On this episode of Next Level CRE, Matt Faircloth interviews Cameron Herold, founder of the COO Alliance and former COO of 1-800-GOT-JUNK. They dive into the nuanced roles of CEO versus COO, and why so many entrepreneurs misunderstand what they truly need in a second-in-command. Cameron shares how building 1-800-GOT-JUNK into a globally admired brand came from creating a strong culture, leveraging free PR, and obsessively developing a business “flywheel.” He also offers tactical advice for hiring, building trust between co-leaders, and crafting a vivid vision that unites and inspires teams—even at the early stages of growth.

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan sits down with Eric Burns, founder of Flowers Capital and a former firefighter turned full-time capital raiser. Eric shares his journey from managing student rentals and duplex renovations to raising funds for large-scale commercial real estate deals—an evolution fueled by burnout, curiosity, and a passion for helping others create passive income. Eric's real estate story began at the firehouse, where side hustles were common. He jumped into his first student rental without formal training, but with a clear goal: to build financial security outside of his career. Through direct mail and hands-on management, Eric gained valuable experience as a landlord. Over time, though, he found himself trading time for money and recognized it wasn't sustainable. That led him to masterminds, mentorship, and eventually commercial investing. Jonathan and Eric dig into how capital raising became Eric's focus and how he approaches it both as an educator and a steward. Eric walks through the importance of partnering with trustworthy operators, managing investor expectations, and matching each opportunity to an investor's goals and risk tolerance. They also cover how mastermind communities helped Eric sharpen his skills and find alignment with top-tier operators. Throughout the conversation, Eric emphasizes relationships over returns. Whether it's vetting sponsors, working with new passive investors, or evaluating deals, he's focused on long-term partnerships. He also shares why transparency, responsiveness, and investor education are at the core of how he does business. This episode offers a clear window into the real work behind raising capital and the mindset shifts that turn investing into a long-term lifestyle strategy. For anyone considering a move from active to passive investing or exploring syndications for the first time, this episode offers grounded advice from someone who has walked both paths. In this episode, you will hear: Moving from hands-on rentals to raising capital for commercial deals Choosing the right mastermind and finding trustworthy mentors Navigating early landlord lessons and learning to lead with service Evaluating sponsors based on integrity, not just performance Managing investor relationships through education and transparency Building passive income without sacrificing trust or long-term alignment Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Top 3 Most Common New Lender Mistakes - #279 In this episode of the Private Lenders Podcast, hosts Chris and Jason break down the three most frequent mistakes new private lenders make—and how to avoid them for long-term success.

This week, we're revisiting another standout episode from our Best Of series, featuring guest Ryan Chaw.Ryan Chaw is a pharmacist turned real estate investor. By investing in 15 properties while working his full-time job, in August 2023 he was able to replace his pharmacist salary and walk away from his job to pursue real estate investing full-time. Growing up, Ryan saw the power of real estate investing from his Grandpa, who was able to acquire rentals and was able to pay for Ryan's college tuition. Wanting to follow in his footsteps, Ryan set out to acquire 1 property per year and utility the rent by the room model. With properties now spanning 3 states, Ryan is able to double or triple traditional rental income in competitive markets with his co-living & student housing model.Follow Ryan

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show, Chad Griffiths welcomes returning guest Deren Huang, an industrial investor based in Tulsa. The interview kicks off with a fun lightning-round game where Deren challenges Chad to blindly rank various investments (from gold and Bitcoin to Olive Garden leases and drive-thru wedding chapels). The playful setup leads to insightful discussions about risk tolerance, asset classes, and how personal experience and logic influence investment preferences. Chad consistently favors predictable, scalable investments like the S&P 500 and industrial real estate, while expressing skepticism about novelty concepts and collectibles like vintage guitars.The conversation then shifts into a deeper dive on Darren's evolution from owning over 100 single-family homes to now managing over 200,000 square feet of industrial real estate in Tulsa. He shares candid lessons from early mistakes (such as overvaluing clear height at the expense of location and functionality) and emphasizes key attributes like geometry, site coverage, and access. Darren outlines his buy-box, investment strategy, and how he creatively financed properties during volatile interest rate shifts. He also discusses his transition from residential to industrial, the operational benefits of triple net leases, and his plans to pursue infill development. The interview closes with thoughtful advice to aspiring investors: start by learning the fundamentals, get to know your local market, and always remember that even in commercial real estate, you're still dealing with people.Connect with Deren:Website: https://www.derenhuang.com/tulsaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/derenhuang--

