    From Big Tech to CRE, Market Vetting and Conservative Debt ft. Georgy Marrero

    On this episode of Multifamily Mastery, John Casmon interviews Georgy Marrero. Georgy shares his journey from coding prodigy to Big Tech (Amazon/Meta) and why he pivoted into real estate after early single-family flips led him toward multifamily, development, and industrial deals across the U.S. and Dominican Republic. He breaks down his operator-first framework (operator → market → asset), emphasizes downside protection through conservative debt and buying at a discount, and explains his AI-driven 21-point market screen. Georgy also details how he uses AI to scale capital raising, compress underwriting from hours to minutes, and tighten asset/development oversight with computer-vision tools.

    Houston Suburbs, Deposit Alternatives, In-House Ops ft. Robert Martinez

    On this episode of Next Leve CRE, Matt Faircloth interviews Robert Martinez. Robert walks through building Rockstar Capital from post-recession Class B/C roots to a Houston-centric portfolio, why he now underwrites conservatively (e.g., ~65% LTV, stress-tested exits), and how inflation, insurance spikes, and rates forced operators to sharpen fundamentals. He shares his “make them stay” playbook—prioritizing AC/boilers and quality turns, adding Amazon-style lockers and in-unit laundry, converting security deposits into monthly “deposit-alternative” fees, in-housing services like valet trash/landscaping, and tightly monitoring online reviews via J Turner—plus why he prefers self-management and geographically clustered assets in Houston’s suburbs near strong schools. He also details staff-first KPIs (occupancy/delinquency discipline), lessons from a short-lived third-party management experiment, and buying back long-held, well-understood assets rather than chasing heavy value-adds Visit https://www.bestevercre.com/rockstar for get Rockstar Capital's FREE NOI Boosters Guide Robert Martinez Current role: Founder & CEO, Rockstar Capital (multifamily owner-operator). rockstar-capital.com Based in: Houston, Texas. rockstar-capital.com Say hi to them at: robertmartinez.com| Instagram: @apartmentrockstar| Rockstar Capital contact Visit investwithsunrise.com to learn more about investment opportunities.  Get 50% Off Monarch Money, the all-in-one financial tool at www.monarchmoney.com with code BESTEVER Join the Best Ever Community  The Best Ever Community is live and growing - and we want serious commercial real estate investors like you inside.

    Cannabis Real Estate Debt, Evergreen REIT Structure and Risk-First Diligence ft. Chris Reece

    On this episode of the Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Chris Reece about lending against cannabis-licensed real estate and why he underwrites properties to an alternative (non-cannabis) use to de-risk senior mortgages on stabilized assets. They dig into MJ REIT’s evergreen, 506(c) structure—monthly subscriptions/redemptions, no lockup, a $25k minimum—and its goal of double-digit annualized distributions (11.27% net since inception) paid monthly. Chris contrasts construction lending vs. stabilized assets, explains how federal illegality (Schedule I/280E, SAFE Banking stalls) shapes the opportunity, and why today’s “gray zone” may persist for several years even as state markets expand. The conversation closes with how LPs should diligence cannabis debt funds: team/IC depth, conservative LTVs, consistency through cycles, and alignment on risk.

    Office at a Discount, Small-Bay Industrial Momentum and Kansas City’s Quiet Boom ft. Logan Freeman

    On this episode of Beyond Multifamily, Ash Patel interviews Logan Freeman (“Mr. Kansas City”), an investor–developer–broker who’s bullish on select office and small-bay industrial. He explains how Class B/C office can work today—smaller suites, 1–3 year leases, rigorous OPEX/insurance diligence, and lender-ready liquidity—while outlining why flex/industrial has real tailwinds. Logan breaks down Kansas City’s diversified growth story and how to win broker attention with a crisp buy box, fast feedback cadence, and authentic LinkedIn presence (plus smart AI to package data fast). He also shares lessons on time management, delegation, and a humbling historic rehab that reinforced the value of radical transparency in deals.

    Long-Distance Rentals, 2008 Lessons and Buyer’s Market Plays ft. Dani Beit-Or

    On this episode of Best Ever CRE, Joe Cornwell interviews Dani Beit-Or about his “get-rich-slow” approach to long-distance rental investing and how he started with a sight-unseen Phoenix purchase in 2002 before moving to the U.S. in 2004. He shares cycle-tested lessons from the 2008 crash, why boring, bread-and-butter single-family and small multis still win, and how to pick metros using fundamentals (jobs, demographics, landlord-friendly laws) instead of herd advice. Dani explains current plays to boost yield—mid-term rentals, selective discounts with builders, and the occasional VA-assumption/subject-to—and why today’s mostly-normalized rates still leave a closing window for buyer leverage. He and Joe also unpack why information abundance removes the “I don’t know how” excuse and how consistent process beats headlines.

    From Data To Deals, Funnel Design and Authenticity That Closes ft. Luis Green

    On this episode of Unlimited Capital, Richard McGirr interviews Luis (Lou) Green about his path from a decade in e-commerce to partnering in Arbet Group and spinning up Arbet Capital Partners to lead the firm’s capital division. They dig into why a separate capital arm enables feeder funds/SPVs and broader allocation for LPs, supported by communities like Family Office Club. Luis shares specific, high-touch outbound tactics—PERE-sourced lists, trigger-based calls, and creative “guerrilla” touches—to build institutional pipelines and keep investor relations centralized. Luis closes with a trust-first sales framework and the importance of systems, noting current initiatives like a $50M condo-conversion raise.

    Consumer Debt vs. Income, Savings Tailwinds and Q4 Retail Risk with John Chang

    On this episode of The Horizon, John discusses the July retail sales print—strong nominally but essentially flat after inflation—and why consumer capacity to spend (healthier debt-to-income ratios and rising savings) is at odds with willingness to spend as sentiment softens. He explains how tariffs are likely to shift more costs from businesses to consumers in coming months, potentially weighing on Q4 sales and nudging inflation higher. Translating this to CRE, John expects more pressure on West Coast industrial (trade-exposed) while retail vacancies drift up from record lows, with grocery/necessity retail holding steadier than restaurants. Longer-term, he sees structural demand supported by millennial spending power, sizable boomer wealth, and improving transaction activity into late-2025/2026.
