À propos de cet audio

Chris Lopez welcomes Seattle-based investor/author Leka Devatha to unpack how she built from flips to a diversified active/passive portfolio—plus what’s actually working in a high-cost, tenant-friendly market. Leka breaks down her first LP deal (why operator selection and interest-rate caps mattered), a 12-unit Seattle value-add that tripled gross rents, and the creative lending + multi-exit playbook behind her new book, Return on Real Estate. She shares a tactical framework for sourcing, underwriting, and operating in micro-markets—and how middle-housing zoning (ADUs, townhomes, duplexes) is shaping her 2026 pipeline. Key Takeaways Operator first: In 2021–22 vintage deals, disciplined sponsors with interest-rate caps, tight PM, and no fee-grab mentality have fared best. Value-add or bust (in HCOL markets): Buy below market due to deferred maintenance; renovate only what’s required to hit rent and NOI targets. Operations edge: Strict tenant standards, vigilant expense control, and local PM who understands tenant-friendly statutes are non-negotiable. Creative capital stack: Build a lender bench (conventional, DSCR, hard money) and use tools like short-term cash-out refis with no prepay to bridge seasonality. Micro-market focus: Know the streets, views, and comps; Seattle’s middle-housing rules unlock ADUs/townhomes/duplexes on former SF lots. Stack exits: Example—flip the front house, build/condo-map a DADU, keep as a long-term rental, refi to pull cash while holding quality dirt. Active → Passive: If you’re newer, learn by placing small LP checks with proven, local operators before scaling your own projects. Next 12–24 months: Fewer “easy” wins, but more mispriced opportunities for operators who can create value and manage tightly.
