Is multifamily real estate investing as complicated as investors make it out to be? If you’re Andrew Cushman of Vantage Point Acquisitions, you’d probably argue that although multifamily has a bit more complexity than single-family rentals, it’s still, by all means, profitable for the everyday investor. In the early 2000s, Andrew didn’t know anything about pro formas, apartment underwriting, or the best type of mulch to use on large-scale landscaping. Now, more than a decade later, Andrew has been able to lead his team in acquiring, syndicating, and repositioning over 2,500 multifamily units. He’s here with David Greene to answer live questions surrounding anything and everything related to multifamily investing. He gives stellar takes on the current state of the market, how rising interest rates will affect multifamily investing over the next few years, and the best way to increase your ROI (return on investment) on a multifamily acquisition You don’t need to be a large-scale apartment investor to take away some golden nuggets from this episode. Even if you’ve never thought of investing in multifamily, Andrew frames multifamily in a way that’ll have you wondering, “could I buy that apartment down the street?” ~~~~ Join BiggerPockets for FREE: https://www.biggerpockets.com/signup?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Get Your Ticket to BPCon 2022: https://www.biggerpockets.com/bpcon2022?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Join the BiggerPockets Multifamily Bootcamp: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-investing-bootcamps?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Ask David Your Real Estate Investing Question: https://www.biggerpockets.com/david?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Work with Andrew’s Team at Vantage Point Acquisitions: https://www.vpacq.com/ ~~~~ Listen to Andrew’s Past Episodes: 170: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/2016-04-14-bp-podcast-170journey-flipping-houses-owning-1470-units-andrew-cushman?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none 279: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/bp-podcast-279-how-to-find-overlooked-opportunities-in-a-hot-market-with-andrew-cushman?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none 571: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/biggerpockets-podcast-571?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none 586: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-586?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Grab Matt’s Book “Raising Private Capital”: https://store.biggerpockets.com/products/raising-private-capital?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Invest with David on Future Deals: https://Investwithdavidgreene.com ~~~~ Connect with Andrew and David on BiggerPockets: Andrew: https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/andrewc58?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none David: https://www.biggerpockets.com/users/davidgreene24?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none ~~~~ Follow David on Instagram: @davidgreene24 or https://www.instagram.com/davidgreene24/ Episode #607 Show notes at: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-607?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=none 00:00 Intro 02:28 Quick Tip 04:25 5 Important Factors of Multifamily Investing 15:04 Multifamily Debt Structures 22:19 Syndication Investing Risks 24:35 The Problem with Pro Forma Calculations 37:44 Are Rising Interest Rates Affecting Multifamily? 41:19 How to Find Good Multifamily Deals 54:00 Become a Multifamily Master 55:18 Highest ROI Multifamily Improvements 01:15:11 Connect with Andrew!
