BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast
Business:Investing
Commercial real estate has been teetering on the edge of crash territory for months now. With banks tightening their funding, forcing investors to refinance at higher rates and occupancy down across multiple sectors, commercial could be crashing very soon. But we aren’t here to prompt fear for real estate investing; instead, we’re presenting some opportunities to build wealth, even when most investors think the sky is falling.
To help give us a read on the whole commercial real estate situation is Willy Walker, CEO of Walker & Dunlop, one of the largest commercial real estate finance companies in the nation. Willy knows precisely what’s happening in the industry because he is the industry. As the third largest apartment lender in the US, valued at over $2 billion, Willy’s ability to forecast the commercial real estate market has helped Walker & Dunlop grow to new heights. And he has some news to share.
Willy touches on the “pain to come” for commercial real estate, why residential has stayed safe, big investors’ refinancing dilemma, and why banks are pulling out of lending for large assets. With commercial investors needing cash to fund their deals but failing to find it, everyday investors (just like you) could help fill the void and walk away with a sizable profit. If you want to fuel your wealth, not your fear, stick around!
In This Episode We Cover:
The impending commercial real estate crash and who’s in danger
Balloon loans, risky refinances, and why high mortgage rates have put investors in a tough spot
Residential vs. commercial real estate and why one can fall while the other holds strong
Private lending and how you can take advantage of banks pulling back from larger investments
Asset classes that could have the biggest opportunity if a crash hits
US debt and how increasing the debt ceiling will lead to unmanageable consequences
And So Much More!
