Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Scott Lurie, a Milwaukee-based investor, developer, lender, and syndicator who has scaled from single-family flips to $700M+ in AUM. Scott explains how discipline, conservative leverage, and a long-term mindset helped him not only survive but aggressively buy through the Great Recession—including a 410-unit acquisition for $9K per door. He shares why he focuses on value-add industrial and multifamily development today, how he underwrites and syndicates vacant industrial buildings, and why transparency and investor trust are more important than ever in 2025. Scott also breaks down his syndication philosophy, the pitfalls created by “cowboy” operators, and his belief that real estate success comes from 20 years of consistent, disciplined work.

Richard McGirr shares why facts alone don't move investors and how a well-crafted personal story can radically improve your marketing and capital raising. He walks through Russell Brunson's Epiphany Bridge script, showing how it builds on the classic Hero's Journey to turn your backstory, “wall,” and breakthrough into a compelling narrative that breaks your audience's false beliefs. Using his own journey—from a collapsed software company and wiped-out income to discovering real estate and reworking a failed Property Llama webinar into a six-figure sales engine—Richard illustrates how story-based presentations can dramatically increase conversions. He closes by challenging listeners to define their own “why,” clarify the moment they realized their old plan wouldn't work, and use that narrative framework in every investor conversation, not just on webinars.

Richard McGirr interviews Hiten Samtani, founder of 1031 Media and creator of The Promote. Hiten shares how his background running the newsroom at The Real Deal shaped his approach to storytelling, why he built a media company that treats real estate like the character-driven, high-stakes world it truly is, and how entertainment is the secret ingredient missing from most industry coverage. He and Richard dig into niche media strategy, viral growth, CRE culture, and why “knowing your audience” is the only real moat. They also explore Twitter/Retweet's rise and collapse, the LP Whisperer saga, the structural issues behind traveling HFCs in Texas, and the massive power shift happening as Blackstone and other institutions move aggressively into retail capital. Hiten explains why syndicators face new competition, why pref is dominating the capital stack, and how storytelling shapes who wins attention—and deal flow.

John Chang shares why commercial real estate data has become less reliable following the DOJ's settlement with RealPage, and how losing access to more precise rent and vacancy feeds weakens investor decision-making. He walks through the market's wildly shifting expectations for a potential December 10 Fed rate cut and argues that political pressure and policy uncertainty—not the cost of capital—are what's really slowing hiring and expansion. John then looks at how tariffs, tight immigration policies, and a softer job market could temporarily dampen household formation and apartment absorption in 2026 across apartments, retail, and industrial, while creating pent-up demand that returns later in the cycle. Finally, he explains why investors who can secure positive leverage today—higher cap rates against moderating debt costs—may be better positioned for the next upswing if they buy before sentiment and competition turn.

John Casmon interviews Ed Mathews, a former Silicon Valley tech executive who walked away from a high-flying software career to build a more family-centered, freedom-focused life through real estate. Ed shares how missing too many “18 summers” with his daughters pushed him to leave DocuSign and go all-in on multifamily after seven years of flipping houses and small-building rehabs on the side. He explains how he scaled his Connecticut portfolio by finding “rock star” contractors through trade-to-trade referrals, building tight systems, and using process—not heroics—to let average people perform exceptionally well. Ed details why he prefers long-term residents over constant value-add turnover, how he achieved 4.2-year average stays, and why responsiveness, respect, and presence on site drive both mission and NOI. The conversation closes with his shift away from property management toward asset management, his expansion into AI-powered operations, and the launch of both a debt fund and private equity fund to pursue larger 150-unit-plus acquisitions.

Matt Faircloth interviews Robert Beardsley, partner at Lone Star Capital (LSCRE), about navigating the current multifamily cycle, surviving 2021–2022 acquisitions, and why the most resilient opportunities today hinge on debt structure, affordability incentives, and supply-constrained submarkets. Robert breaks down how Texas multifamily has shifted from a “prices only go up” environment to a more balanced but still competitive market, where Class B suburban assets with little new supply outperform shiny Class A developments offering heavy concessions. He explains how LS CRE avoided major distress by minimizing bridge debt exposure and shifting early into affordable-housing-driven acquisitions—leveraging tax-exemption partnerships with housing authorities to create stable NOI without risky value-add pushes. The two dive deep into rising treasuries, soft-landing odds, rent-to-income resilience, recession risk, Texas HB 21 fallout, and why hundreds of improperly structured tax-exemption deals may implode when exemptions expire in 2026.

