    MB537: The Multifamily Boom Is Over. Here’s What Comes Next — with Lane Kawaoka
    2026/08/17
    In this episode, Michael Blank reconnects with multifamily investor and capital raiser Lane Kawaoka to take a hard look at what has changed in commercial real estate since the market peak—and where the opportunities may be today. After investing in more than 10,000 multifamily units and returning more than $45 million to investors, Lane shares lessons from navigating both the boom years and the subsequent market correction. They discuss shifting investor sentiment, conservative underwriting, emerging and tertiary markets, diversification beyond multifamily, and why the quality of the operator matters more than ever. Lane also explains how building relationships outside of real estate has helped him discover opportunities in other asset classes and why today's market may reward investors who are willing to think differently while staying disciplined.Key TakeawaysThe Investor Mindset Has ChangedThe FOMO-driven investing environment of 2021–2022 has been replaced by more sophisticated investors focused on diversification, risk, and long-term wealth creation.Conservative Underwriting Matters More Than EverToday's higher interest rates, elevated insurance and taxes, and limited cash flow leave little room for aggressive assumptions. Investors need to underwrite deals based on what they know—not what they hope will happen.The Best Opportunities May Be in the "Boring" MarketsMarkets that avoided the massive development and price run-ups of the Sun Belt may offer more stability and less competition as investors search for the next wave of opportunity.The Operator Can Matter More Than the Asset ClassWhen investing outside your area of expertise, the key isn't becoming an expert in every industry—it's finding proven operators with strong track records, especially through difficult market cycles.Diversification Doesn't Mean Abandoning Your Core StrategyInvestors can continue building expertise in multifamily while selectively exploring complementary asset classes, businesses, private equity, self-storage, or other opportunities.Build Relationships Before You Need ThemExpanding your network beyond traditional real estate circles can open doors to new operators, industries, and investment opportunities—but building that trust takes years, not weeks.Connect with Lane KawaokaThe Wealth Elevator: https://thewealthelevator.comEmail: Lane@TheWealthElevator.comFor Deal Submissions: Lane mentioned that he is open to reviewing deals from operators with more than $1 billion in assets.Connect with our Deal Maker PartnersCheck out all Partners hereAttorney - Swafford Law LLC Asset Manager - Cyndee Harding, High Caliber MultifamilyCPA - James Bohan, Stonehan AccountancyMentor - Deal Maker MentoringResourcesConnect with Michael BlankTheFreedomPodcast.com Join the Deal Maker MastermindExplore Michael’s Mentoring ProgramReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsGet the Syndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session537/

  • MB538: How to Build a Private Lending Fund After Flipping Houses and Investing in Syndications - with Will Harvey

