Podcast appearances and mentions of neal bawa

In this episode of A Canadian Investing in the U.S., Glen Sutherland welcomes renowned data-driven real-estate investor Neil Bawa. Neil shares his journey from tech entrepreneur to full-time real-estate operator after selling his company in 2013 and facing a huge tax bill that pushed him into multifamily investing. He now manages a $660 million portfolio across multifamily, self-storage, industrial, and student-housing projects, backed by 1,300 accredited investors. Neil explains why he diversifies across asset classes—citing supply-cycle shifts, learning opportunities, and partnerships—as well as the value of publishing commercial-real-estate data to attract like-minded, analytical investors. Later, the conversation turns to market cycles and practical indicators of when new opportunities emerge. Neil predicts that within 18 months, most U.S. metros will transition from oversupply to shortage, starting a new bullish phase. He outlines how professionals can track this shift using CoStar, Yardi, RealPage, or Hello Data, and even simple rent-growth trends above 2 percent as a signal of recovery.

In this episode of Real Estate Breakthrough,  Host Christina Suter sits down with data geek and real estate powerhouse Neal Bawa to unpack how investors can use data and AI to navigate today's complex market, and why gut instinct alone isn't enough anymore. Neal breaks down the "existential crisis" in ground-up development, why some markets are still overbuilt, and where the real opportunities lie in 2026 for multifamily and single-family investors.  He also shares his personal system for turning spreadsheets and legal documents into clear, actionable insights in minutes, not days, using ChatGPT. You'll learn: Why access to data is now trivial, and how to turn it into a strategic advantage Which markets are poised for growth (and which are still stuck) in 2026 How to identify "needle in a haystack" opportunities in development Why the 5–50 unit space may be stronger now than larger multifamily Neal's take on interest rates, inflation, and why real estate remains a powerful fixed asset in uncertain times Whether you're a data-driven investor or still rely on intuition, this episode will give you the tools, insights, and mindset to make smarter, more confident moves in today's shifting landscape.

The Power and Pitfalls of Niche Asset Classes  Paul Moore's perspective on “boring but beautiful” sectors like self-storage and small-bay industrial assets emphasizes their recession resistance and long-term cash flow. He underlines: “A great property can be ruined by a mediocre operator, and a mediocre asset can be saved and prosper under a great asset manager.” This theme of specialized knowledge—versus chasing trends—is critical for sustainable, risk-adjusted returns. 2. Leveraging Data, AI, and Hyperlocal Analysis Neal Bawa demonstrates how real estate investing is being revolutionized by artificial intelligence and predictive analytics. “All of our rent comps are now done by a tool called Manus…We're able to manage our properties better because our weekly reports on asset management are AI-generated,” Neal shares. The key is using tech not just for efficiency, but for smart, precision targeting in investment decisions. 3. Strategic Asset Management—From Landlord to Business Owner Ken emphasizes the essential mindset shift from simply being a landlord to managing properties as scalable businesses. “If the asset is in really, really good shape, it's well capitalized, it's maintained, financially maintained…then it actually helps when you start to exit.” Operational excellence—including robust asset management and leveraging both people and systems—drives sustainable value. 4. Aligning Values and Wealth: Impact Investing in Real Estate  This episode dives into strategies for doing well while doing good. Jay Papasan highlights, “The money is good for the good it can do...wealth is great because we can make great change with it.” Both he and J Scott discuss setting impact goals, engaging community, and integrating purpose into investment models—showing that profitability and purpose aren't mutually exclusive.

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Neal Bawa, founder and CEO of Grocapitus and a nationally recognized leader in data-driven real estate investing. Known as the “Mad Scientist of Multifamily,” Neal brings a tech-forward approach to real estate, combining sharp market analysis with a clear-eyed view of risk, strategy, and opportunity. Neal shares how he went from running a tech company in Silicon Valley to building a $660 million real estate portfolio. He breaks down the importance of data modeling, boots-on-the-ground research, and why emotional detachment is critical for success. In 2009, his in-depth analysis revealed a unique opportunity to purchase distressed properties in Madera, California, long before others recognized the potential upside. By pairing his insights with real-world hustle, he secured cash-flowing assets in a down market. The conversation covers more than just the past. Neal outlines today's market challenges and where he sees opportunities. He explains how rising interest rates, oversupply in Class A markets, and flawed assumptions about cash flow have changed the investment landscape. Through it all, his emphasis remains the same: use data to identify market timing, stay ahead of headlines, and act strategically. Jonathan and Neal also dig into why townhomes have become the most efficient build-to-rent option, how Neal's team sources land with minimal upfront capital, and why absorption rates—not just occupancy—are the key metric to watch in multifamily. For new and seasoned investors alike, this episode is a masterclass in seeing opportunity where others see risk. In this episode, you will hear: How Neal used data and timing to succeed during the 2009 downturn The importance of combining tech with in-person market validation Tactics for spotting mispriced Class A properties using rent roll analysis Absorption trends as a better indicator than occupancy rates Townhomes as an efficient and scalable build-to-rent solution Land acquisition techniques that limit upfront capital exposure Frameworks for building scalable, data-informed investing systems Market shifts that signal rent growth recovery on the horizon Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

