the strategies, you'll recognize the opportunities."

Houston delivered 6,400 apartment units in Q1 while Class B absorption came in at negative 750. Michael Bull, CCIM and developer Victor Menasce break down what that means for apartment investors and developers in 2026. Victor Menasce, Senior Partner at Y Street Capital, has developed and owned property through multiple recessions and cycles. He explains why the traditional Class B value-add playbook of adding washers and dryers and pushing rents $50 a month is running out of room, how Class A concessions are pulling renters up and out of older product, and why lease surfing stretches stabilization timelines even in brand new buildings. The conversation also covers entitlement risk and the case for building by right, how opposition groups now organize on social media within weeks and use AI to research objections, the Austin multifamily oversupply and how long that absorption may take, and where the supply and demand mismatch actually sits today. Victor also makes the case for active adult housing as an underbuilt segment between market rate apartments and independent living, with resident tenure averaging around nine years. Plus construction cost trends, factory built delivery, and an insurance renewal that went from $58,000 to a $350,000 quote in a single year.

Scared to Buy Your First Rental Property? Start Here Fear is normal when you are about to invest tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. The question is not whether you are scared. The question is whether you understand enough to know what you are actually scared of, how to manage it, and what systems need to be in place before you take action. In today's episode of the Canadian Real Estate Investing Morning Show, Wayne and Gabby respond to a listener who wants to buy her first rental property but is worried about buying the wrong property, choosing the wrong tenant and eventually losing somebody else's money through a joint venture. The conversation becomes a live coaching session about fear, education, trust, relationships, joint ventures and why confidence in real estate investing comes from understanding — not blind optimism.

Vivek and Asha, founders of Starcore Capital, are successful entrepreneurs and multifamily operators in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Their story began when they immigrated to the United States in 2010 with two young children, determined to build a better future for their family. Their journey was not without challenges. After Vivek unexpectedly lost his job, they quickly realized they wanted greater control over their financial future. That setback became the catalyst for entrepreneurship. They first entered the business world by starting a granite import company, learning many lessons through trial and error. They later launched a successful cookware brand, where their focus on customer service, operational efficiency, and building strong systems helped drive the company's growth. That entrepreneurial experience eventually led them to multifamily real estate. They began as passive investors, using education and mentorship to better understand the business before making the transition to acquiring and operating apartment communities themselves. Today, Vivek and Asha bring an operator's mindset to multifamily investing—emphasizing strong systems, disciplined underwriting, teamwork, and data-driven decision-making. They believe the current DFW market cycle is creating compelling opportunities as distressed properties and motivated sellers begin to emerge. Now, through Starcore Capital, they are taking the next step by launching a multifamily investment fund focused on opportunities throughout DFW. Their goal is to combine their entrepreneurial experience, operational expertise, and disciplined investment approach to identify and improve well-located multifamily assets. The Old Capital Multifamily Accelerator is built for investors who are ready to move beyond podcasts, books, and seminars—and start evaluating real multifamily opportunities.

In this episode, Axel sits down with Zach Hoereth — real estate investor, operator of Midwest Storage, and one of the more entertaining (and polarizing) voices on real estate Instagram — for a genuinely unfiltered conversation about what actually works in this business.He brings a uniquely blunt, been-there perspective on direct-to-seller acquisitions, the limits of AI and technology in a relationship-driven business, and why chasing unit count and AUM is one of the most overrated status games in real estate investing.This episode is essential listening for any investor who wants a no-BS look at what it actually takes to source deals, build a lean operation, and avoid the traps that sideline so many people who get into this business.Join us as we dive into:Zach's path from a college leasing hustle to buying his first $20–30K house in Indianapolis in 2018, and how that snowballed into today's business.How Zach's operation is structured: direct-to-seller mail feeding wholesaling and flipping, which funds acquisitions of small multifamily, single-family rentals, and self-storage — all without outside equity to date.Why "just buying rentals" isn't a wealth strategy — cash flow keeps you in the game, but equity and capital events are what actually move the needle.Why AI and chatbots can't fix a bad reputation or replace the human-to-human trust that wins deals, retains tenants, and keeps LPs engaged.The "70 dudes who partnered on a fourplex" problem — why unit count and AUM get wildly overrated as status symbols, and why doing a few deals solo teaches more than riding shotgun on a syndication.The three things you actually need to start doing direct-to-seller deals: a CRM, a targeted list (tools like PropStream and Reonomy), and a mail houseHow to make aggressive offers respectfully, and why "running toward the confrontation" beats avoiding it.The three Ds of distress — death, divorce, and drama — and how to quickly identify which sellers are actually motivated versus wasting your time.Why a seller's real pain point is often bigger (and weirder) than investors assume, and why being present when they decide to sell matters more than trying to convince them.Connect with Zach Hoereth:Follow him on InstagramAre 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?

