I’m Rafik Moore, CEO of Brait Capital — a private equity real estate firm with a 9-figure portfolio across 9 states. In this episode of the Value Add Podcast, I sit down with my friend and first capital partner, Corey McClure, to talk about what really makes real estate partnerships work.

Corey started with $300K and grew it into a lending business that has done over $63M in deals — averaging an 18% return. Together, we break down the mindset, values, and deal structures behind sustainable partnerships.

You’ll discover:
 • How to turn a hard money lender into a long-term partner
 • Why character and integrity matter more than spreadsheets
 • Creative structures to unlock millions in equity
 • The psychology of trust with capital partners
 • How to scale from single deals to a commercial portfolio

This episode is about more than raising money — it’s about building relationships that last and wealth that’s sustainable.
