Today we dive into Self-Storage investments.My guest is Clint Harris. Clint is a former medical sales professional turned real estate investor and co-host of the podcast, Truly Passive Income. After spending 16 years working alongside physicians and clinical teams, Clint gained firsthand insight into the demanding schedules, pressures, and financial challenges healthcare professionals face. While still working full time in medical sales, Clint began building passive income through real estate investing, ultimately transitioning into large-scale commercial projects. Today, he is a General Partner at Nomad Capital, where he helps develop and operate cash-flowing commercial assets and has helped raise capital for over $150 million in stabilized properties. Clint now focuses on educating busy medical professionals on how to invest passively - allowing them to continue practicing medicine while their money works for them.

It is too easy to fudge a rental property deal sheet, sell the property to an investor, and blame the property manager when the property doesn't perform as expected.But the person that loses most in that scenario is the investor!  That's why we'll be breaking down real deal sheets in this week's Not Your Average Investor Show!JWB Co-Founder Gregg Cohen and host Pablo Gonzalez are breaking down a Memphis rental property deal and comparing it with how JWB looks at rental opportunities in Jacksonville.They'll walk through the numbers, point out what may or may not be included, and show you why monthly cash flow is only one part of the picture.You'll learn:✅ How to compare rental property deals across two different markets✅ Why two deal sheets may show expenses differently✅ Which numbers and assumptions deserve a closer look✅ How financing and property management can affect the deal✅ Why the biggest cash flow number does not always tell the whole story A good deal is not just about the city or the biggest number on the page.Listen NOW!Chapters:00:00 Deal Sheet Showdown02:04 Resident Testimonial Story03:51 Why Great PM Matters07:24 Show Origin and Disclaimers08:17 Seven Pro Forma Red Flags13:38 Memphis Deal Sheet Overview15:00 New Construction Appreciation Trick18:23 Rent Growth and PM Fee Incentives24:12 Cash Flow Table and Lease Assumptions28:14 Renewals vs Turnover Maintenance Reality31:22 Maintenance Reality Check32:30 2.5% Assumption Exposed34:30 Vacancy and Management Fees36:01 Occupancy and Renewals Matter37:06 Tax Savings Math Errors39:11 Property Tax Fact Checking40:48 Loan Payoff Confusion43:05 Appreciation and Selling Costs48:39 Right Sizing the Pro Forma50:35 Memphis vs Jacksonville Returns53:22 Equity Harvesting Strategy56:11 JWB Pro Forma Q&A01:02:58 Jacksonville Downtown Catalyst01:05:54 Community Wrap UpStay connected to us! Join our real estate investor community LIVE: https://jwbrealestatecapital.com/nyai/Schedule a Turnkey strategy call: https://jwbrealestatecapital.com/turnkey/ *Get social with us:*Subscribe to our channel  @notyouraverageinvestor  Subscribe to  @JWBRealEstateCompanies  

Occupancy is a lagging indicator. By the time census begins to fall, the problems behind it may have been visible for months.In this episode, Melissa Brown talks with Jerry Vinci, founder of CCR Growth, co-founder of Nordon, and host of From Leads to Leases, about the early warning signs that reveal whether a senior living community's occupancy is truly sustainable.They discuss declining search visibility, weakening reviews, lost competitive positioning, AI visibility, pricing transparency, resident experience, and the risks of relying too heavily on third-party referral aggregators. Jerry also explains why growing demand will not automatically fill every building—and why operations, service, staffing, and ownership of the lead pipeline matter more than simply increasing advertising spend.If your community is full today, this conversation will help you determine whether it is positioned to stay that way.Support the show

Guns Up, real estate investors! In this episode of The Note Closers Show, Scott Carson heads up to Lubbock, Texas, to analyze a unique non-performing first-lien note case study. This occupied 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features significant recent exterior rehab (new roof, windows, and paint), 33% equity, and a surprisingly low $158/month principal and interest payment that has gone unpaid for nearly two years! Scott walks through the exact due diligence, valuation metrics, and multiple exit strategies—showing you how to navigate low interest rates, foreclosure options, and REO sales to target returns ranging from 25% to over 67%!Detailed Episode HighlightsProperty & Location: 3-bed, 2-bath, 1,881 sq. ft. single-family home (built in 1950) on a 7,900 sq. ft. lot in Lubbock, Texas. Loan Details & Peculiarities: Non-performing first lien with an estimated legal balance of $85,600 and a 3.25% interest rate. The original 2005 loan was $40,000, resulting in an unusually low $158.39/month payment. Property Condition & Transition: Recent Zillow imagery reveals major exterior upgrades (new roof, single-tone paint, new windows) compared to older bank BPOs from 2022 ($88K value). Current Zestimate sits conservatively at $129,000. Occupancy & Title Research: Tax rolls and deed records show the property was transferred from the original borrower to his daughter, who currently occupies the home. Exit Strategy #1 (Reinstatement Risk): Why requiring full reinstatement (36 months of payments in year 1) is mandatory—and why a low $158/month payment yields an unappealing 2.77% long-term return without foreclosure pressure. Exit Strategy #2 (Foreclosure Auction): Bidding at 80% of legal balance ($68,500) offers a $17,000 gross profit if sold at auction (~25% annualized ROI or 100% simple return on a 90-day timeline). Exit Strategy #3 (REO Retain & Retail Sale): Foreclosing and taking the property back to sell at $122,000 net proceeds yields a potential $41,300 profit (67%+ ROI). Key Risk Factors: Managing bankruptcy risks, unknown interior conditions, and evaluating servicing notes/right-party contacts.

