The Best Ever CRE Show

Matt Faircloth talks to Justin Goodin about how his background in underwriting for a bank gave him an insider's view of deal flaws and what the banks prioritize, mainly an exit strategy, rather than cash flow or ROI. You'll discover why focusing solely on unit count can distract you from the real value, the equity percentage, and the location. How a misstep in loan assumptions or over-optimistic projections can sink even the best deals. Justin emphasizes the importance of cautious scalability, why smaller deals often offer broader buyer pools, and how targeting off-market properties with postcards can uncover overlooked opportunities, even in a competitive market.

If you think you already understand real estate, this episode will challenge that assumption. Ethan makes a compelling case that marinas are one of the last truly inefficient asset classes left and that the opportunity is bigger, messier, and more interesting than most investors realize.
