NOTHING BUT NET

In this special episode, co-hosts Michael Flight and Adam Carswell bring on Sepehr Bekam, Founder & Principal of Bekam Investment Group, to discuss how single-family investments differ from Triple Net (NNN) investments. Michael, Adam and Sep trade stories that emphasize just how important it is to know you, as an investor, have a strong investor philosophy, team, specific marketplace knowledge and then property deal before entering into a lease agreement with a tenant. Sep also shares his experiences investing in different single-family houses and portfolios, which took him through an interesting learning curve to realize the necessity of understanding a property’s demographics and location nuances. The men also enlighten us on how property management differs between not only single-family and net lease buildings but multifamily, as well. Closing the show, they touch on how the tax advantages, income and appreciation work compared to net lease investments, as well as point out the property types have some similarities with Section 8 housing.
