Podcasts about multifamily

From a wrong-number job interview to running two Bay Area branches and finally launching his own shop, Josh Fleenor lays out how Pest Pros grew from two trucks to a regional force—anchored in multifamily, a “whatever it takes (the right way)” culture, and promoting leaders early so the company can scale without breaking. You'll hear the origin story, the first-year sprint to $747k, the blue-ocean play in property management, and how hugs, hard conversations, and clear guardrails keep the team winning year after year. You'll hear: The misdial that led to pest control, five years at Clark, and the leap after a dissolved partnership.Why multifamily became the beachhead—and how value + pricing flipped “dirt-cheap” accounts into real margin.The year-one LinkedIn blitz, $700k booked in property management, and testing channels by turning Google off.Culture in practice: “no excuses, find a way,” hugs and vulnerability, and guardrails so “whatever it takes” doesn't burn families out.Hiring slow for core values, promoting early to build leadership layers, and a structure that rotates HQ leaders into satellite offices.Tech & tools: cautious AI (great for SOPs, not for phones—yet), contests, and experiences that bond the team.

Send us a textThe commercial real estate landscape is evolving, not dying, and Mike "Big Mike" Zlotnick is at the forefront of connecting passive investors with lucrative opportunities. His simple yet powerful philosophy? "We marry money and opportunity."Contrary to popular belief, many commercial property types are thriving post-pandemic. Open-air shopping centers have become particularly attractive investments as supply remains constrained while demand grows. Even previously online-only retailers like Warby Parker have opened hundreds of physical locations, recognizing that customers still want in-person experiences for certain products. Meanwhile, industrial properties continue seeing strong demand due to reshoring initiatives and manufacturing needs. Multifamily remains a necessity-based investment that performs well across economic cycles.Not all commercial property is created equal, however. Zlotnick candidly warns about office space being a "danger zone" due to remote work trends. This level of transparency characterizes his investment approach, which prioritizes downside protection over home runs. "I would rather never lose money than make 10 home runs and 10 strikeouts," he explains, echoing Howard Marks' definition of risk as simply "the possibility of loss."For those interested in commercial real estate syndication, Zlotnick breaks down the essentials: typically, investors need to be accredited ($200,000 annual income or $1 million net worth excluding primary residence), with minimum investments around $100,000. The syndication structure allows investors to participate passively while experienced operators manage the properties, providing both cash flow and potential appreciation.Perhaps most compelling is Zlotnick's perspective on the educational journey of investing. He poses a thought-provoking question: "Are you learning to invest, or are you investing to learn?" This dual nature of investment education underscores that every decision provides valuable lessons, regardless of outcome.Ready to explore commercial real estate investing with a focus on predictable outcomes?

In this podcast episode, we dive deep into why women often struggle with analysis paralysis in real estate investing. As female investors, we understand the psychological barriers that hold us back - from social conditioning to perfectionism and fear of making mistakes. We share practical strategies for overcoming these challenges, including creating a precise investment Buy Box, starting with low-risk properties, and tracking personal wins and lessons learned. We emphasize how critical community support is in transforming hesitation into confident action. Through our personal stories and experiences from successful female investors, we reveal that second-guessing is normal but shouldn't prevent wealth building. We encourage you to trust your own research, embrace imperfect first investments, and take bold steps in real estate. Our key message this week is simple: you don't need to be perfect to start investing. Whether it's a small duplex or a partnership investment, taking action is more important than waiting for the ideal moment. We've learned that surrounding yourself with supportive investors can dramatically shift your mindset and accelerate your investment journey. By understanding these barriers and implementing strategic tools, women can confidently build their real estate portfolios and create lasting financial success.  Resources:Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupGrab our free Buy Box 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

In this episode, Craig Mcgrouther sits down with Axel Ragnarsson of Aligned Real Estate Partners, who's carved out a unique niche buying 5-20 unit properties direct from sellers in Southern New Hampshire. Since 2016, Axel has built a 525-unit portfolio by maintaining long-term follow-up with sellers, often nurturing relationships for 12-18 months before closing. He explains how 75% of his deals bypass brokers entirely, capturing inefficiencies in the $1-5M deal range where 15-20% discounts are still possible. With New Hampshire being the only Northeast state with positive population growth and minimal new supply, Axel's market has avoided the operational distress plaguing sunbelt markets. Learn more about LSCRE:www.lscre.com

