Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow with Kevin Bupp

Two overlooked “levers” helped Kent Ritter scale past 1,000 multifamily units—and most operators have never even thought of them. One helps you keep tenant turnover low, slashes your CapEx costs by 30%, and keeps your cash flow flowing. The other allows you to build properties for cheaper, do less capital raising, and get on the local government’s good side.

Even if you’ve heard of these tactics, you probably haven’t tried them.

Today, Kent Ritter from Hudson Investing discusses two strategies most operators overlook: in-house property management and public-private partnerships (P3s).

First, Kent gives one of the best arguments for self-managing your assets: it keeps tenants for longer, creates more durable cash flow, and has massively lowered his expenses. Plus, he shares a new AI tool that is speeding up leasing and keeping his staff costs near rock-bottom.

Next, the $2,000,000+ benefit Kent’s team is receiving from public-private partnerships (P3). These P3 partnerships allow him to build with less pushback, raise capital faster (and easier), and bring positive change to the cities he’s investing in, further pushing up his property values.

With 3,500 mobile home units under management, Andrew Keel is an expert at “forcing” value and “manufacturing” cash flow even from underperforming assets. He’s so dedicated to making each mobile home park investment work that he’s even lived on-site (with his family) to ensure value is being added from the second he closes. 

Through infill, diligent operations, and crucial fixed-rate debt, Andrew has been able to grow his portfolio at a time when many operators are forced to give up theirs. This wasn’t by luck, but by design, and Andrew’s advice can help any investor, whether investing in mobile home parks or other assets, add value, increase cash flow, and succeed in secondary and smaller markets. 

Andrew says two things can increase your cash flow, and three things can kill a deal quickly. If you get a few of these wrong, your NOI can evaporate, but thankfully, they’re not hard to spot.

Passive investing in mobile home parks? Andrew tells you exactly what to look for in an operator to ensure they’ll be able to pull off what their pro forma plans call for.

Two levers that can increase cash flow (significantly) on your next acquisition 

The right way to infill a mobile home park, and whether new homes or used homes are worth it

This could be one of the highest ROI strategies in real estate, yet most investors ignore it.

Imagine getting hundreds of thousands of dollars in write-offs, saving tens of thousands in taxes, all while you own income-producing, equity-building real estate. Most investors think they know what we’re talking about in today’s show, but if they did, they’d be jumping at the chance to use it.

It’s no secret—cost segregation studies can become one of the most profitable weapons in your real estate investing arsenal. If you think your property is too small, too old, or too cheap to use one, Kim Lochridge, Executive Vice President for Engineered Tax Services, plans to prove you wrong.

Kim and her team conduct over 800 cost segregation studies a month on properties ranging from five-figure rentals to multimillion-dollar assets. She’s answering every question: What is a cost segregation study? How much does a cost segregation study cost? How much can you write off? Plus, why passive investors can unlock a treasure trove of paper losses, even if they’re still working a W-2 job.

That’s not all. Kim shares the most tax-advantaged assets investors can’t ignore, and the audit red flags she learned from a nightmare encounter with the IRS. 

This isn’t just about saving on taxes; this is about unlocking tens of thousands in tax savings that materially improve cash flow.

Insights from today’s episode:

Cost segregation studies explained: what they are, how much they cost, and who can use them

The five most tax-advantaged assets with massive bonus depreciation potential 

Audit red flags and an easy way to protect yourself from the IRS

Everyone plans to “buy the dip” until it’s time to write the check.

Multifamily opportunities are rising, and with properties 20%+ off the peak of pricing, investors are getting flooded with “deals.” But, like we learned over the past five years, the wrong sponsor (even with the right deal) can kill your returns and blow up the wealth you spent so long to build. 

So, how do you spot the opportunities vs. the landmines in multifamily? We brought on fund of funds manager, Lon Welsh, to share his sponsor-vetting checklist. 

With decades of experience in real estate investing, launching his capital fund in 2022 could have been disastrous (rising interest rates, rent growth freezes, expanding cap rates), but to this day, Lon has over a 90% success rate across funds within his own fund. This wasn’t done by guessing or gut-checks, but carefully choosing the right sponsor for the right deal.

Today, Lon shares his own sponsor-vetting checklist, how he personally confirms a deal is worth getting into, the best multifamily markets in the country with easing supply, low regulation, and strong demand, and how to ensure a sponsor was intentional, not lucky, in achieving their past successes. 

Plus, we even get Lon’s multifamily prediction for 2026-2027.

Insights from today’s episode:

How to vet a multifamily sponsor before putting a dollar into their deal

Why a “fund of funds” could be the more diversified, safer bet than real estate syndications 

What to look at to ensure a sponsor wasn’t just “lucky” during past deal cycles 

The best places to invest in multifamily right now (2026) where supply is about to drop off

This could be commercial real estate’s “buy of the decade,” according to a 35-year investing veteran. This asset class is seeing rock-bottom prices, shrinking supply, and acquisitions at a quarter of replacement cost.

Everyone says this asset is dead, so why are expert investors, lenders, and brokers betting on it?

Michael Bull, founder & CEO of Bull Realty, Inc., has personally overseen over $8 billion in commercial real estate transactions in his 35 years in the industry. He’s seeing sentiment shift toward one forgotten asset class office space investing. Office investments are seeing supply get actively demolished, but lending and buying are returning, and some cities are even seeing more office demand. 

The media is saying it’s all doom and gloom, but on the ground, Michael is seeing something very different.

Want to buy when the fear is still high, but prices are touching bedrock? Michael shares his underwriting playbook for finding valuable office investments, what savvy operators are doing with outdated office vintages (demolish, rebuild, or retrofit?), and the markets with the most opportunity for demand. Plus, the exact type of tenant that is giving those who invest in office space consistent revenue and unmatched peace of mind.

Insights from today’s episode:
