Why Multifamily Deals Don\u2019t Pencil Anymore (And Why That\u2019s a Huge Opportunity)","description":"Multifamily deals don\u2019t pencil the way they used to. If you\u2019ve been underwriting properties lately and wondering what changed, you\u2019re not alone. In this episode, Nico Salgado breaks down why multifamily deals that worked just a few years ago are falling apart today. Interest rates have jumped, lenders have tightened their standards, operating expenses have surged, and CapEx requirements are forcing investors to rethink their underwriting models. But this shift isn\u2019t necessarily bad news. In fact, it may be creating one of the best buying opportunities since the Great Financial Crisis.
