ASK MIKE MONDAYS - “Michael, when you first got into multifamily- What was the biggest MISTAKE you made?

Michael explains the LARGEST and COSTLIEST mistake he made in buying multifamily: mismatching his mortgage debt with his business plan. The future is not clear- so you must use past experiences to make future business decisions. Michael thought choosing a longer-term fixed rate loan, with the expectations of interest rates rising in the future, would be a prudent business decision. Unfortunately, it was not. His loan was 10 years…but his business plan was to only keep the property for 3-5 years. Rates remained low and the loan came with a significant prepayment penalty called yield maintenance when they went to sell the apartment building. If he had chosen a shorter loan term with a less onerous pre-payment penalty… he would have saved millions. HE WON’T DO THAT AGAIN!

ASK MIKE MONDAYS - “Michael, what’s going on in 2021 multifamily today? It STILL seems CRAZY!”

If you are new or a seasoned apartment investor, Michael explains what he sees in the multifamily market. Low interest rates, higher occupancy, and even higher monthly rents with falling cap rates are making this market whacky. Can it be sustained? Well…probably not…but a lot of capital continues to flow into the market. In some of these markets, we have seen a 30% increase in apartment values.
