About this episode

Investing in apartment buildings may seem like a big jump to everyday real estate investors. Mom and pop landlords—used to buying single-family houses or duplexes—may see apartment buildings as far outside their reach. And this, for the most part, has been true over the past two years. With high competition, equally high prices, and syndication deals popping off every other second, regular investors haven’t been able to invest in large multifamily real estate—until now.

Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth started as solo-investors like most of us. But, over the past decade, they’ve both grown large multifamily portfolios, and know exactly how hard it's been over the past two years. They’re finally starting to see some cracks in the institutional armor of multifamily, allowing small-time investors to get deals while everyone else is fleeing from high interest rates and an oncoming economic downturn.

If you’ve been waiting to level up your investment portfolio, make big equity gains, and bring in massive passive income, then this is the episode for you. And, if you feel like you’re too new to invest, the BiggerPockets Multifamily Bootcamp, hosted by Matt Faircloth, will give you everything you need to go from onlooker to investor!

In This Episode We Cover:

Multifamily “tailwinds” that are making apartment investing easier in 2022 and 2023

The hidden opportunity of multifamily that most investors don’t pay attention to

How creativity became crucial in the real estate industry and using it to score better deals

Which multifamily properties are safe from an economic downturn and inflation 

The seven ways that you can mitigate multifamily risk when investing

How to start building your multifamily strategy today so deals flow to you as competition thins

And So Much More!