Michael Blank is a real estate investor, author, speaker, and CEO of Nighthawk Equity. He's one of the leading authorities on apartment investing and financial freedom through multifamily real estate. With over $300 million in assets under management and author of Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing, Michael helps investors and aspiring entrepreneurs escape the W-2 grind by acquiring multifamily properties and building sustainable income streams.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Michael transitioned from tech to restaurants to real estate after early business setbacks during the 2000 and 2008 market crashes. Multifamily real estate offers superior risk-adjusted returns due to forced appreciation and operational control compared to single-family homes. Market sentiment is often wrong—investors must look past fear-based headlines and focus on long-term fundamentals. Today's market offers lower leverage, better pricing, and a strong long-term demand outlook for multifamily housing. Education and building sophistication as an investor is critical to identifying real opportunities, especially in volatile markets.     Topics Michael's Journey into Multifamily Started in corporate software; was part of a major IPO just before the 2000 tech bubble crash. Lost significant capital in restaurant franchises during the 2008 recession. Began flipping houses before discovering multifamily through a 12-unit deal in DC that eventually sparked his passion for apartments. Built Nighthawk Equity and an education platform to help others achieve financial freedom through apartment investing. Understanding Risk-Adjusted Returns Multifamily offers superior downside protection compared to many other asset classes. Operational risk (property management) can be mitigated by using professional managers. Market risk can be managed by focusing on NOI-driven valuation rather than relying on market appreciation like single-family. Investors must evaluate underwriting assumptions—rent growth, vacancy, CapEx reserves, and debt terms—to fully assess risk. Why Multifamily is Attractively Priced Today Current deals are 30% below 2021 peak prices. Leverage is lower and more conservative, reducing financial risk. Interest rates are flat or declining, improving the outlook for new acquisitions. Long-term demand remains strong due to the lack of new affordable housing supply. Investor Sentiment and Sophistication Market sentiment swings often don't reflect true investment fundamentals. Sophisticated investors like institutions are returning to the market now while many retail investors remain fearful. Successful investing requires becoming a student of the market and evaluating data beyond media headlines. Raising Capital in Today's Market Focuses heavily on education to help investors understand why now may be a great buying window. Transparency, data-driven insights, and regular communication are key to re-engaging cautious investors. Building long-term relationships and trust remains critical to capital raising success.

Everyone's nervous. Rates are high, the news is loud, and most investors are sitting on the sidelines. But I'm still buying.

But smart investors learn to play the market they're in. Tune in and start thinking like an operator.

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Mark Khuri, co-founder of SMK Capital Management, for a focused conversation on passive investing, diversification, and risk reduction through strategic fund structures. With over 20 years of experience, Mark has developed a methodical approach to building real estate portfolios that emphasizes steady returns, low volatility, and long-term growth. Mark shares how he began his career working on residential value-add deals, managing flips and rentals alongside family. As he gained experience, he realized that owning and managing properties directly wasn't sustainable at scale. That realization led to the creation of SMK Capital, which now specializes in private real estate funds that span multiple asset types, operators, and geographic markets. Jonathan and Mark examine how this model enables investors to spread risk across a range of properties, including mobile home parks, triple-net lease retail, and industrial, and discuss why diversification can lead to more stable returns over time. They also touch on the benefits of private lending and fixed-income strategies, which help generate early-stage cash flow while larger value-add projects are being stabilized. A key part of SMK's success hinges on operator selection. Mark outlines the firm's criteria for choosing partners, from their communication style to track record and approach to capital management. He emphasizes the need for transparency and alignment, noting that clear expectations and regular updates are essential to building trust with investors. Jonathan shares his insights on what passive investors should consider when evaluating both funds and single-asset syndications. The discussion provides a clear framework for those seeking more consistency in their returns and less exposure to operational risk. You'll come away with a better understanding of how fund structures work, how to evaluate sponsors and investment opportunities, and how smaller, under-the-radar assets can complement more traditional real estate investments. For anyone looking to build wealth through passive real estate, this episode is a practical guide to lowering risk and thinking more holistically about long-term investing. In this episode, you will hear: Building wealth through diversification across assets, locations, and timelines Shifting from residential investing to private commercial funds Why funds can outperform single-asset syndications in volatile markets Using private debt and fixed-income strategies to generate early cash flow Real-world examples of risk mitigation across asset classes Evaluating operators and building trust through consistent communication How fund structures support passive investors with long-term goals Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.
