The Real Estate Syndication Show

Welcome back to another episode of the Real Estate Syndication Show. Today, we had the pleasure of speaking with Kim Daly, a seasoned franchise consultant with nearly 23 years of experience. Kim shared her insights on why real estate investors should consider franchising as a means to diversify their portfolios, especially in the current economic climate where high interest rates and limited real estate availability pose challenges.Kim emphasized the benefits of franchising, such as the ability to scale wealth and the support of established systems and processes. She introduced the concept of semi-absentee ownership, where investors can take on a CEO role and hire a general manager to handle day-to-day operations, allowing for a more hands-off approach to business management.One of the key takeaways from our conversation was the mutual selection process in franchising. It's not just about buying a franchise; it's about being awarded one based on a good fit with the franchisor's culture and expectations. Kim also touched on the reasons behind franchise failures, often attributing them to the owner's inability to follow the system or maintain the necessary mindset for success.For those interested in exploring franchising opportunities, Kim Daly can be reached through her website, The Daly Coach, or her extensive video library on KimDaly.tv. She's committed to educating potential investors to make informed decisions without regrets.Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share the Real Estate Syndication Show with friends interested in building wealth through real estate.

Welcome back to another episode of your daily real estate syndication show. I'm your host, Whitney Sewell, and today we had the pleasure of catching up with Devin Elder, a respected figure in the real estate space. It's been a couple of years since our last conversation, and there's a lot to catch up on.Devin shared an overview of his business, DJE, which has a significant presence in the Texas real estate market, primarily focusing on multifamily properties. Despite the challenges posed by the current economic climate, DJE has been actively pursuing acquisitions, including a 300-unit deal closing this week. Devin emphasized the importance of finding good basis deals and adapting to the high-interest-rate environment.We discussed the necessity of being creative in times when traditional multifamily deals are scarce. Devin highlighted their pivot into land deals, which has proven to be a lucrative and enjoyable venture. By subdividing larger tracts of land and offering them to a different buyer pool, they've been able to maintain deal flow and provide investors with consistent opportunities.Devin also touched on the structure of these land deals, explaining that they are set up as 506B debt offerings, allowing investors to earn a fixed return. This approach has been beneficial for both the company and the investors, offering flexibility and a variety of investment options.The conversation also covered the importance of building and maintaining investor relationships, with referrals being the primary source of new investors. Devin shared insights into their marketing strategies and the value of having regular conversations with potential investors.Lastly, we delved into DJE's debt fund, which provides additional flexibility for the company to execute deals across various asset classes. Devin outlined the fund's structure and the goal of keeping it sufficiently deployed to meet investor expectations.For those interested in learning more about Devin and DJE's strategies, visit djetexas.com.

In today's episode  we continue our conversation with Stash Gelezinski, a partner at Nedl, and a seasoned expert in the commercial real estate industry. Stash brought to the table over 15 years of experience and shared insights on how AI and machine learning are revolutionizing the way we approach real estate investments.Key Points from the Episode:Nedl's Innovative Platform: Nedl a data analytics firm, is revolutionizing the commercial real estate industry with its innovative platform. They have meticulously cataloged every multifamily property in the United States with 50 units or more, providing clients with updated leads on a monthly basis. This platform allows brokers and operators to optimize their portfolios and maximize their returns by leveraging data-driven insights.The Power of Specificity in Prospecting: Stash emphasizes the importance of specificity when prospecting property owners. Instead of asking if they want to sell any property, it is more effective to target a specific property of interest. This approach leads to more meaningful conversations and increases the likelihood of potential deals.Challenges and Market Predictions: Stash discusses the challenges faced in 2023, specifically the gap between buyer and seller expectations. He predicts that the real estate market will improve as the Federal Reserve indicates potential interest rate decreases. This could help narrow the expectation gap and create more favorable conditions for transactions.Advice for Passive Investors: Stash advises passive investors to thoroughly understand the sponsor they are investing with and the metrics of the deal. It is crucial to assess the sponsor's track record and evaluate the feasibility of their projections. By conducting due diligence, passive investors can make informed decisions and mitigate risks.Listeners interested in Nedl's  AI platform can visit nedl.us for more information or to request a demo.

These examples highlighted how operators can save significant amounts of money and time by making more informed purchasing decisions.Andy also touched on the importance of process costing, which includes all expenses related to a maintenance task, not just the cost of materials but also the labor and associated overheads.

In today's episode, we have the pleasure of welcoming back Nelson Marsh, a visionary in the realm of real estate and hospitality. Nelson previously enlightened us on the concept of irreplaceable real estate and the Marsh Collective's innovative approach to development. If you missed that insightful discussion, I highly recommend giving it a listen.Our conversation today took a deep dive into the Marsh Collective's unique philosophy of "redemptification" in real estate, a term coined by Nelson's father, John Marsh. This concept is a compassionate response to the negative aspects of gentrification, focusing on community enhancement and preservation rather than displacement.Nelson shares his personal journey, from being a homeschooled prodigy to a passionate entrepreneur in the wine industry. His story is a testament to the power of resilience and learning through failure. Despite the success of his wine bar, Nelson faced significant challenges, including theft by trusted employees and a devastating injury. These hardships, compounded by the impact of COVID-19, led to the difficult decision to close his business.However, Nelson's entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to hospitality didn't end there. He returned to work with his family at the Marsh Collective, applying the hard-earned lessons from his wine bar to create spaces that truly resonate with people. Nelson emphasized the importance of right-sizing in the hospitality industry, advocating for intimate, well-crafted experiences over expansive, impersonal venues.As we wrapped up, Nelson left us with a powerful message: love of place should be the primary strategy in real estate development. It's not just an underlying sentiment; it's the driving force behind creating spaces that people are drawn to and where businesses can thrive.For those interested in learning more about Nelson's work or the Marsh Collective, he invites you to visit their website or tune into the Redemptification Podcast. And if you ever find yourself in Opelika, Nelson would be delighted to show you around and share the love that they pour into every project.Remember to like and subscribe to the Real Estate Syndication Show for more stories and insights on building wealth through real estate.
