266: Sam Bates on The Value of Build-to-Rent Communities
2022-03-29
Even with interest rates going up and the economy seeming to be tapped out, we’re still bullish on housing–especially apartments, multifamily, and build-to-rent communities. These properties are proving to be great investments, especially for first deals, and you’re all but guaranteed to find renters for years to come.
For this conversation, I’m excited to be talking with Sam Bates. Sam is the CEO of Bates Capital Group. Since 2009, he’s been directly involved in acquisitions, repositions, dispositions, and sales of over $200 million in assets.
His portfolio currently has 1,035 units in Texas and the Southeast, with 1,100 units in the development pipeline. He recently bought a property for $16 million, added a couple of million dollars in upgrades and now it’s valued at $32 million!
Today, Sam joins the podcast to talk about his recent wins, why he bought into a company focused on single-family build-to-rent (and how it makes him money), and his advice for anyone that is looking to get into single-family or multifamily investing.
Key Takeaways with Sam Bates
- Why build-to-rent communities are satisfying renters’ needs.
- How he evaluates build-to-rent deals in both single and multifamily units.
- Why it makes sense for new investors to start as a limited partner before entering into a general partnership.
- How to manage properties and oversee investments.
- Why the United States is becoming a renter nation–and why we’re so bullish on multifamily in syndications.
