In the wake of our changing market, inflation, and rising interest rates, some operators are hurting. At the same time, there are many investors who couldn’t be more excited about the future. Even in tough economic times, with the right investments, your portfolio can not only weather the storm, but grow–and today’s guest is living proof.

Rob Beardsley is a founder and executive at Lone Star Capital. Focused on workforce housing in Dallas and Houston, he’s done acquisitions of over 2,500 units. In his new book, Structuring and Raising Debt & Equity for Real Estate, he walks readers through various types of lenders, equity investors, and deal structures to create better investments and how to attract debt and equity partners. 

In our conversation, Rob and I get into what he’s done to protect his investments over the last year, important strategies that every operator needs to be thinking about right now (including how to spend your cash on hand), and what you need to know before you do your first syndication or joint venture with institutional capital at any level. 

Key Takeaways with Rob Beardsley

  • The importance of reading the fine print when doing debt deals.
  • The four types of investors–and the one Rob likes to work with most.
  • What you need to know before you underwrite your first deal.
  • When is the best time to renovate, and when is the worst time to do it.
  • How needing to sell or refi at the wrong time can do damage to your reputation–and how to de-risk your investments at every stage.