Pascal Wagner interviews Bronson Hill, founder of Bronson Equity, about how LPs can invest confidently in today's noisy and divided market. Bronson shares how raising $50M+ across multifamily, oil & gas, and alternative real estate has shaped the way he vets operators, evaluates risk, and structures deals more conservatively after recent market challenges. He explains why understanding your true investment objective—cash flow, tax benefits, or equity growth—is the key to picking the right deal, and why due diligence should start with the market, then the operator, then the deal. Bronson also walks through his shift toward more control as a GP, including his Altadena modular housing redevelopment project after the California wildfires, and why debt funds and royalties are gaining traction with LPs seeking stability and monthly income.

Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Thomas A. Kucharski, president and CEO of Invest Buffalo Niagara, about how his organization has helped transform Western New York from a legacy manufacturing market into a growing tech and advanced industry hub. He explains how their team centralizes regional data, builds commercial listing systems, and acts as a neutral connector to incentives, infrastructure, and workforce programs—without taking commissions—so companies can de-risk expansions and relocations. Tom shares case studies ranging from Odoo's tech expansion and Milk-Bone's reinvestment to Tesla's solar facility and large industrial site redevelopments on former steel mill land, highlighting the importance of shovel-ready sites and public–private collaboration. He also digs into cross-border Canadian investment, tariffs, and why developers and local businesses “pay to play” not for sweetheart deals, but to collectively grow jobs, investment, and the regional tax base.

Asian stocks extended their gains into a third day, tracking advances on Wall Street as weak US consumer data lifted bets on a Federal Reserve interest-rate cut next month. MSCI's regional stock gauge rose 1.2%. Almost all of the 11 industry groups in the index advanced, with as many as three stocks gaining for every one that fell. That came after US benchmarks posted their third day of gains. Chinese equities opened steady as Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. shares fell as much as 2.8% in Hong Kong trading after its earnings. For more outlook on the markets, we spoke to William Bratton, Head of Cash Equity Research for the Asia Pacific at BNP Paribas. Plus - US consumer confidence slid in November by the most in seven months on growing anxiety about the labor market and the economy. The Conference Board's gauge decreased 6.8 points to 88.7, data out Tuesday showed. The figure was weaker than all estimates in a Bloomberg survey of economists. A gauge of expectations for the next six months declined to the lowest level since April, while a measure of present conditions slumped to a more than one-year low. And in regards to individual stock movers, Alphabet Inc. came off session highs that had driven the search giant closer to a $4 trillion valuation, after The Information reported that Meta Platforms Inc. is in talks to use Google's AI chips. Shares of Nvidia Corp., Advanced Micro Devices Inc. and Oracle Corp. remained lower. We get perspective from Jim Worden, CIO, The Wealth Consulting Group.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Matt Faircloth sits down with Ben Lapidus for a deep-dive into the origins, evolution, and future of the Best Ever Conference as it approaches its tenth year. Ben shares how a chance Skillshare class with Joe Fairless in 2012 sparked their partnership, how the conference grew from 175 attendees to a premier commercial real estate event, and why it remains intentionally focused on capital-raising and syndication. They walk through standout memories, the impact BEC has had on major companies in the space, and what attendees can expect from the 2026 agenda. The conversation also previews this year's speakers, Pitch Slam details, and why the event consistently delivers high-value networking.

John Casmon interviews James Faillettaz, a Minneapolis-based investor who scaled from five units in a spreadsheet to restructuring an entire real estate company after an ambitious early strategy nearly collapsed. James shares how he over-hired, over-built, and over-extended while trying to operate like a Silicon Valley startup—then completely rebuilt his structure with the help of mentors and mastermind groups. He walks through how he created new momentum by taking over distressed properties through master lease with purchase option agreements, ultimately acquiring 101 units with zero money down. James also breaks down the value he brings to sellers, how he structures creative deals, and the lessons he learned from reinventing his model the hard way.

