#331: Multifamily, Syndication, Residential to Senior Housing Conversions, and So Much More! -with Prashant Kumar

<p>Prashant Kumar is a real estate expert and syndicator.</p> <p>As Founder and Managing Partner at MyRealityGains, he applied his 25+ years of experience in corporate America to analyzing opportunities and managing his real estate operations. He acquires and holds stable, income-producing multifamily apartment complexes in emerging US markets with long-term capital appreciation. </p> <p>In addition to his investment activities, Prashant also runs a real estate meetup in NY as well as participating in numerous industry masterminds.</p> <p class="p1">Quotes:</p> <p class="p1">"I feel like the assistant living space, which can be explored further…is there but it's not like everyone is rushing there towards it because it's more of an operation intensive business."</p> <p class="p1">"[The senior assistant living space] is a very operation-intensive business. We come in as investors, we get it built, but even to do the operation [everything] has to be correct. So we have to find the right operation efficient company to do the work."</p> <p class="p1">"The biggest challenge with residential is to do the operations…number one operations and number two, from a scalability standpoint, getting a loan on those properties."</p> <p class="p1">"From a conversion standpoint, you will buy as a residential home, you will put the money to modify it… so you are talking about nine months worth of delay before you can go into the operation. And then filling up time can be anywhere from 3 to 6 months depending on what you do."</p> <p class="p1">"The biggest factor [at play in hotel to senior housing conversions] is the zoning. You know, if the hotel is empty doesn't mean you can go in and convert it. It depends on the town and if they're going to allow for assisted living in that area or not. Number two is the general population, the age group, and what is their income and the demand."</p> <p class="p1">Highlights:</p> <p class="p1">2:04 - Prashant gives us an overview of his background in India, working in the corporate world, and how he got started in real estate.</p> <p class="p1">5:23 - Prashant tells us how he went about managing his first single-family and multi-family investments.</p> <p class="p1">7:30 - Prashant talks about his progression—how he went from his first single-family investment to the world of larger syndications and multi-family investments.</p> <p class="p1">10:42 - Prashant describes his experience obtaining a property out of outward-bound marketing/cold calling efforts.</p> <p class="p1">14:45 - Prashant tells us all about the senior housing space, his growth plans, and what attracts him to this sector.</p> <p class="p1">18:40 - Prashant discusses his first two projects in the assisted living space.</p> <p class="p1">19:18 - Prashant briefs the terms on SPA loans.</p> <p class="p1">20:28 - Prashant talks about the distress aspects of residential and senior assistant investments.</p> <p class="p1">23:24 - Prashant discusses where he's at in the turnaround process of his assistant living investments.</p> <p class="p1">25:40 - Prashant discusses the challenges of residential housing versus the benefits of the larger scale senior housing space.</p> <p class="p1">28:11 - Prashant tells listeners how single-family to senior care facility conversions work.</p> <p class="p1">30:52 - Prashant dives into senior housing conversions out of extended stay/hotel spaces during the pandemic and what makes a good hotel for this type of conversion.</p> <h4>Guest Website:</h4> <p><strong><a href= "https://multifamilyrealtygains.com/">https://multifamilyrealtygains.com/</a></strong></p> <p class="p1"><a href="https://sunrisecapitalinvestors.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Learn About Investment and Partnership Opportunities with Kevin and His Team</strong></a></p> <p class="p1"><strong>Recommended Resources:</strong></p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1">Check out our company and our investment opportunity by visiting <a href= "http://www.sunrisecapitalinvestors.com/"><span class= "s2">www.SunriseCapitalInvestors.com</span></a></li> <li class="li1">Self Directed IRA Investment Opportunity – <a href= "http://info.advantaira.com/sunrisecapital"><span class="s2">Click Here</span

You're going to go broke, but then you bought all of these incredible deals and other people are going to see what you did and you're going to be able to go out and get investors for these properties. So, at some point, you will spend all of your liquidity, but if you're buying amazing properties, and other people see you're able to source deals, manage them, turn them over, and prove them, you're going to wind up with more investors than you know what to do with." </p> </div> <div> <p>"You have to have a developer's mindset to the property. In this competitive market, where commercial real estate is so highly valued, you have to come in like a developer thinking how are you going to improve the asset.

