Hey, guys today I'm interviewing Brian Chavis, the author of the book Buy it. Rent it. Profit! Brian is a very successful multifamily real estate investor and syndicator. He's also considered to be a leader when it comes to multifamily investing. What I think is so special about him is that he started his career as a property manager and that's why his insights are always on point since he had seen this business through its core. So let's get started. 

 

Welcome to the Real Estate Investing podcast with Don and Eden where we cover all aspects of real estate investing with special attention to multi-family apartment buildings and off-market strategies. 

 

Hey Brian, welcome to the show. Thanks for having me. Good to be here. 

 

So I've been wanting to have you on the show ever since I was listening to you in a different podcast. And I got to say that you're one of the experts that I've ever listened to when it comes to multifamily management and you're a very renowned speaker. The first thing I want us to do is, tell us a little bit about yourself and what you've been doing in the past year and what you're doing right now. 

 

Oh, awesome. I'll be glad to. My background as is the multifamily industry I got started in this industry well over a decade ago - probably push closer to two decades now but first got into this industry just leasing. I started leasing apartments worked my way up from leasing into management to acquisition specialist. So really I've been around the multi-family industry from day one. I think when you were saying and I greatly appreciate the feedback that you heard me on other podcasts and gravitated toward my style or my brand I think that comes from really just living this and doing this for so long.  there's a lot of syndicators and there's a lot of outstanding guys out there getting involved with my multifamily. A lot of experts now offering classes in educational content which is awesome. I love it. We welcome it and I admire all those guys but very few have started like I have, which was almost 20 years ago leasing, management and working their way up through the multi-family industry a lot of them got in as syndicators and been blessed to have the opportunities to be able to raise money coming from other positions or jobs and creating these real estate investment firms w