With Q3 2025 wrapping up this week, the most notable performance stat for the quarter was the deceleration in rent growth. At the U.S. level, annual effective rent growth slowed from 1.2% at the beginning of the quarter to 0.6% in the last two weeks of September. Now, the focus turns to how fundamentals change in Q4, and how that impacts the outlook for 2026. Listen to this week's report for more!Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

On this week's episode of Horizon, John Chang unpacks where multifamily demand is heading amid conflicting data and shifting migration trends. He explains how the August employment revisions, slower domestic and international migration, and a still-wide rent-to-own payment gap could cool absorption in the near term, especially across high-construction Sun Belt markets. John contrasts those headwinds with steadier fundamentals in supply-constrained “snow belt” metros, notes the growing importance of lease renewals over new leases, and makes the case that cap rates are stabilizing near equilibrium. He closes with a near-term “slow and steady” outlook and a longer-term rebound thesis for select Sun Belt markets once excess supply burns off.

In this episode of The Property Profits Podcast with Dave Dubeau, we welcome Jason Kenney from Nashville.

He explains how his background in analytics shaped his investing approach, why he prefers steady Midwest markets over flashy coastal ones, and how he managed to weather recent market corrections while many others struggled.

You ever walk into a room and immediately feel the energy of something special?That's Blueprint.Fresh off the heels of this year's event in Las Vegas, I'm still buzzing from the caliber of conversation, connection, and curiosity on display. This isn't just another industry event—it's the collision of PropTech and Multifamily, intentionally designed for those pushing the boundaries of what's next.We're talking curated sessions that dig deep into real-world innovation.Networking that isn't accidental—it's engineered.And panels that don't just inform, they inspire.I had the honor of sharing the stage with some of the brightest minds, discussing the rise of agent-to-agent ecosystems—where AI doesn't just talk to people, it talks to other AI. But here's the twist: there's still a crucial role for humans.How do we bring value in a world where machines serve machines?That question sparked some of the richest conversations I've had all year.Oh, and a big shoutout to the organizers—Martin and crew, you crushed it. Separating the session rooms from the trade show floor this year? Brilliant move. Cleaner focus. Greater impact.If you've never been, do yourself a favor—mark your calendar for next year.Blueprint isn't just a conference. It's a catalyst.

And in this episode, he drops truth bombs you won't hear anywhere else… In this conversation, we cover: Why the Fed cutting rates could actually raise mortgage rates How today's cap rate projections are ignoring key bond market signals Why insurance premiums are exploding (even in low-risk markets) The hidden risk in relying on outdated lending strategies And the reason Jake believes the next 12 months will divide winners and losers If you're holding multifamily—or plan to—this episode is required listening.

Small multifamily rentals may be the secret to turning average investors into millionaires. These unassuming properties are in the perfect “sweet spot” for scaling a real estate portfolio, helping you reach financial independence faster with more passive income than regular, single-family rentals, but with even fewer expenses. Today, we're giving you the five steps to buy your first small multifamily and why 2025 may be the best time to get in the game. Dave, your host, is financially free right now primarily because of small multifamily rentals. His first rental was a small multifamily, he house-hacked a small multifamily, and over a decade later, this remains his favorite real estate investment—for good reason. Small multifamily properties bring in more rent but leave you with only one roof, one furnace, and one foundation to worry about. You can use the best, lowest down payment debt to get one, and just a few of these properties could make you financially free. So, how do you buy your first multifamily property? We'll break down the five beginner-friendly steps to get there, from picking a market to finding deals, getting a loan, analyzing for cash flow, and closing and managing. This is the small multifamily blueprint that works in 2025 (we're currently using it to invest!).  In This Episode We Cover Why small multifamily rentals are in the perfect investing “sweet spot” for 2025  The five simple steps you can take this year to buy a small multifamily rental  Why smaller multifamily rentals often outperform larger ones How to get into your first small multifamily for just 3.5% down  The best real estate markets for small multifamily investing in 2025  And So Much More!

In this episode, I break down a truth that too many people miss: in multifamily, the hardest part isn't finding deals—it's raising capital. I walk you through the cycles I've seen and learned about: Post-GFC (2009–2011): Deals everywhere, no capital. 2020–2022: Capital everywhere, no deals. Today: Deals are discounted, but the money is tight. We'll cover why the game always shifts, why waiting for the “perfect” market is a trap, and how to think about capital preservation, cash flow, and growth in today's climate. If you're an operator, it's time to double down on relationships and strategic partnerships. If you're an investor, it's time to stop letting inflation eat your money and start deploying wisely with operators you trust. This is about fundamentals, mindset, and playing the long game.
