David Moghavem (CIO, Trion Properties) on Where Multifamily Investing Is Headed Next

The multifamily market has gone through one of the most significant corrections in decades. Rising interest rates, slowing rent growth, operational challenges, and tightening capital markets have forced operators to rethink how they invest.

In this episode of Investing in the U.S., Reed Goossens sits down with David Moghavem, Chief Investment Officer at Trion Properties, to discuss how one of the country's leading vertically integrated multifamily firms is navigating today's market.

With over $1.5 billion in assets under management and more than 6,000 apartment units, Trion has experienced multiple real estate cycles—from purchasing distressed assets after the Global Financial Crisis to today's focus on disciplined acquisitions and operational excellence.

Reed and David discuss why today's opportunity isn't simply about buying distressed deals—it's about identifying markets with strong long-term fundamentals, structuring investments with positive leverage, and operating assets better than the competition.

The conversation also explores why operational distress may become a much larger issue than capital stack distress, how investors should think about today's interest rate environment, and why the best opportunities may no longer be in the obvious Sun Belt markets.

Finally, David shares how Trion is leveraging artificial intelligence across acquisitions, underwriting, and portfolio management to create a competitive advantage that few real estate operators currently possess.

In this episode you'll learn:

• Why the current multifamily correction is unlike previous cycles
• The difference between capital stack distress and operational distress
• How Trion selects markets in today's environment
• Why positive leverage matters more than ever
• What investors should expect from interest rates over the next 12–24 months
• Why long-term real estate investing still creates exceptional wealth
• How AI is changing acquisitions, underwriting, and investment management

Whether you're an active syndicator, passive investor, or simply interested in the future of commercial real estate, this conversation offers valuable insights into where experienced operators see opportunity today.

How one multifamily operator is adapting to a prolonged market correction — and why rolling up CPA firms became the next logical move for RSN Property Group.

When multifamily deal flow slows to a grind, most operators wait. Reed Goossens went looking for a better use of his operator skills. In this episode, Gary Lipsky sits down with Reed — founder of RSN Property Group and host of the Investing in the U.S. podcast — to get into how he's managing through one of the most drawn-out corrections the sector has seen, and what led him to launch Accounting First Group, a CPA firm rollup targeting the fragmented, succession-gap-heavy accounting market.

Reed breaks down why 85,000 CPA firms — more than 60% owned by someone over 50 with no exit plan — represent a genuine platform-building opportunity, and how the same operational instincts that built his multifamily portfolio apply directly to acquiring and modernizing professional services firms. He also gets into the talent war that defines the space, how AI is set to disrupt the seasonal tax prep model, and why he's capping W2 exposure at 30–40% when underwriting acquisition targets.

On the multifamily side, Reed shares what the market actually looks like on the ground — rents still flat or slightly negative, institutional capital cautious, and a recovery that's been two to three years away for what feels like years. He covers where RSN is finding deals worth chasing, how they're using 1031 exchange structures to source larger checks from sophisticated investors, and why doubling down on existing investor relationships is the most underrated fundraising move in the current environment.

Key takeaways:

00:00 Intro

01:38 Why Reed launched a CPA firm rollup

03:43 The fragmentation opportunity in the accounting space

05:33 Talent as the real competitive edge in CPA acquisitions

07:33 How AI will reshape the accounting industry

10:03 Where the multifamily market stands today

12:13 Why this cycle feels worse than 2008

14:03 Finding deals in a bifurcated market

15:53 Expanding into new markets without losing operational discipline

18:18 How RSN structures 1031 exchange equity

When banks start calling to ask what you'd pay for a distressed asset, that's not a coincidence. That's the market telling you something.

This episode is hosted by Reed Goossens. We're joined by Marcin Drozdz, managing partner of M1 Real Capital, who has spent 18 years raising nine figures of private capital and acquiring over 1,600 units across the US.

Marcin lived through the 2008 crash from inside a private equity firm on day one — the same day Lehman Brothers collapsed. In this conversation, he draws a direct line between what he saw then and what's unfolding in commercial real estate today, from overleveraged assets and extend-and-pretend lending to the distressed opportunities he believes are coming.