The national multifamily picture held its ground in the week of July 26, with occupancy staying above last year for a second straight week. As of July 26, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.82 percent, essentially flat on the week and up 29 basis points from a year ago. The leased percentage was 96.77 percent, up 3 basis points on the week and down 62 basis points from last year. Last week's step up in occupancy held, an encouraging sign that the gain was more than a temporary blip.Leasing velocity firmed a bit. The average number of leases signed was 2.1 per property, up 0.1 from the prior week and down 0.7 per week compared to a year ago. That annual gap narrowed from 0.9 the prior week, so demand picked up modestly even as occupancy stayed firm, a healthier mix than the week before, when occupancy climbed on retention alone.Net effective rent firmed slightly. NER rose 0.2 percent on the week to $1,762, though annual NER growth for new leases held at negative 1.9 percent. Rents are stable week to week but have not yet resumed narrowing the annual gap, which leaves pricing as the soft spot. The range across the country stayed wide, with several coastal markets posting solid positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt is still working through negative territory.RevPAU, which combines the change in rents and occupancy, was $1,671, up 0.2 percent on the week, with the annual comparison at negative 1.6 percent, roughly steady with the prior week. Revenue per available unit is holding up on the strength of occupancy and firmer rents together. For operators, the read this week is steady: the occupancy step up held, leasing improved, and pricing remains the one area still waiting to turn.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

The national multifamily picture took a clear step up in the week of July 19, led by a notable jump in occupancy. As of July 19, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.85 percent, up 49 basis points from the prior week and now 39 basis points above a year ago. That is the first time occupancy has run ahead of last year in months. The leased percentage was 96.74 percent, up 29 basis points on the week and 61 basis points below last year. The improvement was across the board, with gains in essentially every tracked market in the week.For leasing velocity, results were soft this week. The average number of leases signed was 2.0 per property, flat from the prior week and 0.9 below a year ago, a gap that widened from 0.6 the prior week. With occupancy climbing even as new lease volume held flat and trailed last year, the gain looks more like stronger retention than a wave of new leasing.Net effective rent gave back a little. NER eased 0.1 percent on the week to $1,758, and annual NER growth for new leases slipped to negative 1.9 percent, after narrowing to negative 1.5 percent the prior week. Pricing softened even as occupancy firmed, a reminder that the two do not always move together. The range across the country stayed wide, with several coastal markets posting positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt continues to work through negative territory.RevPAU was $1,667, up 0.4 percent on the week, with the annual comparison improving to negative 1.5 percent from negative 1.7 percent the prior week. The occupancy gain offset softer rents, and revenue per available unit came out ahead. For operators, the read this week is that occupancy strength is doing the heavy lifting on revenue right now, while pricing power stays limited.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

Whether you're a sales director, executive director, regional sales leader, or marketing professional, you'll walk away with actionable ideas you can implement immediately to keep your pipeline active, your team focused, and your occupancy goals on track all summer long.

Two former Democratic governors are raising serious concerns about Washington state spending, while business leaders, correctional officers and Seattle hotel operators report new challenges involving the state's economy, public safety and World Cup results. Former Washington Gov. Gary Locke criticized Olympia's budget process during the Association of Washington Business Economic Future Solutions Summit. Locke warned against using one-time revenue to fund permanent government programs and said voters could lose trust when money approved for one purpose is later redirected elsewhere. Locke described that practice as a potential “bait and switch” and questioned why Washington continues to face projected budget deficits despite record revenue and recently approved taxes. Former Gov. Christine Gregoire has issued a similar warning. Gregoire noted that Washington's operating budget has grown from approximately $33 billion when she left office to roughly $80 billion today. She argued that the state does not have an income problem but a spending problem and warned that repeatedly adding taxes, regulations and new costs creates uncertainty for Washington businesses. Kelly Chambers, a former Washington state representative who now serves as a regional administrator for the U.S. Small Business Administration, also discussed the contrast between the business climates in Washington and Idaho. Chambers said companies are leaving Washington, Seattle office vacancies remain high and declining commercial property values can shift more of the tax burden onto residents. She said many businesses want to remain in Washington but need an economic environment that allows them to expand, hire workers and become the next major homegrown employer. The episode also examines major safety concerns inside King County correctional facilities. King County Correctional Officers Guild President Dennis Folk says inmates have been breaking electronic tablets and using glass and metal components to make homemade weapons. Folk described an incident in which an inmate allegedly attempted to stab officers with a weapon made from tablet materials. He also questioned why inmates who intentionally destroy the devices can reportedly receive replacement tablets. King County officials say the tablet program provides access to legal resources, education and family communication, but acknowledged that devices can be misused. Questions remain about disciplinary consequences, replacement policies and whether inmates face charges for damaging county property or possessing weapons. Finally, new hotel data show Seattle sold fewer rooms during the World Cup than during the same period last year. Occupancy reportedly declined approximately 7% in June and 5.7% in July, although hotels raised room rates around match days to offset some of the decline. Some operators had reserved rooms based on expectations of strong FIFA demand and turned away conventions or conferences that normally visit Seattle during the summer. When the anticipated bookings failed to fully materialize, it was too late to recover some of that business. Despite the hotel results, more than 3 million people reportedly visited downtown Seattle across six World Cup match days. Downtown Seattle Association President and CEO John Scholes said investments in the waterfront, transit, walkability and a stadium near the urban core created a strong experience for visitors and residents. Watch Washington In Focus Daily for the latest reporting on Washington taxes, state government spending, the regional business climate, King County jail safety, Seattle tourism and the economic impact of the World Cup.

