    CRE's Paypal Mafia: The JMB Realty Story

    In this special episode, we dive deep into the story of JMB Realty Corporation, one of the most influential firms in the modern history of CRE, with a playbook and an alumni network that continue to shape the industry today. You could argue that if JMB didn’t exist, real estate syndication would look very different today. M&A would look very different today. Hell, even the Heavenly Bed wouldn’t exist. From its humble beginnings as a glint in the eyes of Neil Bluhm, Judd Malkin and Robert Judelson, to its status as the powerhouse firm of the 80s and its legacy as the firm whose alum birthed Starwood, Blackstone Real Estate, Northwood and scores of other industry leaders, we explore it all. This is a must-listen both for industry vets and for up-and-comers looking to understand why the CRE industry looks the way it does today.

    This week, we discuss multifamily’s mega-marriage of convenience: After getting no love from the Street for being merely huge, multifamily REITs Equity Residential and AvalonBay are considering a merger. Will overuses the word “tectonic,” but it really does apply here, so we’re going to dive in as deep as we can. We then leave the public markets behind for a telenovela playing out at an old-school Miami real estate family: major developer Terra Group’s David Martin is being accused of playing the part of a Bollywood villain. This is the exact kinda story lineup we love here at The Promote - a lil’ meat, a lil’ masala. Plus, our Punch List rundown of the newsiest industry happenings: KKR's data-center play; Alan Stalcup's Starwood PGs; Newmark's earnings; Aby Rosen battles German lender at Soho hotel; Anthropic's NYC leasing tear.

    Aman’s Dirty Laundry & Atlanta’s Phantom Megaproject

    This week, we have the this-is-too-weird-to-be-real tale of Forge Atlanta, a $3.8 billion megaproject with the most bizarro development team and history we’ve ever come across for a project of this scale. We know ground-up is smoke and mirrors even on a good day, but this is NEXT LEVEL. We then slip into linen trousers and head to the embattled sun-kissed shores of hospitality giant Aman, where the involvement of a mysterious international fugitive has caused all sorts of drama between Aman and key partners Cain International and PIF. And finally, a quick wardrobe change into earnings-call appropriate attire, as CBRE absolutely crushes the AI boom.

    The Frum Fraudfather & Pied à Terre Purgatory

    This week, we finally tackle the story of Mark Nussbaum – the real estate attorney who became the nexus of the underground Orthodox CRE dealmaking world, facilitating hundreds of millions of dollars in deals and "show capital" before it all collapsed spectacularly in a wave of lawsuits, criminal fraud allegations, and even the suicide of a close collaborator, Mendy Steiner. Nussbaum's tale is a lens into the gray economy of the frum, where huge deals are often done on a handshake and under the aegis of a close-knit community. We also explore New York's new push for a pied-a-terre tax, which has serious momentum with Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Gov. Kathy Hochul in lockstep. Finally, we look at how Dubai billionaire developer Hussain Sajwani's luxury condo at the site of the Surfside tragedy has yet to sell a single unit – a new development launch is like an IPO - you only get one shot at setting the narrative. Plus, our Punch List rundown of the newsiest industry happenings: SREIT's $1.7B refi, SL Green's Hyundai Tribeca rescue, more Stargate troubles and Ares' C-PACE bet.

    Multifamily's Icarus: Alan Stalcup On the Record

    "Property management companies made my spreadsheets lie." "We're gonna move the pref to a 17. Okay, okay, Tom. You're fucking me right now. You know that, right?" This week, we break protocol to bring you a no-holds-barred interview with the poster child of the Sunbelt syndicator boom/bust, Alan Stalcup of GVA Management. Fueled by OPM, ZIRP, and an insatiable appetite for deals, Stalcup rode to the very top of the multifamily mountaintop, amassing 30,000 units in an acquisition spree for the ages. When rates turned, however, his firm became one of the highest-profile casualties, setting off a wave of defaults, investor & lender lawsuits, and explosive allegations of fraud. In this unplugged conversation with The Promote, Stalcup talks through his rise – how a software salesman became one of the biggest landlords in the country through savvy fundraising, rapid acquisitions and fast exits – his butting heads with the likes of Fortress Investment Group and his lenders, and the aftermath of GVA's collapse. We talk through property management, syndicator raises and what happens when you become Patient Zero of a much broader reckoning.

Next, we discuss how Manhattan office has broken the $300 a foot barrier – twice in a month! And finally, we bust out our Marley Slims and head to Brooklyn, where Orthodox dealmaker Simon Dushinsky's unorthodox playbook at the Rabsky Group is dominating the development landscape.
