In this episode of the Big Mike Fund Podcast, host Mike Zlotnik ("The Big Mike") sits down with Ryan E. Wynkoop, Director of Capital Markets at Tempo. Living on Folly Beach outside Charleston, South Carolina, Ryan brings a unique perspective on demographic growth in the Southeast and hands-on experience working directly with real estate investors.

Mike and Ryan discuss how investors should navigate current economic noise, interest rate fluctuations, and geopolitical uncertainty. Instead of pulling out of the market or succumbing to analysis paralysis, Ryan introduces the strategic concept of "going small"—writing smaller, more frequent checks into individual, highly transparent deals rather than open-ended funds.

They also evaluate high-hype trends like speculative AI data center developments versus grounded, cash-flowing asset classes like medical office properties, triple-net (NNN) industrial, and open-air retail. Drawing analogies to NFL ball-control strategies and time of possession, they highlight why systematic "singles and doubles" outperform risky home-run chasing in wealth creation.

In this episode of The Big Mike Fund Podcast, host Mike Zlotnik ("Big Mike") sits down with Sequoya Borgman, CEO and Founder of Borgman Capital. Sequoya shares insights from two decades in big international public accounting and 10+ years leading Borgman Capital through 22 company acquisitions and extensive industrial real estate investments.

They dive deep into the mechanics of NNN sale-leasebacks, explaining how decoupling real estate from lower middle-market business acquisitions boosts deal IRR while reducing equity and debt requirements. The discussion covers middle-market EBITDA multiples (5x–8x), industrial cap rates (7%–8.5%+), deal structuring using Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) with 80/20 splits, and how AI trends are influencing real estate and manufacturing investment decisions.

In this episode of the Big Mike Fund Podcast, host Mike Zlotnik welcomes Ash Patel, founder of Beyond Multifamily, to discuss why non-residential commercial real estate is generating superior returns compared to over-crowded multifamily markets.

Ash details his core strategy for targeting 18–20% cash-on-cash returns by acquiring unanchored retail strip malls, repositioning gross leases, and unlocking value by selling off unused parking lot outparcels. Big Mike and Ash also examine the post-COVID shift toward suburban office space—explaining why high-vacancy suburban office parks offer massive cash-flow potential when reconfigured for small 2- to 3-person business tenants.

In this episode of The Big Mike Fund Podcast, host Mike Zlotnik welcomes back real estate investor Lane Kawaoka to discuss the current climate in commercial real estate. Together, they analyze the 30% to 40% valuation corrections across major sunbelt markets like Phoenix and Austin, the squeeze caused by elevated holding costs and interest rates, and the challenges of raising capital in a cautious market. Lane and Mike also explore alternative strategies, including small-bay industrial, AI data center infrastructure plays, and what it takes to find yield in today's economic environment.

Key Highlights

Market Correction Expansion: Cap rate expansion in high-growth markets like Phoenix and Austin triggered asset valuation drops of 30% to 40% from peak levels.

Holding Cost Squeeze: Elevated interest rates combined with rising property taxes and insurance have eroded traditional 8% multifamily cash flows.

The Underwriting Dilemma: Investors debate whether to underwrite assuming reversion cap rates will compress or hold strictly conservative exit cap assumptions.

Capital Formation Reality: Retail investor sentiment remains guarded after recent market adjustments, shifting the focus to deep-value opportunities.

AI Infrastructure Surge: Multi-billion dollar developments in AI data centers are creating a rising-tide effect for adjacent industrial real estate and small-bay flex spaces.

Shift to Creative Value-Add: In today's high-interest-rate environment, traditional value-add strategies (heavy rehabs and rent increases) are being replaced by creative value-add methods, such as property tax exemptions and operational expense reductions.

The Land SuUnderwriting Margin of Safety: Defensive underwriting requires fixing debt, prioritizing high Debt Service Coverage Ratios (DSCR), and assuming elevated interest rates will persist long-term.

Diversification for Risk Mitigation: Mitigating risk at the bottom of a market cycle is best achieved by diversifying across recession-resilient asset classes (multifamily, manufactured housing, self-storage, medical office) and across multiple geographic markets.

In this episode of the Big Mike Fund Podcast, host Mike Zlotnik sits down with Harvard-trained physician Dr. Jordan Romano to discuss his unique, hyper-local real estate investing thesis. While maintaining an active medical practice at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Dr. Romano has spent over a decade quietly dominating a single, rural New England market by focus-targeting workforce housing.

Dr. Romano pulls back the curtain on how he identifies hidden value in properties that larger conglomerates overlook. He shares tactical insights on bypassing the volatile short-term rental market, navigating strict municipal zoning boards, and his exact blueprint for executing a highly profitable land subdivision play that essentially netted him a piece of downtown land for free.
