XN STATE

Andrew brings a fascinating perspective from an angle that we don't hear a lot from these days, bullish on the retail sector.

We talk about:

• His outlook on an evolving retail industry. 
• His firm belief on the importance of "bringing something to the table".
• How he partnered with two seasoned real estate investors when he was starting out.
• Andrew’s perspective on an “overpopulated” multifamily market.
• The demographic information that his company targets.
• How Gr8 Partners capitalizes on the current spread between financing interest rates and the cap rates that he is able to achieve in retail. 

You can reach Andrew through gr8partners.com, and I encourage everyone to check out Andrew’s Spanish podcast El Cashflow Café.

Today we interview Omar Khan. Omar runs Boardwalk Wealth, a private equity firm based in Dallas, TX that specializes in multifamily real estate opportunities of B and C class properties with value-add potential. 

We talk about:

• The markets Omar is in right now and the reasons why. 
• The difference between investing in existing assets vs. ground-up development. 
• How his company zones in on a target market and eventually finds a property there. 
• Today’s market and where we are on the economic cycle. 
• How much buyers are overpaying for assets today and what Omar is doing about it. 
• Omar’s thoughts on the Houston market. 
• Where Omar’s time is best spent today in the running of his company. 
• The most important attribute Omar looks at when selecting a market and the most important attribute he looks at when evaluating individual property.