The national multifamily picture kept improving in the week of July 12, with occupancy firming to its best annual comparison in recent weeks. As of July 12, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.37%, up 9 basis points from the prior week and down just 17 basis points from a year ago, the narrowest annual occupancy gap in the recent stretch. The leased percentage was 96.45%, up 8 basis points on the week and down 78 basis points from last year. Leasing velocity held steady. The average number of leases signed was 2.1 per property last week, flat from the prior week, and down 0.6 per week compared to a year ago. The annual gap was essentially unchanged from the prior week, so demand is holding its ground against last year rather than gaining, even as occupancy continues to firm.Net effective rent edged higher. NER rose 0.1% on the week to $1,760, and annual NER growth for new leases improved to negative 1.5%, up from negative 1.6% the prior week. Rents are grinding back toward last year's level, with the annual gap narrowing for a second straight week. The range across the country remains wide, with several coastal markets posting solid positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt is still working through negative territory.RevPAU was $1,661, up 0.2% on the week, with the annual comparison improving to negative 1.7% from negative 1.9% the prior week. With occupancy firming and rents edging up together, revenue per available unit is making steady progress against last year. For operators, the read this week is constructive: the improvement that resumed after the July 4 holiday is holding, and the year over year comparisons keep tightening as we move through July.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

David Bacon has a background in digital marketing, investor acquisition, and growth strategy, with a focus on alternative investments and expanding access to real estate backed opportunities. At Worthy Wealth, he focuses on investor education and connecting everyday investors to income generating real estate strategies, including senior living and other demographic driven sectors. In this episode, John talks with David Bacon about how Worthy Wealth is democratizing real estate investing through $10 senior living shares and housing bonds. David explains how pooling small investments into a diversified portfolio spreads risk, why the company charges no fees, and how its value add strategy of buying and modernizing functionally obsolete senior living facilities meets the surging demand created by an aging population.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Open your capital raise to many small investors instead of relying on a few large checks Spread risk across a portfolio of assets rather than concentrating it in a single deal Understand how a deal is structured and who gets paid first before you invest Follow demographic demand, like the aging population, to find supply gaps in the market  Modernize functionally obsolete properties to create inventory faster than new construction     Topics Democratizing Real Estate Investing The 2012 Jobs Act opened investments once reserved for accredited investors to retail investors Worthy Wealth offers senior living shares and housing bonds at $10 each, with a $100 minimum first purchase for senior living Why Volume Beats Big Checks David would rather have a thousand investors at $10 each than one investor at $10,000 Recurring investments, automation, and round ups on everyday purchases add up to meaningful funds The Portfolio Approach to Risk Traditional real estate investments localize risk in a single asset Worthy Wealth pools investor money into a portfolio, so one problem property does not affect the rest Who the Typical Investor Is Millennials seeking financial independence are the sweet spot, while Gen Z investors are getting started early through mobile apps The model also serves gig workers without traditional retirement plans and higher end investors who see the supply and demand imbalance in senior housing Returns, Fees, and Deal Structure Worthy Wealth charges no fees and makes its money on the back end of each investment Investors earn a 5 to 7% quarterly dividend during a two to five year hold, plus 60% of sale profits, targeting a 15% annualized return The senior living product is a Reg D offering, while the housing bonds are a Reg A Tier 2 offering Understanding How Deals Are Structured John breaks down Reg A and Reg D offerings and the limitations each places on raising capital He urges investors to understand the capital stack and who gets paid first before committing to any deal The Silver Tsunami in Senior Housing More than 11,000 baby boomers turn 65 every day, and the 80 plus population will double in the next 20 years Occupancy at senior living facilities sits at 90% and has grown for 19 straight quarters Why Supply Cannot Keep Up The nation needs $1 trillion in senior living construction over the next decade, yet new construction is at a two decade low Banks charge 50 to 100% higher interest rates on horizontal work like utilities and dirt work, creating a financing bottleneck The Value Add Play in Senior Living 40% of existing facilities were built before the smartphone and are functionally obsolete Worthy Wealth buys these facilities at a discount, modernizes them, hands them to professional management, and sells them for appreciative income    

One of the hottest real estate asset classes in the country is Senior Living. Occupancy levels have caught up and even exceeded pre-covid levels. 10,000 people per day are turning 80 years old and this number is increasing. The average age of senior facility residents is 83, so the number of people who will need some type of Senior Living is about to explode and continue for the next two decades. Matt Johnson, Founder of McFarlin group, acquires distressed properties, increases occupancy and profitability, then sells them. As the market has heated up, and the demographics support future growth, larger global players are investing in this space.