The multifamily market is entering a major transition—and disciplined investors may be positioned to benefit. In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse breaks down the emerging 2026–2029 multifamily runway, as the historic wave of new apartment supply begins to get absorbed while new construction pipelines continue to shrink. With renter demand remaining resilient and fewer new units coming online, the supply-demand balance could shift dramatically over the next several years. Dan explains why this environment is creating opportunities to buy from distressed sellers, acquire assets at lower basis points, and lock in low-leverage fixed-rate debt while rents and vacancy remain under pressure. He also discusses why markets with strong job growth, population growth, and demographic tailwinds could be positioned for an especially strong recovery. The key takeaway: buying during the pain may create the opportunity to benefit when the market recovers. As supply gets absorbed and limited new construction follows, investors who acquire the right assets today could be positioned for stronger rent growth and value creation in the years ahead.

You'll hear the exact mindset shifts and systems we've used (and taught thousands of women) to turn a scattered rental portfolio into a streamlined, profitable business.

For the past few years, multifamily investors have been hearing the same prediction: distress is coming, sellers will be forced to sell, prices will collapse, and incredible buying opportunities will finally appear. But where are all those deals? In this episode of the Small Axe Podcast, Nico Salgado looks at what's actually happening in the multifamily market in 2026 and tackles a question a lot of investors are asking: Is it finally time to buy multifamily—or should you keep waiting? Transaction volume remains low. Cap rates have expanded significantly from their 2022 lows. Some owners are facing difficult refinances and upcoming loan maturities. At the same time, there is still a tremendous amount of capital waiting on the sidelines. The massive multifamily crash many investors predicted hasn't arrived. But that doesn't mean opportunities aren't beginning to emerge. Nico explains why distress doesn't always mean foreclosure. Sometimes it's a tired owner, a partnership that wants out, a loan coming due, a property with deferred maintenance, or a seller who has finally become willing to negotiate. He also breaks down exactly how he would approach the market if he had $100,000 today and was trying to buy his first multifamily property. In this episode: Why the predicted wave of multifamily distress hasn't materialized What higher cap rates mean for apartment valuations Why lower prices don't automatically mean better deals Where smaller investors may actually find distressed opportunities How upcoming loan maturities could create motivated sellers Why waiting for lower interest rates could backfire How Nico would invest $100,000 in multifamily today Why today's market gives smaller buyers more negotiating power How to underwrite deals without relying on aggressive rent growth Why cash reserves matter more than maximizing leverage The warning signs that would make Nico walk away from a deal Why you don't need to perfectly time the bottom to build long-term wealth The goal isn't to buy just because prices have fallen. It's to find a good building at a basis that makes sense, finance it with debt you can comfortably service, keep enough cash in reserve to survive the unexpected, and create value through better operations. You don't need thousands of distressed apartment buildings to hit the market. You only need one great opportunity. Start underwriting. Build relationships. Talk to brokers and lenders. Make offers. Learn your market. And when the right opportunity shows up, be ready to move. Keep swinging that axe.

Joe Jensen sits down with Andrew Cushman, founder of Vantage Point Acquisitions, a former chemical engineer who left his corporate job in 2007 to flip single-family homes in Southern California — never losing money on a flip even through the crash — before pivoting to multifamily in 2011 and going on to syndicate and reposition over 3,000 units. Andrew breaks down the mindset that saved his portfolio when interest rates spiked: thinking probabilistically. He shares how locking in a 12-year fixed-rate Fannie Mae loan at 3.79% instead of chasing a cheaper floating rate wasn't about predicting the market — it was about eliminating the low-probability outcome that could take him out of the game. The conversation weaves between real estate and Andrew's life as a backcountry ski mountaineer, where the same rule applies: number one is get home safely, the great ski run is only number three. Joe and Andrew dig into asymmetric risk, why "high risk, high reward" is a loser's mentality, the 80/20 approach to building a balanced life instead of maxing out one category, why the wealthiest investors are long-term holders, where sponsors actually make their money, and the "where are you flirting with disaster?" question every investor should ask. Andrew closes with the expensive lesson a golf-course Ponzi scheme taught him: the operator matters more than the deal. Book a free real estate investing strategy call! No experience necessary.

