A major commercial real estate syndication just collapsed, and $30 million worth of investors are going to lose their money. Other syndications are struggling to stay afloat…issuing capital calls and freezing distributions to investors.

To understand what's driving this wave of failures, I reached out to Ryan Caldwell CCIM®, CPM®, Co-Founder and CEO of Resolute RDM and an 18-year veteran of commercial real estate investment and development.

What You'll Discover In This Episode

• The one question that separates good real estate deals from disasters

• How underwriting assumptions made years ago affect syndications today

• Why the best capital-raisers are struggling right now

• The "pretend and extend" dynamic reshaping distressed commercial RE

• The two paths the Federal Reserve could take interest rate policy

• What it takes to find deals that survive rough times
