Lessons Going From Carlyle to 4,000 Units - E1062 - CFC

Rising interest rates. Distressed deals. A frozen capital market…

Sound familiar?

Today I interviewed Randy Langenderfer, and he has been through it all—building 4,000+ units across Texas, Oklahoma, and Ohio. 

You want to know what really sets him apart though? 

His background in private equity at Carlyle, where he learned how to engineer cash flow like a Fortune 500 operator.

In this episode, we unpack:

• The exact buy box Randy is targeting in 2025 (and why he’s skipping certain markets)
• How Carlyle’s approach to EBITDA growth directly applies to multifamily
• Why some distressed deals won’t hit the market—and who gets first dibs
• The surprising reason he’s sticking with single-asset syndications over funds

Plus, Randy shares how hard lessons from the last cycle are shaping his new deals—and what every LP should look for before writing their next check.

If you’re serious about investing in this next phase of the market…
