The Commercial Real Estate Investor Podcast

Triple net properties are one of the most attractive real estate investments for a variety of reasons: they can offer low risk, minimal responsibilities for the landlord, and long-term passive income. Today, we’re going to cover everything you need to know about triple net leases to decide whether or not they make sense to add to your investment portfolio.

The buzzword in many commercial real estate circles over the last economic cycle has been “affordable housing.” As costs of living have continued to increase, developers, government officials, and special interest groups have been fighting to figure out how can we continue to provide affordable and attainable housing for those in need. But no one is talking about the affordability crisis for entrepreneurs and startups. The cost of commercial space has also risen dramatically - sometimes 50% or more in some cases around Nashville. Micro-units may be the way for entrepreneurship to continue thriving in an evermore expensive environment - here’s why.

Is it possible to wholesale commercial real estate? Absolutely. Today, I’m going to walk you through what wholesaling is, the pros and cons of this strategy, how to actually wholesale commercial real estate, and the mistakes you must avoid to be successful. Let’s dive on in.

Today, Tyler talks about how something coming in the potential future could destroy the Commercial Real Estate Investing Market.

As you might expect, raising capital for commercial real estate isn’t all that easy. In fact, it’s my least favorite aspect of investing in commercial properties - I’d much rather stay in my lane and focus on deal sourcing and acquisitions, planning for and developing the project, and executing our ideas. However, capital is a finite resource and if you’re looking to grow your assets under management, you’ll need to throw that fuel on your fire and bring in outside capital from investors. I recently finalized a $4.8 million cash raise with my partners on a commercial development in Nashville. At 10x my largest capital raise to-date, this raise gave me some valuable insight to the entire process. So, here are my biggest takeaways. www.tylercauble.com/podcast/episode078

When I first got started in commercial real estate, I thought there was only one way to go: You save money for years and years until you finally have enough to do a deal on your own. And for some people, that’s certainly a good way to go. I thought the same way until I learned about syndicating real estate at a mastermind in Austin, TX. It completely opened my eyes to how I could grow my investment portfolio bigger and faster while having less of my own cash, which we all know is a finite resource, in each deal. So, here’s my guide to commercial real estate syndication for beginners. www.tylercauble.com/podcast/episode077

I’ve been in commercial real estate since 2013 but only really started investing in 2019, after founding my own commercial brokerage. Since then, I’ve developed a 42-unit townhome community, acquired over 50,000 square feet of office and retail space, and am in the middle of a $19.2 million mixed-use development in East Nashville. And I get asked all the time: “How can I get into commercial real estate investing?” So, knowing what I know now, here’s what I would do if I had to start it all over. www.tylercauble.com/podcast/episode076

Finding commercial real estate investments can be one of the most frustrating parts of becoming an investor. Projects are often hidden by LLCs or other entities that are either shells or forward directly to an attorney, so finding the true owner can be a bit tricky. However, I've found direct mailers to be one of the most effective methods for sourcing potential investment opportunities. Here's my step by step process for direct mail marketing to commercial real estate owners.www.tylercauble.com/podcast/episode074