Matt Faircloth interviews Christian Macellari, Head of Acquisitions and CIO at RSN Property Group, about how their team has grown more than 20% in the past 15–16 months by staying disciplined, data-driven, and relentless in sourcing opportunities. Christian explains how RSN underwrites roughly 400 deals a year to close just a few, why top-down market conviction matters before drilling into individual assets, and how their team blends off-market outreach, broker relationships, and distressed-debt conversations to secure deals. He also breaks down RSN's buy box, when they'll consider heavy-lift opportunities, and why Chicago is the market he “loves to hate.” Christian and Matt wrap by discussing JV/co-GP equity structures and how operators can realistically partner with larger institutional groups.

Pascal Wagner breaks down how the IRS categorizes income into three buckets—active, portfolio, and passive—and why high-income earners often misunderstand how tax write-offs actually work. He explains common investor mistakes, including expecting real estate depreciation to offset W-2 or stock-market gains, and shares the simple rule that changed his entire tax strategy: “you can only offset like with like.” Pascal also walks through exceptions such as oil and gas, real estate professional status, and opportunity zones, along with how wealthy investors intentionally shift income toward passive buckets for long-term tax efficiency. This episode teaches investors to stop chasing IRRs and start choosing deals based on what problem they solve in their tax plan.

Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Jeremy Barker, a former firefighter turned serial entrepreneur who has built a nine-figure net worth through value-add industrial and office deals. Jeremy walks through how he bought nearly vacant, 100,000+ square foot assets, pre-leased them during due diligence, and created tens of millions in equity with very little cash out of pocket. He shares how going bankrupt twice, living in his truck, and then rebuilding through Murphy Door and commercial real estate reshaped his relationship with money, risk, and failure. Jeremy also talks about chasing “shiny objects” like short-term rentals, the hidden costs of wealth, and the challenge of raising grounded kids when your life includes private planes and big headlines.

But we got 4 signals in a cluster at the end of 2021, ahead of the 2022 bear market. So 4 is enough, if the market is inclined to live up to this warning.

