EP423 What is Preferred Equity with Paul Moore
Over the past year and a half, the unprecedented rise in interest rates has had many ripple effects across the commercial real estate investing world. These ripple effects have put many investments that were made in the past two to three years in jeopardy. Today we discuss those ripple effects and how preferred equity is being used to bolster the capital stack on new acquisitions or provide rescue funds for projects that are struggling due to increased costs. And I can think of no better person to help us make sense of this than friend of the show Paul Moore. You’ve seen Paul’s articles on Bigger Pockets, and he’s been on the show many times. Today Paul talks about preferred equity, and how it’s being used to bring additional funds into many different types of projects. Paul is the founder and managing partner of Wellings Capital, and a best-selling author on multifamily and self-storage.

EP422 What to do When You Get a Capital Call with Aleksey Chernobelskiy
Many real estate investors prefer to be passive and avoid the many responsibilities of owning and managing properties. You can do this by becoming a limited partner in a syndication, which affords you the tax benefits and profit participation of owning real estate, without the headaches of actually taking care of the investment. But investing in a syndication as a limited partner can be a daunting task. How do you know if you can trust the operator, understand the asset class, or even make a profit when all is said and done. My guest today advises limited partners on existing and future investments, and today he’s going to help us understand how to properly vet LP investments in the grand scheme of our portfolios. Aleksey Chernobelskiy has underwritten and overseen $10 billion in commercial real estate portfolios in his previous position with STORE Capital. Lately, Aleksey has had many conversations with limited partner investors who are receiving capital calls from their sponsors. We’re going to discuss how he advises his clients to respond.