(1) Regulatory Certitude in Londinium: The Power of the Building Inspector and Beachfront Evictions Guests in Londinium, 92 AD: Gaius and Germanicus. The show is temporarily halted due to occupancy issues at the wine bar. Gaius admits to a "completely unforgivable error": failing to give the building inspector an annual birthday raise. He notes that even far from Rome, the local inspector's "red ticket" carries enough weight to shut down their beachfront wine bar despite the Emperor Domitian's distance. The inspector cited concerns about running water, windows, and roof tiles, though Gaius suspects it was a move for more "generous gifts." He laments that his focus on a "robot" sent from Chinafor the orchestra caused him to neglect the inspector's welfare. The hosts plan a "great big party" with the help of centurions to scrub the facility and restore order for the following week's broadcast. (1)londinium 1682 ad

The national multifamily picture held steady in the week of July 5, with the gap to last year continuing to close on most metrics. For much of the spring, the annual comparisons had been improving week by week as this year's numbers caught up to last year's. That progress stalled briefly the week prior, then resumed this week. As of July 5, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.28 percent, up 5 basis points from the prior week and down 25 basis points from a year ago. The leased percentage was 96.36 percent, up 8 basis points on the week and down 81 basis points from last year. Occupancy is strengthening, and both annual gaps closed slightly versus the prior week.Leasing velocity held its ground through the holiday week. The average number of leases signed was 2.1 per property, roughly steady on the week and 0.5 below a year ago. That annual gap narrowed from 0.7 the prior week, so demand kept closing the distance to last year even across the July 4 stretch, when activity typically softens.Net effective rent was flat at the national level, holding at $1,756 on the week, while annual NER growth for new leases improved to negative 1.6%, up from negative 2.0% the prior week. Rents are steady, and the annual gap resumed narrowing after widening last week. The range across the country remains wide, with several coastal markets posting positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt is still working through negative territory.RevPAU, was $1,656, up 0.1% on the week, with the annual comparison improving to negative 1.9% from negative 2.3% the prior week. Revenue per available unit is closing its annual gap right alongside rents. For operators, the read this week is steady and constructive: occupancy is firming, leasing held through the holiday, and the year over year comparisons are tightening again as we head into July.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

Craig Curelop and Miller McSwain sit down for a solo episode of The Co-Living Show to unpack how they took a struggling co-living portfolio from around 50% occupancy to 90% occupancy in just a few months.This was not a simple “post better listings and fill the rooms” story.Before the turnaround, the portfolio had major operational issues. Owners were frustrated, residents were unhappy, vendors had concerns, systems were inconsistent, houses were set up differently, and occupancy was far below where it needed to be.Craig brought the acquisition and growth side. Miller brought the operational systems, leasing process, marketing structure, and resident experience. Together, they walked through the hard process of cleaning up the portfolio, standardizing the houses, communicating with owners and residents, fixing the leasing funnel, and rebuilding trust.In this episode, Craig and Miller talk about the real lessons from the turnaround, including why top-of-funnel marketing, conversion, pricing, tours, retention, resident experience, and change management all had to work together.You'll hear how they approached:• Taking over 20+ co-living houses• Standardizing property systems• Improving resident communication• Handling messy transitions• Rebuilding listings across Zillow, Roomies, Facebook Marketplace, and Apartments.com• Using better photos, videos, pricing, and automation• Testing different follow-up and conversion strategies• Moving from resident-led tours to self-guided tours• Adding welcome baskets, calls, community events, and referral opportunitiesThis episode is especially useful for co-living investors and operators who want to scale without creating operational chaos.Connect with Craig and Miller:Miller McSwainInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/millermcswainCraig CurelopInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/craigcurelopJoin The Co-Living Community:www.millermcswain.com/community

What happens when a senior living operator decides to stop relying on paid aggregators and instead invests in its own sales team, referral relationships, and outreach strategy? In this episode of the Grow Your Occupancy Podcast, Julie Podewitz, CEO & Founder of Grow Your Occupancy, sits down with Tiffany Cooey, Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing at QSL Management, to discuss how QSL has dramatically reduced its dependence on paid referral sources while growing occupancy across its expanding portfolio of communities. Tiffany shares the business case behind the initiative and explains how QSL shifted its sales culture from waiting for leads to actively creating them. She outlines the company's 30-60-90-day outreach planning process, how sales teams identify and cultivate high-value referral partners, and why focusing on quality leads consistently outperforms chasing volume. Whether you're a sales leader, executive director, or regional sales executive, this episode offers practical strategies for building a more profitable, sustainable occupancy pipeline, one that your team owns rather than rents.

