#35: I Knew This Client Would Be a Success - 5,000 Units Later with Bob Bryenton
You have heard me say that I love this business and I love the people in this business. Meet one of my very first clients and now one of my very dearest friends. Bob Bryenton began his multifamily career with no units. I helped him get his first 36 and now he owns over 5,000 apartment units. What a story!
I started working with Bob Bryenton back when he was knee-high to a grasshopper and look at him now - one of the best success stories out of New Hampshire, myself included.
Listen to Bob as he talks about the multifamily business and how he went from zero to hero which means over 5000 apartment units in a very short time. I remember the first phone call I had with Bob many many years ago and even that I knew he would be a success in the business because he came to this business understanding it is all about sales and marketing. Join me on today’s podcast because I enjoyed it and I know you will too!

Power of the Cap Rate in Multifamily
There is one thing that sets the multifamily investing business apart from all others. That one thing is 'The Power of the Cap Rate'.
The way I teach multifamily is different than everything else, everyone else. Because what I say is, multifamily is not real estate. It is not real estate. Let me put it to you this way.
Let's say Dave owns a 100 apartment complex built in 1986. It has 60 one-bedrooms, 40 two-bedrooms, it has pitched roofs, separate entrances, individually metered. Great property. And Link owns an identical property across the street. Absolutely identical, built by the same builder. The fact that they're across the street has absolutely no meaning whatsoever on the difference in any value, okay? Location is the same. Whose property is more valuable? Link's, or Dave's?
So we're talking about real estate here guys. So, they're right across the street from each other, which one's more valuable?
Well, it depends upon the NOI with the cash, the...