    MB538: How to Build a Private Lending Fund After Flipping Houses and Investing in Syndications - with Will Harvey
    2026/08/24
    In this episode, Michael Blank welcomes back Will Harvey, founder and managing partner of Harvey Capital, to explore his evolution from multifamily investor and mortgage professional into the private lending business. After leaving his W-2 job to pursue real estate full time, Will discovered that he enjoyed the finance side of investing far more than the operational side—and eventually built a private lending business focused on asset-backed loans. Will explains how the private lending model works, why he prefers lending against real estate rather than owning it, how he raises capital through a fund structure, and how he protects investor capital through conservative underwriting. The conversation also dives deep into how Will is using AI to transform everything from underwriting and Google Ads to lead generation and investor outreach, offering a fascinating look at how technology can dramatically increase the scale and efficiency of a real estate business.Key TakeawaysPrivate Lending Can Provide Real Estate Exposure Without Owning the PropertyWill explains why he prefers lending against real estate rather than dealing with tenants, contractors, renovations, and property operations—and how lenders can earn attractive interest while maintaining a secured position.Protecting Capital Starts With Conservative UnderwritingThe goal isn't to take back properties when borrowers default. It's to structure loans with enough margin of safety that the investment remains protected even when something goes wrong.Fund Structures Can Reduce Concentration RiskRather than putting all of an investor's money into a single loan, Will prefers a fund model that spreads capital across multiple loans and borrowers.AI Is Transforming Real Estate UnderwritingWill uses Claude Code to analyze borrowers, verify their track records, review financial statements, research potential red flags, and produce detailed underwriting briefs—allowing his team to process significantly more volume.AI Can Turn Marketing Data Into Actionable InsightsBy feeding Google Ads reports into Claude, Will can quickly identify which campaigns, keywords, locations, and time periods are performing best, dramatically accelerating a process that previously took weeks of manual analysis.AI Is Opening New Doors for Capital RaisingWill is using AI to identify potential investors through public property records, including people who own real estate through self-directed retirement accounts, creating targeted lists that would have previously required significant manConnect with Will HarveyWebsite: Harvey CapitalEmail: will@harvey-capital.comConnect with our Deal Maker PartnersCheck out all Partners hereAttorney - Swafford Law LLC Asset Manager - Cyndee Harding, High Caliber MultifamilyCPA - James Bohan, Stonehan AccountancyMentor - Deal Maker MentoringResourcesConnect with Michael BlankTheFreedomPodcast.com Join the Deal Maker MastermindExplore Michael’s Mentoring ProgramReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsGet the Syndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session538/

  • MB539: How to Turn Podcast Appearances Into Capital, Credibility, and Deal Flow - with Trevor Oldham

    MB539: How to Turn Podcast Appearances Into Capital, Credibility, and Deal Flow - with Trevor Oldham
    2026/08/31
    In this episode, Michael Blank sits down with podcasting and marketing expert Trevor Oldham to reveal how real estate operators and syndicators can use podcasts to build credibility, generate leads, and ultimately raise more capital. Trevor, who has helped book more than 10,000 podcast appearances for over 500 clients, explains why getting on the biggest shows isn't necessarily the goal—the right audience is. They break down how to identify podcasts that reach your ideal investors, build a simple funnel to capture leads, use automation to follow up, and turn one podcast appearance into multiple marketing touchpoints. Michael and Trevor also discuss why podcasting is a long-term strategy, how the capital-raising environment has changed, and why operators should build their marketing platform before trying to scale their lead generation.Key TakeawaysThe Right Podcast Matters More Than the Biggest PodcastA smaller show with a highly targeted audience can generate far more valuable investor relationships than a massive show with the wrong listeners.Build the Funnel Before You Generate LeadsBefore appearing on podcasts, have a professional website, a clear call to action, a lead magnet, and a way to capture and nurture prospects. Otherwise, you're creating attention without having a system to convert it.Podcasting Is a Long-Term Capital-Raising StrategyUnlike paid advertising, podcasting can take weeks or months to produce results. But consistently appearing on two to four relevant shows per month allows the exposure and credibility to compound over time.Your Story Builds More Trust Than Your Track RecordInvestors don't just want to hear about your assets under management or projected returns. Sharing how you got started, what went wrong, and how you overcame challenges makes you more relatable and trustworthy.Don't Skip One-on-One Capital RaisingMichael emphasizes that aspiring syndicators should first learn how to build trust and understand investors through personal conversations before trying to amplify their message online.Turn One Podcast Appearance Into Multiple TouchpointsWith landing pages, LinkedIn outreach, email follow-up, social media engagement, and personalized messages, one interview can become the starting point for an entire investor acquisition campaign.Connect with Trevor OldhamPodcasting You: podcastingyou.com/podcastsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorjoldhamConnect with our Deal Maker PartnersCheck out all Partners hereAttorney - Swafford Law LLC Asset Manager - Cyndee Harding, High Caliber MultifamilyCPA - James Bohan, Stonehan AccountancyMentor - Deal Maker MentoringResourcesConnect with Michael BlankTheFreedomPodcast.com Join the Deal Maker MastermindExplore Michael’s Mentoring ProgramReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsGet the Syndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session539/
