JF 4109: Industrial Tailwinds, Multifamily Cycles, and The Future of LP Investing ft. Soren Godbersen
Description
Pascal Wagner interviews Soren Godbersen, exploring the evolution of real estate crowdfunding, how platforms vet deals, and why LPs should understand platform incentives before investing. Soren breaks down the differences between aggregator platforms and vertically integrated operators, sharing lessons from his decade at EquityMultiple and his new work at Lightstone Direct. The two discuss LP psychology in today’s environment, platform vs. direct-to-operator due diligence, and why asset class selection and fee transparency matter more than ever. It’s an inside look at how deals get filtered, what red flags LPs should spot, and how investors can sharpen their decision-making in a confusing market.