In this episode of Ask Mike Mondays, Paul and Michael discuss improving apartment fundamentals, lender-driven sales, distressed opportunities, and why today's reset in values could create an attractive buying window. They also introduce the Old Capital Accelerator Program and Michael shares three simple rules he's learned from decades of multifamily investing. Old Capital Accelerator Program Paul introduces the Old Capital Accelerator, a hands-on multifamily education program designed to help investors move from learning about apartments to evaluating and pursuing real opportunities. Participants work with actual deals, learn underwriting and financing, understand due diligence and operations, and gain access to experienced owners and industry professionals. The focus is real-world education and experience—not promoting a particular sponsor or investment. Learn more: oldcapitalaccelerator.com What's Happening in Multifamily? The market remains unpredictable. Many sellers still have yesterday's pricing expectations, while buyers are underwriting based on today's higher interest rates, expenses, and required returns. Meanwhile, lenders are increasingly influencing which properties come to market—sometimes pushing over-leveraged borrowers toward a sale or foreclosure. Some properties are now trading near values last seen years ago, creating what Michael describes as a potential "lost decade" in apartment values for certain owners. Are Fundamentals Improving? Despite negative headlines, Michael is seeing encouraging signs across SPI Advisory's portfolio: • DFW properties are now 90%+ occupied • Portfolio-wide occupancy is approximately 95% • Apartment absorption remains strong across DFW, Austin, and San Antonio • New construction is slowing • Concessions could decline as excess supply is absorbed The key point: apartment values have fallen significantly, but renter demand remains strong. Is This a Buying Opportunity? Investor sentiment remains cautious, but fundamentals are beginning to stabilize. Today's buyers may benefit from lower valuations, less competition, improving occupancy, slowing new supply, available debt capital, and significant tax benefits. Equity remains difficult to raise, which could create an advantage for experienced investors with capital and the ability to execute. Michael believes today's risk-adjusted opportunities—particularly in workforce housing—may be among the most attractive in years. Michael Becker's 3 Rules of Multifamily Investing Rule #1: Don't buy in the hood. A cheap property isn't necessarily a good investment. Rule #2: The business isn't always fair. Track record, credibility, and relationships matter. Rule #3: Don't be a jerk. Multifamily is a relationship business. Your reputation follows you—and compounds over time. Key Takeaway The multifamily market isn't suddenly easy again. Distressed properties can be complicated, equity remains challenging, and buyers and sellers still don't always agree on value. But values have reset, occupancy is improving, new supply is slowing, and debt capital is available. For disciplined investors, this could create one of the more interesting acquisition windows we've seen in years.   Old Capital Accelerator: oldcapitalaccelerator.com SPI Advisory: spiadvisory.com

Welcome to NAA's Apartmentcast, the official podcast of the National Apartment Association. On this sponsored episode, we sit down with Krista Hurley, Industry Principal, Agentic AI Workforce, RealPage, Inc., and Sarah Covington, CAM, HCCP, Operations Specialist at Summit Property Management, to explore one of the rental housing industry's most pressing questions: How do we do more with the teams we already have? Across the industry, the conversation is shifting from staffing shortages to something even more fundamental: Capacity. As onsite teams manage increasing complexity, resident expectations, and operational demands, the question is no longer simply how to hire more people; it's how to enable existing teams to accomplish more. If you're looking for ways to boost efficiently, improve resident experience and get more impact from your teams, this episode is for you. For more on RealPage's Lumina AI suite, visit https://www.realpage.com/platforms/lumina-ai/Please note that as is the case for all NAA Apartmentcast episodes, nothing contained within this podcast should be treated as legal advice.

Today we're talking money. Specifically, the debt and equity that makes every apartment deal possible. Our partner Greg Frick recently sat down with Matt Dzbanek, senior director of capital services at GREA, Global Real Estate Advisors, the national partnership HFO belongs to. Dzbanek places debt and equity coast to coast and has closed loans in nearly all 50 states, which gives him a national view most of us do not get.

