In this week’s episode, I’m speaking with Sandhya Seshadri, a former electrical engineer who is now acquiring large multifamily in the competitive Dallas/Fort Worth market. Throughout this episode, we discuss what separates mediocre sponsors from great ones, the importance of effective operations, and what Sandhya learned from investing in another sponsor’s deal that went sideways. Additionally, we also talk about which assumptions within a model are actually driving projected return and what questions you should be asking your sponsors/potential partners. This is a great episode!