#306: Real Estate Through the Years, Investing During Recessions, and Much More! -with Larry Lieberman

<div> <p>Larry Lieberman is the president and founder of the Barrington Group. For more than 40 years, The Barrington Group's company philosophy has been to provide excellent quality maintenance service, good clean, well-manicured grounds, well-prepared apartments, friendly courteous professional staff members, and a genuine real concern for the health, safety, and well-being of their residents. <br /> The Barrington Group believes in long-term ownership. They do not "build and sell" or "flip" their properties; in fact, they still own and manage most of their original portfolio. <br /> An excerpt from their website, which I think will provide some additional context to the type of company Barrington is - "We know our residents, they know us…. we strive to have the same staff at a property year after year. Our residents are not subject to "new management" with changing rules and fewer quality standards. Because we are long-term owners, we must pay attention to keeping our properties in excellent physical condition…. to prevent them from aging… we spend considerable resources on keeping our properties beautiful. <br /> </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Quotes: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p>"There were companies out buying everything in sight, but we couldn't compete because we wanted cash flow absent of the tax benefits. We weren't players. We weren't out building and developing and buying because we couldn't compete with the tax credit mentality." </p> </div> <div> <p>"The basic components that we adhered to, to turn properties around in the '60s, was I believe in giving a good, well maintained and clean apartment for a reasonable price. And for which, I expect my rent, and I expect it on time. We adhere to that, and we'll do our part first so that you'll do your part second." </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Highlights: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p>5:22- Larry tells us about his background and how he found his way into real estate </p> </div> <div> <p>13:39- Larry shares how prior to 1987 he kept from falling into the trap of bad deals due to inflation </p> </div> <div> <p>18:53- Larry tells us about changes in his property management style that helped him manage his business more efficiently in the 60s after acquiring 2000 assets </p> </div> <div> <p>21:23- Larry shares the struggles he has faced in his career and how he has overcome them </p> </div> <div> <p>27:04- Larry tells us how he makes determinations in large rehab projects as to not over renovate </p> </div> <div> <p>30:40- Larry talks about the best-valued lifestyle commodities in communities </p> </div> <div> <p>32:27- Larry tells us about shifts and changes he's made due to COVID </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Guest Website: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p><a href="http://www.bgiapartments.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">http://www.bgiapartments.com/</a> </p> </div> <div> <p><a href="http://www.sunrisecapitalinvestors.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Learn About Investment and Partnership Opportunities with Kevin and His Team</a> </p> </div>

It's a great opportunity. We actually looked at this property in March and had it under LOI and not because of the Corona Virus, but because of property taxes here. Their property taxes tripled this year, so the underwriters couldn't underwrite it anymore so we had to drop it and things got mitigated and things got better, so we got the deal.

And, when those wells will likely be drilled based on recounts and activity from operators. Then, based on SEC reserves, we need to tie these future cash flows to a reserve category and risk them. At the end, you just add up all of those cash flows and you end up with the market value." </p> </div> <div> <p>"Diversify your portfolio with a lot of real estate investors and get some actual resources in there." </p> </div> <div> <p> </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Highlights: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p>4:27- Yoann gives us his background, tells us about landgate.com, and how it came about </p> </div> <div> <p>14:50- Yoann tells us the likelihood that landowners have some type of mineral or water under their land that increases the value and what the evaluation method looks like </p> </div> <div> <p>19:32- Yoann tells us how much accuracy he's able to tell how much oil can be exploited from a location that has never been drilled </p> </div> <div> <p>25:35- Yoann compares his services to buying gas stock </p> </div> <div> <p>31:31- Opportunities in solar and wind investments </p> </div> <div> <p> </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Guest Website: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p><a href="https://landgate.com/home" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://landgate.com/home</a> </p> </div> <div> <p><a href="http://www.sunrisecapitalinvestors.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Learn About Investment and Partnership Opportunities with Kevin and His Team</a> </p> </div>

Matt has extensive expertise in connecting passive investors to lucrative investment opportunities through syndications, private loans, and joint ventures. </p> <p> </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Quotes: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p>"With the smaller deals, it was easier in that sense because once they filled out the form, it's a smaller base, it's manageable. I can close in a day. With 85 investors, it's just more heads to manage. In some ways, it becomes like herding cats. You have to respect that when investors want to invest a significant amount of money with you, $50,000 is a ton of money. And so, they are going to want to discuss that with you. So, you have to set aside the time to have those calls. With larger raises, you have to set aside more time. " </p> </div> <div> <p>"Don't quit. When things get tough, don't quit. Just try on something new. Have faith, and just try something new to get you to where you want to go. When times get tough, it's not a time to drop your goals. It's a time to just try a different method to get there." </p> </div> <div> <p> </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Highlights: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p>4:02- Matt tells us about his background and how he got into real estate </p> </div> <div> <p>8:34- Matt talks about transitioning from a small or medium to larger assets </p> </div> <div> <p>15:32- Matt tells us about the steps he took to double his revenue </p> </div> <div> <p>20:27- Matt shares his methods </p> </div> <div> <p>23:41- Matt tells us about the changes he made to increase the number of investors that are interested </p> </div> <div> <p>44:45- Matt shares about changes in the way he runs his business as we roll through COVID. </p> </div> <div> <p> </p> </div> <div> <p><strong>Guest Website: </strong></p> </div> <div> <p>https://www.derosagroup.com/ </p> </div> <div> <p><a href="http://www.sunrisecapitalinvestors.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Learn About Investment and Partnership Opportunities with Kevin and His Team</a> </p> </div> <div> <p> </p> </div>
