Jack Cohen is a legend in commercial real estate. He is the DARK KNIGHT in commercial real estate. He was the former CEO of Cohen Financial for 25 years. Cohen Financial was one of the largest commercial real estate lenders in the nation. Jack chats about his 40+ year history in commercial real estate investing and lending. He brings interesting questions to the table: “When investors look at their investment processes, as well as the investments that they made during 2019-2024, what have they learned? What worked? What would they have done differently? ALL of us backed projects and sponsors during this period that ultimately played out very differently than we thought. Some played out better, some played out worse, than we thought. What can we learn from this? Can we finally agree that cash flow matters? That our space – Commercial – is defined by income producing real estate. That means we actually must underwrite tenants' capacity to pay rent as well as a sponsor's ability to manage expenses properly. SOFR has gone up and today the marketplace is mostly financed with short term floating rate loans. Did we not learn this lesson in the 1990's with the failure of Long-Term Capital Management? The punchline is to match duration of assets with liabilities. Borrowing short on a long-term asset has its risks.” WOW!!

These bridge loans are quirky…because all loan documents initially agreed upon (between lender attorney and borrower attorney) are like snowflakes.

Property taxes, on commercial real estate, is usually the largest line item operating expense on your profit and loss statement.

Michael gives you insight on what his team focuses on when buying apartments in today's wacky market. Michael is not soliciting for capital; but just gives an example on what type of pricing discount some buyers are able to achieve. Certain sellers are chasing a higher price on some unproven buying groups. If you are a seller, do you want to always go with the highest price…or Are you counting on certainty to close? Most realistic sellers, in today's market, need certainty to close. Are you interested in learning more about how Multifamily Syndications work?

Are there too many general partner syndicators and not enough investors? Within the last 10 years…we have observed a lot of apartment transactions closed with the syndication investment model. As you know, a syndication model is like flying in an airplane. Pilot and passengers both perform critical roles to make a flight successful. The pilots are in the front of the airplane- they are the general partners- they are putting the deals together and making the operational decisions. The passengers in the back of the airplane… they are the limited partners. They are the investors in the deals that bring the bulk of the equity. Today, we have too many pilots and not enough passengers. We need more passengers (equity investors) to run a successful airline (apartment syndication.)

Joey Tumminello with Marcus & Millichap's Institutional Property Advisors Group shares his insight on what the “smart buyers” (REIT's, pension funds, life insurance and large family offices) are buying or NOT buying. Institutional-grade real estate is Class A or Class A+ property that generally has minimal risk of deteriorating or becoming obsolete during the investment holding period because the properties are brand new, have state-of-the-art systems, and the best amenities. These type of buyers set the pace for the entire industry with buying or selling.   To contact Joey Tumminello: jtumminello@ipausa.com   Are you interested in learning more about how Multifamily Syndications work?

In the Dallas/ Fort Worth market, Apartment sales volume is down 75-80% from just 12 months ago. In smaller markets, volume is probably down 80%+. Yes…interest rates are up, but if you are going to buy commercial real estate, most investors prefer multifamily. Why? 1) Fannie and Freddie are your backstop with financing and can offer longer fixed rate terms 2) rents can reset to the market every 12 months 3) you can change market value by increasing your NOI 4) personal tax advantages. If you are new to multifamily, this could be the time to put together your team (equity, debt, listing brokers, real estate attorney, etc.) for the NEXT cycle.

The world has changed over the past 2 years. When the COVID pandemic hit, people shifted from working in large office spaces into working from home, fully-remote. This has led to distortion in the real estate market as a whole. Most office spaces are left unoccupied thereby effectively reducing revenue. Limited Partners are left with a clear reason to focus on investing in housing which provides the space needed for working and living at the same time.In today's podcast episode we interview Michael Becker, Principal at SPI (Strategic Property Investment) Advisory, LLC. Today's topics are focused on what excites Michael about the Texas real estate market, finding opportunities in workforce housing spaces, the biggest mistakes a Limited Partner can make and how to avoid it, and Michael's advice for Limited Partners.Read the FULL EPISODE SUMMARY HERE!

I am not utilizing what I have at my disposal, all the relationships, connections, and knowledge that I have.  So, I decided to jump now and take the risk, or else I might regret it later.  [12:55] If you're a syndicator, two things are most important that drive revenue. You've got to find deals and you've got to find the money. You have to talk to investors and brokers, look for deals, then everything else is noise.  [38:11] One thing that we did really well is that every time we had a transaction, we would do a post mortem on it. We would go back on what worked well and what's not, what should we adapt and change and it's a matter of finding better ways of doing things along the way. SUMMARY OF BUSINESS:SPI Advisory specializes in repositioning multi-family assets.
