Welcome to the CRE Clarity Podcast with Jeremy Goodrich. Our guest today is Jorge Abreu, multifamily investor with a portfolio across Texas and the Midwest.

“There is the age of the property and then the location. So you could have a C class property in a B or A location.“
01:00
Jorge began his real estate career by investing in value-add, C-class multifamily properties, eventually transitioning to higher-quality A-class assets. Now he manages thousands of properties.
According to him, it’s more risky to operate C-class properties because of the tenant base and a lot of deferred maintenance. In contrast, A-class properties offer a lower risk profile due to their higher quality and reduced maintenance requirements.
“When your investors are caught off guard when they think the property is running fine, that's the worst thing.“

Jorge is doing many syndications with passive investors. He recommends focusing on safer deals with good cash flow from the start and a solid return in 5 to 7 years instead of chasing high returns in risky 3-year deals.
Jorge shares how he’s navigating the current real estate market.
- He spends a lot of time in operations and pushing the NOI to make up for the current high expenses and interest rates.
- He brought property management in-house.
- He’s making sure to keep open communication with his investors.
“I'm kind of looking forward to this down part of the market, because there are many opportunities for those that are good at acquisitions, hunting for deals, and negotiating.”
21:05
Toward the end of the conversation, Jorge shares what he’s most excited about in the industry currently. While acknowledging concerns about uncontrollable expenses like insurance and property taxes, he also expresses excitement about a potential market downturn. He sees many opportunities in it.
Finally, Jorge shares one point of clarity with the listeners - if there's an issue in one of your deals, tackle it head-on, go after it, and get it done.