We get into why banks are already making quiet calls to buyers, what replacement cost investing means in today's construction environment, the 5 million housing unit gap that never got filled, and why the buyers who move while others are frozen will look very smart in a few years.

If you're trying to make sense of where we are in the cycle and how to position for what comes next, this episode gives you the historical context and the practical framework to do it.

Let's dive in!

Key Takeaways:

04:00 Witnessing Lehman Brothers collapse firsthand 

04:40 Building during COVID and launching the mentorship side

Real estate sponsor decisions can make or break your entire investment. A good sponsor can navigate a bad situation. A bad sponsor can blow up a perfectly good deal.

This episode is co-hosted by Ben Gray, partner and CEO at RSN Property Group. We’re joined by Brian Burke, founder and CEO of Praxis Capital and author of “The Hands-Off Investor”. 

With more than 30 years of experience, Brian has operated through multiple market cycles and acquired over a billion dollars in real estate. He’s seen the run-ups, the corrections, and exactly what happens when deals are built on shaky foundations.

In this conversation, he shares what actually matters when evaluating a real estate sponsor in today’s environment.

We break down the key things you need to look for when evaluating a sponsor and how to avoid the costly mistakes that many investors make. We talk about the right questions to ask, the sponsor’s track record you should focus on, and why a sponsor’s debt strategy and capital stack can shape the entire outcome of a deal.

If you’re investing passively or thinking about it, this episode will give you a checklist to confidently vet a real estate sponsor and protect your capital.

Key Takeaways:

We break down the key things you need to look for when evaluating a sponsor and how to avoid the costly mistakes that many investors make. We talk about the right questions to ask, the sponsor’s track record you should focus on, and why their debt strategy could make or break your returns.

What if a market crash isn’t a setback… but your biggest opportunity yet?

Today on the show, I have the pleasure of chatting with a good friend of mine, Bruce Fraser. Bruce serves as Managing Partner at Elkhorn Capital Partners, with over 20 years of experience and close to $1 billion in assets under management. He brings a fresh, disciplined, and macro-driven perspective to real estate investing that’s rare to come by these days. 

He shares his story of navigating the 2008 crash by getting out before things got ugly and reentering with a focus on distressed acquisitions and value-add multifamily strategies. He explains how the same macro principles are guiding his investment strategy today. 

We also talk about what’s really driving inflation, why government debt is pushing us toward long-term currency debasement, and how Bruce is staying ahead of the curve by focusing on distressed multifamily assets in Oklahoma. He’s got a seriously disciplined approach and breaks down why being well-capitalized and hyper-local can make or break you in a tight market.

Curious how top investors are positioning themselves for what’s coming next and how to win big even when the market’s crashing? This episode is for you!

Let’s jump right in.

Key Takeaways: 

• 00:00 Intro 
• 01:53 Bruce’s background

What if a real estate downturn isn’t a threat... but your best shot at scaling?

Today on the show, I have the pleasure of chatting with August Biniaz, co-founder and Chief Investment Officer of CPI Capital, a cross-border real estate investment firm that helps Canadian and US investors access multifamily and build-to-rent opportunities in the US. With more than $225 million in transactions under his belt, August shares how he not only kept the lights on through one of the toughest real estate markets in recent memory, but actually expanded CPI’s footprint.

We dissect how CPI navigated rising interest rates, frozen deal flow, and inflation by pivoting to the build-to-rent model and launching a unique Mutual Fund Trust structure for Canadian investors to use their retirement funds (tax-free) in US real estate. August also opens up about CPI’s capital-raising engine, building lean operations, and the lessons he’s learned while growing a firm in uncertain times.

If you're wondering how to grow a real estate business while everyone else is pulling back, this one’s for you.

Let’s get into the show.

Today on the show, I’ve got the pleasure of chatting with Joe Arias, a distinguished real estate investor, entrepreneur, author, mentor, and public speaker who’s made a name for himself flipping houses, wholesaling properties, building rental portfolios, and diving into multifamily.
