July 24 The Apartment Deal Built to Survive a Down Market
The best deals aren't just built for upside. They're built to protect the downside.

In this video, Rob Beardsley and Craig McGrouther explain why Tiburon stands out with its remarkable blend of opportunity and downside protection. They discuss how low leverage, a fixed-rate loan that's already in place, and a strong business plan create flexibility while positioning the property for long-term growth.

July 22 How Multifamily Investors Actually Get Rich
In this video, I break down the three pillars behind multifamily investing: cash flow, appreciation, and the tax benefits that set real estate apart. I explain why it's not about timing the market, but time in the market, and how depreciation and 1031 exchanges help investors compound their capital over the long term.

July 20 Why We're Assuming This 5.8% Loan
A fixed-rate loan is great, but a fixed-rate loan you don't have to rate lock is even better.

In this video, Rob Beardsley and Craig McGrouther explain why assuming the seller's existing 5.8% fixed-rate loan was a key advantage for this investment.

They discuss how the loan assumption removes interest rate uncertainty before closing, why lower leverage helps protect downside risk, and how multiple exit strategies provide flexibility if market conditions change.

July 17 This Deal Checks Every Box
In this video, Rob Beardsley and Craig McGrouther break down why Tiburon stands out as a multifamily investment opportunity.

They discuss how limited nearby supply, a 70% break-even occupancy, less than 57% loan-to-cost, and a fixed 5.82% interest rate provide meaningful downside protection while supporting the upside potential of the value-add strategy.

July 15 DST or TIC For Your 1031 Exchange?
Not all 1031 exchange strategies are created equal. The structure you choose matters more than most investors realize.

In this video, I break down the key differences between a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) and a Tenancy in Common (TIC), and explain why I believe a TIC offers investors greater flexibility and long-term control over their 1031 exchange.
