    Why Banks Are About to Flood the Market with Distressed Deals w/ Marcin Drozdz

    When banks start calling to ask what you'd pay for a distressed asset, that's not a coincidence. That's the market telling you something. This episode is hosted by Reed Goossens. We're joined by Marcin Drozdz, managing partner of M1 Real Capital, who has spent 18 years raising nine figures of private capital and acquiring over 1,600 units across the US. Marcin lived through the 2008 crash from inside a private equity firm on day one — the same day Lehman Brothers collapsed. In this conversation, he draws a direct line between what he saw then and what's unfolding in commercial real estate today, from overleveraged assets and extend-and-pretend lending to the distressed opportunities he believes are coming. We get into why banks are already making quiet calls to buyers, what replacement cost investing means in today's construction environment, the 5 million housing unit gap that never got filled, and why the buyers who move while others are frozen will look very smart in a few years. If you're trying to make sense of where we are in the cycle and how to position for what comes next, this episode gives you the historical context and the practical framework to do it. Let's dive in! Key Takeaways: 00:00 Intro  01:35 How Marcin made his first dollar  04:00 Witnessing Lehman Brothers collapse firsthand  04:40 Building during COVID and launching the mentorship side  05:44 Crisis of confidence: parallels between 2009 and today  08:55 How the JOBS Act democratized investing — gift and a curse  12:41 Interest rate reality check and where asset values stand  14:46 Why replacement cost is now a core buying metric  18:44 The 5 million housing unit gap and what smart buyers are doing  20:13 Top 5 investing tips  24:59 Outro Additional resources: ➡️ Check out Marcin Drozdz: • Website: https://marcindrozdz.com/  • Company: M1 Real Capital ➡️ Visit https://reedgoossens.com/  • Invest passively in multifamily real estate  • Get FREE access to my 100% Passive Real Estate Investment Masterclass  • Take a look at my portfolio  • Get FREE multifamily real estate resources ➡️ Follow me on social media: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reed-goossens-b2a6a933/  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reedgoossens/  • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reed.goossens/  ➡️ Subscribe to my podcast: • YouTube: @ReedGoossensREI  • Apple: https://apple.co/44MiDN7  • Spotify: https://spoti.fi/45fVIcR  • Stitcher: https://bit.ly/3OHHJqJ  • Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/investing-in-the-us  — Investing in the U.S. is a podcast for real estate investors and entrepreneurs who want to break into the U.S. market and grow their wealth!

    Red Flags in a Real Estate Sponsor and How to Spot Them w/ Brian Burke

    Real estate sponsor decisions can make or break your entire investment. A good sponsor can navigate a bad situation. A bad sponsor can blow up a perfectly good deal. This episode is co-hosted by Ben Gray, partner and CEO at RSN Property Group. We’re joined by Brian Burke, founder and CEO of Praxis Capital and author of “The Hands-Off Investor”.  With more than 30 years of experience, Brian has operated through multiple market cycles and acquired over a billion dollars in real estate. He’s seen the run-ups, the corrections, and exactly what happens when deals are built on shaky foundations. In this conversation, he shares what actually matters when evaluating a real estate sponsor in today’s environment. We break down the key things you need to look for when evaluating a sponsor and how to avoid the costly mistakes that many investors make. We talk about the right questions to ask, the sponsor’s track record you should focus on, and why a sponsor’s debt strategy and capital stack can shape the entire outcome of a deal. If you’re investing passively or thinking about it, this episode will give you a checklist to confidently vet a real estate sponsor and protect your capital. Let's dive in! Key Takeaways:  00:00 Intro 02:29 Chase sponsors, not deals 04:13 Market trends and making sense of demographics 08:35 How to properly vet a sponsor10:24 The harsh truth about ROI12:41 Sponsor due diligence and red flags 14:38 Three crucial questions to ask a sponsor 16:04 Fees, waterfalls, and underwriting 29:17 Debt and maturity dates 31:54 Advice for aspiring investors 32:58 Outro Additional resources:  ➡️ Check out Brian Burke:  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/investorbrianburke/      • Website: https://praxcap.com/  ➡️ Visit https://reedgoossens.com/ and: • Invest passively in multifamily real estate  • Get FREE access to my 100% Passive Real Estate Investment Masterclass • Take a look at my portfolio • Get FREE multifamily real estate resources  ➡️ Follow me on social media: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reed-goossens-b2a6a933/  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reedgoossens/  • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reed.goossens/  ➡️ Subscribe to my podcast:  • YouTube: @ReedGoossensREI  • Apple: https://apple.co/44MiDN7  • Spotify: https://spoti.fi/45fVIcR  • Stitcher: https://bit.ly/3OHHJqJ  • Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/investing-in-the-us  Investing in the U.S. is a podcast for real estate investors and entrepreneurs who want to break into the U.S. market and grow their wealth!

    The Proven Build-to-Rent Strategy Turning Investors Into Millionaires w/ Jim Sheils

    Is build-to-rent becoming one of the most powerful wealth-building strategies in US real estate? This week, we revisit the conversation with Jim Sheils of Southern Impression Homes to answer that question. Jim has been investing in real estate for over 25 years and now builds rental portfolios in Florida's high-growth markets for individual investors and institutional buyers.  We explore the growing potential of the BTR niche and why infill lots in established neighborhoods offer greater long-term durability than traditional fixer-uppers.  We also discuss common property management challenges, how Jim’s company survived the pandemic without bank financing, and the benefits of vertically integrated operations.   Let's dive in!  Key Takeaways:  00:00 Intro 01:07 Jim’s journey into real estate investing03:06 From rehabs to build-to-rent06:41 How his build-to-rent model works10:49 Florida rent growth before and after pandemic16:55 Supply constraints and bank lending pressure20:50 Five high-performance habits23:00 Jim’s vertical integration strategyAdditional resources:  ➡️ ‘Passive Income Playbook’ by Jim & Jamie Sheils: https://jjplaybook.com/  ➡️ Visit https://reedgoossens.com/ and: • Invest passively in multifamily real estate  • Get FREE access to my 100% Passive Real Estate Investment Masterclass • Take a look at my portfolio • Get FREE multifamily real estate resources  ➡️ Follow me on social media: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reed-goossens-b2a6a933/  • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reedgoossens/  • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reed.goossens/  ➡️ Subscribe to my podcast:  • YouTube: @ReedGoossensREI  • Apple: https://apple.co/44MiDN7  • Spotify: https://spoti.fi/45fVIcR  • Stitcher: https://bit.ly/3OHHJqJ  • Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/investing-in-the-us  Investing in the U.S. is a podcast for real estate investors and entrepreneurs who want to break into the U.S. market and grow their wealth!

    How to Win Across Market Cycles by Building an Investing Ecosystem

    What does it really take to stay successful as a real estate investor over multiple market cycles? In this episode, host John Casmon sits down with Reed Goossens, founder of RSN Property Group, to unpack how his investing philosophy has evolved over the last decade, and why long-term winners focus less on timing the market and more on consistently placing capital with discipline. Reed shares hard-earned lessons from operating through rising rates, flat rents, and increasing expenses, and explains why today’s investors must think beyond “passive” multifamily investing. From underwriting realities and operational pressure to building complementary business verticals for sustainable cash flow, this conversation offers a grounded look at what it takes to survive, and win, when the easy years are gone. Whether you’re an active operator or a serious passive investor, this episode will help you think more clearly about risk, cycles, and long-term portfolio resilience.