The national multifamily picture settled back this week after last week's jump, with occupancy holding roughly steady. As of June 28, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.24%, essentially flat on the week and down 29 basis points from a year ago. The leased percentage was 96.28%, unchanged on the week and down 93 basis points from last year.  Occupancy is holding the line, but the small improvement that had been building through mid-June paused this week. Leasing velocity held its ground. The average number of leases signed was 2.2 per property last week, flat from the prior week, and down 0.7 per week compared to a year ago. The annual gap was steady with the prior week, so demand is neither gaining nor losing ground against last year's pace as we close out June.Net effective rent gave back some of last week's improvement. NER stood at $1,756, and annual NER growth for new leases slipped back to negative 2.0%, after narrowing to negative 1.0% the prior week. Now, some of that swing reflects last year's stronger numbers, which set a higher bar, but the honest read is that the sharp rent step-up we flagged last week didn't carry through. The range across the country remains wide, with several coastal markets still posting positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt sits in negative territory.RevPAU was $1,655, with the annual comparison widening to negative 2.3% from negative 1.3% the prior week.  With rents softening, revenue per available unit followed them lower year over year. For operators, the read this week is that June's late momentum cooled, though occupancy and leasing velocity both remain steady heading into July.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

What separates high-performing senior living sales teams from everyone else? According to Cole Boysen, Director of Sales at Senior Services of America, it's not luck, it's process. In this episode of The Grow Your Occupancy Podcast, Julie Podewitz, CEO & Founder of Grow Your Occupancy, sits down with Cole to discuss how implementing consistent, measurable sales processes creates better coaching, stronger accountability, and more predictable occupancy results. Rather than focusing solely on move-ins, Cole explains why successful sales leaders coach to the behaviors and leading indicators that produce them. Learn how to identify gaps in the sales funnel, improve tour conversion rates, create a culture of lateral accountability across departments, and use data to coach more effectively without creating unnecessary pressure. Whether you're a community Sales Director, Executive Director, or corporate sales leader, this conversation is packed with practical strategies for building a repeatable sales system that delivers long-term success. If you're ready to stop reacting and start leading with intention, this episode offers a roadmap for transforming your sales culture and your occupancy results.

Join us as we kick off our new series, Summer Occupancy. Pastor John speaks on the sacraments of the Church. Before occupying spaces for the Kingdom, we must first be occupied by the Holy Spirit.

What separates investors who scale from those who stay stuck? In this episode of the Abundance Mindset Podcast (Abundance Thursdays), Vinney Chopra and co-host Gualter Amarelo break down one wealth-building principle that's behind every deal Vinney has ever closed: accept what can't be changed — then create an advantage.   Vinney walks through the real numbers on his Columbus, Ohio hotel: bought for around $11M, undergoing a $25M renovation, converting from a Hilton into a full-service Marriott, and expanding from 195 doors to 230 keys — with a projected exit near $70M. You'll also hear how he turned 1,000 unused lockers into revenue-producing meeting rooms, refinanced his way out of a variable-rate apartment deal in Knoxville, and survived the COVID gut-punch when occupancy on a brand-new hotel fell from 87.5% to 25% overnight.   If you're a real estate investor, capital raiser, or aspiring syndicator trying to build wealth in a high interest rate environment, this conversation is a masterclass in solution-focused thinking. As Vinney says: whenever there's a big wall, there's always a window somewhere — you've got to find the window.   ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – "There's Always a Window": The Mindset Behind Every Deal 00:35 – The Columbus Hotel: A $25M Renovation Into a Full-Service Marriott 01:20 – Accept What Can't Be Changed → 195 Doors Become 230 Keys 02:15 – Estimating a $70M Exit (+ Accredited Investor Disclaimer) 03:00 – What a 506(c) Offering Actually Means for You 03:40 – 1,000 Lockers Into Meeting Rooms: Finding Hidden Revenue 04:25 – The Knoxville Apartment & the Variable-Rate Problem 05:00 – Refinancing the Wall Into a Window 06:00 – Why a HIGH Interest Rate Market Works in Your Favor 07:50 – The Hilton-to-Marriott Flag Change & Marriott "War Rooms" 08:40 – Control the Controllables 09:10 – The Banker Call That Saved $60K Now + $60K Every Year 11:00 – The Exit Plan: Sell, Go Passive, Manage the Managers 13:50 – Hospitality Roars Back + the New Tampa Acquisition 15:00 – Finding an Operator Who Isn't Stretched Too Thin 16:00 – No Capital or No Experience?

The national multifamily picture strengthened in the week of June 21, with momentum building across nearly every metric. As of June 21, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.32%, up 6 basis points from the prior week and down just 25 basis points from a year ago, the narrowest annual gap we have seen in recent weeks. The leased percentage was 96.37%, up 6 basis points on the week and down 86 basis points from last year. Occupancy continues to firm, and the gap to last year keeps shrinking. Leasing velocity held its ground and continued to close the distance to last year. The average number of leases signed was 2.2 per property last week, flat from the prior week, and down 0.6 per week compared to a year ago. That annual gap narrowed again from 0.7 the prior week, another small step in the right direction as we move deeper into the summer leasing season. Net effective rent is where this week's story really lands. NER rose 0.8% on the week to $1,770, the strongest weekly gain we have seen in this stretch, and annual NER growth for new leases improved to negative 1.0%, up from negative 1.9% the prior week. Rents are now nearly back to where they were a year ago. The range across the country remains wide, with several coastal markets posting solid positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt is still working through negative territory. RevPAU, which combines the change in rents and occupancy, was $1,670, up 0.8% on the week and down 1.3% from a year ago, a clear improvement from negative 2.2% the prior week. Revenue per available unit is accelerating right alongside rents, and the annual drag has now been cut nearly in half over the past two weeks. For operators, the read this week is genuinely encouraging: occupancy is steady, rents are firming, and the annual comparisons are closing fast as spring leasing winds down. Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

