Understanding the Business of Commercial Real Estate Investing Oct 02, 2019

Most of us are familiar with the idea of buying a home and renting a room or basement living space to pull in extra cash. Many are also familiar with the concept of owning and renting a secondary home.

But not nearly as much is known about what it would take to buy, renovate or develop multi-unit apartment building, an office building or hotel. In this episode of MYDM, Ben & Malcolm take a look at the lesser known world of commercial real estate investing.

On this episode of #MYDM, Ben & Malcolm welcome Maureen Murat, Esq. to help them explore the world of venture capital and the financing of early stage start-up companies.
