You will learn the differences between investing actively and passively, and what might be best for you on this episode with Mark Khuri, co-founder of SMK Capital Management, a boutique private equity real estate investment firm. Mark talks about the value of diversifying with best-in-class sponsors across multiple asset classes and geographies. 

Mark’s career in real estate began in 2005 when he started investing in residential real estate in California and Florida. In 2010, he co-founded SMK Capital Management, which focuses on recession resistant investment opportunities. Mark has experience analyzing thousands of investment opportunities, and he shares the value of understanding the story behind the property to find where value could be added. His investments span from mobile home parks to self-storage, ATM machines, and triple net industrial, among others. 

If you are going to invest passively, qualifying the sponsor is essential. Mark shares how best to go about this process. You will also benefit as we get under the hood on how these deals are structured.
