Michael discusses future acquisition strategies with an apartment buyer. Michael has concerns about ownership focus and time management when looking to diversify into other markets. Most larger apartment markets have buying opportunities within their markets. Unfortunately, many potential buyers don’t focus on a specific market to get an in-depth relationship with listing agents, local management companies and vendors (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and tend to bounce from one market to another. That can be challenging for apartment operators that need efficiency.
Lane Beene is with Pilot Properties and owns almost 700 apartment units. This recently retired Lt. Colonel graduated from the US Air Force Academy and flew combat F16’s for over 28 years. Less than 15 years ago, he started with one single family home and turned that into a large multi-million dollar apartment portfolio…all during the time he was serving in the military. He is direct. He is smart. You need to listen to him if you are new to real estate investing.

He gives you a realistic takeaway on rates of returns that investors should expect when investing in class B & C apartments in north Texas.
