Real Estate Addicts

Marc Savatsky, Ray Hurteau, and Dan Rubin open up and discuss their own deals, budgets, and mistakes every Tuesday.

Not guru content. The stuff that decides whether a project makes money: what a triple decker really costs to build now, the retroactive Newton tax bill that landed on unsuspecting condo buyers, the helical pile surprise that cut a deal’s IRR from 70% to 40%, the eleven-week-old demo company doing $6K a week against a $20K burn. They read their own numbers on air, including the ugly ones.

A typical week is some mix of: a breakdown of one of their active projects (an 1874 adaptive reuse in Amesbury, a Dorchester three-family held fourteen years, a waste and demo business), a guest who does one thing extremely well which include zoning attorneys, architects, labor lawyers, energy consultants and brokers. Ray’s Multifamily Minute on the news that actually moves the needle, and a round of Overrated / Underrated / Appropriately Rated.

Heavy on Greater Boston and New England, because real estate is hyperlocal and pretending otherwise is how people lose money. Useful anywhere the same problems show up: permitting, capital stacks, subs, tenants, and the gap between what the spreadsheet says and what the building does.

For investors, developers, GCs, agents, and anyone still holding a W-2 while they figure out deal one.
