Description

Think you know how to underwrite? Think again.

In Episode 253, I’m breaking down the real fundamentals of multifamily underwriting—what actually matters, what most people miss, and how to stop being emotional and start being objective.

You’ll learn:

  • The key metrics that matter most (and why)

  • How to build a realistic pro forma (not just a fairy tale)

  • Why most deals don’t pencil—and how to spot the ones that do

  • How I underwrite deals using my own proprietary model

Whether you’re still fumbling with napkin math or already analyzing deals weekly, this episode will sharpen your underwriting game—fast.
