Description

Ever feel overwhelmed after closing on a multifamily deal? Not sure where to start—or in what order—to execute your business plan effectively?

In this episode, I break down the five-step value-add process we follow after acquiring a multifamily property to our portfolio. Whether you're self-managing, have your property management firm or working with a third-party team, this framework helps you sequence improvements for maximum impact—operationally and financially.


Join us as we explore:

  • The very first thing to address before you even close on the property

  • Why tackling deferred maintenance and improving curb appeal should happen before pushing rents

  • How to build goodwill with tenants before issuing rent increases or implementing fees

  • The most strategic time to renovate and lease units for maximum rent bumps

  • The often-overlooked optimization layer that separates average operators from great ones.
