Lots of big allocators raising megafunds these days. Not sure how they plan on deploying it all...but the road to mediocrity in commercial real estate investing is being too big to deploy advantageously. What i expect them to do is acquire platforms versus assets. Bon chance.

I loved listening to Beardy Brandon on BiggerPockets, and I respect that he is publicly admitting failure and being open about what happened. Most people would hide, spin, or disappear. He deserves credit for facing it. That said, I always thought a lot of the syndicated deals from the 2020-2022 era were way too aggressive. Part of that is personal history. I lived through 2008 in Las Vegas real estate. My dad also lost money in the S&L era and on apartments around 1980 because of balloon debt and forced refinance risk. So I have a deep bias against any deal where survival depends on a friendly refinance window. The fair distinction is: Unexpected: rents dropping 30% in a hot growth market like Austin. Knowable: floating-rate debt + short-term rate caps + a forced refinance window can become a death trap if rates spike. Inexcusable for a GP: raising third-party capital while not fully understanding the debt instrument that is supposed to protect the deal. That is not underwriting “every insane tail risk.” That is underwriting the core capital stack. A rate cap is not fixed-rate debt. It is temporary insurance. If the policy expires and replacement cost explodes exactly when you need it most, that risk was part of the deal from day one. The real mistake was stacking too many dependencies: rent growth, cap-rate stability, cheap cap renewals, available refinance debt, and LP patience. When all of those have to work, you are not just investing. You are threading a needle with other people’s money.

Something I’ve learned: The more that someone projects Christianity (especially in business), but their actions don’t align with the Biblical principles, the higher likelihood they are doing it to distract people from their true character & sins.

@BeardyBrandon @bobbyfijan ‘Cap rates will fall and we’ll exit faster’… fall from what to what? What’s your current exit assumption?

Real estate guru replies to a post directly mentioning BT. Calls out people for criticizing GPs. Then learns why people were criticizing the GP in the first place. Doesn't recant or change opinion. This is the guru grift in action.

@patefortworth My comment was a general comment because there are a few people getting bashed right now. Who said they didn’t know how a rate cap worked? I didn’t see that! Yeah, I’d be furious to read that.

@seandsweeney Just my $.02 but if a GP is very communicative and 100% honest, and then admits that they didn’t understand how a rate cap works, that’s gonna make me feel worse than if they had just stolen the money.

The trash in the private investment space at the smaller end is really insane. Between the credit and real estate deals, it’s hard to differentiate between wildly incompetent operations and outright fraud. Maybe put it this way: if you’re not making $1m+ in cash flow from your actual business or career yet, the best investment you can probably make is in yourself and your main business. Don’t try to invest your way to a $3–5m+ net worth through random private deals. That road is littered with skeletons.

The archetype of trust fund kid masquerading as industrialist who mentions their lineage and IQ is definitely a thing. If someone mentions both, it's an immediate red flag. If they use the word "polymath" to describe themselves- then it's a 3rd red flag.

Dear Apartment Cowboy, You bought at a five And prayed for a four, Raised rents thirty percent Then asked tenants for more. You danced with cheap debt While cap rates played dead, Now the equity’s gone And the LPs bled. In my day we bought blood, Not conference applause. Cash flow paid mortgages — Not podcast applause. A rate cap’s not magic, Nor leverage a friend. When the tide leaves the harbor, The tourists all end. And yes, credit for standing In front of the grave — But a captain doesn’t earn praise For not running away. Remember this lesson, Tattoo it in ink: The problem with genius Is leverage can think. -The Ghost of Sam Zell

I’d like to give Brandon Turner sincere credit for this post on IG. He fully owned up to the loss of LP capital publicly. Explained his responsibility, which is the most important, along with the market factors the affected the downfall of this deal. This is exactly how a sponsor should transparently communicate when something like this happens. It doesn’t make the loss of capital easier, but I have true respect for people that take ownership. The guru class has butchered the handling of their errors over the past 5 years. Brandon is the first one I’ve seen to step forward and address it. Credit where credit is due. Bravo.

Both he and sweaty startups guy took above market management and performance fees and fleeced investors whilst acting like they educated the little guy.
Kenneth Mooney@augustagarei

The celebration of @BeardyBrandon losing 15 million of investor money on a bad deal is weird. One thing I have noticed though is that a lot of the top tier professionals (@robbiehendricks and others) are not piling on. A lot of the guys who want to be like Robbie and others are piling on….. @sweatystartup shared a great article about crabs that feels extremely accurate for what is going on….. There is a lesson to be learned here I’m sure.

@Gordon_CRE The part that bugs me that most is how he was parading on and on about working 1 hour a day while he was losing his investors MILLIONS
