1028 - How I Found a Great Investment in...

About this episode

Is it still possible to find undervalued commercial real estate investments?

We are in a time of transition. From a booming market to a shaky market. From historically low interest rates to the highest we’ve seen in years. From eager buyers, sometimes willing to overpay, to sidelined buyers, waiting to see where the falling knife lands.  

Great cash-flowing deals have gotten hard to find. And with higher interest and cap rates, even harder to pencil. Times like this require more due diligence than usual and a dedicated acquisition team turning over every stone.