From eight team members with one vision to 700 young adults gathering every Tuesday night, this episode reveals how faith, culture, and authenticity sparked a movement across the islands. Pastor Mike Kai, along with Bekah and Elijah, breaks down what it takes to build revival from the ground up and why it's not hype, it's alignment. This week on the Pound for Pound Podcast, get a powerful, behind-the-scenes conversation about one of the most exciting spiritual movements happening in Hawaii today. What began as a small group of committed young adults has quickly multiplied into more than 700 gathering every Tuesday night across multiple campuses. In this episode, the three unpack the heart, structure, and spiritual alignment behind the revival stirring in the islands. They discuss the early days, the intentional discipleship system, the courage to have hard conversations, and how vulnerability—paired with vision—has created a culture where young adults feel seen, known, and hungry for God. Pastor Mike also dives into the importance of spiritual covering, senior leadership endorsement, and stewarding momentum without falling into hype. Bekah and Elijah share practical insights for any ministry or leader dreaming of reaching the next generation. This episode is part testimony, part blueprint, and all inspiration. ____________________________ 00:00 — Pastor Mike opens the episode, introduces the new Aloha & Amen brand, and shares about his latest book Blow Your Mind, centered on transforming your thoughts to transform your life. 01:04 — Introduction of Bekah and Elijah and the topic: the rise of Inspire Church's young adult ministry, now averaging 700 every Tuesday. 02:51 — Elijah shares how the movement has spread—mainly through social media, their Dream Team, and prioritizing discipleship, relatability, and vulnerability. 04:09 — Bekah explains that what's happening is undeniably a move of God. Other ministries have even reached out to ask what they're doing differently. Her answer: you need a strong team—you can't do it alone. 05:20 — Vision alignment: the original team of eight shared the same burning desire. They implemented discipleship, identified strengths, and embraced vulnerability—something many young adults deeply relate to. 07:49 — Elijah shares on alignment and how the core team is unified around seeing young adults transformed. 09:00 — Bekah talks about teaching every new leader Inspire Church's culture and vision. Weekly team rally happens one hour before service to keep everyone aligned. 11:25 — Bekah mentions their current team read, Undercover by John Bevere, to help leaders shepherd those under their care. 11:57 — Elijah reflects on tough early conversations that sharpened his leadership—and how Bekah excels in navigating them. 13:25 — Advice to other ministries: Build a solid team first. Use social media strategically. And pastors should publicly endorse the young adult ministry. 17:30 — The need for spiritual fathers and mothers who champion and guide young leaders. 19:11 — Pastor Mike values bringing people who already carry the fire. Shares the analogy: "It's easier to steer a moving car than push a parked one." 22:01 — Bekah shares her dream: a revival at UH Mānoa—specifically in the baseball stadium. Elijah dreams of collaborations with other churches. Three YA ministries now exist: Honolulu, Mililani, and Waikele. 28:30 — Pastor Mike notes that the greatest move of God right now is among those under 35. 30:07 — Pastor Mike recounts a conversation on strategy: it can't just be hype—people must be discipled and prepared. Elijah notes the importance of connect groups. 32:55 — Bekah explains why YA nights run from 6–9 p.m. and why they provide food: they want to meet young adults where they're at—many coming from work or traffic. 35:42 — Elijah shares the joy of seeing men attend alone and find brotherhood. 36:37 — Bekah recalls Pastor Tommy's warning: revival can be killed by selfishness, comparison, and familiarity. 40:00 — Bekah uses a "stew pot" analogy: one person bringing poison can ruin the whole pot. 42:33 — Pastor Mike reflects on the early days when he required Bekah and Elijah to be faithful in small things before entrusting them with more. 45:23 — Elijah thanks Pastor Mike for his leadership. 45:44 — Pastor Mike closes by highlighting Blow Your Mind, the new Aloha & Amen wear, the Nov. 18 webinar, and encourages listeners to like, subscribe, and check out the new Great Life Planner. _____________________________ Find leadership books, master classes, and more resources at: https://www.MikeKai.Tv Inspire Collective: Learn more about how you can be an influencer in your own communities and businesses, visit: https://www.inspirecollective.com To partner with me in bringing the word of God around the world, click here: https://raisedonors.com/poundforpoundministries/partner ———— Stay Connected! ———— Website: http://www.MikeKai.tv https://www.instagram.com/mikekai https://twitter.com/Mike_Kai https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-kai

Richard McGirr breaks down why most syndicators struggle with online ads and explains why cold traffic is the last place capital raisers should be spending money. He argues that private investments require a level of trust that interruptive ads can't establish, and that most managers burn cash chasing low-quality Facebook leads with terrible conversion. Instead, Richard outlines a hierarchy of “trust-based traffic,” from podcast tours that borrow a host's credibility to scalable paid influencer webinars that transfer trust at a fraction of the cost of ads. He walks through real-world examples—from George Foreman to Proactiv—to show how borrowed brands can outperform traditional marketing by orders of magnitude, especially in capital-raising.

John Chang breaks down the latest economic and market signals after a week of meetings in New York City. He explains how the temporary government funding deal both alleviates short-term pressures and extends broader uncertainty—impacting GDP, consumer spending, and investor sentiment. John also unpacks capital flows, interest-rate volatility tied to upcoming Federal Reserve changes, and why debt availability is improving even as risk factors persist. He contrasts Sun Belt oversupply with strong performance in low-construction markets, and ultimately argues that today's elevated cap rates and stable debt costs may represent a rare “sweet spot” for long-term investors.

John Casmon interviews Travis Watts, a long-time Best Ever contributor, full-time LP, and author of Passive Investor Tips. They dig into where we are in the multifamily market cycle, why the last three-plus years have felt so painful for LPs, and why Travis believes we're entering a true recovery phase that could mirror the opportunity of buying in 2010. Travis shares how investing consistently from 2015 to today—even with about 30% of his portfolio “compromised”—still leaves him well ahead of where he'd be if he'd stayed on the sidelines. He and John also break down operator selection, capital calls, fixed vs. floating debt, and how to align your investment strategy with your life stage and risk tolerance.

