WS2011 A Commercial Real Estate Storm is Coming with Scott Trench
Scott Trench, CEO of BiggerPockets, shares his first-hand experience losing money in real estate syndications - and what it teaches us about finding quality operators. He also looks at the commercial real estate market, predicting pain over the next 18 months. Here are some useful key insights from this episode:Avoid syndicators that diversify across many markets instead of specializing in one. Look for operators with proven long-term track records close to the properties.Thoroughly analyze a syndicator"s assumptions about rent growth, expenses, and exit cap rates.

Protect yourself by understanding these market forces. Tune in now to hear BiggerPockets insider"s unfiltered lessons on thriving through today"s syndication landmines and shifting market tides.
