In this episode, Jonathan Farber interviews Jason Yarusi on his road from a simple desire to reclaim his time to managing over 800 units. Jason is a large multifamily syndicator based in New Jersey. In this episode, we get into topics like: scaling from small to large multifamily, difficulties from large multifamily deals, why to focus on select markets, and more!


Top Takeaways:


Transitioning from small to large multifamily - 10:30 - 13:00

Bigger is not necessarily scarier

The bigger the building, the smaller the problem one vacancy becomes

As the property gets bigger, the scale of savings and efficiencies scales as well

The biggest challenges posed by large multifamily real estate - 13:30 - 17:15

The biggest mistake that overwhelms investors is trying to take it all on at once

The more specific you are in your deal search, the better your results will turn out

If you limit your market to a few neighbourhoods, you’ll quickly master that market

The benefits of specializing your team - 18:30 - 20:00

If your team is already established, it can save you enormous headache in finding the right deals

If you’re finding all your deals yourself, you likely don’t have the knowledge across several markets

Even if a market fizzles out, you’ve just proven a process and eliminated a zone from your search
