In today’s podcast episode we interview Andrew Davis, Director of Investor Relations for Passiveinvesting.com. Andrew’s team creates deep experience and intensive due diligence while creating intelligent real estate investments through the hottest multifamily real estate markets in the United States. Today’s topics in the podcast are focused on the fundamental shifts in the real estate markets. We will talk about interest rates, inflation rates, supply, demand, deal flows, and deal structures which will help Limited Partners make decisions in the ever changing market conditions.

Significant Changes on Deal Economics

Due to the high inflation rates, the FED is forced to increase interest rates on debts to forcefully slow down borrowing and will slow down the economy as a whole. According to Andrew, deal economics for LPs remain the same at 7% preferred return with 70% - 30% split to 13% internal rate of return. And the reason behind that is because they always land very conservatively in their deals. A sign of a great operator lies behind the consistent returns despite the fundamental shifts in the markets.
