Manage episode 361839329 series 3447408
Multifamily is one of the most popular asset classes in commercial real estate. Apartments are said to be one of the easiest product types to understand without the complexities of long-term leases that can come with office, retail, and industrial properties. But what does the underwriting process look like, and how do you actually determine what a multifamily property is worth? In this episode, we talk all about multifamily underwriting with Author, Speaker, and Founder of Lone Star Capital, Rob Beardsley.