Although distress is here in multifamily, great deals are still largely elusive. There's still a lot of money on the sidelines, and lenders are hanging on to properties with the hope they'll increase in value. Ken Doble, Partner at Quantitative Realty Capital, sold off the last of his 9300-unit portfolio in 2023 and is back in the market. Ken has looked at hundreds of deals and only bought one since selling off his portfolio. Ken is a highly experienced operator who emphasizes the intricate details of all aspects of acquisitions, asset management, and operations. He generally avoids class C because of a difficult tenant base that can result in high delinquencies plus obsolete systems that end up eating into profits in ways you can't anticipate. Class C also tends to get crushed in bad recessions.

In this video, I explain why I believe renewals and supply are two of the most undervalued factors in multifamily investing.I break down how stronger renewal rates can improve cash flow and reduce turnover costs, and why limited supply can be just as important as strong demand when evaluating an investment.Learn more about LSCRE at www.lscre.com

In this Multifamily Minutes episode, Axel breaks down why revenue management deserves far more attention than most multifamily operators give it. Using a simple 10-unit example, he shows how a single percentage point of recovered revenue — whether from reduced vacancy or lower delinquency — can boost net free cash flow by 5% or more, a magnified effect similar to how leverage amplifies returns. He also shares how his own portfolio tracks collections throughout the month, why vacancy is the lever operators actually control while rent is dictated by the market, and the practical steps his team is taking — from tenant screening to new collections technology — to keep squeezing out those last few points of revenue.Join us as we dive into:Why revenue assumptions (vacancy and delinquency) vary wildly across A, B, C, and D class deals.The leverage analogy: how small revenue changes create outsized swings in net free cash flow.What happens at the extreme: a 3% revenue increase driving 15–16%+ additional cash flow.Why this effect becomes easier to see and more important at scale, across larger portfolios or buildings.How Axel's team tracks collections by day of the month (1st–5th, 5th–12th, 12th–30th) and what "normalized" collections look like for stabilized C-class buildings.The tech and process changes being used to push collections rates higher, including third-party payment plan platforms for past-due tenants.Are 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?

The multifamily market is working through one of the largest apartment supply waves in decades—but the story may be shifting. In this episode of Keeping It Real Estate, Dan Brisse breaks down what's happening across the multifamily market, with a closer look at Dallas-Fort Worth and Nashville. While record deliveries have pushed vacancy higher and kept rent growth under pressure, new construction is falling sharply, creating a much thinner supply pipeline heading into 2026 and 2027. Dan explains why slowing construction, strong renter demand, and the growing affordability gap between renting and owning could create a significant tailwind for existing multifamily assets. He also dives into the distress building across the market as 2021–2022 vintage deals face maturing bridge debt, expiring rate caps, refinancing pressure, and forced sales. For well-capitalized and disciplined investors, Dan explains why this combination of distressed assets and a rapidly tightening supply pipeline could create a generational buying window—and why Granite Towers is staying aggressive on acquisitions while other investors remain on the sidelines. If you want to understand where the multifamily market is headed and why the next 12–18 months could create some of the most compelling buying opportunities in years, this episode breaks down the data and the strategy behind it.

In this episode, Michael Blank reconnects with multifamily investor and capital raiser Lane Kawaoka to take a hard look at what has changed in commercial real estate since the market peak—and where the opportunities may be today. After investing in more than 10,000 multifamily units and returning more than $45 million to investors, Lane shares lessons from navigating both the boom years and the subsequent market correction. They discuss shifting investor sentiment, conservative underwriting, emerging and tertiary markets, diversification beyond multifamily, and why the quality of the operator matters more than ever. Lane also explains how building relationships outside of real estate has helped him discover opportunities in other asset classes and why today's market may reward investors who are willing to think differently while staying disciplined.Key TakeawaysThe Investor Mindset Has ChangedThe FOMO-driven investing environment of 2021–2022 has been replaced by more sophisticated investors focused on diversification, risk, and long-term wealth creation.Conservative Underwriting Matters More Than EverToday's higher interest rates, elevated insurance and taxes, and limited cash flow leave little room for aggressive assumptions. Investors need to underwrite deals based on what they know—not what they hope will happen.The Best Opportunities May Be in the "Boring" MarketsMarkets that avoided the massive development and price run-ups of the Sun Belt may offer more stability and less competition as investors search for the next wave of opportunity.The Operator Can Matter More Than the Asset ClassWhen investing outside your area of expertise, the key isn't becoming an expert in every industry—it's finding proven operators with strong track records, especially through difficult market cycles.Diversification Doesn't Mean Abandoning Your Core StrategyInvestors can continue building expertise in multifamily while selectively exploring complementary asset classes, businesses, private equity, self-storage, or other opportunities.Build Relationships Before You Need ThemExpanding your network beyond traditional real estate circles can open doors to new operators, industries, and investment opportunities—but building that trust takes years, not weeks.Connect with Lane KawaokaThe Wealth Elevator: https://thewealthelevator.comEmail: Lane@TheWealthElevator.comFor Deal Submissions: Lane mentioned that he is open to reviewing deals from operators with more than $1 billion in assets.Connect with our Deal Maker PartnersCheck out all Partners hereAttorney - Swafford Law LLC Asset Manager - Cyndee Harding, High Caliber MultifamilyCPA - James Bohan, Stonehan AccountancyMentor - Deal Maker MentoringResourcesConnect with Michael BlankTheFreedomPodcast.com Join the Deal Maker MastermindExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsGet the Syndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session537/

