On today’s episode of THE FINANCIAL COMMUTE, host Chris Galeski invites Managing Director at KCB Real Estate Megan Pautler-Gutnikov to discuss KCB Real Estate and their investment strategies. KCB is a buy-and-hold control investor in a wide variety of income-producing property types. 

We have felt confident in our partnership with KCB because of their long-term, disciplined, and patient outlook. They work with operating partners with a strong track record and prefer assets they can hold indefinitely. 

Megan emphasizes the need for investors to balance patience with a willingness to adapt to changing conditions, as rising interest rates, widening spreads, and bank failures have been contributing to lower property valuations. The debt maturity wall and national housing shortage may also affect the market in the future. It may be easy to fall into short-term, high-leverage strategies, but a quickly changing market makes it challenging for such approaches to work.