Multifamily Operational Results The national multifamily picture stayed stable in the week of June 14, with a small encouraging shift underneath the surface. As of June 14, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.26%, up 3 basis points from the prior week but still down 33 basis points from a year ago. The leased percentage was 96.31%, up 5 basis points on the week and down 101 basis points from last year. Occupancy continues to hold the line week to week, even if it is running modestly behind where we were a year ago. Leasing velocity told a slightly better story this week. The average number of leases signed was 2.2 per property last week, flat from the prior week, and down 0.7 per week compared to a year ago. That annual gap narrowed from a full lease per week the prior week, which is a small but welcome sign that demand is inching closer to last year's pace as we move through June. Net effective rent is where the trend is most visible. Annual NER growth for new leases improved to negative 1.9% nationally, up from negative 2.4% the prior week, and NER ticked up 0.1% on the week to $1,752. Rents are slowly closing the gap to last year. The range across the country remains wide, with several coastal markets posting positive annual growth while much of the Sun Belt is still in negative territory, some of it down in the high single digits. RevPAU, which combines the change in rents and occupancy, was $1,652, up 0.1% on the week and down 2.2% from a year ago, an improvement from negative 2.6% the prior week. The annual drag on revenue per available unit is easing as rents firm, even with occupancy sitting slightly below last year. For operators, the read this week is constructive: occupancy is steady and the rent trend is finally moving in the right direction. Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

Multifamily Operational Results The national multifamily picture held steady to open June, with occupancy ticking up slightly on the week even as the annual comparison stayed soft. As of June 7, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.24%, up 2 basis points from the prior week but down 23 basis points from a year ago. The leased percentage was 96.27%, essentially flat week over week and down 104 basis points from last year. Holding the line this deep into leasing season is encouraging, but we are still running behind where we were at this point last year. Leasing velocity remains the metric to watch. The average number of leases signed was 2.2 per property last week, down 0.1 from the prior week and down a full lease per week compared to a year ago. That year over year gap is the clearest signal that demand has not fully caught up with the supply working through the system, and it is the main reason occupancy is holding rather than climbing the way we would normally expect in early June. Annual net effective rent growth for new leases was negative 2.4% nationally, and NER was flat week over week at $1,751. Rents have struggled to find momentum this spring, and the annual figure reflects the softer pricing environment operators have been navigating across much of the country. The range remains wide, with a handful of coastal markets still posting positive annual growth while several Sun Belt markets sit in negative territory, some of them down in the high single digits. RevPAU, which combines the change in rents and occupancy, was $1,650, up 0.1% on the week but down 2.6% from a year ago. With both rents and occupancy running below last year's levels, revenue per available unit continues to feel pressure from both sides. For operators, the takeaway is consistent with recent weeks: protect occupancy where you can, because pricing power will stay limited until leasing velocity picks back up. Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

The General Services Administration, the landlord for much of the federal government, says none of the owned or leased buildings it has data on meet the minimum occupancy standard set by law last year. But GSA is reexamining the data it's collected so far. Among its concerns, the data doesn't differentiate office space from rooms where employees aren't working.

Ryan Gibson is a former 17-year Delta and Alaska Airlines pilot turned self-storage mogul, now operating as one of the 29th largest self-storage operators in the country with over $1 billion in assets and 7.5 million square feet under management through his company, Spartan Investors.   In this first of a two-part series, Ryan joins host Chris Pre to break down why self-storage is one of the most recession-resilient asset classes available, how to use seller financing to acquire deals without banks, and what it really looks like to build a 200-person business while still flying commercial jets — and then finally walk away on your own terms.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:08 Passive Income Pilots podcast 02:20 How Ryan and Tait met and started Passive Income Pilots 04:48 The importance of financial and time freedom for pilots 06:03 The 3 Paydays System 08:33 Deep dive into self-storage as an asset class 10:09 Why more Americans use self-storage than fly on airplanes 11:08 The 5 Ds of self-storage demand 13:29 Opportunities for mom-and-pop owned facilities 14:02 Competing with "big money" in smaller markets 15:48 Building trust and uncollateralizing notes 17:12 Typical terms for syndicated real estate deals 19:20 Advice for W-2 employees considering the jump into business 21:07 The psychological benefits of maintaining a professional career 24:42 Preview of part 2: Diversification with Tait Duryea 26:40 3 Paydays Live Event   5 Key Takeaways Self-Storage Wins in Any Economy — The five D's (Death, Displacement, Downsizing, Divorce, Diapers) drive self-storage demand through recessions, COVID, and market downturns alike. Occupancy often increases during economic disruption — not despite it. Avoid Institutional Competition by Going Small — Big money chases 100,000+ sq ft facilities in core markets. The 10,000–20,000 sq ft mom-and-pop space is largely ignored by institutions, which means less competition and far more seller-financing opportunities for individual investors. Seller Financing Is About Aligning Motivations — Ryan's first seller didn't want the note paid off because of capital gains exposure. Understanding why a seller needs what they need — not convincing them — is what makes creative financing work. Authentic outreach and trust over time unlocked a $1.1M carry-back note that followed them to the next deal. Keep Your W-2 While You Build — Ryan flew commercially for 8 to 9 years while building a 200-person company. For airline pilots with flexible schedules, there's little reason to abandon high W-2 income early. Use the schedule, build with urgency during off days, and only step away when the business demands it. ROI on Life Matters as Much as ROI on Investment — Ryan shifted from active flipping to passive investing vehicles because he wanted to give other pilots a great return without sacrificing their time. The goal isn't just financial — it's building a portfolio that gives you back control of how you spend your days.   Links   3 Paydays® Live https://3paydayslive.com/podcast   Free Discovery Call https://smartrealestatecoachpodcast.com/discovery   3 Paydays® System Mastery Course - Use coupon code for 50% off https://smartrealestatecoach.com/qls Coupon code: pod   Apprentice Program 3PaydaysApprentice.com/Podcast    Masterclass https://smartrealestatecoach.com/masterspodcast   3 Paydays Books https://3paydaysbooks.com/podcast   Partners https://smartrealestatecoach.com/podcastresources

