Jake & Gino: Real Estate Investing & Multifamily · 2026-08-17 · 47 min
Are the days of "go bigger, faster" in real estate over? In this episode of the Jake & Gino Podcast, Jake Stenziano and Gino Barbaro sit down with commercial real estate investor and host of Invest Beyond Multifamily, Ash Patel. Together, they pull back the curtain on why syndicators are losing tens of millions of dollars in the current market cycle, the danger of overpaying for deals based on speculative pro formas, and why cash-on-cash return - not IRR - is the ultimate metric for long-term wealth. Plus, Ash breaks down why retail and suburban office space are quietly offering massive, low-risk returns while everyone else is fighting over multifamily.