Matt Faircloth interviews Todd Dexheimer, a multifamily and assisted living operator focused on steady, fundamentals-driven investing. Todd breaks down how he thinks about market selection—favoring job and population growth, sane rent-to-income ratios, and controlled new supply over “sexy” boom-bust metros. He then walks through a massive 99-unit value-add on the Mississippi River in the Twin Cities, where he transformed a mismanaged, dated asset into a lifestyle property with standout amenities and stronger rents. Todd also shares the hard lessons from scaling into assisted living—losing seven figures before dialing in operations—and why controlling payroll, culture, and leadership are everything in that business.

Pascal Wagner interviews Evan Polaski, digging into what 18 years across retail and multifamily have taught him about raising capital through multiple market cycles. Evan shares what it was really like trying to raise an institutional fund heading into the 2008 crisis, how the “denominator effect” froze commitments, and why that experience still shapes his view of risk today. He contrasts institutional and retail LP behavior, explains why he's gravitated back to necessity-based retail, and calls out the dangers of marketers-turned-operators who chase AUM instead of disciplined deals. Evan also walks through how he evaluates sponsors as an LP himself, what “conservative underwriting” should actually mean, and the specific questions passive investors need to ask about performance versus the original pro forma.

Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Steven Wear, chief marketing officer of SSSE, about the firm's nationwide self-storage investments and how it's evolving the model through creative financing and energy innovation. Steven explains how SSSE focuses on secondary and tertiary markets to avoid oversaturation and zoning risks, and why they advocate for local moratoriums once they've entered a market. He discusses using substitution of collateral strategies to maximize returns on seller-financed deals, creating a self-sustaining capital engine. The conversation also explores how SSSE integrates solar power, geothermal, and potential data center partnerships to turn storage facilities into power-generating assets, revealing a forward-thinking vision for the future of self-storage.

Richard McGirr interviews Spencer Carpenter, Best Ever CRE's guest booker and founder of Outlier Audio, to workshop networking strategy for the Best Ever Conference. They dig into how to define an ideal client profile, sell outcome-based podcast campaigns instead of one-off bookings, and qualify prospects quickly so Spencer only offers high-touch strategy sessions to the right fits. Spencer and Richard also explore building simple but effective lead magnets and email drips, using click tracking to prioritize follow-ups, and reframing conference networking as pipeline-building instead of aimless small talk. Along the way, they touch on how LPs and operators alike can show up to conferences with a clear thesis, buy box, and intentional follow-up plan.

Richard McGirr interviews Ryan Floyd, a portfolio manager at Barca Capital, about why thoughtful, authentic investor relations is one of the most overlooked levers for raising and retaining capital. Ryan explains how most IR decks fail by avoiding honest discussion of what isn't working, over-summarizing numbers in text, and underusing long-term, segment-level data that actually helps investors make decisions. He shares why investors crave more history, more segmentation, and better-designed charts in the spirit of Edward Tufte, rather than generic bullet points and boilerplate language. Richard and Ryan then connect these ideas back to private real estate and funds, showing how storytelling, regular calls, and transparent reporting build deeper investor trust and dramatically increase repeat investments.

John Chang breaks down the Urban Land Institute and PwC 2026 Emerging Trends report and what it means for commercial real estate investors. He walks through ULI's top ten markets to watch, including Dallas, Miami, Houston, Northern New Jersey, Tampa, and Phoenix, highlighting where overdevelopment, insurance costs, and local policy risks could pressure performance versus where solid job and demographic trends still support growth. John also explores why he favors sectors like seniors housing, medical office, workforce apartments, necessity-based neighborhood retail, and small bay industrial over buzzy data centers, especially given AI's long runway and the heavy power demands of server facilities. He wraps up by explaining why today's combination of compressed lending spreads, elevated cap rates, and a coming construction slowdown could set investors up for strong risk-adjusted returns over the next three to five years if they position carefully now.
