Relationship Capital, Property Scaling, and SOPs for Success ft. Ashley Garner

On this episode of Multifamily Mastery, John Casmon interviews Ashley Garner, a lifelong real estate investor who transitioned from student rentals and residential brokerage into multifamily investing. Ashley shares how a near-death health scare motivated him to scale his portfolio more aggressively, going from a 10-unit to a 196-unit property through strategic partnerships and capital raising. He explains the mindset shift required to leverage other people’s money and how relationships and trust are foundational to scaling effectively. The conversation also highlights Ashley’s operational philosophy, including managing third-party property managers and the importance of developing standard operating procedures (SOPs) as his business grows toward a goal of 1,000 units.