In this episode of the WIIRE Podcast, we sit down with Victoria Sydni, owner of Fulcrum Property Management in Corvallis, Oregon, to talk about something every woman in real estate secretly worries about: hard tenant conversations. We walk through real scripts and strategies for: Screening tenants with no credit, no job, or big sob stories Enforcing your lease terms when tenants cause damage Charging back for maintenance issues that are clearly tenant-caused Handling non-responsive tenants and repeated no-shows for maintenance Setting and communicating business hours and true emergency protocols Doing security deposit accounting confidently, with documentation to back you up Navigating breakups on the lease (when one partner wants off) Communicating rent increases without feeling like “the bad guy” We also talk candidly about the mindset shift from “I feel bad” to “I run a business,” especially for female landlords and investors who want to stay kind but firm. You'll hear how we set boundaries, avoid becoming friends with tenants, and still lead with compassion—without getting walked on. If you're a female real estate investor or aspiring landlord who fears the midnight maintenance call or the angry text, this episode will give you language, confidence, and systems to protect both your cash flow and your peace of mind.     Resources: Follow Victoria on Instagram Listen to Episode 158 Get the deets on Steadily Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenant 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 Small Axe Podcast, Nico Salgado breaks down what today's slowing rent growth actually means for multifamily investors—and why it doesn't mean the opportunity is gone. For years, multifamily investors benefited from rapidly rising rents. You could renovate units, push rents, and rely on a strong market to help drive NOI and property values. Today, that environment has changed. Rent growth has slowed considerably, new apartment supply is still being absorbed, and renters have more choices. For small operators, that means the old playbook needs to change. Nico shares what he's seeing in his own portfolio and the practical adjustments investors should be making right now—from pricing vacant units and understanding your true competition to retaining good tenants, reducing turnover, and holding property managers accountable. He also explains why investors looking to buy today should stress-test their underwriting, question aggressive rent-growth assumptions, and make sure a deal can survive even if rents don't increase for the next few years. The opportunity in multifamily isn't gone. But the investors who win the next cycle may not be the ones who buy the most buildings—they'll be the ones who operate them the best. In this episode: Why multifamily rent growth has slowed How new apartment supply affects smaller properties Why vacancy can cost far more than lowering rent How to evaluate your true rental competition Why retaining good tenants matters more than ever How to stress-test a multifamily deal before buying Why you shouldn't rely on rent growth to make a deal work How better operations can drive NOI in a flat-rent environment Why small operators may actually have an advantage in today's market The market has changed. The question is whether your strategy has changed with it. Keep swinging that axe.

Dwight shares his long-term hold philosophy, fixed-rate debt strategy, how he aligns capital with investor goals, and practical tax tools most investors overlook (including 1031s, 721 exchanges, DSTs, and Opportunity Zones). The conversation also covers senior housing niches, the role of AI in operations, and how to evaluate deals when sentiment feels “yucky.”About the Guest:Dwight Dunton is the founder and CEO of Bonaventure, a vertically integrated multifamily investment, development, and property management company founded in 1999. With approximately $2.8 billion in assets under management, Bonaventure focuses on long-term holds across multifamily and senior housing (active adult, independent living, assisted living, and memory care).