Support & Resources→ Support the show on Patreon→ Bayesian Modeling Course (first 2 lessons free)Our theme music is « Good Bayesian », by Baba Brinkman (feat MC Lars and Mega Ran). Check out his awesome workTakeaways:Q: What is a Bayesian occupancy model and what problem does it solve?A: An occupancy model accounts for the fact that you don't always detect a species when surveying for it, especially when the species is rare. A naive count of where you found it underestimates true occupancy. The model adds a repeated-measures component: you visit each site multiple times, and from the pattern of detections vs. non-detections it estimates a detection probability. Matthijs framed it as a zero-inflation structure where the zero-inflation happens at the site level rather than the observation level -- which keeps the model conceptually simple, just a standard GLM with a Bernoulli “is the species here at all?” stacked on top of a detection-rate process.Q: What are Automated Recording Units and why don't traditional occupancy models handle them well?A: ARUs are camera traps and acoustic monitors that record continuously over deployment periods of days, weeks, or months. The data they produce isn't a sequence of discrete human-led surveys; it's a continuous-time observation stream. Traditional occupancy models were designed for the discrete case -- a human visits a site, records yes or no, goes home. With ARUs, the question becomes how to bin or threshold the continuous data without losing the richer signal it actually contains.Q: When should you not reach for occARU?A: When your dataset is large and your survey interval is fine-grained. The bottleneck is Stan's fitting speed -- years of daily count data across many sites will fit slowly. The workaround is to bin coarser (weekly or monthly), which doesn't hurt occupancy estimation at all and only loses some detection-rate resolution. If you're only interested in occupancy, big grouping windows are fine.Full takeaways hereChapters:00:12:14 What is an occupancy model and what problem does it solve?00:16:16 What are Automated Recording Units and why do they need different models?00:18:45 What is the occARU R package and why does it exist?00:23:55 Why does occARU model counts directly rather than binary detection?00:26:38 What does multi-species hierarchical modeling with Gaussian processes look like?00:32:22 How does occARU implement Gaussian processes efficiently?00:41:01 Why are Gaussian processes such a powerful but tricky modeling tool?00:44:11 What is variance decomposition with global-local shrinkage priors?00:49:02 How does occARU leverage recent Stan features for zero-sum constraints?00:57:37 When does within-chain parallelization actually help?01:01:30 How does Monte Carlo integration reduce high Pareto-k values?01:15:27 When does occARU underperform and what's on the roadmap?Thank you to my Patrons for making this episode possible!Links from the show here.

What is the office actually for? It's a question that many organizations are still wrestling with as they balance flexibility, collaboration, employee expectations, and business performance. At Cisco Live, I sat down with Christian Bigsby, Senior Vice President of Workplaces at Cisco, to discuss how the role of the workplace is changing and why measuring success by attendance alone may no longer make sense. Christian shares how Cisco has rethought the relationship between people, place, and technology, bringing together teams that traditionally operated separately to create a more connected workplace experience. Rather than focusing on how many employees are in the office, the conversation centers on the outcomes that become possible when people come together with purpose. We explore how hybrid work has reshaped workplace strategy, why employee experience has become a business priority, and how organizations can create environments that support collaboration, innovation, learning, and culture. Christian also explains why flexibility should not be viewed as a perk but as an important part of helping employees do their best work. The conversation also looks at the growing role of AI in workplace operations. From forecasting occupancy and improving space utilization to helping organizations make smarter decisions about resources and services, AI is helping workplace leaders respond to a level of variability that traditional operating models were never designed to handle. Along the way, Christian offers thoughtful insights on leadership, trust, organizational culture, and why the future workplace may have more in common with a dynamic service than a fixed location. If you've ever wondered whether the future of work is about where people work, how they work, or why they come together in the first place, this conversation offers plenty to think about. What do you believe makes a workplace valuable in 2026, attendance, experience, outcomes, or something else entirely?