What if you could predict how a housing market performs before buying there? This would allow you to invest only in the best areas across the US, putting money down where you know it will multiply and letting you get leagues ahead of the other investors. This is MORE than possible, but you'll need to know which metrics mean the most to an investing market. Neal Bawa has been doing this for years, building a huge real estate investing empire simply by looking at the data others often ignore. Today, he's giving you his exact strategy. Why should you NOT invest in your backyard? It may seem like the easiest place to start, but Neal says you could miss out on a massive upside by sticking to what is comfortable. As a data scientist, he puts the numbers before the hype, ditching cities that investors are flocking to and investing in those that only have the most solid fundamentals. He mentions one metric that makes a housing market grow or slow in rent prices, but which metric is it? Today, Neal is sharing the best markets across the US to invest in, why renters prefer one type of housing over others (it's not what you'd think), what Neal is buying NOW even with high interest rates and still (relatively) stubborn sellers, and why his six-metric formula is the key to predicting which markets will boom. In This Episode We Cover How to predict rent growth and home price growth in ANY market in America Multifamily vs. single-family rentals and why one hybrid is beating both Neal's top 2025 markets to invest in using his six-metric market formula Why Neal stopped making offers on apartments and started buying THIS instead Is local real estate investing hurting your returns?

Real estate visionary Neal Bawa, CEO of Grocapitus and MultifamilyU, returns to the podcast. Neal always presents a compelling data-driven forecast that should capture every investor's attention. Despite current market uncertainties, Bawa reveals a significant 5-million-unit housing shortage alongside plummeting inflation rates, positioning the US as the strongest performer among developed economies. Most notably, he predicts a dramatic surge in both single and multi-family rent growth during 2026-27, driven by high interest rates creating supply gaps. With homeownership projected to decrease to 60% within a decade, the rental market is poised for unprecedented strength. This perfect storm of undersupply, shifting demographics, and economic conditions suggests a golden opportunity for strategic real estate investors, particularly in the multi-family sector, with promising rent growth anticipated as early as late 2025. Highlights/Topics: Hard data trumps market fear: why the numbers tell a different story US economy dominates globally as inflation drops from 6% to 2.4% Rising national wealth meets housing crisis: housing investment opportunity New construction wave promises better prices for entry-level housing market Five million unit shortage creates perfect storm for 2026-27 housing gap Massive rent increases predicted across all housing sectors in 2026-27 Historic shift: Homeownership dropping to 60%, rental demand soars nationwide Real estate investments outperform during global inflationary cycles and market shifts 2025 forecast: Interest rates and delinquencies reshape investment landscape ahead Strategic opportunity: Significant rent growth predicted for late 2025 market Visit multifamilyu.com to dive deeper into these insights!

Despite the negative press, there have been fewer than 1% of multifamily properties taken back by banks. Even with the tailwinds of late, including declining rents, higher interest rates and higher expenses, most borrowers are servicing their debt. In general, multifamily has proven to be a resilient asset class. With prices having come down 25%, now may be an opportune time to buy. The cost of single-family homeownership has gotten out of reach for most first-time homebuyers, and more millennials and Gen Zers prefer to rent. As a result, the rental pool is actually expanding. Oversupply is making occupancy numbers challenging, but new supply will be absorbed over the next few years. Neal Bawa, Founder of GroCapitus, is searching for multifamily projects to Invest in at the right price, and is also investing in Build-to-Rent communities. 

In this episode, Toby Mathis of Anderson Business Advisors welcomes Neal Bawa back to the show for another eye-opening appearance. Neal is the founder and CEO of Grocapitus, a commercial real estate investment company, and CEO of MultifamilyU, an apartment investing education company. Neal reports some jaw-dropping stats: 18 million families are priced out of homeownership due to salary versus mortgage disparities. Landlords are poised with a peak supply of 673,000 apartments in 2024, but the market will experience a shortage and price hikes in 2025-2026. The Federal Reserve's interest rate policies aim to balance inflation and affordability concerns, potentially influencing market dynamics. Investors are advised to target multifamily properties and land purchases, focusing on 5-unit properties over smaller units and considering assumable loans for strategic advantages in the current market landscape. Highlights/Topics: Market progress since Covid Increases - Salaries vs. Mortgages 18 million families have been priced out of home ownership Opportunities for landlords - supply is peaking - 673,000 apartments in 2024 2025-2026 will see extreme apartment shortages and price hikes Interest rates and the Fed Inflation vs. rate cuts, affordability may improve Possible zig-zagging market price fluctuations What should investors do “right now”?
