  • Why This Might Be A Generational Buying Opportunity - E1153 - CFC
    Oct 23 2025

    Most people are sitting on the sidelines.

    But Chris Tourtellotte who’s built over 3,000 multifamily units and $1.5B+ in real estate is doubling down…

    Not on development.

    But on buying existing cash-flowing assets for 30-40% below replacement cost.

    In this episode of Cashflow Connections, Chris reveals why he’s calling this a once-in-a-decade buying opportunity and how he’s pivoted his billion-dollar firm to take full advantage of it.

    We cover:

    • The hidden math behind distressed multifamily deals
    • Why he’s bullish on storage (and how it complements residential)
    • His strategy for scooping up off-market deals from mom-and-pop owners
    • What he learned from raising a $300M storage venture
    • Why 2025 could be the best year to buy since 2010

    If you're wondering whether to wait or to strike, you need to hear this.

  • $1BN Fund Manager Talks Economic Investing Trends - E1151 - CFC
    Oct 16 2025

    Stocks near all-time highs. Inflation “tamed” (supposedly). AI euphoria everywhere.

    It feels like a Goldilocks moment.

    But according to Diego Parrilla, a fund manager overseeing $1BN+ in assets, this might be the most dangerous time in recent memory for investors who are asleep at the wheel.

    In this new episode, Diego explains why the biggest risk isn’t just market downside… it’s false confidence.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why fixed income may fail when you need it most
    • How “anti-bubbles” and tail-risk hedging can drive outsized gains
    • Why traditional 60/40 portfolios are built on outdated assumptions
    • And how to build a portfolio that thrives in volatility

    If you want to see how the pros are defending (and growing) capital in a fragile, inflationary world…
