Kavitha is a real estate expert.

Kavitha is the Founder of Cherry Street Investments, an Austin-based firm that focuses on multifamily, build-to-rent, and senior care facilities. Prior to real estate, she spent almost 20 years as a Technology Professional working for IBM in various roles across Software Development, Customer Services, Partner Relations, and Technical Account Management.

Quote:

"There's a whole bunch of little things involved before we can take land and make it a buildable piece of land—what we call 'shovel ready.'" "The first phase is the entitlement phase, the second phase is the horizontal development, and the third phase is actually the vertical development where people actually see something happening. So before that we're just moving dirt around in the second phase and in the first phase we don't do anything…it's just about approvals."

Highlights:

01:50 - Kavitha tells listeners more about her background in real estate and her first major real estate investment.

07:27 - Kavitha talks about why and how she started to diversify outside of multifamily acquisitions.

12:23 - Kavitha discusses the ins and outs of land entitlement and how she adds value.

21:18 - Kavitha dissects her build-to-rent strategy.

24:55 - Kavitha touches on the projects she's most excited about.

Jay Balekar is a Real Estate Investment Expert.

Jay is a principal at Compounding Capital Group, a private real estate investment firm that operates more than 5,000 multi-family units in 14 cities, across 8 states.

Jay is a successful business and technology leader with roots in technology consulting. Jay started investing in real estate in 2015 to diversify his investment portfolio. Jay grew passionate about real estate after doing his first few multi-family repositioning deals after realizing the true potential of real estate to create generational wealth, passive income, tax benefits, and a positive impact on society by providing people the most basic need of housing.

Quote:

"One thing I realized was when you actually work as a team, you're not doing everything yourself…everything is shared which is the biggest benefit when investing together with other people. In retrospect, if there is one thing I could change, I would probably start investing in a group with other people earlier than I did."

"The lessons learned in any heavy-lift type of project is that whatever you estimate the rehab cost is going to be, just assume it's going to be 2x…and have enough money raised."

Highlights:

02:22 - Jay tells listeners more about his background in real estate and his first major real estate investment.

06:32 - Jay dissects how he moved forward after his first major deal and after having no more capital to invest.

08:20 - Jay discusses the challenges he faced during his first renovation project.

15:07 - Jay talks about the lessons he learned that he carries with him into new investments.

16:37 - Jay provides insight into self-management investments and why his company decided to go vertical instead of outsourcing property management.

Today's Flash Back Friday Episode is from Episode #95 that originally aired in December of 2015.

Our guest for this week's show is Real estate expert, Alan Pollack. Alan brings a broad range of investment experience to the table and brings a ton of knowledge to our discussion today. Probably one of the most impressive things about Alan and his business is the way that he's been able to quickly change gears and re-adapt to the ever-changing real estate investing landscape. Being able to master this skill of re-adoption is by far one of the most important traits of any successful real estate investor…especially if you plan on making this a lifelong career.

In this show with Alan you're going to learn:

• How Alan got his start in the real estate business by dealing in bulk non-performing note acquisitions with local and regional banks that operated in the sub-billion dollar range.
• How he was able to profit from a little-known niche of dealing with non-profits who were experiencing short sales.
• Why Alan decided to transition into wholesaling and flipping single-family homes at this point in the real estate cycle and how he targets what he refers to as "situation value-add"
• How they have been doing more deals by going after listed properties vs. off-market deals which they were finding through means of direct mail campaigns.
• How he and his team utilize technology to successfully automate the process of researching and making offers on listed properties and have had fantastic results.
• How he was able to obtain his real estate education from a trusted mentor and why he suggests that having a mentor is the one most important thing that both new and seasoned investors should have in their personal and business life.
• Why he is currently only focused on quick turns at this point in his business rather than long-term hold strategies.
• The lesson he learned during the downturn of 2006 on a loan that was held by GE capital which was called due before he was able to stabilize it.
• Why it doesn't always pay to be cheap when doing renovations on a property and how using top-grade materials can push your profits to another level in the right markets.
• How partnering with a more experienced investor can save you money on your loan and funding costs.

Jeff Copeland is a Real Estate Investment Expert and fellow Tampa Bay resident.

Jeff is the Co-Founder of Copeland Morgan, LLC, a multifaceted real estate firm that handles everything from direct investments, brokerage, property management, and construction services.

Quote:

"I think there are still ways to stay competitive in [the Tampa Bay] market and one of them is the infamous Value-Ad property…negotiate and buy it based on how its performing now with a realistic plan for year 1, year 2, and what are we going to do to help it cash-flow better, generate more income, and reduce the expenses."

"Rents are always going to lag real estate prices because most leases are locked in for a year or so, and so you see them jump on an annual basis where the sales prices go up on an even curve." "One of the things we don't have in the Tampa Bay market is the high-wage jobs. We don't have the Silicon Valley in our backyard…we are still a service-based economy, a tourism-based economy, a healthcare-based economy."

Highlights:

02:32 - Jeff tells listeners more about his background in real estate.

06:32 - Jeff dissects Tampa Bay market growth.

08:26 - Jeff discusses how investors can stay competitive in his market.

10:24 - Jeff and Kevin talk about rent growth and trends.

16:04 - Jeff provides insight into investments trends outside of apartments and single-family based on Tampa's competitive market.

17:31 - Jeff discusses opportunities for other investors across Tampa and different counties.

21:13 - Jeff dives into what he's excited about outside of real estate. 22:54 - Jeff answers Kevin's golden nugget question.
