On this episode of Beyond Multifamily, Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Mike Kron, founder of Guardian Advisory, to discuss his launch of a $100 million private equity fund focused on single tenant net lease (STNL) retail assets. Mike shares why he believes now is a prime time to buy these Amazon-resistant properties due to the anticipated drop in interest rates and how his fund strategy leverages long lease terms, high-credit tenants, and minimal management overhead. He explains the 18% IRR projection, capital-raising tactics, and why he's prioritizing stability and investor-friendly structures over flashier value-add opportunities for Fund One. The conversation also touches on the future of retail, the return of bonus depreciation, and how institutional investors factor into his long-term exit strategy.
