Never Charge A Deposit Again? - E1146 - CFC Oct 02, 2025

Show notes

Most multifamily owners think deposits protect them from risk…

But what if the opposite is true?

In today’s episode, I sat down with Andrew Bowen, a 30-year multifamily veteran and housing advocate, who’s helping operators rethink the outdated deposit model.

He explains how a deposit alternative not only protects owners but also speeds up leasing decisions and boosts retention.

Why the traditional deposit model is broken (and costing you money)
How deposit alternatives can reduce bad debt while increasing occupancy
Why residents are more likely to renew under this new system
The operational mistakes that can ruin these programs if done wrong

Plus, Andrew shares how AI and predictive modeling are reshaping multifamily operations across the board.

If you own or operate apartments, this episode will challenge the way you think about deposits forever…

What Stagflation Might Mean For Multifamily - E1142 - CFC Sep 25, 2025

Show notes

When interest rates rise fast and inflation doesn’t cool off…
Most people just hope it ends soon.
But savvy investors?
They prepare for stagflation.

That’s why I sat down with Jake Clopton of Clopton Capital, who’s been in the trenches since the 2008 financial crisis, to talk through what stagflation could mean for multifamily assets.

Jake isn’t just making predictions—he’s a lender, insurance agency owner, and 1031 intermediary with direct access to the trends most operators aren’t paying attention to.

And in this episode, he drops truth bombs you won’t hear anywhere else…

In this conversation, we cover:

Why the Fed cutting rates could actually raise mortgage rates
How today’s cap rate projections are ignoring key bond market signals
Why insurance premiums are exploding (even in low-risk markets)
The hidden risk in relying on outdated lending strategies
And the reason Jake believes the next 12 months will divide winners and losers

If you’re holding multifamily—or plan to—this episode is required listening.

Capital Raising Compliance Before & After Your Raise - E1138 - CFC Sep 18, 2025

Show notes

Most syndicators think compliance starts after the deal is under contract.

They wait to bring in a securities attorney until the docs are needed…
But by then, it might be too late.

In this episode of Cash Flow Connections, I’m joined (for the third time) by Mauricio Rauld—one of the few attorneys who actually makes securities law fun to learn.

We break down:

The syndicator blind spot that can blow up your raise
Why social media could be your biggest compliance risk
How to choose between 506(b) and 506(c) before you even have a deal
The critical difference between “talking to investors” and “offering securities”
The one conversation that could protect you if your deal ever goes south
