Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Brian Spear, principal and co-founder of Sunrise Capital Investors. Brian shares his journey from living in a mobile home park at age 10 to building a portfolio of over 20 mobile home parks and $100 million in parking facilities across 14 states. The conversation explores how Sunrise transitioned from a fix-and-flip model to a long-term hold strategy, with Brian explaining their focus on returning capital quickly through refinancing while maintaining infinite cash-on-cash returns. The discussion heats up when Ash challenges the industry trend toward generational holds, leading to a debate about investor liquidity and market timing risks. Brian details their recent acquisition of a parking facility near Charlotte's Spectrum Center, breaking down how they carved out a $31 million parking asset from a $250 million distressed mixed-use property. The episode also covers how technology and dynamic pricing are transforming the parking industry, and why Brian views parking lots as the ultimate "location, location, location" play.