The multifamily market closed out May on a note of quiet resilience. Occupancy nudged higher for the week, the year-over-year gap continued to narrow, and leasing activity held steady. The rent side remains the story that operators are watching most closely.As of May 31, the average U.S. occupancy rate was 94.22%, up 4 basis points from the prior week and down 22 basis points from a year ago. The leased percentage was 96.26%, up 5 basis points week over week and down 1.00% from last year. Both metrics have been moving in the right direction on a weekly basis throughout May, and the annual gap, while still present, is smaller than it was at the start of the month.The average number of leases signed was 2.3 per property last week, down 0.1 from the prior week and down 1.0 compared to this time last year. Leasing velocity has held in a narrow band all month. Markets on the higher end of the range are demonstrating that demand is there when supply and pricing are aligned.Net effective rent for new leases was $1,751, up 0.1% from the prior week but down 2.4% from a year ago. RevPAU was $1,650, also up 0.1% week over week and down 2.6% annually. The weekly direction is encouraging, but the annual comparisons reflect the concession activity that pulled rents lower in the second half of May. Closing out the month with two consecutive weeks of flat to positive weekly NER movement is a modest stabilizing signal heading into June.Explore our webpage for more insights and resources:https://bit.ly/Radix_Website

Senior living occupancy is climbing, but the headline numbers only tell part of the story.In this episode, I sit down with Maggie Seybold, Vice President of Customer Insights at WelcomeHome, to explore what the latest data reveals about occupancy, sales performance, and resident retention across thousands of senior living communities. Drawing from WelcomeHome's extensive benchmark data, Maggie explains why average occupancy figures can be misleading, how top-performing operators are generating stronger results with fewer leads, and where many communities are losing prospects in the sales process.The conversation also examines the growing influence of AI on senior living search behavior, the importance of post-tour engagement, and why operators should focus just as much on length of stay as they do on move-ins. Maggie shares practical insights on the metrics that matter most, the strategies high-growth communities are using to increase occupancy, and what operators should be doing now to prepare for the next generation of senior living consumers. WelcomeHome Data Report Link.

Own Your Results. Own the Returns. Why the Smartest Accredited Investors Are Going All-In on Hotels.   In this episode of Abundance Mindset, Vinney "Smile" Chopra joins co-host Gualter Amarelo for a raw, real, and revelation-packed conversation about what it truly means to OWN your results — in business, in investing, and in life.   Vinney pulls back the curtain on his personal pivot from 7,500+ multifamily units to a laser focus on hospitality — and why he believes hotel rooms are apartment units on steroids.   Here's why: unlike a 12-month lease, a hotel "lease" is signed every single night — with up to five different price points depending on supply, demand, and local events. When a big concert or conference hits your market, your nightly rate can 4X overnight. That's a level of dynamic cash flow multifamily simply cannot match.   In this episode, you'll discover:

 “What if the most resilient asset class in real estate has been hiding in plain sight for decades?” In this episode, Nasir Ali shares how his family leveraged over 45 years of manufactured housing expertise, spanning 10,000+ pads and institutional-scale portfolios valued in the billions, to transform underperforming communities into stable, high-yield, inflation-resistant assets. Ali breaks down why manufactured housing communities outperform many traditional asset classes during both strong and weak economies, how his vertically integrated model solves affordability and occupancy challenges, and why tenant retention in this space creates a fundamentally different business model than multifamily. He also dives into market cycles, geopolitical risks, commercial real estate defaults, and why upcoming economic shifts may create major opportunities for investors prepared to act creatively. From generational knowledge transfer and operational experience to financing structures, value-add strategies, and the evolving institutional demand for manufactured housing, this episode delivers a masterclass on one of the most misunderstood sectors in real estate investing today. 5 Key Takeaways to learn from this episodeManufactured housing thrives in both strong and weak economies As the most affordable form of housing, demand often increases during economic downturns. Occupancy growth creates massive value-add opportunities Many communities remain under-occupied due to installation and financing barriers that operators can solve strategically. Vertically integrated operations increase profitability Combining community ownership, home sales, financing, and management creates multiple profit centers within one asset. Tenant retention is fundamentally different from multifamily Residents often own their homes, reducing turnover and many traditional landlord headaches. Economic downturns create opportunities for prepared investors Creative financing, seller financing, and distressed opportunities may become more common as market conditions tighten. 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.

Today we're looking at the Houston multifamily market, and in particular, the pressure that is building in the middle of the market. We are talking about Houston specifically. But you can take the lessons from Houston and apply them to other markets in the US and probably elsewhere.When people talk about apartment fundamentals, they often speak in broad averages. Occupancy is up. Rent is down. Absorption is positive. Cap rates are stable. But averages can hide a lot of insights.The latest Q1 2026 multifamily report from Colliers shows Houston sitting at 90.4 percent occupancy. That number was unchanged from the prior quarter, and it was actually up from 88.6 percent a year earlier. On the surface, that sounds reasonably healthy.But when you look under the hood, the story becomes more nuanced.Houston delivered 6,469 new apartment units in the first quarter. That is a big number. At the same time, the market absorbed 3,578 units. So demand was positive, but it did not keep pace with new supply. That is the first warning sign.Now, supply and demand do not affect every property the same way. The Colliers data shows that Class A properties absorbed 3,246 units in the quarter. Class C properties absorbed 678 units. Even Class D had positive absorption of 413 units.But Class B properties recorded negative absorption of 759 units.That is the story.Class B is getting squeezed from both directions.-----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)
